US current politics will be a true test of American capitalism as profits and losses shift dramatically over the next few months. Corporations will need to hold the government accountable should profits fall. Deregulation seems enticing, until it backfires and profits tank. Shareholders beware.

US attorneys must look at all 922 pages of the 2025 Manifest of Leadership to see the future and find choke points to preclude legal success. That doc began w/ Reagan, just tweaked by Heritage for 2025. Predicting the next legal moves is clutch, & the citations are already there to argue against.

As is often the case, another judicial decision, one of major consequence, hinges on one word. This time it's "jeopardy"

how ironic it will be when the next presidential immunity case gets to the Supreme Court, which can't wait to grant Cert, and in one magical opinion precedent will matter again

Branch Metrics, Apptentive, Adobe, New Relic, Google, Salesforce, Mixpanel, Urban Airship, just to name a few, get so much personal data from apps, often including gps coordinates and first and last name. What is the unique identifier doing, or not doing, in those cases?

Our data is no longer points that need to be connected like dots. Our data is now like lines that intersect with each other which together create a much more detailed image of our identity. It was one thing to control the individual points. Now it's a different battle to control all the lines.

QR codes continue to be a problem as an easy vector for infection. There is little to keep a bad actor from presenting seemingly legit uses of a QR code, such as a gift receipt or restaurant menu. Being cautious, dare one say 'healthy paranoid', is not an option but a necessity for staying safe.
