Big data will be used to identify, track, isolate, and then indoctrinate the most vulnerable members of society. You will be shadow banned and gas lit into a pipeline that serves to supply the insidious demands of those who see humans only as resources. We coders will unwittingly(poorly compensated) or wittingly(well compensated) algorithmically functionalize the pimp psychology and business practice into a system of…
Criminals lie. They could claim to be a humanitarian company while trafficking. The only way for Salesforce to know would be to manually investigate all their stored data. Not only is that practically impossible, but it would also ruin them. Business information is private.
Then again, in lots of jurisdictions today, a landlord can be held liable for the tenant committing a crime. In these jurisdictions, if your tenant assaults someone on your property, you can be liable for millions in compensation. This is yet another way to drive former criminals back to crime. They aren't full citizens. They can't get a job to get money. They can't get a loan to buy a house. They can't even rent a place to stay because it's so risky. Since they've been effectively "unperson-ed", their only choice is going back to crime. At least if they're caught, they'll have food, healthcare, and a place to stay.
Stupid laws are stupid. If person A is legally responsible for person B's actions, they will necessarily start asserting control over person B's life. We do this to kids under the idea that they are too ignorant to know better. Why do we do this to mentally-capable adults? They are capable of independent decisions. Hold them responsible for their actions. Quit forcing Landlords, Salesforce, or whomever to play as parents and be legally responsible for other adults.

You really think the main use of BIG data will be to facilitate things like sex trafficking?
As for immigrants delivering food - would they be better off without these jobs? What would they be doing?

anyone who's ever had to build anything on it. but yeah this smells like an attack.
Is Apex still a thing? When I was at my first internship that environment was one of the only things that has ever made me consider quitting programming.

a proper debugger is still not a thing.
I wonder whom did Salesforce annoy enough to warrant a media smear campaign against them.
Benioff seems like a tool. He puts his name on children’s hospitals...it is possible to donate without people knowing, Keanu does it all the time. If you don’t hate Salesforce, you haven’t been paying attention. I’ve wanted forever to rid our company of anything to do with Salesforce, but I work with some people that can’t handle change. This law suit seems like a money grab. Go after the deepest pockets, but I perso…
First, that big Camp fire last year; now, if it turns out they’ve been producing electricity that has been used by criminals... eek

Can you provide more details about "Apex"? Is this a staffing agency or a company? I'm also curious about what happened during your internship that made you consider a different career, if you don't mind and are able to share.
It’s like a bare bones Java.
I’ve been working in salesforce for almost 10 years and apex still makes me question if I want to work in software every single day.
