We are missing a HUGE point. It is illegal for insurance companies to use this data to adjust their pricing.
So why would the insurance companies be buying this data?

Time to start investigations on when they received the data and when their customers started receiving increases in insurance rates.

Unfortunately I call BS on this. These companies know exactly how much that raised prices on exactly which products due to tariffs. Otherwise they would not be able to forecast profit margins.
They also have a record of all CC transactions and which products were purchased and at what price. So they also know exactly who bought what, how many, and how much extra they paid in tariffs.
The companies could pay the customers back but never will.
Maybe next year we could give them a bigger tax break so they can continue to be job creators.

Just to clarify, that is $175 billion of US TAX Payers money, not the government money.
When worded like that it assumes the US Gov creates money to pay stuff with. It receives or creates money from you and me, the tax payer.
As Lindsey Gram said about Iran, "When this regime goes down, we are going to have a new Middle East, and we are going to make a tonne of money." (the we here does not include you or me)

As with everything about this administration squeeze the poor / middle class to give to the rich.

When was the last time wall street had mass layoffs?
How come every idea they come up with makes them tons of money and their investors take the hit?
All of those ideas 10 years later are looked at and decided that is not ethical so maybe we should make a law saying you can't do it.
Then the SEC says you can't make laws.
and around and around we go.

Wait a second, so the pretense was they are "which authorities were investigating for their connection to arson, vandalism and doxing"

And the charges were dropped meaning they had done none of these things at all not even a little bit of connection (or they would have prosecuted). And we are looking at proton mail or self hosting or paying for the site as the issue?
Have we really started missing the real issue?

Comment Mmmm DST is bad (Score 2) 182

The usa tried this going with the daylight savings time instead of standard time.
It lasted 1 year. The outrage was so great they changed it back after 1 year.
Why they didn't just adopt Standard Time is .. well... its congress what do you expect.
Why we can't just keep Standard time year round is absurd to me.

Even if you say that companies and customers are the victims, in todays WH guess who will get paid.

Wall Street firm goes to an importer and says, youâ(TM)ve now paid $10 million in tariffs. Iâ(TM)ll pay you $2 million right now for the right to collect the refund if courts ever end up deciding the tariffs were illegal. My friend had also heard that one of the most aggressive buyers was Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm until recently headed by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and now run by Lutnickâ(TM)s sons.

Comment how did they find out? (Score 1) 37

anyone else wondering how they found out? Was there a common thread that each AI would follow that allowed KPMG to figure out it was AI written?
Requested Firewall logs? or proxy server logs?
The reason I was wondering is are companies now flagging AI written resumes as not legit while putting the resumes through AI to match candidates?
