Copyright Should Not Enable Monopoly
There’s a crisis of creativity in mainstream American culture. We have fewer and fewer studios and record labels and fewer and fewer platforms online that serve independent artists and creators.

Finally, a bank (is EQ a bank?) that supports passkeys. 🤩
Manulife also supports passkeys, but not synced passkeys.
Yes, synced passkeys are potentially worse than device-bound, but I think I am qualified to determine my own threat model thank you very much.

Grindr’s AI forays amount to “data surveillance,” EFF’s Paige Collings told Gazetteer SF. “There are real life consequences for very vulnerable communities,” and if LGBTQ+ protections are weakened, “the risk of this over the next few years is heightened.”

I haven't noticed the Canada Post strike much, yet. I probably will when some overseas parcels reach Canada. I much prefer Canada Post for last-mile delivery though, for a very simple reason: They're the only deliveryservice with a key to every apartment building.
