“Virgin Islands AG Denise N. Rogers declared in court filings Tuesday that she is at an impasse w/ the estate of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein & asked that a Superior Court judge intervene & end the protection of the late sex offender’s associates.” amp.miamiherald.com/news/state/flo…
“...the Epstein estate and the AG have been negotiating a deal to have the liens lifted in exchange for trade-offs. These included: the appointment of Marci Hamilton, a noted advocate for victims of child sex-abuse, to the administration of the compensation fund;...

Det är svårt att föreställa sig om det som sker i Kina. Uppenbarligen samlar de in dissidenter. All internet trafik är spärrad utom de källor som kommer via den kinesiska staten. Det som pågår i Kina angående #Coronavirus är en krigshandling av främmande makt.
Det här viruset är
gjord av människan. Ryssland, Indien, Taiwan vet att viruset innehåller HIV.

Därmed är skiten tillverkad av människan. Det sägs att den slår hårdare mot kinesiska män än mot andra raser, vilket betyder att denna "attack" kommer ej från deras egna led.

Fortsättning följer.

#Facebook claims it has removed accounts operated by the website BL that are linked to The Epoch Media Group. They are wrong in making such a connection.

By @StephenEpoch (Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/facebook-errs-…
#Facebook did not contact Epoch Media Group before stating there is a relationship between Epoch Media Group and the BL.

In a statement published on its website, @Facebook says:
The @EpochTimes and The BL media companies are unaffiliated. The BL was founded by a former employee, and employs some of our former employees.

However, that some of our former employees work for BL is not evidence of any connection between the two organizations.

+++ BREAKING +++
Düsseldorf court has "serious doubts" regarding the legality of @Kartellamt 's decision against #Facebook, suspends the decision.

justiz.nrw/JM/Presse/pres…
@Kartellamt Here is a THREAD with a quick analysis of the decision:
1/ In the 1st part of the decision, the court argues that #Facebook 's data collection does not constitute an exploitative abuse. The main argument is the lack of causality between Facebook's (presumed) market dominance and the collection of data.

1. @ANewman_forward and I have a piece in the @FT, on #Facebook and privacy, building on our brand new book, Of Privacy and Power amzn.to/2TWwVWi. Short version - the reason why Facebook is pushing for privacy law goes back to @Snowden revelations. ft.com/stream/ec33ce8…
2. There's a new narrative about Facebook's embrace of #GDPR (@alexstamos gives one recent version of it) - that GDPR is good for companies like Facebook, because it is complex and easier for big companies to comply with than small upstart competitors. Not altogether wrong,
3. but not really right either. Facebook's ginger embrace of European style legislation is making lemonade out of lemons. Zuckerberg would surely have preferred a world with no privacy legislation, where companies were left to self regulate, and market mechanisms predominated.

All you need to know about Facebook (and why you should be concerned), brought to you by the Observer/Guardian's investigation into data and democracy...
Hard to believe it was less than a month ago that @carolecadwalla broke the story about GSR harvesting 50m+ Facebook profiles for @CamAnalytica to use in political campaigning:
Revealed: 50 million Facebook profiles harvested for Cambridge Analytica.. theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…
Via the first major interview with @CamAnalytica whistleblower @chrisinsilico which explained Facebook had known about the leak for at least 18months and detailed Robert Mercer / Steve Bannon's central roles ‘I made Bannon’s psychological warfare tool’: theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…
