So this came out soon after -- I'm disappointed Firefox open the door to the future of selling data but I believe they are still better than Chrome, Edge, Safari which are just actively selling the data. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...
Firefox deletes promise to never sell personal data, asks users not to panic
Mozilla says it deleted promise because “sale of data” is defined broadly.

I thought this is Apple refusing to put in a backdoor and instead just disabling e2e encryption for UK users to comply with their new law. Still devastating for affected users.

In one experiment, they brought in people and had them play a rigged game of monopoly where one player couldn't lose, yet at the end, the winners would explain how their actions was why they won. The good news is by reminding people this fact, they can re-ground themself and be kinder.

Some really interesting stories about this plane (and others like the SR-71) in the Skunk Works book by Ben Rich and Leo Janos
