In Finland, media education has been part of schools since the 1950s and is woven into the curriculum. Students learn about propaganda, misleading statistics, and even create their own media messages to understand how narratives shape perception.

I used to drive regularly through West Virginia and was always amazed at the number of cars/houses with confederate flags. My thought was always, “you all seriously need to read up on the history of your state.”

I was part of a working group last year on a framework on software liability, which was going to be pushed by a Harris administration. This—default device passwords—was discussed in the context of standards of care (minimum reqs to avoid liability).

But anyway, we can’t have nice things.
