The EU wants to implement an even worse legislation called Chat Control, in which a trained AI will scan every single one of your messages and photos before they're even sent. They want to destroy end-to-end encryption and scan every single one of your messages in the name of "child protection" from predators.

They want to end privacy with the excuse of protecting children, giving them the possibility to utilize this legislation for far worse. From political expression to free speech, this legislation could put an end to all of it. Everybody in the EU will be affected. You, your family, your friends, your personal feelings and ideas. They will see everything.

If you want to fight it, please, i ask you to visit this website and contact your representatives with a written email, show them the population is against this.

Remember one thing: THEY'RE voting. NOT us. This is not what our democracy says. We've got 2 weeks to do the biggest push against this law. You have to act NOW.

District Judge Amit Mehta said Google's billions in payments to keep its search engine as the default on web browsers violated US law. "After having carefully considered and weighed the witness testimony and evidence, the court reaches the following conclusion: Google is a monopolist, and it has acted as one to maintain its monopoly," Mehta wrote.

Got a quick, easy action item for anyone with a couple minutes to spare.

The Wildland Firefighter Paycheck Protection Act is back in the Senate. If it does not pass, federal wildland firefighters will be facing a 50% paycut here in a couple months (yeah, I said FIFTY). I don't know about you, but I don't know anyone who would keep working their job if their pay got cut by fifty-percent. And right now, that cut is poised to come right at the start of the worst of fire season. I'm sure I don't need to explain why this is NOT GREAT.

Please use this handy dandy form to contact your representatives and ask them to pass this act. Call them too, if that's a thing you've got the bandwidth for!
