  1. “Security Has a Beef With Photography”

    The Latina in the safety vest had a beef with me. The company had surveilled me on camera. “What are you doing here,” she asked, right in front of the Visitor Center. I replied that I was taking a pictures. She said, “No photos allowed. Delete them.”

    I did not delete any photographs, instead I published one.

  3. Ads raise my blood pressure. Often, I will even abandon watching something because of them. Not worth it. I HATE ads. I HATE billboards. I HATE that one can't even have a moment to think when pumping gas.

    Incessant. Over-stimulating. Rage-inducing. Ugly, unnecessary ads.

    Remember to not buy what's advertised to you!

  5. Does the Board of BacTech Environmental Corporation Expect Shareholders to Wink at Years of Non-Compliance?

    I’ve just written to the investor relations people at BacTech Environmental Corporation to get some background information on two extraordinary resolutions included on this year’s proxy form.

    Both resolutions have to do with the Board’s failure to hold an annual general meeting for several years in a row.

    As a result of insufficient financial resources for the years ended 2021, 2022 and 2023, the Corporation has not held its annual general meeting of shareholders pursuant to section 133 of the Canada Business Corporation’s [sic] Act. The Corporation has complied with its continuous disclosure obligations and filed, among other things, its audited and interim financial statements…as required.

    There is (on page 9 of the management circular) a broad resolution asking shareholders to “approve, consent, and/or waive the Corporation’s deficiencies with respect to providing notice of and holding its annual general meeting.” It’s a request for blanket absolution, extending from non-compliance with section 79 of the Ontario Securities Act (which has to do with sending out regular financial statements to Ontario shareholders) to past appointments of auditors, and “all past acts of the Board, all lawful acts, contracts, proceedings, appointments, and payments” over the last four years or so.

    Another resolution, Ratification of Stock Option Plan (on page 8 of the circular), asks shareholders to ratify and approve retroactively “all past issuance of stock options granted by the board” for fiscal years 2021-2024, “notwithstanding any defect or non-compliance with annual general meeting requirements.”

    Right now, I am set on voting against both resolutions.

    The Board appears to be looking for release from its obligations to shareholders and legal cover. Essentially, these two resolutions ask shareholders to do for the Board of BacTech Environmental what the Board of BacTech Environmental failed to do for shareholders: namely, bring the Board, and the company, into compliance with Canadian securities law. And while I am aware of the company’s cash flow problems, as indicated by this chart, I still have some trouble accepting the explanation that “insufficient financial resources” are the reason for the board’s failure to hold an annual general meeting. It seems more like a lack of resourcefulness — or, worse, negligence or indifference. This impression may simply be due to the fact that the Board has in its communications with shareholders done a poor job at explaining itself.

    I would also like to know (and this is the question I put to the BacTech investor relations people) whether the Board applied for a Court order extending the time for calling an annual meeting in 2021, 2022, and 2023, as described in Section 133 subsection 3 of the Business Corporations Act. A quick search on SEDAR didn’t bring up anything, but maybe there’s another place where a record of these applications would be kept. Timely application for extension each year would at least indicate that the Board was making a good faith effort to comply with the law and was trying to do right by shareholders.

    At the moment, the answer to the question asked by my title seems to be “yes,” but I am open to hearing the Board’s side. If I get a response from BacTech before the 12 September voting deadline, I will post it here and revisit my proxy.

    Update: I heard back from the CEO of BacTech just a few hours after posting this. See this post.

  7. #Judges appointed by presidents of both parties have often agreed. None have taken punitive action to try to force #compliance, however, allowing the admin’s defiance of orders to go on for weeks or even months in some instances.

    Outside #legal analysts say #courts typically are slow to begin #contempt proceedings for #noncompliance,
    especially while their rulings are under appeal.

  9. A quotation from Barbara Ehrenreich

    No matter that patriotism is too often the refuge of scoundrels. Dissent, rebellion, and all-around hell-rousing remain the true duty of patriots.

    Barbara Ehrenreich (1941-2022) American feminist, journalist, political activist
    Essay (1988), “Introduction: Family Values,” The Worst Years of Our Lives (1990)

  10. @RickiTarr Thank you, yes. This is kind of pretty much why, for so many of us, with all of our slightly different reasons, this place is, really, fine. #fedifrens #fedizens #noncompliance

  11. (16/N) Three more threat types defined:

    Data #disclosure

    An adversary makes somebody’s confidential data available to unauthorized parties.

    Manufacturing cooperation

    An adversary hides from somebody the potentially harmful consequences of their own decisions and actions, or denies them the option of avoiding such consequences, even when they are aware of them.

    #NonCompliance

    Contrary to what somebody expects and trusts in, an adversary does not follow laws, documented policies or contractual obligations; or does not abide by what is perceived as conventions, or unwritten rules, in the respective context.

  12. (14/N) Having familiarized ourselves with categories of adversaries, their main goals and their respective, overall "modus operandi", let's look at the types of threats posed by them.

    Again, it pays to focus on types of threats: We don't want to become mainly alert-triggered, but proactive. There are several frameworks we can borrow ideas from, most notably the LINDDUN framework that is geared toward threats to privacy, and can be extended a bit to cover more ground.

    First, our list of threat types:

    Our definitions of these, for our context:

    Linking

    An adversary can figure out connections and relationships between formerly isolated items of interest.

    Identifiying

    An adversary can link items of interest directly to a natural person.

NYC Bar Association released a report on Tuesday asserting that #Congress has #constitutional authority to establish binding ethics rules for #SupremeCourt, urging lawmakers to create new mechanisms for holding Justices accountable. The report recommends the formation of a Judicial Investigation Panel and an Office of the Inspector General for Supreme Court, citing recent revelations of #ethical #noncompliance by #Justices that have eroded public confidence in the Court. nycbar.org/reports/the-supreme

  14. Have they simply stopped monitoring the logging of native forests in NSW?

    "The NSW budget rejected any funding for a mandatory monitoring program of forestry operations. This runs counter to international standards. Suzanne Arnold reports on Australia’s forestry fail."

    "The lack of funding came in spite of pleas from the critically important Forest Monitoring & Improvement Program, which monitors NSW native logging, and the 20 year Regional Forest Agreements."

    "The Montreal Process Working Group framework underpins and is the foundation of Australia’s state and federal forestry approvals and operations. Scientific and legal evidence provided in reports, legal challenges, and other research provides compelling evidence showing Australia is in non-compliance with the entire MPG framework."

  15. On Feb 2, #Twitter filed a motion to vacate the #nondisclosure order & #JackSmith’s team sought a #contempt order from Howell. Howell held Twitter in contempt & approved #fines beginning at $50k/day, doubling for each day of #noncompliance.
    “The court adopted that suggestion, noting Twitter was sold for over $40B & its owner’s net worth was over $180B. Twitter did not object to the sanctions formula,” the appeals court noted.
    Twitter did not fully comply until Feb 9, resulting in the $350k fine.
