sdrawkcabmai··on China Evergrande contagion concerns rile global markets
Tether denies: https://thedeepdive.ca/tether-denies-holding-commercial-pape.... But that said, who knows? Tether isn't exactly reputable. Could still be affected by contagion in general Chinese paper.
sdrawkcabmai··on Consolidation of the VPN industry spells trouble for the consumer
They do not keep logs on your browsing history but they do route it immediately to various parties paying for the live feeds. /sarcasm sort of

sdrawkcabmai··on Presentation of Pfizer booster data from Israel
The data suggests a regularly scheduled set of boosters over time?

Is this because the vaccines are short acting? Is it because they are not targeting the virus properly? Or is this because of virus mutations?

If we had better vaccines targeted to the current mutations, would they require so many boosters?

When will we get a new vaccine that is targeted more to the current mutations circulating?

sdrawkcabmai··on Facebook has exempted high-profile users from some or all of its rules
Why out of the largest tech companies, like Amazon, Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, Twitter (well not large but similar to FB in terms of social network) only one has a reputation for constantly lying and misleading people on purpose in its self-interest? Is it because we pay more attention to FB or is it because FB is different in some way?

Facebook is the most explicitly duplicitious sociopathic company in the tech sector. Many companies are sociopathic, especially as you get into pure finance companies like PE firms, but few are as duplicitous as Facebook.
