Thousands of Turks accused of using Bylock app despite never having used it
This seems to be a growing trend, mostly in journalism; Blame technology.<p>Just recently there was a article going around about how Google's search algorithm was at fault of keeping two sisters apart. And entire multi page write up on how our lives are at the whims of computers and algorithms. Then to be told that the one sister could not find the other because she changes her name online to protect her identity.<p>Now we have this. A big pile of junk trying to set the reader up to think this single line of code is responsible for the arrest of people. Again trying to instill fear of technology and computers into the reader.<p>I worry this type of article will sway the public's view of technology for the worst.<p>In the end it is people who are to blame for the problem described in this article. And it all centers around lack of understanding how these technologies work. Articled like this are just going to make that worse. Further more the entire thing is bogus because the notion that one can't have access to a given technology is entirely man made and has nothing to do with any "lines of code".
