I wrote a story about how Homeland Security is using administrative subpoenas, which aren't subject to judicial oversight, to seek data from tech giants about Trump critics and anonymous accounts of ICE trackers. Features some really great reporting by Bloomberg & Washington Post.

@jerryJerry Mouse @Em0nM4stodonEm There is no way to do age verification without those harmful properties. They can't be separated. They're fundamental consequences.

On top of that, age verification harms children. It does not "protect" them.

Does anyone have a good example of an anti-ai license? I have some creative work I'd like to release for humans to play with.

Updated my test mastodon instance, listodon.com, to v4.5.6 and updated TangerineUI to a nice lagoon theme for the default.

I had some slowness during this upgrade, I'm not sure why. At one point I thought it was completely stalled but it finally completed.
