I agree but that's because Facebook paid for the lobbying to make tiktok look like the boogeyman. Just because they couldn't compete with tiktok.

Whether or not its really a security issue is up for debate so far as I am concerned. Considering the existence of data brokers. That any country can just buy data from which contains the same stuff that come from apps.

Or he was using that as a smokescreen after users of tiktok made him look bad by conducting a campaign to inflate his rally numbers. For one or two of his rallies before the 2020 election, users would signup for tickets to his rallies in the thousands. When they had set things up expecting thousands and only a fraction showed up. Kinda irked him.

He didn't give a shit about "national security" especially since Facebook collects the same "data."

I've always included the "and a half" because I couldn't careless if that makes me seem childish. I am what I am.

I have thought since the very first episode that it was good and worth my time. I never went into with expectations. I am not one to call something woke, because that is idiotic. I have enjoyed it for what it is.

But I am also one that doesn't pay attention to the quality of the writing or any that critic stuff. I take any show or movie for what it presents itself to be, without preconceived notions.

Oh and apparently I need clarify if I have watched it.. Yes I am up to 9, watching the last one later on tonight.

Literally taking what I said from a commercial on tv for a drug that is already on the market. And I have heard on many occasions that deaths have a occurred from complications after taking a particular drug.

Every drug commercial you see has side effects that seem like trading one thing for another. Granted the bad effects only apply to probably 2% of users, but still.

And this time around there's a stalemated FCC where the dem side can't vote down or approve any significant remedies!

Still can't believe either Biden hasn't changed his nominee that is less controversial or the dems in Congress haven't found some way around the idiocy of repubs blocking a full vote to fill the 5th seat.
