Not sure why this is illegal. Against the company's terms of service, sure. But the government shouldn't be involved.
I really have to wonder who is down voting this comment.
90+% of this article is good, valuable, and interesting. I too ride on 3-4 lane roads and have dealt with aggressive drivers, it's nice to be seen.
However this bit chafes:
The dismissive ‘male glance’ is real, on the bike as in all of life. I can distinctly recall men realizing another cyclist (me, almost 50) is behind them, at a red light or whatever, and looking back, only to discover a woman who is older than he is, on a not-interesting-to-him bike, with no interesting blingy gear on it, and have him turn away, barely able to acknowledge I was there at all. What was he expecting to see? A sexualizable object young enough to be worthy of his attention?

If they don't bother releasing people locked up under laws that no longer exist, why would they bother retrying all those people? To be clear they should do both, but they don't do much of either.
And no one was surprised.
The US has also been passing laws to clamp down on protesting in the wake of the Dakota Access, BLM, and Stop Cop City protests.
The Drilled podcast is doing a season about the global legislative shift now.
This was my first thought, but apparently it's another right winger ::gasp::
