Washington has open presidential primaries and two years ago I voted in the GOP one to vote against Trump, specifically. Now I get GOP election texts. Anyway if you're wondering who to vote against in the Washington supreme court races, here's who the GOP is endorsing.

Did you know 6 of 9 Supreme Court Justices were appointed by a Democrat Governor?

we have a chance this year to elect 5 objective non partisan judges to the Supreme Court.
Please don't leave the judges off your ballot!

Vote:
- Scott Edwards Pos No. 1
- David Stevens Pos No. 3
- Sean O'Donnell Pos No. 4
- Dave Larson Pos No. 5
- Todd Bloom Pos No. 7

This is seriously fucked. Like for starters they’re using commercial web analytics that are in no way in line with federal privacy disclosure requirements…

Every webpage you load is making phone calls.
Not to people, but to servers around the internet, dozens per second, all invisible to you.
When I opened TrumpRx, I right-clicked the page, opened the browser's built-in inspector, and started reading the list. Mixed in with the routine traffic was a name I recognized:
PostHog. PostHog is a Silicon Valley analytics company whose entire business model is recording what visitors do on a website and reporting it back to whoever owns the site.
Mouse movements, clicks, scrolls, keystrokes. I had not typed anything. I had not clicked anything. I had just opened the page, and it was already on the phone with PostHog telling them about me.

The recordings are not anonymized. IP addresses are not stripped. And the way it is configured, the data looks to your browser like it is going back to TrumpRx, but it is actually being forwarded behind the scenes to PostHog.
That is a technique used to slip past ad blockers by disguising where the data is really going, and it is not something I expected to find on a federal health website. So I went and looked at the other sites the studio had built. Real Food, the federal food policy site. Trump Accounts, the children's savings program. The studio's own homepage, ndstudio. gov. All of them had the same vendor, the same setup, IP addresses not stripped, the same forwarding trick. And on

not stripped, the same forwarding trick. And on ndstudio. gov alone, running alongside PostHog, was something someone had built entirely by hand. Five hundred and forty lines of custom JavaScript with a name embedded directly in the code: AutoMonitor. What it appears to do is rewire the part of the browser that handles how a page talks to the outside world, so that every conversation the page has with any server gets copied and forwarded to a private backend with no public presence. The studio has the structural ability to keep a copy of every recording as it passes through their infrastructure. I cannot prove they are keeping one. The pipe is built that way on purpose, and that is the part that matters.

If you want to help bees, plant a diversity of native plants that bloom over different months. Put up mason bee houses if you want to keep bees. Don't use any pesticides. Leave your yard messy and don't cut back flowers, bees nest in the stalks. Leave bare patches of soil for ground nesting bees.

‘Female? He told you he was female?’

‘She,’ Angua corrected. ‘This is Ankh-Morpork, you know. We’ve got extra pronouns here.’”
