On some level, the all star legal team Comey slapped together has to be disappointed. They did the law nerd version of AVENGERS ASSEMBLE and were ready to be the Great Men Of History Opposing The Vile Tyrant (tm) and found out they were fighting a paraplegic rhesus monkey. No climactic showdown.

i think if you want to have those disgusting LED headlights on your car, you should have to do a test where they blast you point blank with your own headlights and then you have 15 seconds to successfully complete some sort of vision-based task, and if you can't do it they push your car off a cliff

Software utilities, I think, must be treated the same way: regulated (including price) and operated under oversight. Otherwise, they're just a robber-baron monopoly with a stranglehold on the economy.

And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

Some encouraging news on the recent Google sideloading debacle.
Jumping through extra hoops to sideload is still annoying but this does give developers an option to still develop for Android outside of Google's ecosystem and for users to sideload on-device.

Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.
Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.
