This is cool! Also I can’t help but see this as a meme format: “Me, at 7am vs 10pm” lol

Probably we need regulations and laws that require these massive online platforms to provide tools like this. Since they decided not to do it “voluntarily” anymore.

I think you mean USSS.

Also the format of the debates is pretty terrible. Giving only 2 minutes to answer on complex social and geopolitical topics only lends itself to trying to make the best sound-bite. I would love to see them experiment with longer form responses (even if that means fewer questions each debate), as well as things like cutaways for adding context and fact-checking.

Bingo. A properly funded and functional public education system, that teaches real critical thinking and let’s include media literacy while we’re at it.

The link you shared says only in specific circumstances can someone opt out of LexusNexus:

Opting out of LexisNexis can be more complex than removing your data from other people-search sites. To have your information taken down, you must meet specific criteria, and LexisNexis may request additional documentation:

  • Victim of identity theft: you need to provide a police report documenting the identity theft or similar documentation.
  • Law enforcement officers or public officials facing threats of severe bodily harm or death:** **you must submit a letter from their supervisor confirming the nature of their position and the threats.
  • At risk of physical harm but not in law enforcement: you'll need to submit a protective order from the court, a police report, or similar documentation.

Yeah I loved playing the first one! Hopefully there’s enough innovation to warrant a full sequel rather than just new content with essentially the same mechanics. Here’s hoping!

Mail forwarding doesn’t apply to all mail btw. For example, mail from the dmv.

After moving to a new place, I was expecting something from the dmv (had sent in the request months earlier before I knew I was moving). I had the mail forward in place, so figured I was good. I never received it, so eventually I called the dmv and they told me their mail is not redirected with a mail forward, and would just be returned to them.

I am curious if the same would apply to official election mail.

Ah, good catch I completely missed that. Thanks for clarifying this, I thought it seemed pretty off.

Underrated comment.

Fwiw, Amplosion is a great iOS app/safari extension to de-AMP google search results. Bonus: it’s made by Christian Selig, the dev behind Apollo (rip).
