My latest for @wired.com: I tried exercising my data access rights over 100 times and almost lost my sanity during the process. www.wired.com/story/i-dema...

I Asked 100 Companies for My Data. I Got Deletion Notices Instead
California residents have a legal right to access the data that companies collect about them. Actually exercising that right is a burdensome nightmare.

Oh, so Trump is renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America? Does that mean schoolkids will learn S H A M E instead of H O M E S to help remember all the names??? #ontario

$4 BILLION. That’s how much the Trump Administration has now spent paying companies to cancel offshore wind projects that would have lowered your electric bill. Yes, you heard that right: they are PAYING to keep more energy off the grid and your bills higher.

Trump Administration to Pay RWE to Cancel Wind Leases
It was the fifth such deal struck by the administration to get companies to drop offshore wind projects.

The enforcement surge cost 668,000 jobs. Across the cities with the sharpest rise in ICE arrests, employment fell 0.73% below what they would have seen absent the surge, and 1.48% in the 51 cities observed at least six months out.

I'm glad one of our resident financial mavens has skimmed this filing, since I don't have time to right now. This part seems bad for the company: "AI is a black hole. Incinerating cash, no demand. Doesn’t make money even ex R&D. Just a money pit."

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.
