MSG employees are also expected to attend their shows in NYC clubs. Feels like a great example of small dick energy

If you worked at a law firm that sued him, even if you weren't directly involved, your name was added to a list, they'd get a picture of you, and then set up their system to recognize you and kick you out if you went to Madison Square Garden for something.

After having to deal with privacy related issues, I’d bet that after sufficiently many states have adopted their own privacy legislations - all of them of course slightly different in various ways - tech companies will be begging for Congress to step in. Smart ones probably have already started lobbying efforts.

Are states doing things? I know CA has pass their own thing, and NY has had whispers of doing something, but I dougbt it will ever get to the point companies ask the Fed to do something positive. Regressive will supa nova bark about tinhat poo poo and the fed will again bend the knee to abunch of empty land folk. Hell how did CA pass their thing? is it toothless or jaw/boneless? theyre the techbro state.

When California starts doing things it can affect the whole nation because it's an enormous market. However, legislation routinely gets watered down to meaninglessness even in liberal strongholds.

There is some comprehensive privacy legislation with the proposed American Data Privacy and Protection Act. Connecticut and Utah have also passed state-level legislation just like California, Colorado and Virginia. Stubb Dogg posted:Virginia VCPDA went into effect Jan 1st, Colorado one sometime mid 2023 and Utah one at the end of 2023. California CCPA is in many ways comparable to GDPR, though actual enforcement is an another issue. There was a first enforcement action with beauty retailer Sephora that resulted in a $1.2m settlement in August. CPPA is expected to publish final rules in late January.

Verge has a long rear end piece on Musk's rampage inside Twitter. https://www.theverge.com/23551060/elon-musk-twitter-takeover-layoffs-workplace-salute-emojiquote:Rumors were swirling that Musk planned to cut 75 percent of the company. People were audibly sobbing in the bathrooms. quote:On October 26, an engineer and mother of two — let’s call her Alicia — sat in a glass conference room in San Francisco trying to explain the details of Twitter’s tech stack to Elon Musk. He was supposed to officially buy the company in two days, and Alicia and a small group of trusted colleagues were tasked with outlining how its core infrastructure worked. But Musk, who was sitting two seats away from Alicia with his elbows propped on the table, looked sleepy. When he did talk, it was to ask questions about cost. How much does Twitter spend on data centers? Why was everything so expensive?
