Once upon a time, We the Connected didn’t have an inkling of the inconceivable value of our digital data. Our mass ignorance allowed Huge Tech companies like Google and Facebook – to become Huge Tech companies. By mass harvesting our data…and mass selling it to the highest bidders. Finally, We the Connected began to ask…
Let us harken back to the 1933 Marx Brothers movie “Duck Soup.” In said flick, Groucho Marx was caught in an untenable position – blatantly caught blatantly lying. To which he responded with the timeless line: “Who you gonna believe – me, or your lying eyes?” All of these Marx Brothers – are exponentially better…
In May of 2013, we wrote this: Supreme Court Rules Bureaucrats Can Set Their Own Power Limits; No Bureaucrats Find Any Followed up in September 2014 with this: Video: When Bureaucrats Determine Their Own Limits – There Are No Limits To what Court ruling were we repeatedly referring? Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense…
For all but the most befuddled by basic math – government costs a LOT of money. Unfortunately, some of those most befuddled by basic math – are running for the Democrat nomination for President. Bernie Sanders Admits He Hasn’t a Clue of the Cost of His Socialist Stuff: “In a ’60 Minutes’ interview with host…
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) get a really bad, nigh entirely undeserved rap. Yes, in a quarter century of hiring ISPs I have had multiple bad customer service experiences. Exactly as I have with every other service provider I have perpetually engaged for the last quarter century. And many sporadic provider hires too. ISPs are populated…

But sometimes – the width, depth and breadth of a particular hypocrisy shock you out of your jading. Big Tech’s whiplash-inducing disconnect from content-monitoring reality – is just such an instance. To begin…
The Left has spent the entirety of the Internet’s history – obfuscating the Internet’s history. So let’s restate some very basic, quite obvious basics. The World Wide Web – is a WORLD Wide Web. The Internet spans the globe – so our Constitution clearly mandates the Internet’s policy setting belongs to our federal government. Leftists…
Communist China is not a very nice place. Their government is not honest. US policy for decades was to pretend we can trust Communist China. All the while ignoring the mass thefts, heists and lies to which Communist China has for decades subjected us. It’s really been quite pathetic. God bless Donald Trump. Who parachuted…
In 2019, with a $4-trillion-per-year federal Leviathan, running a joint called Less Government can lead to our taking some seemingly confusing and contradictory policy positions. Of course, we want LESS government – not NO government. We’d like somewhere between $4-trillion-per-year – and Somalia. Admittedly closer to Somalia, but still…. We want a Constitutionally prescribed and…
Leftists like to pretend they’re things they are not. Because the things they are – are so decidedly unpopular amongst We the People. By and large, We the People like less government. Which, of course, is antithetical to Leftists. The more leftover, warmed-over Leftist “ideas” Democrat Massachusettes Senator and presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren put forward…
