Comparing proton with Microsoft like this is a joke.

The interviewer lost me at "while Elon does appear committed to openness and freedom of speech". Especially when they proceed later to talk about Elon taking down posts when asked by the Indian and Australian governments, locally to those territories and the world.

Do the top executives also sit randomly with other colleagues?

Not a single mention in almost all of the bankruptcy articles, including this one, that it is majority-owned by Leonard Green & Partners, a private equity firm. A story as old as time: get bought out by private equity, collapse under the weight of your new debt burden.

"Joann previously went private in 2011 — when it was purchased by Leonard Green & Partners for about $1.6 billion. A decade later Joann, still majority owned by the equity firm, returned to the public market with an initial public offering at $12 a share."

It will be like the Netflix exodus, the reddit exodus, etc. They'll make more money. The best you can do is be true to yourself and not participate if you don't want to.

I did notice that the CEO who decided to pay a single podcaster 200 million dollars never got laid off. Same guy whose big expensive bet on several other exclusive podcast deals failed spectacularly.

Which you will need to prove by sending your personal identification to a commercial third party provider. Who will eventually get hacked and your data will be leaked.

It's fortunate that Uber is famous for following the rules.

This is the deceit of these laws. They pretend to be about a genuine "problem", giving a degree of plausibility, just like you are doing now. But we should not be fooled. The real motivation is to deter voting by non GOP groups.

In this case, consider which areas have long lines and which don't. You're not sure? Look at which areas have had the number of voting places reduced. Look at which groups find it difficult to vote during weekday working hours, and who is limiting weekend voting and early/late voting hours.

It's always been illegal to campaign within X feet of a polling place. Banning water and snacks is irrelevant to that. You could never just set up campaigning tents anywhere you wanted. Was there really an epidemic of lawless tent-weilding water and snacks givers before this law? "How do you solve for that?" You don't because it's not a real problem, the law is simply designed to make it difficult to stay in line in mainly non GOP overloaded voting places, to make people give up and go home.
