There are plenty of ways to manipulate photos to make you look better, remove red eye or lens flare, and so on. But so far the blink has proven a tenacious opponent of good snapshots.

Adobe in particular has made good use of it with its “context-aware fill,” allowing users to seamlessly replace undesired features, for example a protruding branch or a cloud, with a pretty good guess at what would be there if it weren’t. But some features are beyond the tools’ capacity to replace, one of which is eyes.

People hate hubris and hypocrisy more than they hate evil, which is, I think, why we’re seeing the beginnings of a bipartisan cultural backlash against the tech industry. A backlash which is wrongly conceived and wrongly targeted … but not entirely unfounded. It’s hard to shake the sense that, as an industry, we are currently abdicating some of our collective responsibility to the world. I don’t want to overstate the case. The tech industry remained the single most trusted entity in America as recently as last year, according to the  Edelman Trust Barometer . Jeff Bezos is the wealthiest man in the world, and Elon Musk probably its highest-profile billionaire; of course they’re going to attract flak from all sides.

This split is even evident in the most recent high profile “SaaS”  acquisition of GitHub by Microsoft,  with  over 50 percent of GitHub’s revenue coming from the sale of their on-prem offering,  GitHub Enterprise .   Data privacy and security is also becoming a major issue, with  Benioff himself even pu...
