I'm really excited about the potential of using Friendica to replace facebook, but atm there's an issue with friendica.world federating with other activitypub instances and I can't start trying to bring people across to here if or if they can't interact with other people in the fediverse (or bluesky via bridgy). It's making me anxious! Should I try another friendica instance? Any friendica people able to share more info about the different friendica instances?

US finalizes rule to effectively ban Chinese vehicles, which could include Polestar

The irony of banning China for using it's carmakers to spy on drivers, when US carmakers spy on drivers.

Tesla workers shared sensitive images recorded by customer's cars. GM sharing driver behaviour without explicit consent with insurers resulting in hikes in insurance premiums for some drivers. Etc etc.

Banning TikTok is Unconstitutional. The Supreme Court Must Step In.

In order to not fall afoul of the First Amendment, the USG must prove that the Chinese gov is manipulating what Americans see on Tiktok and accessing American's data. There's no evidence of either. And China can buy the data on the open market anyway.
