News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Yeah they'll give you recognition alright - for saving them money by allowing them to pry into your personal life.

Maybe it's just working for an international megacorp, but I can tell you with absolute certainty they don't give a shit about my health - except to the extent it affects the bottom line. I'll get my positive recognition from my doctor because it means something from them.

I really don't want another game in my life to micromanage my behavior. Diet and exercise are their own rewards.

I got a rewards program for everywhere I eat. A miles program got every airline I fly. A tax code with a million subsidies and loopholes. Auto insurance companies who want to stick telematics in my car. Now I have health insurance companies gamifying literally what I eat and how I spend my free time.

Just fuck off already.
