A couple of years ago I was talking to a Stanford undergrad who was telling me about a tech bro type in her dorm, and I told her to remember that guy so years later she could say “I knew he was an asshole before anyone else did.” I suspect you and I were thinking of the same group of bro’s.

Someone tipped off the cops. Then when they interviewed the pair, the daughter looked at Facebook messages to recall details. Cops got a warrant and Meta complied. If you haven’t already downloaded Signal… https://jezebel.com/nebraska-mom-pleads-guilty-to-giving-abortion-pills-to-1850621217

Someone tipped off the police that Celeste had a stillbirth and buried the remains, and then cops obtained a warrant for Facebook messages between her and her mother.
Facebook parent company Meta complied and provided the messages, in which the pair allegedly discussed ending Celeste's pregnancy with pills. A friend of Celeste's also told the police she was there when Celeste took the first abortion pill. (Most people charged for self-managed abortion were reported by health care workers or friends and acquaintances.) Celeste was charged as an adult and plead guilty in May; she faces a two-year prison sentence.

If experts cannot convene to even talk about what the role of government should be in addressing harmful misinformation and strategic disinformation targeting our elections and election workers, then … maybe we’ll be fine, but recent history suggests that democracy may be on the line.

I’ve never understood why the standard protocol for gate agent announcements isn’t to state the airline and flight number (and optionally destination) EVERY TIME THEY USE THE MIC.

Another example from the Mastodon side from this post: https://kolektiva.social/@blackflower/110554861028194309 I can see the image and the beginning of the post but there’s no way to get to the full post. And the link only copies the link to the image.

Honestly if these kinds of things were addressed and y’all added RSS support (mostly for newsletters I subscribe to, but Kill the Newsletter seems to be a nice service for that), Flipboard could be my one-stop shop for news…
