Related: I’m still looking for leads and help on jobs, fellowships, and freelance contracts on drones, GIS, aid, disaster, OSINT, tech ethics, and journalism. I simply will not work for evil people and/or weapons manufacturers, which is also why I haven’t had paying work since Trump 2.0 began.

Drone tech has so many incredible applications for so many industries and if you want to make any sort of living you have to work for an illiterate Nazi pervert dweeb who collects erotic anime figurines.

Good for you. Definitely a privileged position in a sense but that doesn’t mean it’s not a morally right & principled one. Can’t begin to tell you how many jobs and money I’ve missed out on because I have high standards for myself and others, in every sense of the word

Yep, I fully acknowledge it’s a privileged position to be in, which I think makes it all the more important I don’t compromise.

100% agreed. In a lot of ways, although our financial situations may be completely opposite, the essential question remains the same. I could easily justify working for things I don’t respect and probably no one would openly judge me for it, but at the end of the day you still have to face yourself
