Irony as Meta staff unhappy about running surveillance software on work PCs

Meta plans to install surveillance software named 'Model Capability Initiative' on employees' work computers to record keystrokes, mouse movements, and screenshots, aiming to collect real-world computer usage data to develop advanced AI models like personal superintelligences. This move is highly ironic given Meta’s long history of mining user data and facing privacy law violations, as its staff will now experience the same privacy concerns its billions of users have endured for years.
