“This headline would worry me if I owned any”
You *do* own BTC, so this must mean you’d be worried if you owned any of the new ones. Why? Because there’s hype?
remarkeable how amazon reports on how great it’s own voice assistants are using the washington post. the conflicts of interst are so ridiculous and openly notorious.
we are essentially living in the open corporate state and it is tolerated and encouraged. conflicts of interest are a badge of accomplishment because it shows you have bought your piece of the media pie to disseminate your version of reality………..
washington post blech…….the absolute worst……..
