Not only HIPPA but sounds like there were some PCI, Payment card industry, compliance violations as well.

And when you have to drive over to the office to show the Receptionist how to insert a USB stick encrypted or otherwise into her computer?
That would work great until Obama went to electronic medical records; now there is no such thing as "Air-Gapped" and "Medical Records". I know that sounded snarky, but everything has advantages and disadvantages and Obama only did something that was going to happen whether he did it or someone else.
Would it be too conspiratorial to wonder if all of the Crypto-Bro "left the party" so Microsoft could enter the game? I sure their are many Government types that would love to have the people of the world using a currency with a built in audit trail and can be remotely shut off.
It's been revealed that social media companies where getting pressured to flag true statements as medical misinformation if someone thought it might cause vaccine hesitancy.
The only way you can tell for sure if a video is demonitized or not on youtube is to be the channel owner and look on the dashboard.
Oh yeah I’m sure that’s all Crowder said.
I watched the episode in question and that is what I personally saw and heard. Youtube considers WHO to be authoritative, when you quote CDC and it is in variance with WHO, you get a Medical Misinformation strike.
That's a disingenuous argument, Advertisers don't seem to care when their billboard ads are next to a whorehouse or a chop-shop. Some companies primary demographic is attracted to " controversial content". If Google was really smart they could they could tailor ad presention to a fine degree and use it as a value added tier of adverts.
One of their (Youtube's) gimmicks is they demonetize a video on spurious grounds, but still show ads around the video. The Content Provider appeals and prevails, but only after the video has had 80% of it's views already, do they get remonetized but don't get the revenues during the time they were erroneously demonetized. They banned Steven Crowder for "Medical Misinformation" over quoting the CDC website.
If it came from a lab, then we either need to outlaw labs with severe swift and harsh penalties, or we need regulations to conduct non-harmful research only. Why the fuck dont you get that? The Covid pandemic was terrible and many lost their lives. If this was the result of government action, then whatever party and whomever was behind the decisions to create it, need to be disbanded, by force if necessary. More people died from COVId-19 than NAZI Germany. MAGA bullshit? How about go fuck yourself.
We did outlaw it.
"States Parties to the Biological Weapons Convention undertook “never in any circumstances to develop, produce, stockpile or otherwise acquire or retain:
1. microbial or other biological agents, or toxins whatever their origin or method of production, of types and in quantities that have no justification for prophylactic, protective or other peaceful purposes;
2. weapons, equipment or means of delivery designed to use such agents or toxins for hostile purposes or in armed conflict.” Biological Weapons Convention
Pretending GOF, Gain of Function research, isn't BW, Biological Weapons research quickly gets disingenuous after you kill a few million people, and the weasel words don't work for long.
Sure, but... trying to suck CO2 out of the air with little machines is like trying to bail out the ocean with a thimble.
Good point, also anything I can do to reduce my "carbon footprint" is also trying to bail out the ocean with a thimble. Furthermore if the entire US were zero emission it would still be trying to bail out the ocean with a thimble. So fuck it we wont do anything.
Adding NaHCO_3 to an acidic solution results in the release of bubbles: Alka-Seltzer. Those bubbles are... wait for it... CO_2.
The oceans Are Not Becoming Acidic, they are becoming very slightly less basic. Seawater naturally has sodium carbonate / bicarbonate and calcium carbonate buffer systems, algae and bacteria use the carbonate and bicarbonate ions as a source of carbon to build themselves.
The bigger surprise for me is that it worked. When did US laws start applying to newspapers in South Africa?
When they use US based AWS for serving those web pages.
The word you're looking for is chattle, It's San Francisco, you couldn't pay enough to be competitive with the cost of living and the societal collapse on the streets.
Some industries have very rigorous communications retention requirements which encrypted messages would complicate.
