When wealth grows above a certain point and tey still want more, that's not about the money/wealth anymore. It's about power, it's an obsession, and it's an ego problem. It's a sickness.

But that mask slipped long ago... and the longer you look at his past the further back in time it slips...

how her supporters could think she was a decent politician

I don't think that's how MAGA voters work. They don't think "decent politician", they feel "she gives me good kneejerk reactions". And that's the problem.

"Nobody's going to get around that," he said of the 50% rate. "That means that nobody's going to be able to steal your industry. It's at 25% - they can get over that fence. At 50%, they can no longer get over the fence."

This is so dumb. Imagine working in that industry and just looking on in exalted horror as your livelihood wanes while this idiot claims it's for your best.

“Full transparency, I did not know about this section on pages 278-279 of the OBBB that strips states of the right to make laws or regulate AI for 10 years. I am adamantly OPPOSED to this and it is a violation of state rights and I would have voted NO if I had known this was in there,” the Georgia representative wrote on X.

I feel this is not the first time she or some other MAGA bimbo said something like this.

Yet another of those "We Told You So" moments. Still, I get no satisfaction from it.

"Snippy" sounds positively harmless compared to what else is going down in this country. But considering that's the joke going round in the WH, and there's nothing he can do about it - very funny.

orchestrating the change as Pride month celebrations take place

Social influencers: how to get maximum attention on your posts.

But that's not how you run a country.

And let's not forget: it's Mango Mussolini and the grey eminences behind him who put all these idiots in power.

Is the implosion of the USA already happening, or will it go out with a bang?

People living in and looking at the USA: Archive Everything

There will be a lot of work to restore normalcy.

The full report

These are all important points and it sounds like a summary of everything that is wrong in IT wonderland.

I guess the report goes into more detail, I guess they needed some nice headline to wrap it in, but - I wonder where they draw the line between "Big" and "Little" tech or why it's supposed to be a big gotcha that not only the biggest corporations employ outright evil tactics, exploit workers globally.

Just Another Brick in the Wall

the vast scale of the data imo makes most of it worthless outside of demographics ad targeting

Not when each point is matched to a unique machine (i.e. user) ID. It's not anonymous, it's "anonymized" which is just snake oil (replace your actual name with a unique ID).

Also, I find ad targeting bad enough all by itself.

I still call it stalking.

A simple whois (querying a public database) points to Prague (CZ) - and reveals the name & address of one person. Of course that most likely isn't his personal address, the guy could still live in the USA. And his last name indeed does not sound very czech, could be Russian, but I cannot be sure. Somebody in the fediverse claimed that he's a Russian asset but I haven't seen anything that would support that claim, apart from the obvious.

whois

• archive.is: Denis Petrov, Prague
• archive.today: tucows.com and lots of REDACTED
• archive.md: almost no info at all
• archive.ph: This TLD has no whois server
