It's rare for a major corporation to lie about something like that so blatantly.

#33Nearly all entities in products and politics astroturf heavily. In the end it is a massive critical thinking lesson and adds much needed skepticism to the populace. The truth is the internet is teaching the biggest lesson ever in critical thinking and getting your information from many sources across spectrums, individuals, companies, countries, divides and more. Let's hope that people see it as a lesson and not some…
The critical thinking lessons you mention are likely to come at the price of a massive loss of human life.

It's hard to know what's real and fake. Some of the FC Ambassadors are definitely satire accounts.

#40Whenever I see a news story about Amazon workers and robots, I'm reminded of Amazon's "workers in a cage" patent [1]. It has spawned a bunch of funny (or sad?) "Amazon Wagie Cage" memes as a result [2][3]... and even an art exhibit of a real-sized patent drawing [4]. Needless to say, I shop a lot less on Amazon these days and try to buy from other shops whenever possible. [1] https://www.seattletimes.com/business/ama…
You do realize that the cage is there to protect the worker, right?
If you think "worker in a cage, on top of a robot" is terrible, have you ever seen a construction crane? It is literally a robot with a cage in which a worker sits -- and just like the (never implemented!) patent from Amazon, the point of the cage is to protect the worker.
