My attempt to use Apple‘s dictation technology to write my new paper on Internet infrastructure would go a lot faster if it could tell the difference between “peering“ and “peeing.”

ANALYSIS | Trump drops a cabinet-level clusterbomb with Gaetz, Gabbard cabinet picks | CBC News U.S. president-elect Donald Trump has named firebrand Republican Representative Matt Gaetz to be his nominee for attorney general, surprising some party members. The Florida congressman has a controversial history on Capitol Hill, to say the least.

"Clusterbomb" is not the compound word starting with "cluster" that I'd use to describe Trump's cabinet picks… www.cbc.ca/news/world/t...

EarthSky | The 5 petals of Venus and its 8-year cycle

Guess what? Voter fraud seems to impact U.S. presidential elections only once every 8 years! And did you know the orbits of Venus & the Earth follow an 8 year cycle? Must be that foreigners are influenced by Venus to interfere in every 2nd presidential election… 🤔 earthsky.org/astronomy-es...

You're right that many of the decrees enacted under the relevant article of the French legislation deal with both imports to and exports from Russia. But the press release doesn't offer us much to go on.

I couldn’t say based on the current publicly available information and my quick read of the relevant French laws. But I was struck by how the provisions to which the press release alludes form the legal basis for parts of France’s export control and sanctions regime against Russia.

Too soon to tell, but will be interesting to see what comes out from France in the next several days.

It seems like the encryption-related aspects of Durov's detention may relate to export controls on encryption, including controls imposed in the aftermath of Russia's 2014 invasion of Ukraine.
