Starting Jan. 1, traditional Medicare recipients in Washington state will face a new hurdle to get certain procedures covered — private AI companies that get paid based on how many claims they deny.

“Requiring temporary visitors here for a vacation or business to surrender five years of their #socialmedia to the #US will send the message that the #American commitment to #freespeech is pretense, not practice. This is not the behavior of a country confident in its #freedoms.”
Well all those scientific conferences better plan on not holding their meetings in the US for the next however long. Nobody will come from outside the country!
This is another great way to isolate us from the rest of the world. 🤯

If the #European #commissioners could just get their shit together and leave #X, that would, minimally, force a bunch of #journalists to learn some new technology.
Why they are using a social media system that is most likely downweighting their posts, and could cut them off on a whim, is beyond me.

After the little Musk-Sikorski spat this, and Musk's statement to abolish the EU (after the Commission fined X), let's ask ourselves simply:
HOW ARE EUROPEAN COMMISSIONERS USING X NOW?
In this 🧵 I'll document it, Commissioner by Commissioner. When did they last post? How often do they post?
