If you got laid off by some chud who did a third as much work as you last year and you want to talk to a reporter about the time he got drunk at the office juneteenth party and started putting pan-african colored cupcakes down his pants while bragging about the time he shoved his fiancée off a ledge in a deserted national park in 1997, my DMs are open.

BREAKING: The pediatrics group suing to ban the abortion drug mifepristone has suffered a major breach. WIRED is reviewing 10K leaked files.

Another story from WIRED stemming from the data breach of a conservative anti-LGBTQ group trying to ban abortion medicine nationwide. The doctors group has been working for years to conceal the fact that its medical recommendations are pegged to its religious beliefs, and that it views "nominal Christians" as threats. Some wild stuff in here like "Christian Hogwarts" https://www.wired.com/story/american-college-pediatrics-christian-threat/

@wjmaggos no. i think this is a case of an exception proving a rule exists. i think the fact that it’s an infant is also part of it, as well as the fact that it’s a piece of art & how it’s staged. the situation is forgiving of the photographer. taking a photo of a nude child might be totally inappropriate, but just about anyone would take this particular photograph without there being anything creepy about it.

@franktaber i can’t read articles by people who start by pretending to be clueless, like they’re discovering facts alongside the reader. it’s just a labor to get through.

My latest at WIRED: A newly declassified report reveals the federal government is stockpiling troves of personal information about Americans, much of it capable of facilitating "blackmail, stalking, harassment, and public shaming." #fbi #cia #odni #doj #nsa #privacy #surveillance https://www.wired.com/story/odni-commercially-available-information-report/

ICYMI, I covered a new anti-#surveillance bill in #Congress yesterday: "The #GSRA is a Christmas list for #privacy hawks and a nightmare for authorities who rely on secrecy and circumventing judicial review to gather data on Americans without their knowledge or consent."https://www.wired.com/story/government-surveillance-reform-act-2023/

#Harvard Law Review voted to censor what would have been its first blog by a Palestinian scholar—specifically, an editor said, because people “might oppose or be offended by it.” The Nation has released it in full: https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/harvard-law-review-gaza-israel-genocide/
