Today I delivered a letter to the @FTC signed by 58 state legislators from 28 states calling for repair scores. No one walks into a store thinking "I’m going to buy something unfixable," but how do we know what’s designed to last and what’s destined for the dump? #RightToRepair

My next book is *The Internet Con: How to Seize the Means of Computation.* It's a recipe to disenshittify the web and bring back the old good internet. The book is from @VersoBoooks, but the #audiobook is from me - because Amazon refuses to sell it: kickstarter.com/projects/docto… 1/

@yaelwrites @EFF will be there in force (incl. me)

Super smart. reddit.com/r/MadeMeSmile/…

Pleased that Justice Alito called out @EFF's amicus brief in today's Jack Daniels TM hearing. Here a little background: eff.org/deeplinks/2008…

@jamie_love not today anyway

I don't see how SF comes back from this series of injuries and penalties.

@EFFFalcon @rachelmetz Each?

@rachelmetz Depends on which part of the Bay Area. SF? I'd say probably 250k at least. Further out, less but it'll still be above 200k.

For a family of four in the Bay Area today, what do you think two adults *each* need to make, on average, to afford a mortgage (don’t forget property tax), childcare for 2 young kids, and general life expenses in the Bay Area today? (Excluding any “fun” stuff like a vacation.)

@Drew_Morris Worked so I could graduate with less debt. One of those jobs helped lead to my current job @eff.

Serious question for ppl who weren’t law school gunners… What did you do the entire time? If u ask me, 3 years is an awful long time to sit in silence in drafty lecture halls.

@charles_duan Congratulations!

Really delighted and excited about this!

Twitter doesn't have to be a horrorshow. @jasonisbell responded to nastiness with kindness, and this fan found his own better angels. And we all got to watch a nice little story unfold.

OK people, finally got around to it. I'm @cmcsherr@sfba.social at the other place. Will look for you there. Or some of you anyway.

I know everyone wants to use this site to talk about this site but I want to use it to flag an equally important crisis: giving 5 stars to RECIPES YOU HAVEN'T TRIED BUT LOOK YUMMY. People, they all look good. If you don't know how it tastes, save it till you do.

@wjmaggos @scheer_post Yep, @EFF is a strong proponent of adversarial interop! eff.org/deeplinks/2019…

"The ascendence of Elon Musk to the ownership of Twitter has brought fresh publicity to that debate because Musk has at times spoken against some moderation that he defines as censorship." scheerpost.com/2022/11/04/is-…

This is very true. I have plenty of concerns about Twitter but they have been there for some important fights that aren't well known.

If you are remembering Mike Davis today (which you should) I recommend this piece in the New Yorker. newyorker.com/news/californi…

@carlmalamud @EtienneT_Esq And/or read a court transcript where the reporter did not take pity on you and mostly edit out your tics.

I try so hard to speak without verbal tics. Such an annoying problem

Thoughtful piece from @EthanZ on trust and safety past and present. Worth a read, especially as SCOTUS gets ready to weigh in on Section 230. ethanzuckerman.com/2022/09/30/gov…

@jilliancyork I simply do not believe this.

@mmasnick @DevinCow 100 grand isn't first (reeses and mounds are better) but supper underrated nonetheless

100 Grand

@lenazun so so good
