Crazy detail reading this is that I know for a fact that the FBI New Orleans office shares a parking lot with the company it’s investigating for this breach … coincidence?
I really recommending reading this.
In summary, a company which does ID verification for in-person interactions (hotels, car rentals, ID verification for alcohol or marijuana, etc) has some how exposed over 153,000,000 drivers licenses for people in the United States and Canada.
It is a catastrophic data breach, probably one of the worse I've ever seen. If you're in the United States and have traveled, gotten a hotel, purchased marijuana or alcohol, there is a high probability you're in this.
Unlike other breaches, this includes a photo of the person (from the license), making verification you've identified the person significantly easier.
This poses a significant threat to celebrities (musicians, YouTubers, streamers, adult entertainers, actors, etc), politicians, lawyers, wealthy people (CEOs, investors, people of public interest), Law Enforcement Officers, etc
Krebs himself, and several other security researchers, have already confirmed they're in the data leak.
tl;dr gah damn dawg this company is going to be sued into oblivion

Jobs as a fair income distribution system broke 50 years ago and will only continue getting worse because of the amount of income that flows to wealth and the way wealth buys politicians.
We need to tax wealth, distribute UBI as a GDP dividend, and get money out of politics.✊️

🆕 "For every dollar distributed, $2.50 of economic activity is created over the next 30 months and prices only rise marginally… Other benefits include a fall in child mortality, as pregnant women can pay for transport to clinics and stop working in the weeks before childbirth."
How to pay for UBI.
Yep. Just issue shares.

AI was built on our data. It makes sense that we tax it and distribute the revenue. blog.andrewyang.com/p/tax-ai…

There are so many factors beyond our control that impact our decisions. That chronic stress leads to so many bad outcomes makes clear how important it is to reduce chronic financial stress in order to improve outcomes. Creating real security with a basic income floor is crucial.

Why are we taxing workers so much when the robots are here?
"There are dark factories with no light switches because they're all robotics…
Tax the robots. Stop taxing the human worker. Make it so employers like me can hire and more of that money goes to the people"
Do these cheap "say something people will take exception to in order to drive engagement for engagemnt's sake" posts STILL work in 2026? I really would have thought we'd have moved along by now.
Hey @MiniMax_AI - how does one go about seeking tech support with your agent platform?
Hey @YouTube - your recent change to stop working embedded places under the ruse of “prove you’re not a bot,” but reasonably ostensibly to drive traffic to your site, is having the opposite effect. I‘d rather not see what the thing was than jump through your hoops. Screw that.
Free WiFi on this @SouthwestAir flight, complements of @TMobile… though I kind of preferred to pay $8 and have internet access that didn’t struggle and crawl. (Hopefully this tweet makes it out eventually)
