This entire 'feedly goes into strikebreaking' headline at first didn't make any sense to me when E first mentioned it. First because it sounds extremely out there, in terms of 'service', and second, it's RSS, which I think is hardly suited for the type of claims this service makes (and the article shows that too imo). RSS content hardly shows emergent patterns if you've not defined the network/group you're drawing from imo (e.g. media are not useful for it), and it works at a slower pace than 'let's see if this protest turns violent'. I've worked for orgs that had a 'keep our employees save' coordination centre, and they defintely didn't tap into RSS. They'd send me an sms to avoid a certain part of certain city because of a disease outbreak for instance, or warn met of specific types of crime to watch out for when embarking on a mission, or real time weather warnings for my location.

I haven't used Feedly, I only mentioned it once on my blog in 2019, because my hoster blocked it as 'bad bot'. Foresight? https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2019/06/feedly-blocked-as-bad-bot-by-my-hoster/ I think that blocking feedly might be not as bad as I thought in 2019
