How modern tech segregates success and upholds old world discrimination
There are many ways in which so called "algorithms" can be created to carefully determine who succeeds on the apps and platforms we use every day. As governments have lost their grip on technology in the midst of aging and non-technical oversight, we as entrepreneurs and consumers are incr...

A basic bill of rights for musicians in the age of streaming
As we already know, we're in the midst of a writer and actor's strike, due to the intense burden the modern streaming era has placed upon their industry over the past years... Long before that, music was streamed online, in many cases, musicians flocked to streaming first, as it often helped them to...

How can we counter idea theft and stolen credit in the age of AI?
I've posted opinion pieces here and many other places online a few times and quickly noticed paraphrased clones of my ideas sometimes emerge soon after (that subsequently reach the front pages on some sites more than I'd like to discover as well) I also post here because the stats on viewership here...

Addressing and navigating the current hellish landscape of "ExtortionWare"...
Extortion is the practice of obtaining benefit through coercion. Racketeering is the act of acquiring a business through illegal activity, operating a business with illegally-derived income, or using a business to commit illegal acts. Now it may seem to most people that software applications these d...

Our phone numbers... The ultimate ID for covert info harvesting.
It may seem to be a minor thing, but there's a reason why your phone number is required for many sites now, even when they don't really need to have that information. About 4-6 years ago, the need for MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) was imposed upon many for using applications in order to ensure a...

Twitter switches to a paid service model next month, neutering unpaid accounts
Elon Musk just announced that the old system of Twitter verification will go away on April 1st, 2023... And that all accounts that don't pay his (relatively new) 8 dollar a month subscription fee will be invisible on Twitter's main information feed (killing general public visibility of non-paying ac...

The music you can't hear...
There is literally a ton of music you've never heard before, and these days, it's getting much harder to find... From when our first tune was uploaded in 2018 until now (as we have over 45 songs in our catalogue) we've only had around 5,000 collective streams total on our music on Spotify. It's almo...

Self promotion on social media apps like reddit is discouraged and banned likely in support of an underbelly of grifting
Self promotion (by musicians and entertainers unless they're already famous) is looked down upon and even banned on pretty much most popular web spots where it would thrive with a bit of proper moderation, and I think it's mind boggling, how every other subreddit allows users to post their self/comp...

Sounds grim doesn't it? The saying that "50% (of any fraction thereof) business are doomed to fail no matter what you do" is grim in itself, especially when contrasted with volumes of get rich and positive business motivation videos you're pelted with every time you go on LinkedIn or TikTo...

I'm not very invested into the future of Ai via text yet
Text allows for a certain degree of fakery or deception to be upheld in communication online with strangers... This is what drives my apprehension and aversion of enthusiasm for chat GPT and other solutions like it lately... As the all too popular schemes of Crypto and NFTs subside, it seems like th...
