The company didn’t run the campaign. They didn’t know what was being transmitted. Their crime was being too trusting of their customer and signing off on the calls without enough scrutiny.

That’s just the telecom company that transmitted the calls. If you read the posted text from the article, the guy who did it is facing criminal charges and a $6m fine

The bars were originally 5 compared to 9 ingredients in a Hersheys bar. They’ve since expanded and now both have 9 from what I’ve heard

They won’t be well if they watch him. One of his main money makers is dishonest and probably illegal lotteries where he suggests almost everyone who buys something from him will get some kind of big prize. In reality, the odds are like 1 in 60000, and the requirement of a purchase for a chance to get the prize is probably illegal.

He also sells chocolate and cookies as “healthy” using similar underhanded promises of rewards. He also runs contests and game shows that are staged and rigged which, again, is illegal on broadcast TV.

Of course, you could also just run 5 GPUs

Doesn’t the constitution explicitly grant states the right to decide how they hold their elections?

Yes, this is the exact intention of the second amendment. Armed resistance against tyrannical government. If the rise of fascism in America isn’t the time to use it, it’s meaningless.

The founding fathers envisioned state militias that would rival the power of the federal army and keep it in check. That ship has sailed, so it already lost a lot of its bite, but any power it still has can only be justified for that purpose

Are you misreading something? According to the graphs, renewables generated 120% of demand during the day and still around 50% at night with no solar
