A little message from our CEO and founder @andyhunter777.bsky.social ahead of Anti-Prime:
What a lovely message from @bookshop.org. Glad to see them growing and growing. We CAN claim back what has been taken from us by these monstrous corporations, and it starts with things like this. Grab some books these next couple days!

While people are suddenly and uncharacteristically paying attention to media regulation, please take a moment to notice all the massive harm Brendan Carr has done to consumer protection and public safety as well

The White House’s personal censor.

I have a bit of an eye injury right now and I have blurry vision/some pain keeping my eyes open. It's manageable at the moment so taking this time to explore what it would be like to try to navigate the web if I went blind. 🧵

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

bittersweet news: today is my last day at Bluesky. 💙 i’m very thankful to the team for letting me learn many new things on the job (including React Native). i’m wishing them luck in the improbable — but inevitable — task of making decentralized social media usable and competitive.

TIL, there are cloaking services for making online ads that dynamically redirect "link tests" by Google/Meta, to hide where the ad goes. Explains why malicious ads in Google Search are still an issue.

One of my favorite annual traditions - watching Pecos Hank's year-end tornado video. It's always an artistic, cinematic masterpiece.

Click through for a trip through some of the most bumptious, pig headed SLAPP litigation you’ve ever seen.

AudioEye, a company supposedly serving the accessibility community, is suing a disability rights advocate for criticism.

Embarrassingly, Akin Gump lawyers signed this.

I agree with this— I would also like to remind everyone at BlueSky that “neutrality” is always taking the side of the oppressor against the vulnerable.

Swapped my username to my domain at https://chris.hayes.software 🚀

I like the focus of usernames being on identity and not parking some really valuable username.
