The author also seems blind to the fact aerial photography has been a well established concept for well over 80 years at this point. These companies are not optimizing their optical systems to spy on people, but rather provide a good focus at long focal ranges in hardened systems, has nothing to do with police or their motives, its a general product feature.

This is not some general blanket approach you can take to talking about internal implementations. You are either right, or wrong. There is no middle ground or "I think". If you've signed an NDA around these internal implementations I would wager that NDA came with a clause to not discuss it without consulting Meta, even after your departure.

I think most commenters are completely gleaning over the contrived systems which are embedded systems.

Sure, on higher performance systems you will be dealing with bigger demons such as cache and TLB performance depending on data size. But many embedded systems are performance limited for cost and power reasons. There is nothing here cloud will solve, nor anything else than more expensive NAND flashes, which require more power, and money. Hence why designing algorithms for critical data throughput are not as simple as using cloud or a filesystem.

As someone who lives in Vancouver, its quite a different story, and most of those I know, really don't understand where these stats come from. There is not a week that goes by I have someone knocking on the door of our family home asking to buy it. There are four owners left on our street that are the original owners, the rest are vacation homes for Chinese, and completely vacant. This is far from exaggerated.

So, if you don't know the reality, why pretend or even give a shadow of a doubt of good faith? You've lost me man. They can do more to be transparent, but they don't. This is not a technological blocker, its a deliberate decision. Don't act like they can't show the reality of moderation, they simply choose not to. We already established in this scenario they chose to do nothing after manual review by a human. What more evidence of failure do you need. It's not working, period.

What are you arguing here? That twitter is good at moderation because we simply can't see it behind the scenes?

I can think of hundred different ways this could have affected someone negatively, especially if they weren't able to speak with support in native language.

So c'mon, there is no excuse for this ban to take place, and then continue to be banned after the first appeal, statistics or not.

I've seen this quite a bit from dealerships that purchase rental vehicles from suppliers after they've become out of date, or the rental company wants to offload them. The rental company won't bother removing the tracking/remote start bundle, and the dealer will happily sell it none the wiser, or worse, as a added feature.
