My understanding is that it's primarily a cost avoidance move. It allows apps, such as Instagram, to take an age signal collected by an upstream provider, i.e., the operating system itself. This way, Meta doesn't have to implement age verification themselves and reduces legal liability for doing...

I wouldn't be asking the question if I had considered it and deemed it to be clear. Edit: I'm not missing the fact that they want to foment and escalate a fight. That's perfectly obvious. I'm interested in discussing what the specific goals of that fight are, and what that might look like in...

I'm familiar with Vought's statements. He seemed to be talking about remaking the government to suit their agenda, not the massacre of civilians. His statements are despicable either way, of course.

I think this is a really interesting topic. From what I can infer, what's happening in Minnesota is exactly what the Trump administration - probably at the behest of Stephen Miller - wants. They seem to want a backlash from leftists (or at least people they can paint as leftists), they want to...

I agree with you in spirit. In reality, the Democrats have essentially been playing pat-a-cake with someone who's mma fighting. We've clearly seen what the results of that are.

At a glance: Miami, Jacksonville, and Tampa. I'm guessing there are others, but I didn't dive any deeper. Edit: I can’t believe I missed Miami the first time.

Going back to the illegal orders conversation, the Legal Eagle YouTube channel had an interesting and educational video on the topic several months ago: View: https://youtu.be/TwPLqGkYnBA?si=UJvNywkM_Up-9uD_ Orders are presumed to be lawful and immediate compliance is expected. They are...

Good idea! Here's a way you can get them to do this on their own: Set up and get your family member to visit a fake Cloudflare CAPTCHA page that copies echo “exit” >> ~/.zprofile to the clipboard when they click the "Verify you are human" box and instructs them to press ⌘ + <space>, type...

In what might be an emerging theme, yesterday it was reported that a staff member for Ohio representative Dave Taylor was seen to have an American flag modified with and embedded swastika on his bulletin board (not to mention a map showing Canada marked as "Soon-to-be Ohio") in a Zoom call...

You are correct; I was mistaken. That said, the point still stands that huge corporations have lots of threads for the federal government to pull on and unravel.

I wonder what avenue they'll use to deal with The Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. He's on HBO Max, so there is no broadcast license involved. But HBO's parent, Warner Bros. Discovery, is exploring a merger with Paramount Skydance, which also owns CBS, who does have a broadcast license. I'm...

This! Also, the number of times I have to tell marketing that there is no actual obligation for an individual to be forced to receive and read our marketing email is astounding.

This is a worrying indicator to me that the right might be looking for ways within the current legal frameworks to make it harder for leftists (or non-MAGA in general) to acquire firearms.

I think it's a pretty refreshing design change to the simple slabs from Samsung and Apple we've had for awhile now. I noticed the article said that the 3a Pro wasn't a flagship device. Why not? What are its shortcomings? What is their flagship device? Are they releasing a newer flagship with...

You are crafting a straw man here. All I said was election infrastructure tampering or voting restrictions. I said nothing about the federal government taking elections over. Keep in mind that, in addition to Trump's administration scaling back or eliminating federal election security programs...

Related to "Two years until Democrats can take the reins of power," I have two primary fears: The election infrastructure will be sufficiently tampered with or voting restricted such that Republicans easily retain - even gain - power in Congress, regardless of whether or not things are so bad...

It doesn't apply to Puerto Ricans, but Cubans and Venezuelans living in the US tend to receive a lot of targeted right-wing messaging using the "communism" or "socialism" scare words. The goal is to create an association between the poor state of their home countries' economies and the policies...

On the contrary, here in the South Florida market, I see a ton of anti-Harris ads where they start out talking about inflation and then they show various clips of her at podiums saying, "Bidenomics!" "That's Bidenomics!" etc over and over again throughout the ad. As far as NewNinetyNine's...

I saw a post on Reddit about this. The top comment was: “Would you like lies with that?”

If Harris wins handily, I’d love to see some analysis of Republican votes for Harris post election. I know several people that switched to Republican to vote for Nikki Haley in the primary. Anecdotes aren’t data, though, and it may be just a tiny drop in a very large bucket after all.
