  • iophk: The EFF is trying to help advance the age verification by using very weak tactics against it. They do that by framing it in such a way that the public loses will to support the EFF's approach. The EFF works for GAFAM only, while superficially pretending to oppose it.

  • "I don’t see IBM ever selling off Consulting completely as it’s part of the strategic Enterprise focus. Instead IBM will most likely pick 8-10 strategic “enterprise” industries focused on “Legacy” enterprise (banking , financial, etc etc) and then partner off what’s left over. That should easily 1/2 consulting while letting IBM get the front end (eg marketing) of the left over pile."
