It’s also about gatekeeping and censoring. If they have the information digitally, and there is no physical copy, they can decide who sees the information, or indeed edit it into a version they want you to see.

Do the police generally warn people not to commit terrorism because they’ll be arrested if they do? And if they don’t, would we say this is different because it’s deeply idiotic, as well as insulting and insanely authoritarian

The activist group Defend Our Juries has planned a mass show of support for the proscribed group Palestine Action outside Westminster Magistrates' Court tomorrow.
Expressing support for Palestine Action is an offence under the Terrorism Act. Those who do so will be arrested.

"Electability" conversation exists inside make-believe where only habitual voters turnout and some number must be coaxed into swapping parties, based on rational issue position calculus. In fact, what caused Dem MEGA Blue Wave in 2018 was unprecedented non-habitual & new voter turnout. /1

Uber Eats and DoorDash hid tip buttons and set default tips below 10%. As a result, tips for delivery workers fell 79%.  In January, we made these corporations change their apps — and in the past six months, we've put $104 million back in delivery workers' pockets.  This is only the beginning.

The US isn't just complicit: it is aiding a genocide. Why? Because the US stole land and mass-murdered First Nations, broke treaties, destroyed the ecosystem, and installed a faux-religious racial apartheid state. Israel is going exactly what the US has already done, which is why the US endorses it.
