Only a proposal, but if it comes into effect I will never go to the US again. I've nothing to hide, but they're soft in the head if they think I'll share five years of social media history and ten years of personal data just to go on holiday there.

ChatGPT's cutoff date for 4o lies in 2024 still. That can lead to bizarre exchanges. I wanted to discuss current events, so told it the lay of the land, including DOGE and what it was doing. Current events are so far outside the norm, it wouldn't actually believe me. This reply is real...

New update dropped for my LG TV.
It demanded "renewed consent", but snuck in content fingerprinting I suddenly had to opt out of.
They wanted to fingerprint everything I watch, even content from external devices. Exit internet connection.
These guys are soft in the head.

The US crisis is the catastrophic widening of old cracks: judicial capture and winner-takes-all extremism, now weaponized by bad faith actors. Fixing this takes deep reform, not in the interest of the ruling parties. It would give independents a chance, to the detriment of them both. Now what?

If the Supreme Court deliberately softened their language to avoid provoking a direct constitutional confrontation, then the rule of law itself was placed on the altar, not just Garcia. A judiciary that cannot or will not enforce its rulings against executive defiance becomes toothless.
