I feel really sad about how people need to resort to therapy for the kind of interaction that would be provided by a healthy social norm of honest and open communication. Maybe I should talk to my therapist about this feeling. But somehow I doubt that would actually accomplish anything.

This is the first time I see history repeating itself first as farce and only then as tragedy. Personally, I would be hard pressed to trust any data collection business with any honest information about my mental health.

DNA profiling in the 23andme thread, psychological profiling over here, teachers teaching kids to be unable to put 2 and 2 together in the "AI presentation maker for teachers" thread. Scariest of all is how those who would simply prefer to not live in that kind of world are gradually dehumanized by those who find nothing wrong with that sort of thing...
