I'm actually a little bit surprised that an article on a mainstream news site would use terms like "ableism" and "neurodiversity", but I think this is a good thing. We're gaining presence, and hopefully the anti-vaxxers will realize what they are doing wrong.

Wow, there's so many things wrong with that statement, I can't even begin. The ignorance is astounding.

Except it isn't. It's code that collects data on what you frequent and what things you like, and gives you more of them, rather than a mountain of junk.

It's code, and tech.
