One very recent[1] problem for me is that Twitter has started hiding threads behind a login-wall. As a non-user that makes it impossible for me to read beyond the first few posts. Very few blogs puts such a requirement on their readers. [1]

Can you explain how it is better? If they only scanned icloud I can choose to not use that. If they scan on my iphone my choice would be to stop using that and get a gphone instead.

It seems like you are more focused on (unspecified) policies in the west creating mass emigration than what forces the ongoing climate change can bring. I think the climate driven migrations will far exceed all migration in the other direct

I have not seen it mentioned either here or in the article[1], but in 100 metres (and the other sprint disciplines) a reaction time faster than 1/10 of a second is considered a false start[2]. [1] I might have missed it, though. [2] h
