One sentence can turn your nutraceutical into an unapproved drug.
"Treats joint inflammation." "Prevents diabetes." "Cures cold and flu."
These cross the structure/function to drug-claim boundary — and the regulatory consequences are severe.
We broke down the four claim categories and what each requires across FSSAI, FDA, FTC and EFSA

Alright, future engineers!
**Fundamental Theorem of Calculus:** The foundational link between differentiation and integration.
Ex: `∫_a^b f'(x) dx = f(b) - f(a)`
Pro-Tip: It's why we can use antiderivatives to easily solve definite integrals! Super powerful!

I can’t say I wasn’t aware of the greenwashing that’s going on on the back of the fuel tax credit (FTC) scheme, but it doesn’t hurt keeping up to date with the rorts purpetrated by our mining and extracting industry giants. This tax-payer funded rort, just keeps getting better and better despite the revelations in independent media. Not that our #Labor govt is inclined to stamp it out apparently. Seems like we can do both, meet our paultry emission targets AND pay big poluters to, well… polute some more. How inane is that. This is govt taking the rest of us for #numpties. This BS can’t be allowed to go on. We need #AlboPM to end the FTC schemes at least for big business if he’s not gutsy enough to cut the #Farmers out as well.

“The analysis by Naru Research found the top 18 FTC scheme recipients, mostly multinational iron ore mining and coal companies, collectively received $3.3 billion in credits but only faced an estimated $150 million in compliance costs under the Safeguard Mechanism.

“Australia’s biggest industrial greenhouse gas emitters are being paid to pollute,” stated researcher Tim Baxter.”

Die "Notlösung" wird ja nicht nur dann gebraucht, wenn #Microsoft365 streikt, sondern auch dann, wenn die Verarbeitung personenbezogener Daten mit Microsoft 365 nicht mehr zulässig sein wird, weil das Data Privacy Framework ( #DPF ) wegen mangelnder Unabhängigkeit der Federal Trade Commission ( #FTC ) ungültig wird.

Es ist immer gut, einen Plan B zu haben, wenn #Schrems III kommt.

It has been four months since a hacktivist obtained 8.3 million tips submitted to organizations such as Crime Stoppers and Sandy Hook Promise. What the hacktivist found in terms of lack of security was appalling.

In the four months since Navigate360 (the parent company for P3 Global Intel and P3 Campus) learned of the breach, they have made zero public statements after the first day when they said they were investigating. Their wall of silence, and the conspiracy of silence involving programs like Safe2Say, Safe2Tell, SilentWitness, and Crime Stoppers has been unacceptable. No one has been notified, it seems. And we cannot find any state regulator that has been notified, either.

DataBreaches wrote about the disgraceful lack of transparency in a new post this week:

Broken Promises of Anonymity: Four Months Later, Still No Transparency. Now We’re Seeking Accountability.
https://databreaches.net/2026/07/20/broken-promises-of-anonymity-four-months-later-still-no-transparency-now-were-seeking-accountability/

In conjunction with that post, I filed a formal FTC complaint against Navigate360 under Section 5 of the FTC Act and also notified the National Association of Attorneys General, saying that states should be protecting their residents by investigating the breach and incident response.

And that's not all. Today, I have filed a complaint with one state attorney general's office and will be filing with others.

I will also be publishing a post this week about the Crime Stoppers data in the dataset and the ridiculous response by legal counsel for Crime Stoppers USA to inquiries by DataBreaches about what was being done to improve security.

I have not written up anything specific to all of the Canadian data in the dataset, but yes, Canadian crime stoppers and police organizations are in there, too.

Take Action:

If you know anyone in a state attorney general's office, encourage them to read up on the breach on my site, where I have also published tables with data for easy reference.

If you know anyone in the FTC, encourage them to read the complaint I filed and to act on it.

If you know any personal injury lawyer who should be handling a massive lawsuit alleging privacy harms, point them to my coverage.

Children and adults who tried to be good citizens and relied on promises of anonymity have been put in harm's way. We cannot allow this to be minimized or covered up.

FTC Strikes Settlement With John Deere On ‘Right To Repair’

If the #FTC was any good and actually doing their job right now.
#claude_design would be an immediate infringement of IP and #figma could shut them down immediately legally.

The problem is that the FTC is so weak right now, that anything is legal, stealing is no longer stealing if you have billions to back it up.

(not even talking about the ip that Anthropic and OpenAI stole in their dataset, just for that they should have been shut down)
