Cody-99··on State Department Revokes Visas over Charlie Kirk Comments
Stop trolling.
Cody-99··on DDoS Botnet Aisuru Blankets US ISPs in Record DDoS
You can assume the county when it is in the title.

>DDoS Botnet Aisuru Blankets US ISPs in Record DDoS

Cody-99··on US gov shutdown leaves IT projects hanging, security defenders a skeleton crew
>You can't pass a budget without a super majority in the Senate

Yes you can. It is called reconciliation and it was made for passing a budget with a simple majority. Problem is when republicans used it earlier this summer they didn't actually fund the government fully so now they need 60 votes.

Cody-99··on Three farmers on monopolies and mismanagement in U.S. agriculture
>The entire agriculture industry — a bedrock of U.S. security — rests squarely on the shoulders of the American farmer.

Weird thing to have in an article about farmers who primarily export their food.

Cody-99··on TikTok is back in the App Store
>so there is broad bipartisan support for more time to find an acquirer,

Huh? No such law has passed congress.

Cody-99··on The young, inexperienced engineers aiding DOGE
If the administrator of a school district brings in his goons to destroy the schools systems then yes they would obviously be named?

Why on earth do you think the people destroying the system would be excluded from criticism?

Cody-99··on The young, inexperienced engineers aiding DOGE
Yes? Clearly lol.

Reddit banned it because they were threatened by Elon. And the 'doxing' everyone is talking about is the naming of Elon's rightwing goons who took over federal systems lol. He said the same 'tHeY aRe cOmMItTinG a CrImE' bullshit against wired and other outlets who reported on his goons.

As for violent content on reddit lets be real please. If you want to talk about violence open a Israel-Palestine thread not /r/whitepeopletwitter lol..

Cody-99··on Why is Warner Bros. Discovery putting old movies on YouTube?
Astroturfing pressure groups is a crazy way to describe the bandwidth alliance lol.

Did you seriously just link Asmongold?
Cody-99··on US LLCs must file new report with Treasury FinCEN or risk prison
>For many other small businesses, it is not.

They manged to form an LLC but can't fill out an additional simple form? Come on man be for real.

Cody-99··on Kim Dotcom Suffers Stroke
>"Crime" is something that means different things in different countries.

Which is why countries only extradite for things that are crimes in both countries. Which is what happened here.

Cody-99··on Kim Dotcom Suffers Stroke
I'll never understand why people think being across the globe matters. Basically all internet crime can be done across the globe (plus tons of other types of crime like drug trafficking, money laundering, fraud, etc).

Being in a different country doesn't give you free reign to commit crime.

Cody-99··on ICC issues warrants for Netanyahu, Gallant, and Hamas officials
US citizens/nationals/residents have rights that would be violated by an international court. For example, you can't have due process (as required by US law), a speedy trial, or a jury trial at the ICC. This makes the idea of handing people over to the ICC not only forbidden but wrong for obvious reasons.

Surely you don't expect people to give up these very fundamental rights so they could be tried in an international court?

Cody-99··on Telegram will now hand over phone number and IP for criminal suspects
Where ever they want to do business at. If they expect to be allowed to operate in France/the EU they will have to comply with legitimate French/EU warrants. No one is saying they can't fight it if there is a reason to.

>Can the USA kidnap the owners for non-compliance, can the Russians?

Jailing someone/holding a company in contempt that does business in your country for ignoring legal warrants isn't kidnapping. Trying to frame it that way is pretty silly and disingenuous.

Cody-99··on Telegram will now hand over phone number and IP for criminal suspects
Huh?

I think you are confusing "privacy-oriented" and anonymous! Signal is pretty privacy oriented since it has E2EE by default (and so does Whatsapp). Telegram would be much more privacy oriented if it had E2EE by default.

Cody-99··on Telegram says it will share phone numbers and IPs of 'bad actors' to authorities
The next step for telegram is pretty obvious. Stop collecting information about your users if you don't want to be forced to hand it over when given a valid government warrant. Of course that means they actually have to roll out E2E encryption by default so they probably won't do that.
Cody-99··on Telegram will now hand over phone number and IP for criminal suspects
This shouldn't surprise anyone. If a company collects info about some user and the government comes to them with a legitimate warrant they have to handover the information about that user (or risk going to jail/other action by the court) . There is a reason other companies like signal go out of their way to collect as little as possible.
Cody-99··on Judge stops FTC from enforcing ban on non-compete agreements
You think basic labor regulations is bloat and big brother? Can't tell if you are trolling or not haha.
Cody-99··on IRS has a method of last resort to collect overdue taxes: Revoking your passport
Yeah? Governments can revoke the passport of criminals. Not sure why that would surprise anyone haha
Cody-99··on US judge throws out FTC's ban on non-compete agreements
It is objectively a success lol. The elimination of preexisting conditions and annual/lifetime coverage caps alone was huge. Not to mention the tens of millions of people who received health insurance who wouldn't have had any at all.

It is insane to me you are going to sit there and try to act otherwise.

Cody-99··on Kim Dotcom's extradition to the U.S. given green light by New Zealand
Being based in a foreign country doesn't mean you aren't committing a crime. Cyber criminals, drug traffickers, money launders, etc are all still on the hook even though they operate in a different country.

Also what he was doing is also a crime in NZ otherwise he wouldn't be extradited.

Cody-99··on Türkiye Bans Roblox
So..? Using a non English character doesn't mean the usage is wrong and needs to be changed. Makes even less sense in the context of a name.

Anyways do you have a résumé, fiancée, or fiancé? Do you visit the café often? haha

Cody-99··on Türkiye Bans Roblox
There are tons of common words in English that use non English characters. No one argues those words need to be changed so I'm not sure why so many people here are so gungho about it.
Cody-99··on Twitter kills its San Francisco headquarters, will relocate to South Bay
What are you talking about? Open any twitter link and there is a pretty good chance it just doesn't work lol. And even if it does work hopefully it isn't a thread because you won't see any of the parent comments or replies.
Cody-99··on 'Charger hogs' are ruining the electric vehicle experience
Roughly where in the world do you live that garages don't have power?
Cody-99··on Supreme Court overturns 40-year-old "Chevron deference" doctrine
Not really. If congress writes the laws intending the responsible agency to resolve ambiguities (which they do in just about every case) and doesn't object via CRA I don't see how that isn't an explicit approval.
Cody-99··on Supreme Court overturns 40-year-old "Chevron deference" doctrine
Congress already has that power now though..? The congressional review act lets congress review and vote on new regulations issued by government agencies. Lots of people in this thread seem to be missing the fact that congress already approves of these agency rules. If they didn't they would have blocked them under the CRA.
Cody-99··on Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free
What on earth are you rambling about?
Cody-99··on Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free
A self imposed exile inside an embassy and then 5 years in a British prison isn't torture. Trying to say that waters down what the word actually means.

>His mental health deteriorated a while back.

Okay and so what..? Does that somehow mean he shouldn't be held to account for his crimes? Plenty of prisons have bad mental health but that doesn't mean they should be let free. Had he not spent 14 years trying to avoid a trail he would have already been out years ago.

Cody-99··on Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free
>So you're saying Chinese law applies to you when you're a US citizen in the US?

If I launched a ransomware attack against a Chinese company, smuggled drugs into China via the Post, etc then I wouldn't be surprised when China charged me for my crimes. That is how the world works! There are plenty of laws where you don't need to be physically inside a country to be at risk of indictment (or equivalent).

>We can't be subject to every country's laws, irrespective of citizenship or location.

It would be silly for a country to try and enforce every law they have on others abroad. That doesn't mean countries can't enforce certain laws on people who are abroad. I gave you 4 examples of laws that countries commonly enforce on people abroad and for good reason.

>You've just argued yourself into saying that it is proper, good, and right for China to extradite you. If not you personally, then people you know who did say negative things about the CCP. Or took Muhammad's name in vain. Or, or, or..

No I didn't. China trying to extradite someone for criticizing them isn't the same as the US trying to extradite a Russian hacker who is behind a ransomware attack or a South American drug kingpin. Assange was a direct co-conspirator in accessing and stealing classified documents. Trying to pretend like that is on the same level as criticizing the CCP or some warlord is absurd. It is so absurd it is hard to tell if you are even being serious or just trolling.
