Just tell your boss you want a union, or he'll have to replace his entire workforce, all 2 of you.

The Georgia GOP is going to get itself caught up in federal RICO charges at this rate.
I wonder how that would work.
I'm almost positive they've been developing an image recognition AI that will make slightly altering csam photos obsolete.
Here's hoping.
That's how it's supposed to work, but in many counties the bondsman doesn't actually front any cash to the court, and they don't get charged if the suspect runs. They operate as a sort of slush fund for the owners, the officials, and the cops.
So these companies are often just another way to siphon money from people accused of a crime.
Super shady stuff.
And by they, you mean the right wind politicians in power.
The people who vote for them are constantly voting against their immediate interests.
If we had some sort of ranked choice, a lot of these one-issue voters might actually have a choice in their representation. Which would be good for all of us.
WinAeroTweaker will let you decide what junk you want to disable.
I mean, illegal online transactions are like the one place where crypto really shines.
Eh, I would support blocks on that. [Porn]
Okay, so lets build all the infrastructure and technology to block porn in the most effective way possible.
And I pinky winky promise to never use that technology to silence my political opponents.
Just think of the children.
And the thing is, there are open source internet browsers that can be written to avoid any browser checks that a law might require.
However, if Google's browser DRM gets widely implemented, a browser-side content blocker would be effective, because all those open source browsers would be unable to access the wider web.
I think if Big Brother Browser with Google DRM is our future, we're going to see people using 2 browsers as standard. They'll have one "corporate" internet browser, for Instagram, Amazon, whatever. And one "free" browser for all the grey area stuff.
Twitter was already struggling with nearly unfettered access to every internet-connected user. (sans heavily censored countries)
If Musk cut off 25%-50% of users, the platform, which relies on eyeballs seeing advertisements, would certainly spiral into oblivion.
That is legitimately a problem.
For some reason, YouTube's algorithm heavily favors extremist content if you show even a casual interest in related material.
It's probably as simple as "shocking content gets more clicks", but still, it's not good for our society to have entertainment platforms recommending extremist views.
In the old days, you'd have to seek out this kind of fringe content on your own. And you'd get pushback from your community if you started talking nonsense.
Nowadays, my aunt is getting blasted with reptilian democrat stuff after showing an interest in typical conservative lady content years ago. And there is not much of a community left to help her out. The algorithms just amplify all the worst shit.
Exactly what I was thinking.
That guy isn't making any big decisions behind the scenes. He's just being puppeteered until he dies.
