Adulting: An Update
July 26, 2020
DarkCyber wants to call attention to examples of adulting. The term refers to a behavior once associated with a responsible, civic-minded firm. High technology companies embrace the principles of high school science club management. Perhaps these examples indicate that high schooling is yielding to adulting, just slowly and with baby steps.
Example 1. “Google will replace Nest thermostats affected by w5 Wi-Fi error” reports a responsible action by the GOOG.
Example 2. “Twitter says it’s looking at subscription options as ad revenue drops sharply” suggests that one of the all-teen, all-the-time darlings of the technically elite may think about an action DarkCyber considers long overdue. We will have to wait and see. Adulting is painful, a bit like giving up one’s dream of running two companies from a far off land.
Example 3. “Amazon, Google and Wish remove neo-Nazi products” reveals that three essentially manic science club operations have reached a simultaneous moment of maturing. Each will remove products identified with potentially destructive concepts. Maturity comes slowly it seems even in the zoom zoom world of high technology.
