      And they’re going to get away with it.

      There may be a few sanctuary areas that opt out of giving contracts to these intrusive surveillance contractors like Flock, but enough people have devices in their pockets or their homes that it won’t make much of a difference. Every device a person has with a camera or microphone and a wireless connection is spying on you.

    This is the man who just bought Paramount/CBS and Warner Bros for his son and fired Stephen Colbert.

    If you care about this, you might want to consider whether to ever turn CBS on again.

      He’s another one with Daddy issues. It’s always the Daddy issues.

      Ellison was born on August 17, 1944, in New York City. His mother, Florence Spellman, is Jewish.[6][7] His biological father was an Italian-American United States Army Air Corps pilot. After Ellison contracted pneumonia at the age of nine months, Spellman gave Ellison to Spellman’s aunt and uncle for adoption.[7] Ellison did not meet Spellman again until he was 48.[8]

      Ellison moved with his adoptive parents to Chicago’s South Shore,[9] a middle-class neighborhood with a significant Jewish population. He remembers his adoptive mother, Lillian Spellman Ellison,[10] as warm and loving. He found his adoptive father, Louis Ellison, to be austere, unsupportive, and often distant. A government employee who had made a small fortune in Chicago real estate, only to lose it during the Great Depression, Louis had chosen his last name to honor Ellis Island, his point of entry into the United States.[7]

      Ah yes, let’s deflect from the root cause by dragging the state into this. A state has never opposed its citizens before. Oh wait…
