Not all instances need an email. The porn one didn't.
Suspending the platform seems a bit harsh, but throwing them some massive fines for the lack of content moderation is necessary to stop the spewing of all the divisive hateful shit that we see in the US.
No. It's the truth. There were nazis on the border. On the right of the border. Read.
The top financial partner of former president Donald Trump’s media company violated antifraud provisions and misled investors about its initial plans to take the owner of Trump’s Truth Social website public, the Securities and Exchange Commission said Thursday.
Digital World Acquisition — the special-purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, that had planned to merge with Trump’s company – agreed to pay $18 million and revise its false filings to comply with securities laws, SEC officials said.
Though that penalty will cap a long-running investigation, the SPAC’s proposed merger with Trump Media & Technology Group remains stalled. The blank-check company could be forced to liquidate if the merger does not conclude before a Sept. 8 deadline, returning to investors roughly $300 million that Trump’s company has long hoped to unlock.
When Digital World announced its initial public offering in September 2021, the company told investors that neither it nor its executives had participated in any merger discussions with any companies, in line with federal SPAC rules.
But Digital World’s then-chief, the Miami financier Patrick Orlando, had in fact discussed a merger with Trump Media seven months earlier, the SEC said. The announcement confirms what has been long rumored about the proposed merger, including claims from Will Wilkerson, a Trump Media executive who told the SEC in a whistleblower filing last year that the company had violated securities laws. Wilkerson was fired after speaking with The Washington Post. Digital World “failed to disclose its discussions with TMTG and failed to disclose a material conflict of interest of its CEO and Chairman,” said Gurbir S. Grewal, the director of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement. "These disclosure failures are particularly problematic because investors focus on factors such as the SPAC’s management team and potential merger targets when making financial decisions.”
Trump and his Republican allies have long accused the SEC of political bias in stalling the merger.
I think the man has been, for likely at least half his life, in Banana Land where he creates his own reality. Now that they're closing in on his arrest he's turned himself into The Punisher or some kind of superhero.
people try to make here that it's already good enough to replace Reddit is pure cope.
It's good enough for me, and apparently others. And his replies reek of /iamverysmart
I'm keeping my expectations low after the Tenet experience. Probably the last Nolan film that I've enjoyed was Interstellar and even that one had bits that imho lowered the overall quality of the movie.
I don't have anywhere close to enough time to actually be the person who starts and moderates communities. If enough people start them and start participating in them then I'll start participating again, but "be the change" only works when people have free time to do it. I would love for Lemmy to take off, don't get me wrong, but all I was saying is that it hasn't yet and the claim people try to make here that it's already good enough to replace Reddit is pure cope.
But you do have enough time to assume that your personal opinion on a matter speaks about everyone's else. It doesn't.
Probably all romance languages
