I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: If you love freedom but don’t care if it applies to everyone, what you actually love is privilege.
Israel is working with Meta to censor pro-Palestinian posts across the world
!Not long ago, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Meta was turning over a new leaf, that it now has “masculine energy” and that means no more censorship. Apparently, men don’t do censorship, only women do…
Anyway, it turns out the new Meta (which is under the control of the manly Zuckerberg) is just as censorious as the old Meta (which was also under the control of the manly Zuckerberg). Only difference now is Zuckerberg is pandering to Trump rather than Biden (Trump being so committed to free speech that he’s getting rid of DEI books but keeping copies of Mein Kampf).
Meta says it runs free speech platforms, but the good people at Drop Site News have revealed Zuckerberg is not just pandering to Trump but Netanyahu. They have obtained data showing Meta has complied with 94% of censorship requests from the Israeli government (governments have direct channels to Meta to trigger content review)."

'ChatGPT has been trained on my IP, my labor, my personal data. And I did not consent. You know, "The Guardian" has effectively got rid of more than 100 journalists.
We actually leave the building next week. And shortly afterwards,
it signed a syndication deal with OpenAI. Or, as I think of it,
it married its rapist''

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
APT 3.0.0 is released.
This marks a sort of point of finalization for the work done in 2.9.x.
I did not quite get everything done I wished I would, but also more than I anticipated :D
Some more work is going to be needed on modernize-sources and making error messages from the new solver translatable, but we can do those in 3.0.x releases.
Ooh wonder if I can use it to make my dog talk!
