The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Worth a watch: Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

Holy Crap. Just straight up looting at this point. Or like was already looting. But just bringing in a semi to haul out the loot faster.

A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson. Tilson sits at a whopping .8%. Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.

Non-white voters elected a non-white president in 2008 and we are still going through their fucking temper tantrum. A US citizen is a US citizen. Republicans love welfare and socialism, but only for themselves.

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

“Los Angeles is interesting and admirable, precisely because of the cultural exchange; this place is a powerful example of what’s possible, of what can be achieved when we put empathy first.” This brought me to tears.

The folks that run Another Planet Entertainment are assholes. It’s one thing to ruin a theatre and turn it into an overpriced straightbro hangout. It’s another to ruin two neighborhood businesses. They are lying about this being out of their control. www.sfgate.com/bayarea/arti...

Trump said "no new wars" throughout his entire presidential campaign. He made it the centerpiece of his threadbare foreign policy approach. He claimed his dealmaking skills would prevent new wars. Here's a clear campaign promise being broken. So, why aren't reporters challenging him on it?

A data broker owned by the country’s major airlines, including Delta, American Airlines, and United, collected U.S. travellers’ domestic flight records, sold access to them to CBP, and then told CBP to not reveal where the data came from, according to internal CBP documents.

The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity
