@Comcast, @ATT, @Charter and @CenturyLink ran an astroturfing effort which "... used real people's names without their consent, with third-party firms hired by the industry faking consent records" (Ars Technica). They posted over 8 million comments opposing net neutrality.

I hope there's serious jail time for the blatant market manipulation of #GME #Gamestop today by the hedge funds who blocked retail buys to cover their riskiest shorts.

@Miller_Congress Why are you quoting Hitler...

[DoctorRick. VOTE these Republicans bastards out! @DoctorRickD]

74 million Americans voted for a man that can't even denounce a group that attacked and occupied the US Capitol. Unbelievable

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Trump has still not uttered a single word of criticism for the domestic terrorists who stormed the US Capitol today. Instead, he said he "loved" them.

He must leave. Now.

@googlephotos That’s the site I mentioned in my initial post with the thread of about 700 people talking about this issue with no response or resolution

[Ben D. Wallace @benthinksit]

Warning about @Google backup: 100s-1000s of my irreplaceable pics in @GooglePhotos disappeared w/o a trace (most of 2017). 700+ others reporting the same in support thread with no answers at all. I'll find an alternative & may leave Drive+Gmail too

[Ben D. Wallace @benthinksit]

@googlephotos Yes I tried logging in

[Ben D. Wallace @benthinksit]

@googlephotos Thanks for replying. I used every Google Photos help article I could find, probably spent 6-8 hours trying to figure it out. I assume it was a server outage and mine + many other people's photos are just gone forever, but I never got an answer

@RedCross are your helicopters being used to intimidate and endanger protestors? https://t.co/B4pLhxtwCM

A little late announcing this, I recently had my first book chapter published (big thanks to co-author @IlanKelman), focused on #climatechange #governance in #NYC: https://t.co/NyIzmWGkBR

According to NASA "during its life cycle a hurricane can expend as much energy as 10,000 nuclear bombs" https://t.co/oVm7FYQLFp
