@vari Indeed, I have posted a follow up link.

A link to more detail from the Competition and marketing authority website

@tom_nomad Ah that makes sense, it is probably something that needs to be addressed for the future by putting some safeguards or processes in place to deal with this sort of scenario.

Google Chrome browser privacy plan investigated in UK

This seems like a 'good' thing if it reduces the number of ads,

Google's plan to replace web browser cookies with a system that shares less data with advertisers is being investigated in the UK.

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) said Google's plan could have a "significant impact" on news websites and the digital advertising market.

It had already raised concerns that publishers' profits could sink if they were unable to run personalised ads.

But Google said digital advertising practices had to "evolve".

Indeed, look at what has happened with WhatsApp, change to terms to share more with Facebook. This is one issue with Big Tech,

Great, good to more managed hosting options available :)

@d3vnull This is starting to look more and more like a planned and maybe carefully planned operation.

@aral Just tuned in, Thanks

Once Joe Biden is in it will be time to look at the penal system and for the US people to decide what they want.

Minor offences cannot result in severer penalties, but some people lose their way and need help, rehabilitation needs to do that, and give people a 2nd chance, but not a 3rd, 4th , 5th

As for those involved in what happened in DC, throw a way the key.
