Before that, on 17 May 2011, the Israeli foreign ministry released a statement saying that “lawyers in the UK have formed a new group called UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI).” It since appears to have been removed from the ministry’s website. Turner told MEE: “We are an independent organisation and are not linked to the Israeli government.” Of the 2012 seminar, he said: “It was an excellent seminar, with distinguished speakers and very informative.”… UKLFI earlier this month wrote to the British government threatening legal action unless it reverses its decision to suspend 30 out of 350 arms licences to Israel. Jonathan Turner, who is still the CEO of UKLFI, publicly called the Labour government’s move a “political decision to appease members of the public who hate Israel based on misinformation and biased media coverage of the war. As such, it was a misuse of the power granted by the legislation”.

Lol. “Antisemites!”

Working fine on librewolf so far.

I switched from FF to librewolf. Less convenient, more privacy, no pesky G**gle partnerships, afaict.

Something not wasting it on endless ads.

And our own bandwidth, too. Google isn’t paying my Internet bill. Hope the rest of my content creators switch soon, otherwise I’ll miss them.

I was thinking something like this for jobs on the fediverse would be great, then thought it would probably be filled with high paying, highly technical jobs or low paying garbage jobs, or both with no between space. I’d love to be wrong.

No worries, and that actually makes sense, now that you mention it. Thank you for your reply.

This may have something to do with it. One hand washing the other, as the saying goes.

But I also have doubts if this is the right move

Can you share those and the reasoning, please?

The reason I didn’t agree with that is because desperate people do desperate things, despite how clear and concise information available is. With every person had guaranteed, decent housing, food, comprehensive medical, decent clothing and other needs met, I may reconsider.

I think we’re in agreement. I could have said “technologically necessary” to have been more clear, but I don’t agree sale or sharing should be by consent. I think it should be illegal, full stop.

Australia is, and France is their ally.

The fears, however reasonable you may find them, are largely that it presents a danger of foreign information gathering of detailed behavioral/location/interest/social network information on a huge swath of the U.S. population which can be used either for intelligence purposes or targeted influence/psyops campaigns within the U.S.

Tbh, I’m troubled by my own government doing that to us.

How about making data collection other than necessary to operate a website illegal, then making the sale of that data illegal, and absolutely require a warrant to collect it, including from FISA court?

I doubt it’s denting the bottom* line as much as the recent court rulings. And I doubt it’s as much paying bills as it is paying vested interests.

Something seems very amiss with this.

Maybe if I have some pennies to spare, I will donate. I’m just not an Amazon fan. I haven’t given them money in a several years.

I’d prefer we not give Amazon money. I’m asking if there’s a better place, for either?

The YT channel. Apologies, I know people aren’t psychic.

Can we promote our products somewhere besides Amazon? One more friendly to regular producers?
