    In what world does the FTC have any jurisdiction over Apple News?

    X certifiably promotes CSAM and ultra right propaganda and they don’t seem to care.

      Harpaxocracy.

      Literally, ‘rule by rapists’ or ‘rule by those who violently sieze’.

      … i find it to be a bit more cutting and able to be said more venemously than ‘pedocracy’.

        Comments: that thing where you upvote what you like and downvote what you dislike, and if you feel strongly, say the same thing 10 other people said in different words. Very important. Very necessary.

        Honestly a sidebar with a chat like IRC, but every message being tagged by which specific article its author is viewing right now, would help the social part more.

        I mean, Telegram’s convenience is a weapon. If you want a good UI for article feeds with comments, it should just copy Telegram. Except for the Russian intelligence services part.

      I want to make a set up of RSS to pull stories and ollama to summarize them into a daily newspaper.

      Last time I tried RSS bare there’s so much cruft because all sites put out a ton of SEO garbage hoping for ad revenue and google sempai to notice them that I need something to wade through the garbage.

      I don’t know if you’re ready to hear this, but international trust in US news was in the shitter before 9/11 and got flushed after 9/11.

      Or did everyone forget the lies about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction repeated breathlessly by US media without question?
