We are so strong, no one is allowed to comment on their post.

This last session of the Utah Legislature, I was in a committee meeting discussing SB225. This bill included additional water for data centers around the inland port. I asked if the committee would just wait for the data on how much water the data centers were consuming before passing the bill. Several other people commenting also expressed concerns. Then one gentleman said, “it’s not that much,” and the bill moved favorably out of committee. Not that much. Is that an acceptable calculation? What would compel Senators to not even ask questions? Who is signing the deals? How much water is being sucked from humans for data and AI? How much can they really add to the local economy after building is done and they run on a skeleton crew? How do they really offset the property tax discounts they’re given, and what are those incentives? Who is responsible for this promotion of tech over humans? le.utah.gov/Session/2026/b…

What is the next step?

@StratRedTM Wait. What happened to no kings.

So, a Utah Congressional Candidate was just endorsed by the Group, "Boyfriends We Deserve?" Well, that has to be the most interesting way to lose an election that I've seen lately.

@GG2025395451 @JStuartAdams Ukraine isn’t the beginning or the end of foreign interests.

@helpmejeng Ask @JStuartAdams why Ukraine? Why not focus on Utah? Is Stuart being paid to focus on Ukraine?

Name calling and labeling is completely within the first amendment. People in office hate it, but they also participate. I attended a Capitol tour after the Governor had declared the biggest tax cut in Utah history (2024). The data I was seeing showed that taxes had just been shuffled and a representative from the governor’s office confirmed that “moving taxes to more local entities” was better. This question put me in his radar and afterwards, he asked my name and where I lived. I told him and then asked a favor in return: Please let the Governor know that if he doesn’t like being called a Rino, should stop calling people extremists. The staffers response: “Oh, we’re not doing that!” A few months later, after losing at convention and yelling at delegates, Spencer Cox called them extremists, in writing, in an email, across the state, while campaigning on “Disagree Better.” This kind of leadership has been adopted by other people in office. Davis County has a commissioner running for the legislature, encouraging other signature gathering candidates to boycott debates being held by the Davis County Conservatives. Shoutout to those who attended anyway, of respect of the voter. We don’t get to a place of understanding without discussion and accountability.

@UriahandIngrid @flintdm @NatalieforUtah Let’s not forget about the “dangerous game.”

@mcsuggafree Big life event. Our kids will never be little again.

Somebody got his Learner Permit today!!! Why am I tearing up?

I am the Director of Professional Signal Intelligence at LinkedIn. Every time you log in, we search your computer. Not metaphorically. We run code that scans your installed software. Every browser extension. Every application. We catalog it. We transmit it to our servers. We share it with a third-party cybersecurity firm you've never heard of. The tracking pixel is zero pixels wide. We hid it off-screen. You never consented. We never asked. Our privacy policy doesn't mention it. That's networking. We call the program Project Handshake internally. The Slack channel is handshake-telem. In 2024 we scanned for 461 products. By February this year we scan for over 6,000. I don't know what all of them are. Nobody does. Someone on my team added categories for browser extensions that identify practicing Muslims. Someone added extensions for neurodivergent users. Someone added 509 job search tools. That last one is my favorite. We can tell which of our one billion users are secretly looking for new jobs. On the platform where their current boss checks their profile. That's networking. We scan for 200 products that compete with LinkedIn's sales tools. Apollo. Lusha. ZoomInfo. We know each user's real name, employer, and job title. We mapped exactly which companies use which competitor products. We extracted their customer lists from their users' browsers. Without anyone knowing. Then we sent legal threats to the users we caught. The EU told us to open our platform to third-party tools. We published two restricted APIs. They handle 0.07 calls per second. Our internal API, Voyager, handles 163,000 calls per second. In Microsoft's 249-page compliance report, the word "Voyager" appears zero times. That's networking. I presented our Software Disclosure Rate metrics at a leadership summit last quarter. The conference room is called The Fishbowl. Glass walls. Appropriate. There's a plaque on the wall. Q3 Competitive Landscape Award. I won it for the extension scanning initiative. Someone asked if users had a way to opt out. I said they can close their browser. The room laughed. I wasn't sure why. I browse LinkedIn on a Chromebook with no extensions. Most of the team does. The platform that helps you get hired searches your computer every time you visit. We know your name. We know your employer. We know your religion. Your disabilities. Your politics. Whether you're looking to leave. That's networking. The system works exactly as designed. I designed it.

@Utahfarmersorg1 Ai companions are teaching our kids that life after death is better. Disconnection leads to higher rates of depression. The decision has to be made between property tax and income tax, but neither can be done until we cut spending.

Real leadership is having no State Personal Income tax like 9 other states. If we cut higher ed employees 50%, used AI, and taxed professional services, we could end Utax's Personal Income tax. 71,000 higher ed employees for 216,000 higher ed students gets an F. One employee per two students at the U gets an F. Utax can get along with $20,000 in state taxes per home instead of $26,000. President Harding cut federal spending 50%. Things worked out fine. Gov't is spending more than its fair share.

We are the highest taxed red state. Our housing costs are third highest (per capita). These are platitudes when you’ve created the biggest problem Utah is facing.

@lahansen12 Or put people over tech. 40+ data centers using millions of gallons of water and excessive amounts of every need to pay an increased rate for increased usage.

I guess we either need to move all of the mountains that supply water, or move all of the people to another state. We have a geography and water problem. We can't build houses in the middle of the desert and expect eternal growth to be affordable. Most of California's population is on the west side of the mountains. East of the mountains, is continuous desert

@schulz_kat90668 @phil_lyman @bdahlevans

@schulz_kat90668 @phil_lyman Wow. This seems like an essential need.

@donMiguelSLC @flintdm @phil_lyman @GovCox @UtahGOP Wow. Why are so many people ok with this?

Consider that during the 2024 @UtahGOP Primary election, Tanner Leatham (owner of Gathering Inc.) would publicly defend the actions of his employees and deny any illegal acts on the part of his employees. Consequently, he mocked @phil_lyman for questioning the validity rate of the Cox candidate petitions submitted by the paid signature gatherers. The following year, a Whistleblower provided us with one of the investigations into @GovCox candidate petitions (AG24-170). According to the @UtahAG investigators, Tanner was aware that forgeries were being submitted by his employees. Moreover, @LGHendersonUtah alerted Leatham that the forgeries were discovered even before they notified the @UtahAG - Let that sink in.

🚨Gather Inc is back! In ‘24, Gather Inc submitted thousands of forged signatures for @govcox. My opponent for CD3 is paying Gather Inc. to collect signatures for her 🤦‍♂️ We need your help to fight back! We are using ONLY volunteers to gather signatures. In order to succeed, we need more people to join our Campaign to Collect 10 Signatures. It’s easy! You can print out a packet at home and gather 10 signatures for us. The instructions tell you everything you need to know. Click here for Instructions: lymanforutah.com/print-petition Who can sign: ANY Republican in Utah Who can gather: anyone who is 18 or over 🇺🇸 Let’s get this done and show the establishment that nothing beats a grassroots army!

@Jensen_Utah Working on it.

Utah could learn a thing or two

@GG2025395451 When someone’s response is overly defensive, it’s a tell.

@helpmejeng What if we are dealing with frauds?

Why I love delegates: Many are experts in their industries. They’re educated on lots of issues because they use their personal time to stay informed. They also took the time to share of their knowledge with the next generation. That person they elected, they check in on their voting record, attend town halls, email, and text their representatives. Even if they get ignored, they’ll still tell a rep what they need to hear. At an event last night, we openly discussed issues we were seeing. People contributed, people disagreed, we continued the discussion without manipulation, anger, or intimidation. We all shook hands. These are delegates. The Caucus Convention system might not be perfect, but it’s the best we’ve got.

@CelesteMaloyUT Please explain. These are the people you are asking to vote for you.

@CelesteMaloyUT please take 2 minutes to explain your reasoning to your voters.

@engineer06548 @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT If there’s any time to respond to voters @CelesteMaloyUT, it’s now.

@phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT first DEi and now this?? Wtf!??!

🚨UTAH Two of our Republican representatives voted to keep the car “kill switch” funding alive. Back on Jan 22, Rep. Thomas Massie tried to pass a simple amendment: stop using our tax dollars to roll out that Biden-era rule forcing new cars to have “advanced impaired driving prevention tech.” Basically, a government kill switch that can watch how you drive and shut your car down if it doesn’t like what it sees. The amendment failed 164-268. 160 Republicans voted YES to kill the funding. But 57 Republicans voted NO, joining 211 Democrats to keep the money flowing. Two of them were from Utah: - Blake Moore - Celeste Maloy This isn’t some standalone bill, it was a direct vote on whether to spend your money building tech that turns your car into a snitch with the power to strand you.
