While KOSA has taken up much of the attention in kids online safety discussions, a bill mandating app stores conduct age verification has been sweeping states and Congress. It will be discussed at tomorrow's House hearing, and just picked up Pinterest as a supporter www.theverge.com/policy/83087...

All we need is one reporter to ask the president about the rumors that the Cabinet is discussing invoking the 25th Amendment

I've been dreading this turn for months — the war over AI scraping data is undercutting a load-bearing part of the internet, and it will probably only get worse.

Watch this. This is the precedent set by Gavin Newsom's proposition 1 & in New York. Involuntarily hospitalizing the mentally ill en masse. This is been coming for a long time. And we've been screaming about it.
President Trump wants to make it easier to forcibly hospitalize people experiencing homelessness for longer periods of time.
The executive order says shifting those with mental illness and addiction into long-term institutions will restore public order.

The Right have figured out that to get what you want you just have to be as annoying as possible, and the Left don’t even want to email one (1) person
They’ll continue to muddy the waters between lobbying and bullying and harassment and we’ll be standing there like “better take the high road”

The fact that they only needed ~1000 people to call in and email to get their way is actually pretty crazy. There are more people on some of the Discord servers I'm in that could equal their weight, and some of these are just podcast fandoms.

That there’s a police state.

Remember when we had the human capacity to be horrified by Abu Ghraib?
“In Cell 15, Plaintiff Abrego Garcia and 20 other Salvadorans were forced to kneel from approximately 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM, with guards striking anyone who fell from exhaustion. During this time, Plaintiff Abrego Garcia was denied bathroom access and soiled himself…”

Just woke up to this news, need to be a little more awake to fully process it, but the people I worked with at Polygon are some of the most kind, insightful, and passionate people I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. Support them wherever they end up. Also, fuck whoever made this decision.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.
An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."
The other said, "Take him anyway."
So they did.

This is actual voter fraud and should be prosecuted.
