I wish I could say this was surprising. People have absolutely no idea how bad healthcare has become in most of America. The people you see are usually doing their best, but the MBAs running the hospitals are not.

And I find it reaaaaaaal interesting that this AI and PR company appears out of nowhere to make a case study defending Taylor Swift against bigotry accusations and not like… any of the actual astroturfing the far right bot farms do which is by far the most common case of this happening.

Chic hits #1 today in 1978 with “Le Freak”, a song originally titled “F**k Off!” — and written after the band was turned away by the bouncers at Studio 54.
“We go back to my apartment really pissed off,” said Nile Rodgers, “and Bernard starts singing, ‘Ahhh, f**k off!’ .. and that became the hook.”

Here's Google's latest report, showing just under half of GDPR-based delisting requests -- affecting 3 million webpages -- were legally invalid.
This is unvetted data. But last I checked DPAs were generally agreeing with Google's standards, so I think we can assume they get this more or less right.
