Notes

How is Facebook supposed to respond to the Cambridge Analytica kerfuffle?

“It’s not a data breach, our security was not compromised. But they did use personal data in ways that violate our terms. They’re supposed to pay us if they’ll be doing that.”

Let's appreciate this moment in history when you can't pay Facebook, Google, or Twitter to publish your advertising for guns, but as long as you use the free channel they will let you advocate using them to kill other humans. Because free speech.

I enjoy these two weeks of spring when Amsterdam and Seattle are an hour closer to each other.

In case you were wondering how I feel about the new US Secretary of State: https://medium.com/@gerwitz/this-is-how-facism-is-bootstrapped-e341bdb27663

I'm glad Bannon skipped Holland on his EU tour. I left the US partly to get away from nihilistic asses like him.

Really, @JunckerEU? Is it not obvious that this is an exceptionally poor time in EU history to even risk the appearance of unaccountable power brokering among elites?
