    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    So I take it there's not actually a significant number of shareholders who are unhappy with his leadership, despite how obviously disastrous it's been. Sounds about right, honestly. What's probably happened is that everyone who was fed up with him just sold off their stock and moved on.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I don't understand why that's a feature the site offers, nor why anyone takes them up on it. You're not making it any more private, since just anybody can sign up. All you're doing is gatekeeping your audience based on their affinity for the platform you use.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Also why is it locking certain posts behind signups now? Did it really only take them this long to turn evil and require signups to access the site at all, or is this selective for reasons I can't even fathom and probably neither can the people who made that decision?

    Climate change (because it's still political for some reason)

    Like I said, "climate change" makes it sound like something only an old fogey would be scared of; we need to start saying "climate destabilization."

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Because they know the American public are too ideologically-minded to handle nuance and will accuse everything that doesn't pander to their exact worldview of being propaganda for the other side. Meaning anything in between will get accused of this and hated by everyone.

    Who's trying to break the internet today?

    They won't. If their argument is "We refuse to comply because we're outside your jurisdiction", the UK will just respond "OK, we're blocking access to your entire site, just like we said we would do to any site that doesn't follow the rules, and in your case we probably should have done that a...

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    Remember a few years ago when literally one whole third of the country had their data leaked, including SSN? It didn't destroy the system then, nor did it lead to all those people getting identity-thefted, although for the life of me I don't know why.

    Are you telling me even ICE has (well, had) people among its ranks who have too much of a functioning conscience to follow the orders Trump has been giving them lately? Well, that's... shocking, if true, but promising.

    The blockchain is going to destroy everything

    It really is amazing that they keep pushing these kinds of transparent propaganda films like it's the 1950s. No other industry does this sort of thing anymore; no other industry has done this sort of thing in my lifetime. How can they possibly sell the idea that they're the way of the future...

    Who's trying to break the internet today?

    You bring up a good point: Is blocking the malicious code contained in ads tantamount to blocking the whole ad, as per this ruling? And if not, what's the threshold? Most browsers already block certain tracking cookies automatically, without even asking. They try to block that one malicious...
