I can already see "drone target practice for free stuff."

The people making the product setting the rules always works out best for competition and the consumer.

I'm fairly certain I heard this in Oslo in May or June of 1987 from a live band that opened for A-ha at a free concert they gave in a park (Frogner Park, maybe?). A quick search hasn't told me the name of the band, yet. But it's a starting point.

An actual, real impeachment inquiry requires a house vote. How did that vote go? Right...

So this isn't really an impeachment inquiry. The unredacted transcript of the call has been released and the DOJ has already said nothing illegal was done. As Rep Al Green recently said, "I'm concerned that if we don't impeach this president, he will get re-elected."

The house can impeach based on anything they want to, or even nothing. It's not even going to go as far as Bill Clinton's did in the senate, and everyone knows it.

It's nothing but theater.

"with a public, free credit registry"

So it wouldn't cost anything to set up, maintain, or staff?

Cool, more free stuff from the government.

Yesterday, we learned that Horowitz referred Comey and McCabe for criminal prosecution, as well as the previous heads of other agencies. Likely some or all of: Brennan, Clapper, Yates, Lynch, and Clinton. So of course we are back to "colluding".

Headline synonyms from an honest press might be "talking", or "negotiating".

Unless, of course, it was something along the lines of "I'll have more flexibility after my last election."

Well, some of them are already being replaced by robots, and when they can do it at scale, they will all be.

Sounds like they are using Windows.

Hmmm...fair point

People care way too much about what other people say, think, or believe. How about you live your own damn life and leave other people alone to live theirs.

"Does anyone deserve to have a billion dollars?"

I don't want the government, or anyone else, deciding what I "deserve".

Not sure if interesting or horrifying. Did Futurerama get it right with heads-in-a-jar?

Yes, but that makes them a publisher, not a platform. Publisher have different, and much more in the way of liability.

Reddit has a 4-year history (at least) of quarantining then banning subs that the admins don't like, regardless of 'site rules'. Suddenly, child porn, calls to violence, or doxxing are posted from accounts that are not regular users of the subs in question to "justify" pulling the plug.

Now that the Chinese are part owners, expect it to go full '1984'.

"Enemies" implies that Google is a victim here.

Well, the "attacks on the oil tankers" didn't work, so something had to be done.
