The United States has no agency.
That serious accounts with large following are engaged in the BS is depressing. Also dangerous.

ICO writes to Meta over 'concerning' AI smart glasses report Videos, including of glasses-wearers using the toilet or having sex, are sometimes reviewed by a Kenya-based subcontractor.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

Strange tendency of people to acknowledge that everything said by Trump team is bullshit, except when it confirms their prejudices.

This is a bullshit explanation because
⦿ Israel would not have attacked without a green light from Trump
⦿ Trump ordered the massive American build-up weeks ago, preparing for war
Trump wants to take credit if the regime falls in Tehran, and put the blame on Israel otherwise

Don't worry, if Iran collapses into chaos of warring factions, Trump will welcome several million refugees to America.
