> The problem? The file was unencrypted. No password protection. No security. Just a plain text file with millions of sensitive pieces of data.

> Based on his analysis, Fowler determined the data was captured by some kind of infostealer malware.

Then the mere exposure of the file and whether it was encrypted is irrelevant. The data was already stolen, the damage was already done.

"The Wikimedia Foundation shares the UK government’s commitment to promoting online environments where everyone can safely participate. However, if enforced on Wikipedia..."

"The Wikimedia Foundation is not bringing a general challenge to the OSA as a whole, not even to the existence of the Category 1 duties themselves."

"We do not dispute the need for sensible online regulation."

Great to see those who support these regulations facing the consequences.

> Abrego Garcia’s case has generated a national furor after the Trump administration acknowledged it had erroneously sent him to El Salvador on March 15 in violation of a 2019 court order that prohibited him from being sent to his home country because of potential persecution by a local gang.

Any other President would have left the EU's 26%* tariffs on America in place, while Trump is trying to get them all removed (or equal)

It's not like there was a zero-tariff situation before Trump's second term

* 5% avg tariff + then 20% avg VAT

> "There are, there are methods which you could do it, as you know," he said. He declined to elaborate on any specific methods.

There are, though. No need to act naive.

I support President Trump, but I don't support a third term and he wouldn't be able to pull it off (on the basis that a third term is not a good precedent).

The 22nd Amendment clearly states you can't be elected more than twice, not that you can't serve as President more than twice.

The earlier draft of the amendment was that you cannot serve as President more than twice. The "elected" language was intentional.

Interesting that NPR tries to brand the funding as if its for addiction and mental health care all throughout the article.

For comparison, here's what CNN says:

"These funds were largely used for Covid-19 testing, Covid-19 vaccination and Covid-19 global projects, according to HHS, including for community health workers focused on populations most at risk from Covid-19."

And here's what the Trump administration says:

"The COVID-19 pandemic is over, and HHS will no longer waste billions of taxpayer dollars responding to a non-existent pandemic that Americans moved on from years ago"
