Tuesday, I’ll flee D.C.’s 90-something temperatures for the 100-something temperatures of Las Vegas–but as I’ve realized over previous trips to that desert city for the Black Hat information-security conference, it really is a dry heat.
In addition to the posts below, my Patreon readers got a recap of a very long day of travel on Thursday of the previous week that saw me returning home about 21 hours after I’d stepped off of the front porch that morning.
7/30/2024: These Are the Services Seeing the Biggest Uptick in Passkey Adoption, PCMag
What I thought would be an easy writeup of an embargoed copy of a Dashlane study about passkey adoption among users of that password manager wound up enlightening me about Facebook’s support of that authentication standard. And once again, I found Facebook’s documentation out of date and incorrect.
7/31/2024: Here’s How Microsoft Wants to Shield You From Abusive AI–With Help From Congress, PCMag
I had ambitions of attending this downtown-D.C. event Tuesday afternoon featuring Microsoft’s vice chair and president Brad Smith, but my schedule ran away from me and I watched the proceedings online. And then I didn’t finish writing this piece until Wednesday morning, although that at least let me nod to news that day of the impending introduction of a new bill targeting AI impersonations of people.
8/2/2024: Circuit Court Throws a Stop Sign in Front of FCC’s Net-Neutrality Rules, PCMag
Reading this unanimous opinion from three judges–one named by Clinton, another a Biden appointee–that the Federal Communications Commission didn’t have the authority to put broadband providers into one of two possible regulatory buckets left me feeling like I’d been taking crazy pills over the last 20 years of the net-neutrality debate, during which the FCC has repeatedly done just that.
8/3/2024: Justice Department Sues TikTok, Alleging Massive Child-Privacy Violations, PCMag
I woke up Saturday thinking that somebody at PCMag was already covering the DOJ lawsuit against TikTok, but nobody had grabbed that story. So I set aside part of that morning to read the DOJ’s complaint, get a comment out of a TikTok publicist and write this post summarizing the department’s allegations.

CW: Long thread/17
The work of enforcers like DoJ antitrust boss #JonathanKanter, #FTC chair #LinaKhan, and #SEC chair #GaryGensler is at the heart of #Bidenomics: muscular, fearless deployment of existing regulatory authority to make life better for Americans.
Of course, "existing regulatory authority" isn't the last word. The judges filling stolen seats on the illegitimate #SupremeCourt invented the #MajorQuestionsDoctrine and have used it as a club to attack Biden's photocopier-kickers.

A 2003 federal law called the Higher Education Relief Opportunities for Students Act, or #HEROES Act, allows student loan debt relief during wartime or national #emergencies.
Biden relied upon the HEROES Act when he unveiled plans to #cancel up to $10,000 in #federal #student #debt for Americans making under $125,000 and $20,000 for recipients of Pell grants awarded to students from lower-income families.
The program drew swift legal challenges. Two lawsuits - one by six conservative-leaning states and the other by two student loan borrowers who opposed the plan's eligibility requirements - prompted lower courts to block it.
In the case brought by individual borrowers, Texas-based U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman, a Trump appointee, in November found the plan violated the #MajorQuestionsDoctrine - a ruling that the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declined to put on hold pending appeal.
The major questions doctrine gives judges broad discretion to invalidate executive agency actions unless Congress clearly authorized them in legislation.
The justices used the doctrine since Biden took office in 2021 to #block the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from extending eviction protections for cash-strapped residential renters, #stymie his COVID-19 vaccination-or-testing mandate for large businesses and #restrict the Environmental Protection Agency's power to regulate carbon emissions from power plants.
