Outrageous—@Rendon63rd & @AssemblyDems have just moved to table any efforts to close the digital divide this year. The Senate is ready to act. @GavinNewsom is ready to act.
The Assembly should not close for 2020 until they do something to help families lacking broadband access. https://twitter.com/EFF/status/1300123516247785473

As we've said, app mandates are the wrong call. Richmond schools should not force students and staff to install contact tracing apps on their devices https://www.nbc12.com/2020/08/24/mayor-stoney-asks-richmond-colleges-universities-require-covidwise-app/

Expecting to see a rise in college suicides and vandalism as partying comes under lockdown. A more optimistic view would be that students might turn to protesting to let off steam.

“Not a Family Friendly Event”: Militia Leader Invokes Kenosha Killer on Eve of “Straight Pride” Rally Backed by Local Pastors https://itsgoingdown.org/straight-pride-modesto-militia-2020/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
I'm going to have to go back to Google as my default search engine. After using DuckDuckGo for a while, I've found that I get way too many links to Microsoft-related web sites. I'd rather be in bed with Google than Microsoft. Google's targeting selections is less annoying than seeing too much Microsoft. Wish there was a way to default to relevant search selections rather than capitalism-driven search selections.

The other factor is the left wing voters. They were shocked (maybe not totally shocked) by the Democratic Party's underhandedness in 2016, but given the progressive slant shown elections to Congress, they should be downright pissed! "Fool me once, shame on you! Fool me twice, shame on me!" Should we jeopardize our momentum of people taking to the streets by voting for Biden?
