Obama breaking Campaign finance law(s)


Recommended Posts

Okay okay it was me. I deleted the posts.

Okay, no I didn't. But I hope it was a mistake because even though Neowin is a dictatorship, I hope free speech has SOME value here. Even if the speech is viewed as unpopular.

You know who did it--

Obama,

since he said "I AM THE PRESIDENT AND THE BUCK STOPS HERE!"

(I know he didn't delete the post)

I love free speech though it would be nice to debate things like the pro's and con's of Privatizing FEMA without someone saying - NO NO NO because Romney suggested it. Or flaming at me instead of actually talking about the topic

there are some Pro's and Con's to it

Pro-

There will be accountability to the Better Business Bureau

Companies will go out seeking people to help instead of waiting on the GOV and State approval.

If they don't do a good job they don't get paid instead of what happened to Katrina where nothing happened and they still got paid for doing nothing.

There will be more than just one company looking to help people which means better service...

BUT MOST OF ALL

JOBS

plus Colleges training people for this work.

Con's

that it will no longer be under the control of the Government Agency instead - only to pay for quality services rendered

No one will get paid to sit on their bottoms while people suffer.

But you know most people won't listen to that instead shut it down because of where the idea came from instead of actually debating it.

Hahahaha!! It's Obamas fault.

But on topic, I agree with you. People only flame instead of talking about the actual problem and it's a real issue. It sucks because it means we will never get things done. I love to debate, I honestly do, and I can admit when I am wrong, but sometimes I don't even bother because the conversation will get derailed anyway.

Perhaps those who had their posts deleted can repost them?

For the sake of Neowin's neutrality, I do hope that mods are not deleting posts that challenge their political idelology.

LOL. You must be new to Neowin.

I agree. I don't mind debating but I refuse to respond to people who seem to be intent on starting a flame war.

    • I'm not unblocking my camera for this crapola. Sorry, Google.
    • Ummmm that is what is it supposed to do. Just turn if off in settings if you do not want it analyzing your open tabs. Chrome does the same thing with Gemini. Sarfari will do the samething after Apple's AI and even more so with the release of their 27 versions that is now powered by Googles LLM/ML models. Understanding why it is doing it and how it can help you vs jumping to some conspiracy theroy is a much better approach. As long as it can be turned off, all is good. Yes the default should be off but the a lot of people would never discover these features.
    • Just another reason (aside from many others) not to use Edge. Firefox 153.0b5 DEx64 has a similar feature added recently in prior builds that I will turn off at some point when I get around to it. It's the new "Something looks suspicious" page that pops up here and there. It cleverly hides itself between web pages that I've actually visited; as a result, you know, of selecting a web page and telling the browser where to go. The interesting thing is that it does not produce these warnings from pages that I, as the only intelligent user of the browser in my system, have ever directed the browser to open! What seems to be happening is that the browser looks at all the goofy ad links on a web page I do actually open and selects one that "looks suspicious" and then creates the "something looks suspicious" web page, which is neatly inserted, as mentioned, between web pages my RB ("real brain") has directed the browser to load in a session. The thing is, I usually look at links I am considering to follow before I ask the browser to load them, and in cases I have noticed where the link does indeed look suspicious, most of the time I will choose to not follow the link at all. Doesn't everyone do this or something similar? I am picky about what I voluntarily load... (I don't like links that start off fine, with a site designaiton that seems normal enough but then is followed by indecipherable alphanumeric strings many, many lines long, etc. I tend to reject those because they look suspicious. They may not be, but I don't care... I'll stay with Firefox, of course, if for no other reason than they usually let you turn off the junk you don't like. And because it isn't Edge... But at some point Microsoft will come to realize that putting your bookmarks on the left side is a Good Thing for a lot of people, just as Microsoft discovered when it had the bright idea of nailing the Windows taskbar to the bottom of the screen, when for decades Microsoft browsers had left that placement up to the user. They have finally reversed the obscenity of that decision. Finally.
    • Google was using the old CATPCHAs data to train their LLMs. What is the say they won't use this camera data of users to train their LLM? these companies need some strict regulations!
