Same boat. Was so inspired and on board, even recently. I see what others say about him but it didn’t effect me, even as practically every colleague I know complained. I am no longer a supporter in my heart.

My rationale is personal, suddenly. Those things stack up but I saw something specific that made me lose trust in what matters to me, thought I dont think it matters to most people. I want him to succeed so Im not a hater, I want him to push ahead for humanity if he will, with SpaceX, Tesla, the mind pong monkey, the bots.. I still haven't come to terms with reconciling that I wouldnt of thought it could be true, but I saw it myself in real time....manipulating information on twitter. I submitted a thread here about it with screenshots.

I live in Boulder where billboards are banned. It makes a huge difference towards a more peaceful life where the space and sky are open and free.

The value of this, and more so GDPR, however annoying one may find it, is that it gives the consumer rights that they can use to punish a bad actor. The dialogue is not really the point, it's what you can do with the rights that the dialogue gives you.

Additionally, websites could also implement the cookie (and GDPR) dialogues in a way that wasn't painful. The law doesn't say that you have to implement the dialogue in the slowest most CPU intensive way possible.

Any suggestion for a more elegant solution? For example, with copyrights, it’s in many ways granted automatically just by existence. Other terms and privacy rights don’t require popups.

Could chaos theory help explain how and why memes flow? I propose memes are physical and follow patterns that could be more accurately measured and predicted.
