To all the #Government[s] of the world: You subject us to lofty ideals like #DataLocalization and invasive surveillance like #ChatControl in the pretense of #privacy, #security and #LawEnforcement. Why then do you forcefully enroll us into this crooked global #Surveillance dragnet that's not in either of our interests? That's a betrayal of your entire nation!

    We need iron fisted #regulations and heavy monetary #penalties against such #aggressive and #abusive #cabals instead.

  7. #California Governor #GavinNewsom signed #SB243, a law regulating #AIcompanion #chatbots to protect #children and vulnerable users. The law, effective January 1, 2026, requires companies to implement #safetyprotocols, including #ageverification, #contentfilters, and #crisisprevention measures. It also imposes #penalties for illegal #deepfakes and mandates transparency from large AI companies. techcrunch.com/2025/10/13/cali #tech #media #news

  8. My take on the penalty?

    If a player slips while taking the penalty, touching it two times, the penalty has to be retaken, regardless of the result. This can only be done once.

    Alternatively, the penalty point should be rather a 0.5m circle, avoiding slumps.

  9. #Trump has fired the director of the #Consumer #Financial #Protection Bureau, #RohitChopra, in the latest #purge of a #Biden admin ofcl.

    Chopra was one of the more important #regulators from the previous admin. Chopra’s tenure saw the removal of #MedicalDebt from #CreditReports & limits on #overdrafts #penalties, all based on the premise that the financial system could be fairer & more competitive in ways that helped #consumers.

  10. A #mining company has been #fined close to $221,000 for almost 30 instances of discharging waste into the #environment without authorization in southeastern #BritishColumbia.

    On Aug. 8, the #BCMinistryOfEnvironment handed #TeckCoal Ltd. — now operating as #ElkValleyResources — two administrative #penalties based on #WasteDisposal issues over two years at its Elkview operations near #SparwoodBC.

    This is not the first time the Elkview #coal mining operations have been penalized for #unauthorized waste disposals. Two years ago, Teck Coal received a penalty of close to $200,000 for several discharges in 2020.

    Teck Coal has faced tens of millions of dollars in fines for #contaminating #waterways in B.C. over the years.

    It is also now dealing with allegations of dumping harmful substances into waters frequented by fish in the province's southeastern region. #EnvironmentCanada laid five charges against the company in July, and they have not been tested in court.

    A court hearing in that matter is scheduled for Oct. 10.

  11. The Federal Trade Commission today announced a final rule that will ⭐️combat #fake #reviews and testimonials⭐️ by prohibiting their sale or purchase
    and allow the agency to seek #civil #penalties against knowing violators.

    “Fake reviews not only waste people’s time and money, but also pollute the marketplace and divert business away from honest competitors,” said FTC Chair Lina M. Khan.

    “By strengthening the FTC’s toolkit to fight #deceptive #advertising, the final rule will ⭐️ protect Americans from getting cheated,
    put businesses that unlawfully game the system on notice,
    and promote markets that are fair, honest, and competitive.”

    The FTC held an informal hearing on the proposed rule in February 2024.

    In response to public comments, the Commission made numerous clarifications and adjustments to its previous proposal.

  12. #LetterOfTheWeek
    1986 goal to be a nation of #nonsmokers
    " #Secondhand #smoke ought to be treated more seriously as a #publichealth #threat, w more punitive #penalties in cases of non-compliance w court decisions, rather than as conflicts btw neighbours. #Smokers who are considerate wld find spaces to smoke w/o having others breathe in e smoke they breathe out. It wld be healthier for all of us if there were #laws tt compel smokers to behave in such a #considerate manner"

  13. Texas judge granted a woman’s #abortion request, despite the state’s strict #bans, in one of the first cases of its kind since #RoevWade ended. #Judge sided with the woman, whose #fetus was diagnosed with a #fatal condition, issuing a #temporary #restrainingorder to permit her doctor to perform an abortion without facing civil or criminal #penalties under the #statelaw. nytimes.com/2023/12/07/us/texa #womensrights #womenshealth #abortionishealthcare #healthcare #legalresearch #privacy #doctorpatient

  14. #Willis ties them all together by levying 1 #charge against Trump & the 18 other defendants under #Georgia’s #RICO Act, accusing #Trump & his #CoConspirators of functioning as a #criminal gang.

    American #law has long recognized thru the #crime of #conspiracy that combos of criminals are more dangerous than lone wolves. RICO is conspiracy on steroids, providing for stiffer #penalties & other advantages like bringing multiple connected conspiracies under 1 umbrella.
