*Austria's "firewall" against the far right collapsed. Could the unthinkable happen in Germany too?*

Some in the UK think that incapacitated people suffering from anorexia who are incapacitated to the point that they cannot commit suicide on their own should not be allowed help in doing so.

I am not an expert, but I tend to disagree. If a person's life is suffering and perse persistently asks for death, we should not forcibly prolong per torture.

In the US: write to the CEO of John Deere to tell the company to stop closing factories and moving production to low-wage companies.

I included text to support the right to repair tractors:

Turning America farmers into digital serfs with the restrictive systems in your tractors is even worse. Farmers deserve the right to fix and change the hardware and software of their tractors.

At this rate, John Deere is making more detractors than tractors.

Here's how to make the actionnetwork.org letter campaign linked above work without running the site's nonfree JavaScript code. (See https://gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html.)

First, make sure you have deactivated JavaScript in your browser or are using the LibreJS plug-in.

I have done the next step for you: I added `?nowrapper=true' to the end of the campaign URL before posting it above. That should bring you to a page that starts with, "Letter campaigns will not work without javascript!"

They indeed won't work without some manual help, but the following simple method seems adequate for many of them, including this one.

To start, fill in the personal information answers in the box on the right side of the page. That's how you say who's sending the letter.

Then click the "START WRITING" button. That will take you to a page that can't function without nonfree JavaScript code. (To ensure it doesn't function perversely by running that nonfree code, you can enable LibreJS or disable JavaScript.) You can finish sending without that code by editing its URL in the browser's address bar, as follows:

First, go to the end and insert `&nowrapper=true'. Then tell the browser to visit that URL. This should give you a version of the page that works without JavaScript. Edit the subject and body of your letter. Finally, click on the "SEND LETTER" button, and you're done.

This method seems to work for letter campaigns that send the letters to a fixed list of recipients, the same recipients for every sender. Editing and revisiting the URL is the only additional step needed to bypass the nonfree JavaScript code. I'm sure you'll agree it is a small effort for the result of supporting the campaign without opening your computer to unjust (and potentially malicious) software.

Useds of Facebook or Instagram: call on Zuckerburg to restore fact-checking in Facebook and Instagram.

Drone-manufacturer DJI has decided to put an end to including software to forcibly prevent the drone from flying into prohibited areas.

That proprietary software was the spacial equivalent of DRM, and that made it unjust. I have nothing against the rule to keep one's drone out of prohibited areas, and except in purely theoretical special cases I would willingly comply with it. But the idea that someone could take control of my drone, perhaps by remotely altering its geofence, is repugnant.

I suspect that all the rest of the software in those products is nonfree also. My conscience would rebel at having one of those drones, either before or after the recent change.

Fortunately I have never felt any particular wish to have a drone.
