I’m sometimes asked about the overlap of ethics and accessibility. Simple answer: it’s perfectly possible to make an unethical website accessible.
Ironically, it would be unethical to not make the unethical website accessible.
We all have the same right to be bamboozled.
Readworthy content in latest issue of @thecontinent_ on how Facebook is being used to exacerbate harm in the ongoing civil war in Ethiopia.
It's the first African publication to obtain access to the thousands of documents leaked by Frances Haugen.
There is a lot of content on Ethiopia in this issue, but also an African perspective on climate crisis activism. I highly recommend subscribing to @thecontinent_ for weekly, well-written insights from the world's second largest continent.

@FrejaeID Hej! Hur långt har ni kommit med att kunna erbjuda eid för personer utan svenskt personnummer? Kan jag läsa mer om detta någonstans?
↪ Replying to @olssonm
@olssonm Väldigt ledsamt. För några år sedan upptäckte jag liknande med en person jag aldrig träffat (vision/mål kopierat till deras sajt). Jag mejlade och frågade vad de höll på med och de pudlade och bad om ursäkt och plockade bort inom en timme. Men vansinnigt tråkigt att det pågår.
@olssonm Kan också vara värt att påminna förövaren om att det kan vara direkt skadligt för dig, då sökmotorer och andra algoritmer ju flaggar dubblerat innehåll och båda parter blir lidande av försämrad synlighet.
If you know anything about the history of Oompa Loompas in Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, these types of "humoristic" alert messages come across as ignorant and narrow-minded.
This is from @revue but they are not alone in "Oompa-jokes".

«In the first edition of Charlie (1964), the Oompa-Loompas are black pygmies who Wonka imports from “the deepest and darkest part of the African jungle” and enslaves in his factory.»

Sensitivity reading should ideally be made part of the design process.

@palace Hur trygg du än känner dig med intervjuoffrets tekniska kompetens, ha alltid (alltid!!) en backup-inspelning när du spelar in podd.

@ichianna Hehe, that’s exactly the thought I wanted to spark. 😊 I actually do believe VR can do wonders for rehab purposes. Sadly, I see it going the other way for prisons because unlimited virtual space means potential savings in physical space.
@ichianna Spending time in a virtual space embodied as the person you harmed… I am intrigued by these types of experiments. bigthink.com/health/gender-…
VR prisons can’t be far off now.
In one potential timeline, people wouldn’t want to leave prison.
In another potential timeline, the effects of therapy in prison could take huge leaps.

Prisoners would of course telecommute to their cells.
The definition of a cell would need to be completely reimagined.
Toying with a formula... 😬
Potential harm = distance from subject • time from subject • actor knowledge of subject • number of subjects • subject awareness of action • operator awareness of actions • regulatory awareness of actions • actions per hour

@DorotheaBaur Surveillance is moot when we are all just puppets in the theatre of The Singularity. 😅
Too many things to do? 😬
Save time and gain perspective with a quick Eisenhower Matrix exercise. Put your tasks in a grid indicating Urgency and Importance. It will tell you what to do first, put in your schedule, postpone or eliminate.

@KiriRupiah @thecontinent_ Thank you Kira. I was born in Liberia and like to keep an eye out for mentions on developments. The example set by Ellen Johnson Sirleaf's presidency is something I press for more acknowledgement of. 😊
