Empowering App-Based Workers Act

Call on Congress to pass the Empowering App-Based Workers Act.

Check this action

What is missing in that bill, in my view, is

  • Limit data collection about employees and customers.
  • Require these companies to recognize a workers' union.
  • Arrange to let both employees and customers to communicate with the company using exclusively free software, so these companies can't surveil their customers.

ICE killing practices

The deportation thugs decided to cease the practice of ordering drivers to pull over, since that has shown a tendency to lead to killings of drivers.

However, the persecutor ordered them to resume. Apparently he thinks that killing people for no reason is a good thing.

Why would he think so? I theorize that he hopes to intimidate Americans into despair by showing contempt for the harm he does. And train his followers into similar Nazi-style contempt.

US sanctions against UN official

US sanctions against UN official [Francesca Albanese] and [Palestinian human] rights groups violate first amendment, lawsuit claims.

The US has demanded Spain extradite James ‘Fergie’ Chambers, accused of "supporting HAMAS", but people suspect that what he really did was support humanitarian projects in Gaza, which the US government has invented an excuse to mislabel as "supporting HAMAS".

Palestinian prisoner tortured
</p>

A photo of a Palestinian prisoner being tortured in an Israeli prison confirms that the frequent accusations of torture reflect reality.

The victim's mother says she recognizes him from the photo, but it seems she has had no word about him since he was grabbed in 2023.

UK pretext on usage of fossil fuel generators
</p>

The Tory government of the UK was convinced to decide to spend over 250 billion pounds on new fossil fuel generators, justifying this based on the claim that they will emit somewhat less greenhouse gas pollution than already existing fossil fuel generators.

That is a very stupid justification, given that it would be cheaper to build renewable generators as replacements, and eliminate all of their greenhouse gas emissions.

Title X funding

The persecutor is trying to redirect Title X funding away from birth control and into pressuring women to have babies.

The persecutor's policies also include cutting all sorts of assistance to the poor for raising healthy children. It seems to be a plan for raising a new generation of miserable, twisted and hateful people.

Put this together with his evident efforts to accelerate global heating and keep civilization as vulnerable as possible, they add up to a plan to crush civilization from two sides at once.

FCC to end burner phones

The FCC is considering putting an end to "burner phones", requiring everyone with a portable phone to be identified.

The motive is to crack down on robocalls, something I consider desirable. However, the article explains that it is possible to do that without eliminating the possibility of anonymity.

If you want the burner phone not to be identified, you need to keep it powered off and shielded from radio waves, aside from special occasions. Otherwise, your identity might be deduced by patterns in location data or calling.

Every phone uses nonfree software to operate the radio communication, so I will still refuse to use them.
