Gavin Newsom's position is clear: if it costs corporations money, or could cost corporations money, he will veto it, no matter who it protects or who it harms.

The man is another corporate toady, and nothing else. His priorities are CEO priorities, the same ones we see cozying up to Trump now.

"“While I strongly support the author’s goal of establishing necessary safeguards for the safe use of AI by minors, (the bill) imposes such broad restrictions on the use of conversational AI tools that it may unintentionally lead to a total ban on the use of these products by minors,” Newsom said."

"now ordinarily I'd say these chuds would have an argument if they complained that a highly athletic lady in a video game didn't have a giant ass forged from ages of calisthenics, but the way these games rely on squeezing through narrow passages to disguise load times, a giant butt would get stuck!"

i feel as someone who holds a passport for both countries that it would be the most american thing to look at these companies that are floundering because the canadian market is rejecting them and say "if you couldn't hack it without canadians bailing you out, maybe it was just never meant to be"

I love the dismissive use of “bruised feelings” to describe Canadians’ genuine fears, as if the US head of state was not repeatedly and openly threatening to annex their nearest neighbour. Fuck your whisky, dude. Get that asshole and all of his lackeys out and then maybe we’ll talk.

annoying counterpoint: american businesses are not innocent bystanders, the market they sought to exploit revolted.

CNN: Canada's boycott America movement is hurting innocent bystanders.

New York —
Virginia Distillery CEO Gareth Moore was bullish on his company’s American single malt whisky sales north of the border when 2025 kicked off.
But then demand crashed as the centuries-long friendship between the United States and Canada broke down amid bruised feelings over tariffs and President Donald Trump’s threat to make Canada the 51st US state.
“We were looking to triple the business. Instead, it collapsed to zero,” Moore told CNN in a phone interview. “It was almost like suddenly the whisky didn’t taste good because of where it’s from.”
Canadian officials went so far as to ban American spirits from their store shelves, a prohibition that still exists in many provinces today.
Virginia Distillery is hardly the only American business caught in the middle of the rocky US-Canada relationship.
“This was all about some ugliness that we’re not part of,” Moore said. “We’re not in politics. We’re just some guys in Virginia making good whisky. But unfortunately, we’re the victims.”
Canadian visitors vanish
It’s not just that Canadians are refusing or unable to drink American booze due to bans. It’s also that many are deciding not to visit the United States, dealing a blow to countless resorts and travel businesses that once relied on a steady stream of Canadian visitors.
On a normal year, roughly 70% of the daily golfers at the Bluff Point Golf Resort in Plattsburgh, New York are Canadians. Not this year.

“There is definitely a sense of national pride being offended. People said, ‘Well, if it’s going to be like that, I have a choice and my choice is not to travel to the United States,’” Collins said.
Hurt by a “grim” decline in cross-border bookings, Collins said his company has been forced to shrink its schedule sharply and lay off a quarter of its workforce.
Ironically, those layoffs have hit Clipper Navigation’s US workforce the hardest.
“We’re hunkering down. It doesn’t look like it’s getting better anytime soon,” Collins said.
Reluctance to visit the US
Executives say another factor behind the drop in Canadian visitors is concerns about the Trump administration’s aggressive border enforcement.
“People started feeling like it’s risky to cross the border,” Collins said.
Geoff Freeman, president and CEO of the US Travel Association, told CNN that some foreign visitors from Canada and other countries fear they will be detained or have their devices searched when going through customs.
“The perception is that travelers aren’t as welcome as they once were,” Freeman said. “The most important thing the administration can do is send a message to travelers around the world that the US is open to business to legal travelers.”

Freeman said the “big test” will come this winter when tourism hot spots in Texas, Florida and Arizona learn whether the Canadian visitors they’re dependent on will show up.
Jeff Quint, founder and CEO Cedar Ridge Distillery in Swisher, Iowa, was forced to abandon the European market during the first Trump administration due to trade tensions and retaliatory tariffs imposed on American spirits.
Cedar Ridge Distillery refocused instead on Canada, shipping aggressively into Ontario and other provinces. That shift paid off – until this year when some Canadian provinces banned American spirits.
“You hate to invest in a market for two to three years – and then have to bail out of it,” Quint told CNN.

Exports of American spirits to Canada plunged by 85% in the second quarter, according to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States

There have been a lot of theories about Twitch viewership and what Twitch is (or isn't) counting as a result of the view bot update.

We now have an update that I think tries to answer the question "What is a Lurker and what isn't?"
