To be honest, I have absolutely no idea. I'm not an attorney. But I do know when the decision has been made to buck those companies it hasn't ended well. It's been pretty similar to that old Simpsons episode when Homer was "acquired" by Microsoft.

I totally get it. I'm currently in a situation where we're competing with a Microsoft, Google, and Amazon among others and simultaneously have to purchase their services to remain relevant. I'm actually shocked at the number of times I've been in this situation. It feels gross. But they own it all.

I've been in Tech for nearly 30 years. I actually predate Google. I assure you, if you are doing business online and hope to reach the masses aka the World, you will accept Google's terms. If you don't, you will not be in business long. It sucks, I hate it, but I've seen how this works. A lot!

Are you involved with any other technology companies in any capacity? I'm curious what their online presence is and how they're operating with companies like Google, who are basically the backbone of online communication.

Thank you! Sorry about that, I didn't see it was in response to another post.

I'm genuinely curious. What is causing you to do this? I've had to reinstall once so far, but that was after a switch to a new iphone after the phone to phone xfer didn't work correctly. I've never had to touch the cache settings, but maybe I should.

I'm trying desperately to stick around till it finally implodes, but it's so toxic, it's barely worth the hassle just for the schadenfreude.

They're barely wearing masks in the hospitals these days. I've had doctors offer to put them on like they're asking if it's ok if they smoke. WTF is wrong with this Country?!?!?

I too have had issues with Joy's show lately but this is a bit harsh. Some of these accusations sound like you turn on the show, find out who's on, then turn it off because you think you know how it's going to be framed. I can't make any excuses for that clown Charlemagne but the rest is off base.

I concur. I worked at 2 different banks while in College. Our ATMs didn't balance way more often than I would have ever guessed.

The fact that you're supporting integration with your competition is HUGE! I wonder if ol' Bry Bry has reached out to Mastodon to ask why they won't fully open their APIs. Just kidding, we know he hasn't. It's easier to complain about the service that is at least trying to bridge the gap.

I just don't understand why these stories surprise people. Trump is truly cornered. He is literally fighting for his freedom. We knew he was capable of anything in 2016 when he didn't really want to win. What the hell do you think he'll do when he HAS to win?????

Why the hell would anyone be willing to even give BlueSky a look? Dorsey is exactly how Twitter became the chaotic hellscape that it is! He's literally patient zero! Trusting Jack is literally trusting the guy that FORCED Elmo to buy Twitter! 🤦🏾♂️

I feel like people developed an addiction to Twitter after so many years. Like many addictions, quitting cold turkey is hard. So they use a "step down". Threads is the Methadone to Twitter's Heroin. Soon folks will realize they've traded deck chairs on the Titanic. Then they'll keep looking.

This really isn't shocking at all. Terrible people elect terrible people! We spend too much time focusing on the representatives and not the irreparably flawed people who keep electing them.

I feel it's more important to find competent candidates that understand their own flaws and surround themselves with people that make them stronger in their weak areas. That's exactly what Biden has done. This is the most competent admin I've ever seen and the Obama admin was extremely competent.

It's pretty obvious, Musk has a serious mental issue. He's got an insatiable need to be liked and approved. He can only get that unconditional love from the MAGA ilk. So he appeals to them at all costs, including his own.

They refuse to detain the man properly. Even Trump, a man with his own plane, can't be dumb enough to just sit and wait for them to lock him up. He'll flee, even if it means leaving his family behind. He's never been an honorable man. Why the hell do they keep giving him the benefit of the doubt?
