I fear our mistakes far more than the strategy of our enemies. —Thucydides (470–400 b.c.), Pericles’ Funeral Oration

I'd like to see the resulting hilarity if Michigan bans VPNs.

No one could telecommute.

To fix a problem on a remote server, the tech would have to drive to that facility.

Subcontractors would have to work onsite.

That's not how it's worked for a long time.

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.
Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs
Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.

Absolutely, the Israeli right wing and Hamas are locked in a codependent relationship. Each relies on the other to justify ignoring the desires of their people and cling to power. The Palestinians and the Israeli people both deserve better.

A new photograph taken Thursday of Trump 🤡 has ignited an online frenzy, with the placement of a golden bald eagle in the White House Cabinet Room having created the illusion that the president was sporting a pair of “devil horns.” 👺

Neil Young wrote on his website that the “time is here.”

“FORGET AMAZON. Soon my music will not be there. It is easy to buy local. Support your community. Go to the local store. Don’t go back to the big corporations who have sold out America,” he railed.

A new twist on the WW2 and Traitor Trump 👺 with the same message. It never gets old or wrong. They should not have fought and died in vain.

His channel, MeidasTouch, puts out 15 videos a day exposing Republican failings – and it is getting bigger audiences than Joe Rogan’s. Is this the champion the American left has been waiting for?
