I will never understand people who think the appropriate response to an insensitive comment is to wage a campaign of personal and professional ruination.
To borrow an old quip - it's akin to fighting dandruff with decapitation.

Elon Musk is loathsome. I've said and written as such. Via DOGE he doomed many babies to unecessary deaths. He is broken. But you don't want to go (further) down the road of "Let's kill the people we hate!" for reasons most 6-year-olds can understand

A while back I saw an article about scammers using hacked facial recognition data in their efforts to defraud, but I'm not readily finding that article again - is anyone following me familiar with what I'm referring to?

So Fable shared truthful information and now the feds are effectively banning the sharing of truthful information?

Andreesen is the worst kind of libertarian, the one who believes only he should be exempt from the rules
If the president personally banned his company's newest product with 0 warning, he'd throw the biggest hissy fit in history, but he cheers it on when it happens to others

The Vice President has been holding meetings with top Admin officials about the Epstein cover-up.
He has a lot to answer for. End the cover-up.

Hopefully after what happened to @AnthropicAI, the AI industry will tone down the relentless histrionics and fearmongering.

BREAKING: The UK is drafting a law to scan every photo, video and message on every phone in the country.
Tech CEOs who refuse to implement this could face up to 5 years in prison.
The proposal would force companies to build device level scanners that inspect content before encryption.
That means:
β’ Every image scanned
β’ Every message inspected
β’ Every video analyzed
All directly on your phone.
Governments and companies pushing these safetyβ systems already have a terrible track record protecting user data.
Last month, Europeβs new age verification app, promoted as a way to "keep children safe," was hacked in under 2 minutes.
In another case, over 70,000 IDs and selfies linked to online verification systems were exposed in a major breach.
Now the UK wants even deeper access directly inside your device.
Once governments force surveillance tools into every phone, they can expand what gets monitored at any time.

πStarmer's plans for child-locked devices is a Trojan horse for digital ID
"The only way to escape Starmerβs Great British Firewall and get regular internet access is to undergo a digital ID check on the device to register yourself as an adult user.
Convenient, perhaps, for a Prime Minister who has failed to get a digital ID system through the front door" - @silkiecarlo

FINALLY: A bipartisan effort to end unconstitutional jawboning!
The bill will require transparency and create a cause of action for damages when the feds coerce private platforms into censoring their users.
Everyone β regardless of their politics β should support this.
Jun 11
Government officials canβt legally censor protected speech, but they can strong-arm private parties into doing it for them. Thatβs called jawboning, and it violates your First Amendment rights.
Weβre supporting the JAWBONE Act to stop that coercion.
