Kudos to the camera man. He decided NOPE - ain’t letting him pull this shit. Not today. Not on my watch.

US Tech industry's coziness & alignment with Trump WH has the side effect of making countries not want to adopt American technology if they can avoid it. In other words, it surrenders soft power. Elon Musk is making the risks very clear https://t.co/GkVMelsfbK

Exactly right. Citizens United is the most misunderstood decision in SCT history. The mistake was SpeechNow. We're in the 1st Circuit to fix it, and end Super PACs. https://t.co/J4isN4yMxg

[David Gaw @davidgaw]

Musk's contribution is through his super PAC and has nothing to do with Citizens United, which was about people acting through corporations. Individuals have been able to spend unlimited money on independent ads since Buckley v. Valeo (1976), and via super PACs since SpeechNow v. FEC (2010).

And so it begins: ©-maximalism breaking AI: Seedance 2 refused the following prompt, blaming concerns about copyright. Hey ©-maximalists: Where do I go to license the right to create a cartoon "in the style of a 1960s cartoon"?

"A cartoon character in the style of a 1960s cartoon approaches a soda machine; he puts twenty-five cents into the machine and presses a button; the machine shakes a bit but then does nothing; the character gets angry and shakes the machine, but nothing happens."

#IssueOne finds OVERWHELMING support in America for critical anti-corruption reform, including limits to Super PACs (thus de-"super"-ifying them).

When more is less. Why is it so hard for #Bluebikes to realize that having no docks (as none open at Harvard Sq) makes BlueBikes worthless.
