Montana has passed a full ban on TikTok in the state. Not only is it entirely unenforceable, a ban solves none of the privacy concerns presented by TikTok. When are we going to get actual privacy legislation instead of political posturing about China? https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/17/tech/montana-governor-tiktok/index.html

Is it news that data brokers are evil and willing to sell our data to the highest bidder? No, not at all. But finding out that our mental health data could be sold for as little as $0.20 just takes the cake. https://gizmodo.com/depression-anxiety-brokers-sell-mental-health-data-1850107119

This is messed up 🐦elonmusk. People need to be able to trust their messages are safe, and rolling out a half-baked version of end-to-end encryption, and only for people who pay, doesn't do that. Stop f**king around and take end-to-end encryption of Twitter seriously. #MakeDMsSafe
