folks, please turn on the reminder that tells you if you've added alt text before you hit post

I went to my oral surgeon yesterday and was happy that the assistant was masking up. Pointing to my own mask, I said thanks for wearing one; they responded that since being required to wear one in 2020, they realized it helped them prevent catching other illnesses and now always wear one at work.

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker.

The document shows in stark terms the power, and potential risk, of online advertising data and how it can be leveraged by government agencies for surveillance purposes.
ICE also recently said in public procurement documents it was interested in sourcing more βAd Techβ data for its investigations.
This sort of information is a βgoldmine for tracking where every person is and what they read, watch, and listen to,β Johnny Ryan, director of the Irish Council for Civil Liberties (ICCL) Enforce, which has closely followed the sale of advertising data, told 404 Media in an email.
