Will be taking a closer look into this tomorrow, is it something you use yourself, just out of interest?

@jac Iโve used this myself in the past, but admittedly not do much these days. I much prefer being behind a VPN.

@jac No, I do not. Although I kind of like the ideas behind it. Winning the ad/big data arms race is not going to happen even with use of VPN. All we can do is raise the bar.
The adnauseam approach may offer a bit of a warm fuzzy feeling in that โthe victimsโ finally have some chance to play offense. I is a plugin so I suppose one could enable/disable as the mood strikes.
Just tossed that up here fwiw. Had my head into some other things as of late. Be interesting to see how much a drag on performance behind the scene advert clicks incur - both network and local resources side.

@phenomlab Meh, you ainโt seen nothinโ yetโฆ Todayโs testimony, which I watched live, is tame as a newborn puppy. Comparatively. Check this out. If youโve the stomach. Be forewarned, some some sick 'chit crosses the โcontent analystsโ desks
Facebook Whistleblower Reveals Censorship Guidelines for Moderators - WARNING
I donโt know what is going on w/my browser, but the link above fails to display. @phenomlab, feel free to edit this post as necessary to make it so. Gotta run.
Watched the first few mins and then bizarrely had a chat request on Facebook (believe me I donโt use it, I probably go on it once a fortnight if that to see how the family are etc) anyway the person requesting a chat seemed to send me a link to a dodgy X rated website that I of course didnโt click, but funnily enough as I was watching that first little bit I did think to myself what on earth am I doing with a Facebook account

Lest โwe the sheepleโ are delusional enough to believe/hope all this โsubcommittee hearing theaterโ will result in consequences with any real teeth:
Proof positive: Talk is cheap. Actions are loud. And speak volumes.
Not to single Amy out because Iโll be I can do same for pretty much every politard talking head on the subcommittee. I picked Amy because she was one making some of the more pointed comments and also a former presidential candidate.
Hmmโฆ Walk of shame anyone? How many of your elected officials are voting with their feet? Iโll be not a single one.
From website of committee chair, Richard Blumenthal:
Ranking member Marsha Blackburn, who is extra hip and also sporting Instagram button:
Senator Edward Markey, who d**n near busted an elbow patting himself on the back for his previous child protection litigation;
Senator Brian Schatz, HI
Senator Tammy Baldwin
You get the picture: Hypocrites to the last member. Iโll finish this up with just one more from โthe other side of the isleโ, lest anybody get the false impression I am favoring one side:
Well, the above is two thirds of the committee, Iโll leave those even remotely interested to do their own clickery:

Iโve done pretty much that already. Hardly use any of them these days. Never really was a social media fan anyway so donโt miss it at all.

Pretty much the same for me Mark, I donโt understand peopleโs pleasure in starting arguments or posting what theyโve just done five seconds ago, itโs all very tedious isnโt it.
Thatโs why we have Sudonix

@JAC yeah, Iโve never seen the appeal. I tried to get into LinkedIn a while back and then gave up because itโs just chock full of people who have far too much time on their hands telling anyone who will listen about how great they are and what they have achieved.
Actions speak louder than words.
