3/ Don't let anyone — not even the US Secretary of State — tell you that the European Commission's €120 million enforcement against Elon Musk’s X under the Digital Service Act is about censorship, writes Daphne Keller. It’s just the EU enforcing some normal, boring requirements of its law, she says.

It’s part of a number of bills he signed into law. Incredible leadership at the state level. And they took care to make certain it only simplifies the flipping of the switch to stop properly defined tracking (already in CA law). 2/2 www.gov.ca.gov/2025/10/08/g...

The Court snaps back at the suggestion the jury verdict in the Flo lawsuit had any jurors who were "irrationally crazed in their hatred of Meta." 2/3 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

And...yes. Another big AI decision. When a win is maybe not a win. The AI training is fair use cult may be very disappointed by Meta's Summary Judgment "victory" in its copyright suit. Be very very careful not to be spun by Meta's proxies and advocates.

Yes. Not a big deal. Not a language actually used for anything being discussed either which is all in Java, JavaScript, and probably some python.

They’re doing super well actually. This is sort irrelevant chatter.

Are you talking about DOJ? I strongly disagree. They were disciplined in bringing the lawsuit, entirely up on the business and issues and are doing super well.
