Glad fredag! Här kommer en liten gåva från mig.
Jag behöver allt oftare skapa QR-koder och har ett eget verktyg för det. Då slipper jag vara beroende av att skapa konton och undviker spårning. Nu kan du fritt använda min tjänst också. Direkt och utan konto. Kanske kan det bli lite helgpyssel att sätta up QR-koder där hemma. Funktionen för att skapa en QR-kod för Wifi-nätverket är till exempel väldigt smidig.
Tjänsten låter dig också lägga en liten bild eller logotyp mitt i koden. Det är coolt, men det funkar inte alltid jättebra med bilder - så testa alltid din kod med din egen mobilkamera innan du laddar ner den.
När du skapar länkar med QR-koder finns förstås ingen gräns för kreativiteten. Berätta gärna vad du, dina kollegor eller familjemedlemmar skapar.
Koden kan du ladda ner i PNG-format (vanlig bild) eller SVG, ett vektorformat som du kan förstora utan att det blir suddigt.
Trevlig helg!
First day of the autumn it was dark outside when I left home and will be dark again by the time I get home. 🌕
Lovely conversation between two of the world's best tech journalists. Don't worry, it's about far more than Facebook.

@Loukas_RS And as we progress, the ability to opt out is ever more distant.
Modern day marketing strategy where employees are asked to to post support for their company or a colleague on their personal LinkedIn feeds, and then behind the scenes all employees are told to go like that post.
Are we having fun yet? 😬

Imagine being the person called up by your superior, asking why you haven’t liked the latest post by a colleague. And that colleague happens to be someone who is inappropriately flirting with you in direct messages. Liking the post could encourage that behavior…
…and that’s just one way this goes sideways. Spend some time with this problem space and there are many ways this can qualify as abuse of power. Perhaps a discussion topic for the next marketing meeting.
Never thought I’d say this but buying print and tv ads at least didn’t put pressure on employees to act as vehicles for commerce within their own personal spaces.

Great explanation of how ethicists provide value.
This is a beautiful piece that made me reflect on the times I've hurt people, why it happened and how I can act differently moving forward with this knowledge.

@worldsayer @BenGitsCode @leeloowrites @Cennydd @epenzeymoog I share Eva's interest in seatbelts. It's a paraphrase that keeps on being relevant, knowing now that more women die or are injured in car crashes due to lack of crash test dummies with female body types.

@jakobper I think LibraryThing is the one most recommended to me:

@jakobper I always find it fascinating how Goodreads put so much effort into hiding that they are a subsidiary of Amazon… =)
Det är ett farligt tankefel att mördar-robotar kommer anta skepnaden av monstruösa, mekaniska maskiner. Istället har mördar-robotar (bland många andra förklädnader) börjat anta skepnaden av webbformulär som automatiskt avgör om människor ska få ekonomiskt stöd eller inte, medicinsk hjälp eller inte, arbete eller inte.
Artikel 22 inom GDPR (Dataskyddsförordningen) ger dig rätt att inte vara föremål för automatiserat beslutsfattande. Det är en rättighet som kan bli mer och mer relevant att hålla koll på.
A dangerous fallacy is that killer robots will take the appearance of monstrous, mechanical machines. Instead, killer robots have (among many other disguises) taken the appearance of web forms automatically determining if people are eligible for financial assistance.
It's nice to not have to be held responsible for a decision that hurts another human being.
I’ll provide links to examples of automated decision-making in my next newsletter, and outline more of the dangers.

Excellent walkthrough by @CarissaVeliz and a great primer on Apple's double standards when it comes to privacy.
