Irony indeed.

This pretty much provides the final proof of the corporate takeover of academia.

If you're planning on being faculty in modern higher education, you very well better have some rich person's name in your title!

Your alternative? You can always be an underpaid, un-insured, temporary adjunct!

This 20 year old article certainly calls out the complete insincerity of the modern corporation's interface to it's customers. Especially when those customers are the retail masses.

The really scariest part to me, is that many modern consumers seem to think this is all OK.

"As long as the bot keeps kissing my ass I feel so taken care of" <-- This is the ultimate irony...
