The Trump Administration declaring that if you worked to block the distribution of child sexual abuse material or revenge porn online or stopped child predators or scammers from using an internet platform, you’re now ineligible for an H1B visa.

Sometimes it’s too on the nose even for me.
Holy shit.

Reuters reporting that new admin instructions on visas are if you worked at a platform in trust & safety or content moderation or on fact checking or online safety at an platform you *and your loved ones* are ineligible for H-1B visa.

...which is intended as a process that starts with social exclusion is a diversion from 'actual politics' is an utter betrayal of political will to struggle whether or not you dress it up as Leninism, feminism, religion or 'biological realism'.

As set out in this thread, the causes of the court backlog are chronic lack of funding and absurd inefficiency.

The government has made no proposals to address either. Their answer is to remove juries.

Rather than fix the leaking roof, their solution is to burn the house down.
Here is a list of reasons why some of my hearings and trials this year have been delayed and kicked off into the long grass, stuck in our record court backlog. Serious allegations which will now be tried *years* after the event. 🧵👇

This is somewhat nerdy/technical but reveals utterly woeful practices at the OBR – where they relied on free Wordpress plugins to protect some of the most sensitive economic data the UK publishes.

Absolutely dismal stuff, and not just one junior staffer screwing up.
