In this case there is clear evidence that tampering of images and video of the event has taken place. If you look at the video and many of the still images from Getty of Jan. 6th you can clearly see content-aware crowd filling alteration. This evidence does not in any way necessarily imply the existence of a grand conspiracy, nor am I making any claim supporting anything of that nature.
Are you arguing that because there are hypothetically a million mobilizable supporters of Trump that the image doesn’t clearly contain deep fake crowd size expansion? Refer to the image. It is as clear as day.
I thought that this error in the e-mail was funny since complaining to HR departments is in fact a little unprofessional. If you don't receive an e-mail back from HR or a recruiter, it means that the company wasn't interested in you. 'Ghosting' doesn't exist in the hiring world. No reply universally means that you've been turned down. Receiving a reply is an unnecessary courtesy provided by some companies. Job hunting can be daunting, but do not whinge to companies that have turned you down. They may hire you in the future.
My spidey senses tell me that Facebook and Twitter have begun periodically spinning off artificial competing shell orgs that resemble this service. They use the data gathered from signups to run demographic analysis on users who are likely to leave their platform, and can additionally point to these companies as evidence of existing competition in anti-trust cases. Parler, a so-called Twitter alternative that mysteriously won't publish its list of backers, is another good example of this type of company. What is a ham-sandwich photo and copypasta spammer to do?
This entire thing is likely related to Apple’s engineered obsolescence cycle. They have already been busted intentionally causing issues on their platforms prior to the release of new products in order to drive sales. It’s a grey area legally and difficult to prove, but it’s essentially a form of racketeering.
“Hey” very clearly gamed an Apple TOS violation to increase the visibility of their project as a marketing stunt during its launch. This practice is becoming increasingly common as companies try to position themselves as being relatable to average users. It’s free publicity, integrates into a hotly debated topic poll, and garners a lot of commentary which can be easily driven by shills.
The practice of rigging app store removals as a means of increasing launch-hype is becoming an increasingly utilized marketing technique for apps. The "Hey" e-mail app successfully used this tactic recently. This marketing technique is a form of social engineering and fraud that spurs artificial discourse regarding well-known legal hurdles affecting apps. App developers then re-publish a compliant app that capitalizes on the very marketplace that the app developer and their pool of new users claim some deep-seated issue with. The old switcheroo!
