In 2017, Equifax suffered the worst breach in history, leaking the deep, nonconsensual dossiers it had compiled on 148m Americans, 15m Britons and 19k Canadians, to form an immortal, undeletable reservoir of kompromat and readymade identity-theft:

A Depression-era photo of a used car lot with three cars for sale. It has been hand-tinted. The sky has been replaced with a 'code waterfall' effect as seen in the credit sequences of the Wachowskis' 'Matrix' movies. All of the car headlights have been replaced with the hostile red eye of 'HAL 9000' in Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey.'

Equifax knew the breach was coming. It wasn't just their top execs liquidating their stock in Equifax before the announcement of the breach - it was also that they ignored *years* of increasingly urgent warnings from IT staff about the problems with their server security.

We're living through one of those moments when millions of people become suddenly and overwhelmingly interested in fair use, one of the subtlest and worst-understood aspects of copyright law. It's not a subject you can master by skimming a Wikipedia article!

1/ EFF's banner for the 'Unfiltered' white paper, depicting TV static overlaid with a parody of the Youtube logo and wordmark, but instead of 'Youtube' it reads 'Fair Use,' with glitched vertical and horizontal sync that distorts the logo.

I've been talking fair use with laypeople for decades. I've met so many people with the unshakable, serene confidence of the *truly* wrong, like those who think fair use means you can always take x words from a book, or y seconds from a song, and no more.

EVs won't save the planet. Ultimately, the material bill for billions of individual vehicles and the unavoidable geometry of more cars-more traffic-more roads-greater distances-more cars dictate that the future of our cities and planet requires public transit - *lots* of it.

1/ A firebombed cityscape under a smoky red sky. In the foreground is a gigantic brick, most of the length of a city block, with a set of solar panels atop it.

But no matter how much public transit we install, there's always going to be *some* personal vehicles on the road, and not just bikes, ebikes and scooters.

There's a truly comforting sociopathy snuggled inside capitalism ideology: if markets are systems for identifying and rewarding virtue, ability and value, then anyone who's failing in the system is actually *unworthy*, not unlucky.

1/ A 19th century woodcut depicting a sadistically grinning jailer standing in the door of a cell of a wretched debtor's prison, in which three prisoners sit in attitudes of misery and hopelessness.

That means the winners are not just lucky (and certainly not merely selfish), but actually *the best* and they owe nothing to their social inferiors apart from what their own charitable impulses dictate.

The US has the rich world's most expensive health care system, and that system delivers the worst health outcomes of any country in the rich world.

1/ A male figure with a doctor's scrub-cab and forehead mirror holds another male figure, head swaddled in bloody bandages, by his bunched collar. The doctor's arm is pulled back to punch the patient. The doctor's fist is translucent, revealing his jacket and tie. They are posed on a chalkboard background. Written on this chalkboard, in chalk handwriting font, is endless lines of cryptic medical billing-codes.

Also, the US is unique in relying on market forces as the primary regulator of its health care system. All of these facts are related!
