The FTC went easy on this spammer. Texts can cost people 5-10 cents each. They do me. So if this spammer sent 20 million spam texts, he could have costs his victims 1-2 million dollars. And he only got find 60 thousand. Weak.
Here we have it: Democrats back blame-the-victim cybersecurity laws, while wanting to let cybersecurity attackers loose. Aaron’s law is a sloppy wet kiss to anarchists, terrorists, and organized criminals. Criminals who are even attacking the Congress now.Net Neutrality problems do not exist, says one leftist group. A consensus is growing against that Net Neutrality power grab.
Metadata surveillance will continue.
Press bias happens in tech, too. When a firm like Google makes acquisitions of leading edge technology to get new ideas and smart people, it’s painted as an intelligent strategy.

It’s odd because Steve Jobs was much more of of them than Larry Page or Eric Schmidt have ever been.
