  • Long story short, he was always a slimy asshole, but here are some key points from wikipedia and just in regards to his mayoral position:

    • Hated the homeless and tried to have them “removed”(used cops to arrest them and shove them in overcrowded shetlers. A church ended up suing the city for their right to help homeless people)

    • “cracked down on crime”, by basically aggressively arresting people for minor crimes like jumping the turnstile.

    • Tried to stop multiple community service proogram for the mentally ill, elderly, day-care, etc.

    • Big fan of “eminent domain” to take buildings and give them to his sponsors.

    • Racist with multiple racist pollcies, many staffers and leaders left because of him.

    • He threaten funding for the Brooklyn Musem if they didn’t remove several pieces, specifically including one called “The Holy Virgin Mary” which was of a black person. Calling it a governement-supported attack on christianity and they had to sue the city.

    • Campaigned on fixing public schools, but cut $2bill of their budget and $4.7bill from the repairs budget

    • Two days after Columbine he said he wanted to “blow up” the Board of Education.

    • Wanted to imprison the teachers union president if they went into strike(their contract was up and the city hadn’t started any renegotiation)

    • Allegedly cheated on his wife with his spokeswoman

    • Tried to threaten Time Warner to have Fox on their cable network, and defended Murdoch when all the surveillance and bribery scandals came about

    • His administration lost 22 out of 26 civil liberty lawsuits against them, mostly for trying to stifle first amandment rights.

    • He wanted a deal with Virginia in which they had to take NYCs trash, in exchange for them being able to visit NYCs culture sites. He also tried to send it to New Jersey, and announced that wihtout actually talking to them first, at all. This all happened because he closed a landfill 20-30 years too early , because he didn’t like how it looked, so it had to be shipped out of town. Costing millions, causing even more pollution, etc.

    And much, much more.

    The point wasn’t to skip breakfast, it was that a big one isn’t necessary. Have a piece of toast, have a giant breakfast or none at all. It’s usually fine to follow your bodies need if you’re hungry or thirsty. It’s just that some people think it’s important to have a big breakfast, which is a untrue. A small refreshing or nurishing one is much better in many cases.

    I’m really glad I live in a place where this driver would get a big fine the first time they’re stopped, and most likely get their vehicle impounded if they were seen more than a few days later with the lights still attached.

    (EDIT: Anyone complaining that they need this many are lying or they have very low intelligence. If you need this llevel of light, you have a generator and actual lights in the back of the truck. If you need one or two of the huge ones for actual work, you’d have covers for them, which makes it legal again(since you’d have to stop the car and get out to turn them on, and can’t just flick them on while driving since that is a deadly hazard to others))




  • It’s a custom protocol that uses SSL/TLS for key exchange and such, so it can be detected. It’s actually causing huge problems for many large Russian companies, as it’s common to use those protocols for remote access, work, etc.

    As mentioned in the article you need something like “Shadowsocks” to avoid protocl blocking, since it fully disguises the traffic as standard SSL/TLS. Which was created for, and is still used to circumvent this type of blocking in “the great firewall of china”.

    The ceo is a bigoted asshole, Brave is chromium, it was initially funded by Peter Thiel and they’re literally just trying to make their own adsense network.

    The self-proclaimed privacy focused browser is tracking your browsing and want to serve you personalized ads, and I think they want to use that tracking data for AI training as well, meaning other people can potentially access it.

    And lets not forget about their crypto currency that you can earn by turning on special ads. Which they seemingly unironically called it “Basic Attent Tokens”…

    TL;DR: The company is basically a sham company trying to usher in a dystopia. Where you’ll get paid for staring at ads, while having all your data stolen and sold back to you.
