Never thought to connect Gab back to net neutrality; interesting reflection here.

There are a few yellow flags in this article for me. Quick and efficient sounds good, but are those the most important values in policing? What values do they stand in tension with? It’s great that there are policies against using a ALPR database for personal reasons, but these policies regularly get violated. No, these aren’t videosurveillance cameras, but that doesn’t make them harmless.

Hooray for additional bike infrastructure!

Great news for a tough Monday! This is one of my favorite comics, I love podcasts, and North is writing scripts. Perfect combination.

Admire what Josh is doing here. I’ve been rethinking my own social media presence recently and want to take some cues here.

Grumpy about this this morning.

Very interesting read. I have never been a Republican, but I frequently voted GOP prior to 2016. Because my personal political views have shifted since then, it’s hard to say whether I would vote for a GOP that throws off the Trump baggage, but I do hope such a party one day re-emerges. I may not agree with it, but we certainly need it.

Bad faith edits were the main reason why I’ve never jumped on the “edit button” train, so I think this is a good way to handle this.

Interesting read on potential stakes of France’s presidential election.

Good article on our past optimism for Putin.

Fascinated by this article for so many reasons. First, it’s a great example of meaningful practices in online spaces; second, it brings it back to the need for more, smaller platforms.

I have only been reading Techdirt for a short amount of time, but I increasingly appreciate Masnick’s perspectives on issues like this.

Worrying stuff out of Utah.

Content moderation is a necessity, and Musk’s take here is wildly irresponsible.

Losing dumb TVs is not an acceptable option.

This story just keeps getting worse.

Seems to me that folks truly concerned about the integrity of women’s sports would have more to say about this.

This matches rhetoric I’m reading while doing research on Gab. We need respectable conservative movements in the U.S., but our contemporary mainstream right is flirting with these ideas instead of denouncing them. It’s troubling

Faut pas oublier ces liens quand-même.

Litmus tests like this are making me even more worried about the future.

Wish that I’d been paying better attention to this legislation. Libraries are pillars of our communities and ought to retain partisan independence.

Faut pas transformer l’Ukraine un héros irréprochable.

Insightful piece on trolling and feeding trolls.

All platforms moderate content, most content moderation isn’t censorship.

Hard to think of a worse use of the OGL than this. I’m already grumpy about NFTs, but this is making me mad.
