Cory Doctorow is rightfully enraged:

This is all downside. If Google complies with the order, it will constitute a privacy breach on a scale never before seen. If they don't comply with the order, it will starve competitors of the one tiny drop of hope that Judge Mehta squeezed out of his pen. It's a catastrophe. An utter, total catastrophe. It has zero redeeming qualities. Hope you like enshittification, folks, because Judge Mehta just handed Google an eternal licence to enshittify the entire fucking internet.

They aren't gonna tell you this unless you pretend to be Republican and say things in Republican coded ways to them.

The fact is: they all know that Trump isn't a classic conservative and they all know that voting for him is a large betrayal of long standing values. They choose to vote for him anyway.

The fact is: Republicans have been working for power and see themselves as the oppressed minority who needs to resort to these tactics to hold onto whatever power they get. Meanwhile, you Democrats don't even bring a knife to the political gunfight and are losing as the most basic levels.

I'm hoping that the Republicans have overplayed their hands. But if y'all can't really behind a flawed candidate like Biden (when Republicans obviously can rally behind a felon for the greater good of their party), good fucking luck. Or do you think that Republicans can't follow the news or some shit?
