(NYT, March 26, 2022): "On Wednesday, Arizona became the first state to offer digital copies of driver’s licenses and state identification cards as part of a sweeping partnership with Apple that was announced last year. The project is expected to expand to Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Ohio, Oklahoma and Utah, as well as the territory of Puerto Rico.

This is the best aggregate argument against the platform I have seen. Never having used the service, they weren't on my radar, so the defense spending business was news to me. Screw those creeps.

@Rev Rabbit- early computer technology- the IBM punchcards- the Germans had everyones information in a punchcard database- that is how they were able to keep meticulous records…
an industry of death, documented and scrutinized for efficiency at every turn… A-B Aktion

Many, many Chinese kids (mostly female) were effectively sold to Americans in the 1990s.
How exactly am I supposed to be shocked that life is cheap in China in 2022? I've read Pearl Buck.
Nevertheless, kudos for this reminder in your great show.
