Unconstitutional California law

dimanche 28 mai 2017 à 02:00

The excessive demonization of Russia has interfered with removal of an unconstitutional California law barring Communists from state jobs.

Communism sounds nice in the abstract, but when implemented it turned out to be just another system of dictatorship by an elite. China and Vietnam today, and to some extent Cuba as well, show that this outcome was not limited to the Soviet Union.

UK children suffering due to Toryism

dimanche 28 mai 2017 à 02:00

UK doctors say many of the children they treat suffer from bad health caused by Toryism and the poverty it campaigns for. This harms children's health by way of bad housing, bad food, and stress about financial insecurity.

HTTPS

dimanche 28 mai 2017 à 02:00

The EFF reports that HTTPS is making it difficult for states to impose selective censorship via filtering, which leads states to turn to demanding that companies such as Facebook carry out the censorship for them.

Unfortunately, it ends with an inadequate recommendation for companies to be "transparent" about their censorship. That's hardly enough to qualify as trying to resist.

The article also uses the term "content" to refer to publications, which ought to be avoided since it deprecates them all.
