IBM is Googlebombing Its Way Out of Trouble and Criticism
Published literally 3 hours ago, only days after IBM had gutted lots of Canadian teams and workers:
On a Sunday: (regarding a promise made for 2029!*)
Debating "Quantum Blockchain/s", jokingly:
An hour ago in IRC someone reached out to us regarding IBM, stating that an IBM building had become empty and then replaced without any official notification. Where was the media? What was its role? To keep quiet about it?
This was in the US, where many layoffs occurred this month. The media didn't specify or investigate how many were impacted. So it can be anywhere between 2,700 staff and 27,000 staff. Quite a wide range, no?
IBM wants us to think that it still exists and matters. It wants us to believe that it's a market leader and layoffs aren't happening (or that "headcount" remains similar). We've already published approximately a dozen articles about why this "headcount" figure is a lie; Microsoft uses this very same lie.
IBM is a dying giant, but Wall Street and the media are complicit in covering that up. They participate in bubble-inflating lies. This is a very big problem for all of us. █
