This is so good from Cory Doctorow on all the tricks Amazon uses to get both consumers to pay more, and how businesses on the platform end up paying it 45-51 cents on every dollar.
Plus he rightly calls for regulatory change, not just individual consumer action

Zelda Williams (the daughter of the great Robin Williams) sure had a lot to say about the “Studio Ghibli style” AI images that have been trending recently.
I think those people should read these posts and really think about what they’re doing.

Maxar has cut off satellite imagery access to Ukraine, undoubtedly due to pressure from the U.S. government.
This means that not just classified, but commercially available unclassified intelligence products are being cut off.
I now fully expect Starlink to be next.
