Re:Ask HN: Why Isn't Open Source Voting Software Mandated?

It feels like voting and human rights is always delayed in our history. Creating something that would gurantee free elections could revolutionise the world. But that does not mean it's in everyone's short-term interest. Why would any corrupt politicians encourage something that would put them in prison?

Yes! Linkedin is also really pushy with this, but being honest once I got a job (they contacted me through linkedin) that boosted my salary 30% with linkedin, really helped me with my personal economy. Also you cannot not be on linkedin in my region because then you are not normal :( ..
That being said, I have disabled all notifications on linkedin, but still they manage too be annoying when I'm added by someone who is selling me something (I don't mind the endless recruiters)..

It could be part of a strategy for inactive users, I was inactive for 30+ days before the first push notification..

It's sad because push notifications could offer end users actual value..

Ofcourse I won't since I deleted it, but too me it's an extreme way of business.. Also they might in the comming 10years position themselves like facebook did, then it's not so easy not to use anymore (i.e. everyone is on messenger)..
TikTok tried to manipulate me – uninstalled
The Ticktock (android) application has done 3 annoying things that ended up in me deleting it.1. First they created a push notification that simulated a private message to me [weekday]2. They created a push notification that simulated a thread reply [weekday]3. They pushed out something simulating pornographic content (what really made me angry was that it matches my search history!!!)...
