You realize, of course, that FWD.us is a decidedly "leftist" organization?
I'll bet if you read your employment contract carefully, you'll discover that any intellectual property you create while on the clock automatically belongs to your employer. Some places claim ownership over your private projects done off the clock, although I fail to see how that would hold up in court.
So yea, the smart money is on not doing personal projects on company time.
Correct.
Also, regardless of consent laws, public servants engaged in their public duties in a public place have no legal right to privacy under those circumstances.
Maybe because laws aren't the issue, police department policies (that we don't get to vote for) are. For example, the policy of refusing to hire people who score "too high" on aptitude tests, as evidenced by Jordan v New London. That's just the part of the iceburg we can see.

Since most 10th graders know how to use Google, I don't see that being an issue. You realize that the point you're basically arguing here is, "the only people who should be able to understand a doctor's bill are doctors," right?
In this case the patient themselves were denied access to their own info.
It's not malice, it's greed built into the medical billing system. Same reason hospitals don't publish their fee rates.
Don't listen to this idiot. Collection companies have zero duty to assure the legitimacy of the debts they own.

Yea this.
When I read that line I said to my wife, "ERROR implies that it occasionally benefits the patient. This shit is on purpose."
I think once self-driving vehicles are more common, a great deal more effort will be put into map accuracy and route planning.
Putting the cart before the horse, aren't we?
Unless they can navigate ever present, always changing construction zones, those things will be useless in my state.
That's called "team driving," which my aunt and uncle did for decades. The similarity of terms between that and "Teamsters" is probably cause for the confusion.
Computers also lock up, crash, burn out, get hacked, fuck up due to poor coding, etc.
Not that humans are any better - just pointing out that "have a computer do it" isn't the panacea you seem to think it is.
