It’s just a shame that there’s really only one government organization globally that will still stand up to corporations.

To be fair China will send you to a reeducation camp or disappear you if you try to act like a western billionaire.

China will make you disappear for many things including speaking up against the genocide of religious minorities ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The current US Federal Trade Commission is quite agressive compared to other FTCs historically.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

True. Though they have been stuck with 30 years of damage simply reverse too.

Think of it as 30 years of rent they're now claiming.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Yes, but they haven't fixed this specific problem that just broke in the last day or so, therefore the FTC is a corrupt useless organization that pours hot wax on kittens
