Ah yes, the good old, "Leave the disease alone and see what happens" tactic. I wonder if it will just go away this time?

From the article, the data collection hinges on a bot going into a public server then scraping the history. Still a problem that Discord should act on, but it looks like there is no need to worry about private servers.

Give the moderator a mute button and I would watch it. It would be neat if they live captioned the bs trump was yelling about while muted.

The US govt needs to get its shit together and deal with these major quality of life issues. The longer there is no response to massive protests the bigger, and likely, more violent these demonstrations will get. Who this violence will be caused by remains to be seen, but the larger the group of people gets, the easier it is to manipulate with panic/chaos.

You'd think the party of Breeding wouldn't go after a bill that would encourage the creation of more workers, but I guess Communism is more scary than losing profits.

Well I have news for you, https://finalspaceends.com/

It probably won't be done for a while, but it is actively being worked on.

Final Space, kinda like a better Rick and Morty. Not an amazing series and it definitely did not age well, but it has it's moments.

Regardless of philosophy, what you experience is real to you. I try to live in a way where I can just enjoy life without negatively impacting others. Much of what is seen as "success" is a social construct. Obviously, this is not possible for everyone in this silent recession. Hopefully that changes within the next few years, but my hopes aren't too high. But yeah, if this is a persistent feeling and not a worldview thing, hit up a therapist.

Which forces Tiktok to sell or be banned, correct? The issue I see is: why not just create regulation for the root problems instead of just focusing on that app? The only reason I can see, is that their priorities do not lay with protecting people, but forcing a foreign business to sell it's IP to strictly American companies. Wether that decision has to do with the intentional or unintentional promotion of the US's direct involvement in the genocide in Gaza or just Big social media companies lobbying for the removal of a competitor, we can only speculate. Both sides are doing their best to push this bill, when have the (R)s collectively banded together to create positive change? The point being, reading the bill is cool and all, but you do have to ask, "Why target a specific company instead of the alleged problems of foreign adversaries getting their hands on our data?" If we had hard data collection and selling regulations, it would not only allow them to ban predatory apps (foreign or domestic) but also ensure sensitive data cannot even reach our enemy's hands.
