(8.12.2017) GRAPHIC FOOTAGE: Daniel Shaver was fatally shot by Arizona police on Jan. 18, 2016, in the hallway of the hotel where he was staying. Philip Mitchell Brailsford, the officer who killed Shaver, was acquitted of murder charges on Dec. 7, 2017.

(3.12.2017) The case hasn’t attracted the higher degree of attention from the press, the public, or policing-reform activists, partly because body-cam footage of the killing has been withheld from the media and partly because the cop and the dead man were both white, rendering the killing less controversial than one possibly animated by racism. But it warrants more attention than it has received.

(14.12.2017) Heute hat die FCC (Federal Communications Commission) die US-Regeln zur Netzneutralität abgeschafft. Zwei Jahre lang haben diese Regeln sichergestellt, dass das Internet offen und frei bleibt. Kein Netzbetreiber konnte den Zugang zu legalen Inhalten künstlich drosseln oder gar ganz blockieren, kein Endgerät wurde ausgesperrt, und keine große Plattform konnte sich Überholspuren erkaufen, um ihre Dienste schneller an die Nutzer zu liefern.

Like many other celebrities, late night hosts were not happy to learn that the Federal Communications Commision (FCC) voted down net neutrality rules, rescinding customer protections that inhibit Internet service providers (ISPs) from slowing down, blocking, or charging more for certain content.

Als erstes soziales Netzwerk hat Twitter ein speziell für das Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz angepasstes Beschwerdesystem ausgerollt. Das System des Kurznachrichtendienstes verlangt eine juristische Einordnung der gemeldeten Inhalte durch die Nutzer.

“We don’t know exactly where we’re at in the world, militarily, and what we’re doing,” said Senator Lindsey Graham, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, in October. That was in the wake of the combat deaths of four members of the Special Operations forces in the West African nation of Niger.

(11/2017) On Veterans Day 2017, America is poised to create veterans of many more men and women who will take part in our wars, wars that Americans are largely responsible for, wars which rob us of our young people and our treasure, wars that make our target countries uninhabitable and impoverish their citizens, and wars that make us question who we are as a nation. Please join me in honoring our veterans this week by resolving to help end these conflicts and elect leaders who will avoid future ones.
