I saw today someone had Grammarly installed during a conference call. They were entering HIPAA-protected data into an internally-managed Jira instance, which presumably was being vacuumed directly up into Grammarly's database.
This might be a much bigger issue than I had considered :(

Very interesting. I have three complete ][gs "Woz" editions sitting in storage somewhere, that I rescued from a school computer lab where they were being thrown out in ~2004. I also snagged the Macintosh that was used as the server for the network, and all the backup media that I could find. There's a copy of Oregon Trail in there somewhere, that I played in school :)
Maybe I should find them...

Likewise, I would suggest that it's more valuable for someone coming from a lower income/social status background to go to a good school than for someone who comes from higher - those people either already know influential people, or have the financial resources necessary to do things like attend conferences or just up and move to where those people are.

Except for the fact that they are almost completely non-dischargeable, you mean.
