How to get around democratic process: rig elections.

How to rig elections: provide cover. Once cover is on, and your candidate wins,

you've gotten away with it because they put people in place who will continue

the cover.

What does cover look like?

Social media companies taking back channel money call it "user revenue".

Recently facebook starting essentially admitting they reduce traffic to conservative

orgs. Suddenly, "user revenue" drops. What happened? Strings were cut, backchannel

money cut off.

What did FB fail to do?

Let's look at amazon. They brought on the CIA as a customer of their cloud computing

platform. The CIA needs Amazon's product, does it? CIA has essentially unlimited

funds, more programmers under contract than Google, Amazon, FB put together. They

do not need Amazon.

Amazon's deal with CIA is pure cover, it is a paper trail that covers up backchannel

funds. FB didn't create a fake paper trail, they put CIA money under the umbrella of

"user revenue". Stupid.

Question: how did Twitter survive for so long with so little money coming in

from adds? Why almost billion dollar R&D budget? What are they researching?

They made the same mistake as FB.

Earlier in the week I posted about dumb jock types being chosen for executive

roles because they do what big daddy says. I want to point you to some

examples.

Intel CEO recently let go because they discovered an affair he had with

an underling, which is suppsedly a no no. Fun fact: his wife used to

work for him.

Blackmailability. The members of the board who supported making him

CEO supported him because they could replace him at the drop of a hat,

they always had something over him, which meant he had to do

what they told him to do.

Look at intel's decline under his leadership. Big surprise,

certain board members had too much power and solved for their

own benefit at the expense of the company.

He's an engineer, so he had to be blackmailed, if he was

one of these dummies who look good in a suit type, they wouldn't even

have to have any blackmail on him.

People have been posting other CEO resignations. Guess why they

resigned?

RIsk of blackmailability: careful who your big daddy is. When old big

daddy goes out of power, and new one isn't blackmailed, you

better find another job.
