So people have been arrested for posting something online, even if nobody appears to have seen it, and they delete it shortly after.
The policing is selective, depending on political view. For example, there were recently people with placards in London calling for the death of JK Rowling, which is de facto allowed by the police.
In comparison the wrong social media post can carry a lengthy jail sentence. [2]
The difference is so noticeable, it is now called "two tier policing".
If someone perceives something you say as "hateful" they can report you to the police, who can record a "Non-crime hate incident" against your name. [3]
This can show up on enhanced job checks, affecting employment.
It's very similar to a Stasi file.

If used like that, this service will effectively turn my job into that of an assistant to a machine.
I always hated that there is this second meaning. Especially since IMO it's being used to "steal" some of the glory associated with the original meaning.
When did this second meaning emerge anyway? Is this site here partially at fault?
I don't get this, why? Because I exist I deserve equal money as everyone else?
If I do succeed I will definitely buy toys (fast cars) but yeah I will help, as there is a cap to minimum needs. Also I don't like being a target eg. stealth wealth they say that I'm currently far from.
Please, tell me more! In your opinion, has "commumism" ever really existed/been implemented properly at scale? If so, please give me an example.
You speak like a privileged person, so you're probably born somewhere in the western world. Judging from the current time, I'd say Europe. My guess is your parents left socialist (i.e. not communist) Eastern Germany when you were little and you keep telling people that this was your great escape from communism ever since.
His own health choices are a private matter as far as I'm concerned. He held off too long on modern medicine and paid the price for it. Bringing it up here is irrelevant and distracting.
Maybe it's just me, but I think innovation awards are for people with scientific mindsets. Jobs obviously didn't have one.
