FWIW Fed IT Training emphasizes that publicly available data can become personally identifiable information when combined.

This is no different - the sensitivity these data combined is greater that the indicidual parts.

NEW: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.

Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.

This man ripped off teachers, nurses, small business owners - people from all walks of life and professions. Some lost their life savings. Not only did Trump let him out of prison, he also doesn’t have to pay back the victims.

Can I let you in on a little secret?

Billionaire philanthropy isn’t charity.

It’s PR to distract you from low wages, labor exploitation, and a tax system that’s rigged for the rich.

I HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT "CHARITY"

But the shorthand version is this: it provides a stopgap for things the functional govt. should provide.

But it does it with little oversight and huge caveats, imposed by the charitable org donors who want the orgs to play ball their way.

Okay, so a few weeks ago a slanderous campaign was launched against a female FBI agent, accusing her of planting the January 6th pipe bombs.

Today, CNN reports that the FBI has arrested a man they say planted the pipe bombs.

Current US Policy:

If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it?

Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on “suspected” drug boats in the Caribbean.

He served for 37 years.
