I also read that they only have 138 million in cash to cover the 175 mil bond, even despite being outside of the jurisdiction of NY.

I’m sure there’s no problem here for the company.

Step one: Overinflate the assets of the bail bond company.

Step two: Claim the assets of the company and get loans based on those inflated values.

Step three: If found to be fraudulent in said valuation, take it to court.

Step four: Go back to step one.

“it’s not known whether the leak came from within the company or one of its vendors.”

Isn’t it time that big tech companies and their sale of private data get regulated? I see a giant class-action lawsuit in the making here.

Unfucking believable, also the grift continues “Avast has been acquired by Gen Digital, a firm that contains Norton, Avast, LifeLock, Avira, AVG, CCLeaner, and ReputationDefender, among other security businesses.”

We are in straight idiocracy-land right now, when Kandiss Taylor launched her 2022 political campaign she literally painted this on her bus. snopes.com/…/kandiss-taylor-jesus-guns-babies/

The Mozilla Foundation found that in late 2023, 92 percent of the automakers reviewed provided drivers with little to no control over their personal data. Additionally, 84 percent shared user data with third parties.

Why isn’t there more consumer outrage over this? And why haven’t lawmakers addressed this on a national level, given the potential dangers posed by this data collection?

Writing from a privacy perspective remember, browser add-ons can potentially make it easier to fingerprint or recognize an individual. But still, I can’t help but love this new FF feature.

Given that Googles estimated annual revenue is between 160 - 180 billion, that 74 million is only 0.04625% (if taken from the lower estimate) I’m sure they would chalk it up to just the price of doing business.

Oh yes the Chinese Communist Party, the cake and eat it too party, where it somehow is able to access global markets and benefit from international trade rules, freely able to meddle in international affairs while embellishing its own interests.

It’s mind blowing how the desperation of late stage capitalism allows the CCP to operate within these frameworks.

“President Ferdinand Marcos Jr strongly condemned the shooting”

It blows my mind that this corrupt family is still in power.

Threats of violence, sounds like a Jordan MOB call. Guess Jimmy hasn’t changed his attitude much since helping to orchestrate January 6th for Trump, voting against election results, defending Trump during his impeachment, opposing Trumps investigations, voting to repeal the Affordable Care Act, backing Trumps ridiculous Mexican border wall, backing Trump’s efforts to roll back regulations on environmental regulations, financial regulations, and labor regulations… etc etc etc

Seems a bit rich after their last supreme leader is facing 91 felony charges across 4 criminal indictments.

I see a pattern here…

One of the primary methods Hitler employed to control the media was censorship. Upon assuming power, he established the Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda.

The Ministry implemented strict censorship policies, ensuring that only content aligned with Nazi ideology was allowed to be disseminated. Any dissenting voices or information critical of the regime were met with threats of sovereign rights, property and freedom of speech suppressed, those who were found guilty were often eliminated altogether.

Come on its a walk in the park, everyone knows that Nanosheet GAA transistors behave differently than familiar FinFETs, so EDA and other tool and IP makers had to build their products from scratch. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Silencing the media can be accomplished through several methods, such as censorship, self-censorship, and prior restraint by a controlling state or government. By leveraging this power, an entity can more easily manipulate the narrative and stifle dissenting voices, thereby directing the flow of propaganda. If we introduce the notion of being anti-Semitic and the fear of being perceived as racist, it becomes even easier for genocide to commence.

"The media is the most powerful institution in the world, because it has the power to shape the perceptions of the public."

Great governance! let’s allocate more taxes offshore, meanwhile the Pentagon failed a fifth consecutive audit last November, when it could only account for 39 percent of its $3.5 trillion in assets. Nevertheless, the military received $858 billion which is only 10% increase in the last omnibus spending bill, for the record this is not a partisan issue.

And let’s not talk about the Feds 3.3 billion dollar spending spree on ridiculously expensive furniture during the pandemic.

nypost.com/…/federal-agencies-spent-3-3-billion-o…

The military industrial complex is a money sponge, the Fed cries inflation worries while misappropriating funds and the border wall is simply a distraction, these multifaceted spending bills have become an absurd slush fund source for both sides of the aisle.
