@omertene This is an indictment of boilerplate privacy policies rather than privacy attorneys, per se.

I asked ChatGPT to draft a Privacy Policy for "my grocery shopping app". It wrote a really nice one. In two seconds (non-billable). Any idea what lawyers will do next?

Feds arrest Sam Bankman-Fried, per the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York @SDNYnews. Bankman-Fried was due to testify Tuesday morning before the House Financial Services Committee about the FTX collapse. #cryptocurrency

@TorEkelandPLLC Wonderful book. Such a strange people. They would have *loved* Twitter.

@daveperera And you know, depending on one’s view of life I could see the cost benefit analysis cutting (ouch) either way. Thoroughly enjoying Mary Beard’s SPQR right now.

Cicero had 20 villas. The power of rhetoric.

It's a feel good story, of a type: $11M returned to @nomadxyz_ after attackers swarmed the #cryptocurrency bridge to exploit a smart contract flaw and drain $190M. @rashmiramesh_ reports: bankinfosecurity.com/nomad-recovers…
