Robber Barons gonna rob. It's the Silicon Valley model. We've all talked about the playbook for slowly eroding services and adding intrusive new subscription models, advertising where it wasn't, etc. IT IS THE SILICON VALLE

I agree, the irony is astounding morally, but legally easily explainable: the constitution protects us from the government, not private enterprise. IMO, the government should protect us from private enterprise, when said enterprise becomes

As a data scientist, I'd have to know the context: how many threads in the same scope have been flagged to death? I realize that my observations are not a representative sample, but I would estimate for every 1 thread about the current

He is calling it a ruse because other Trump appointees told their employees that Elon can go pound sand, and he couldnt bear to face the fact that he got told no. God what a fucking man-child. The most insecure human I have even witnessed.
