Meta is installing new tracking software on U.S.-based employees’ computers ​to capture mouse movements, clicks and keystrokes for use in training its artificial intelligence models, part of a broad initiative to build AI agents ‌that can perform work tasks autonomously, the company told staffers in internal memos seen by Reuters.

I'm pretty sure the EU won't let them pull this off with their EU employees. And the US will do absolutely nothing to protect their citizens that are employees of Meta. Disgusting behaviour from Meta, there's absolutely no bottom for them.

    This is nothing compared to their enablement of the Rohingya genocide. In terms of less horrific, but still impactful crimes their recent premeditated promotion of scams to gain revenue on commissions ($16 B in a year) is also worth mentioning.

    But the enablement of the Rohingya genocide really does make one wonder if exceptions need to be made with respect to state use of capital punishment (which I generally do not support, but I can see the need for exceptions such high treason during war and crimes against humanity).
