EFF has a similar article: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/04/utahs-new-law-regulati... The bottom line: > if a website cannot reliably detect a VPN user's true location and the…

Ah your comment finally makes me understand the premise of MMT[1], which seems to presuppose that the US will always have this special status. Makes the current administration's ge…

Taxes, if not quite the price of civilisation, do give citizens a reason to care about efficient and effective government. Severing that connection, and leaving large chunks of the…
