Phoenix police have pattern of violating civil rights and using excessive force

I’m starting to doubt whether allowing “industries” to speak as a collective should be allowed in a just society

Sigh, By Grabthar’s hammer

You can’t figure out whether they consent until you grope them, and see how they respond! Did you not read the quote? I meant caress, not grope! Caress response determines consent!

His face is so punchable, but I never get to punch it!

Why is this being asked in the past tense?

Music streaming does not seem at all incompatible with a dumb phone. Maybe you have to go to your desktop for advanced settings, but the basics should work fine.

Also, with their oftentimes crazy physical configurations, and strange yet wonderful assortment of doohickies, dumb phones were way cooler than most smart phones today. But I will burn this shit all down if they dont ALL have USB-C charging going forward.

Congress:

Only thousands?

I could sure use just a couple of billion. I don’t even need 100.

It’s quite a good and shocking article, and I recommend the read, however I’m guessing there are some few people like me who didn’t know all the acronyms in the title.

NOYB (None of Your Business) is a European non-profit organization that focuses on enforcing privacy rights and data protection laws, particularly the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It was founded in 2018 by privacy activist Max Schrems, who is known for his successful legal actions against major tech companies for privacy violations. NOYB aims to ensure that companies comply with data protection regulations by filing strategic complaints and legal actions. The organization seeks to empower individuals by protecting their personal data and advocating for stronger privacy rights.

A Data Protection Authority (DPA) is an independent public authority responsible for overseeing the application of data protection laws, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union. DPAs are tasked with safeguarding individuals’ privacy rights and ensuring that organizations comply with data protection regulations. Their roles include:

1. Monitoring Compliance: Ensuring that data processing activities adhere to data protection laws.
2. Investigating Complaints: Addressing complaints from individuals regarding their data protection rights.
3. Providing Guidance: Offering advice and guidelines to organizations and individuals on data protection issues.
4. Enforcing Laws: Imposing penalties and sanctions on entities that violate data protection regulations.
5. Raising Awareness: Educating the public about their data protection rights and responsibilities.

DPAs operate within each EU member state, and they cooperate with each other to ensure a consistent application of data protection laws across the EU.

**Irish DPC is complicit (again). **According to reports, this blatant breach of the GDPR is (again) based on a “deal” with the Irish Data Protection Commission (the DPC is Meta’s EU regulator). The DPC has previously had a deal with Meta that allowed the company to circumvent the GDPR – and ended with a € 395 million fine against Meta after the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) overruled the Irish DPC.

I’m sure it’s just a fluke. Nothing to worry about.

Every day I get more frustrated with swiftkey. This sounds worth a try.

Yeah, we wouldn’t want to pass judgement too quickly

Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said it would be a “further abuse of power” to incarcerate Trump or sentence him to home confinement.

“I’m very troubled by what I see in the way the courts have been weaponized,” he said. “It used to be there were some institutions in America, namely the FBI, the Department of Justice and the courts, which were regarded as out of bounds for overt partisan politics, but unfortunately that’s changed, and not for the better.”

I am at a loss for how true his words are, while his intent is SO SO wrong

That idea is Streets Ahead!

I’m starting to think this Kanye West character may not be such a good guy

Unless they suspect there is any sort of danger inside. In which case they mill around outside the OR and prevent anyone else from entering.

It’s almost as if the made up nonsense of the stock market isn’t propped up by anything real.
