  • Probably from the Microsoft 365/Teams/Outlook/whatever profile which can include who’s your manager, or potentially from Outlook emails. From what I can tell, Microsoft’s been trying hard to shove copilot in any of their systems, like AAD/Entra.

    My company has recently migrated their emails to it and as an admin I was very surprised that you can just read any email in full in any mailbox from “regular” functionality like email trace or antispam. I have no idea how that’s GDPR compliant - in my other jobs we were using Google Workspace which only shows metadata because of that, and accessing another person’s mailbox by other means (e.g. resetting the password on an ex-employee account) was a huge no-no





  • An agreeable position if those opinion pieces were written in good faith by a respectable journalist who knows what they’re talking about. Honest opinions are never wrong.

    But in today’s news it’s just a way to publish straight-up misinformation and propaganda, they can just abuse their position to just say whatever and people internalise it because, well, it’s the news.

    Journalists and news outlets used to depend upon a reputation of integrity and factuality built over the years. Now anyone can open up their “news” website, or be a politically motivated party with lots of resources, claim completely made-up stuff, and when those articles reveal themselves to be complete bullshit, nothing happens.

    Also, the world seems to really have lost the conception of what is a fact vs what is an opinion, a deduction, a belief, and so on. Guess the nature of Internet communication doesn’t help with that.
