It’s impossible not to hate Elon Musk after watching the new Gibney doc. It doesn’t reveal much new, but I’m glad someone has made a doc that goes deep on the many MANY ways this guy sucks

Surveillance does not always look like a camera on the wall. Sometimes it looks like a data request, an ad profile, a device log, or a convenience feature. The hype version is easy. The consequences are the part worth watching. #Privacy #TechNews

Sherrod Brown's new response to an anti-trans ad is remarkably different from many other dems. Instead of accepting bigotry towards trans people, he pivots and links his Republican opponent to the Epstein files. It is notably different from his earlier ads. Subscribe to support our journalism.

All life is sacred. That's not to say that issues of life & death are simple. To the contrary, they require careful thought & discernment. Even then we should be uneasy when we justify the taking of a life. But to see some limit "pro life" to only the start of life is a failure of our teachings.

Max stupid: EU may loosen EV rules for third time in two years, aiding China
During multiple historic fuel crises and a climate crisis that left tens of thousands dead across Europe this summer, the bloc is reportedly close to striking a deal to allow its automakers to produce more of the vehicles that directly caused each of those problems. In doing so, it would only ensure that its automakers are unprepared to compete against the country that actually is providing solutions to those problems: China. more…
