Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.
Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.
Their inaction is deadly.
