I have a lot more to say, but I'll hold it for now and simply wonder aloud...
Which BigTech clouds are the "Lavender" & "Where's Daddy?" AI systems running on? What APIs are they using? Which libraries are they calling?
What work did my former colleagues, did I, did *you* contribute to that may now be enabling this automated slaughter?
(Also, content warning. This is some of the sickest shit I've ever read.)
