Great research…appreciate the info.

Seriously though. I was massively impressed in the write up.

The people who worked putting this together…would have wrote a comparable book on it.

Great research. I want to get the series saved in one section so I can share it. It’s easier to find a series on YouTube then it is on Substack or maybe I don’t understand how to do that.

That's one of the reasons why I made my website

Yeah, I don’t think they link on this platform.

It’s a bit about how the author posts. You can of course view their posts tab on profile.

You can produce your whole series. Then share it in order on your chat, and that will trigger the subscriptions I think.

I have to say... good work with this one. All inclusive of the artwork and layout -

It's all a blur. This series was a reaction learning something new after writing a reaction to learning something new… and so on

In the 80’s the market crashed because of derivatives. A stock with no tangible value. Money lost by investors laws passed to make such investments tools not legal. Then few years later the savings and loan crisis investors money gone again these thefts of investors money keeps happening. That is why a nation of laws keep things manageable. We must use the constitution to keep order so one side or the other can’t convince themselves they are master race above all others. Those with money made off the backs of people who pay taxes so they can get tax payers loans like Elon musk and become trillionaires and think they’re all that and a bag of chips. Pay back the tax payers money with interest.

I lost my income in 2008/9, regained it in 2010 till 2013 when I retired, lost the entirety of my private pension to a pension scam in 2021 after which I was forced to sell most of the contents of my (rented) house. I am now living proof of what the evil Klaus said: I own nothing and I am happy! Unfortunately it also means that I haven’t wherewithal to pay for subscriptions which often makes me very unhappy but I’m learning to live within my UK state pension and meagre earnings. So I’ll share as wildly as I can

And are we not using smart phones and pc that enable cookies etc, in exchange for the app collecting data? lol

Also, GAEN used anonymized Bluetooth tech to track that, by accounts, was shutdown in 2023. Two points here; did they really shut it down and just turn off your Bluetooth(?).

Fox was approved to purchase Roku, recently. I was going to use Father's Day as an excuse to replace my Roku stick with Apple Tv because it's less likely to use choice influencing software.

There goes my Father's Day present idea.💎

Due to the timing, I am somewhat surprised AOL wasn't involved. They didn't really fizzle until they dropped Instant Messenger in '17. Took a beating when the Dot Com bubble burst. However, they had 3M+/- subscribers. Or was it included in Yahoo? I seem to recall something about Verizon taking on AOL at some point.
