Also Italy's AGCOM, the most unhinged of the national regulators enforcing the DSA + other important laws, tried to fine Cloudflare 14.2 million Euros and @eastdakota.com is NOT having it.

This is not under DSA, it's under Italy's bonkers "Piracy Shield" law.

Gleninagh Castle • The Burren • County Clare

This towerhouse was built by the O’Loughlins who called themselves the ‘Princes of the Burren’.

When it was originally rendered and whitewashed, it would have made a distinctive landmark on the grey rocky shore of the Burren.

Netflix has emailed subscribers about their acquisition of Warner.
Am I the only one who thinks them buying WB is NOT good news for consumers or the industry?

That "rage bait" is the word of the year should surprise absolutely nobody. Sad and sorry state of affairs and a damning reflection on the level of discourse we're all engaged in and subjected to www.theguardian.com/media/2025/...
‘Rage bait’ named word of the year by Oxford University Press
Existence of phrase – to describe content intended to make you angry – shows people are aware of manipulation tactics used online, says Oxford Dictionary publisher

Why is one random shooting “worse” than another? Why is it about race / nationality/ ethnicity and not gun control?
