Non-Human SEO Consultant

“As a result, instead of optimizing our machines for humanity-or even the benefit of some particular group-we are optimizing humans for machinery.” Douglas Rushkoff. Program or Be Programmed. OR Books, 2010.

Nice find! that self-licking ice-cone is one step closer… Who needs those pesky humans… ?

Yes, so much so that it could almost have been culled from other articles by a machine-learning bot!
