Twitter, Facebook, how Apple broke its privacy promise, and GitHub getting sued. But a good news interlude, too.

Another attack on queer spaces, diversity theatre, border regimes, maps of the world, and cows surviving a hurricane.

German’s law enforcement and its bullshit, a new stochastic parrot, Mastodon’s first main character (it’s a cop), and a lawsuit because cooking pasta takes too long.
