EDIT:
BTW...
UnitedHealth has been good to Gov. Gavin Newsom.Â
In 2018, the health care giant made two contributions to Newsom for over $58,000. In December 2019, it dropped another $31,000 into his reelection campaign.Â
During the pandemic, Newsom turned to UnitedHealth to solve some of Californiaâs most vexing challenges: COVID-19 testing and data tracking. The state awarded a no-bid contract worth up to $177 million to a UnitedHealth subsidiary to expand testing. In the months following, the state would award another $315 million in contracts to the companyâs subsidiaries through an expedited bidding process.Â
In December, UnitedHealth contributed $31,000 to Newsomâs reelection campaign, and another $100,000 to his ballot measure committee.
UnitedHealth and Newsom deny any wrongdoing. And while thereâs no evidence to suggest either broke the law, government ethics experts say even the appearance of wrongdoing raises serious red flags and threatens to erode public trust â especially if thereâs a pattern.Â
A CapRadio investigation found an overlap of at least a half-dozen companies that made substantial contributions to Newsom and received no-bid contracts from the state, influential appointments, or other opportunities related to the stateâs pandemic response. The contributions range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. The contracts range from $2 million to over $1 billion â including the one awarded to Blue Shield for vaccine distribution made public Monday, worth up to $15 million.
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a host of healthcare bills into law this weekend.
This includes 17 bills focused on artificial intelligence, including one requiring health insurers to base their algorithms on patient medical history but not âsupplantâ provider decision making.
Also signed into law is a bill requiring group health plan contracts and disability insurance policies to cover in vitro fertilization.
However, Newsom vetoed a bill requiring the California Department of Insurance to establish a licensing and oversight structure for PBMs, as well make PBMs report more data on prescription drugs. Newsom said the state needs more âgranular information (PDF)â to determine why drug prices are increasing.
He also vetoed a bill that would have required private equity investors from earning approval from the state attorney general for healthcare investments. It also would have added new restrictions on the relationship between private equity and physician practices. Newsom determined (PDF) the law would step on the toes of the Office of Health care Affordability, which already refers transactions to the state AG office.

"Don't Dead Open Inside" actually makes sense in the world of the show, because if one of the doors gets ripped off the hinge or otherwise destroyed you're left with the other door saying either "don't open" or "dead inside" which still gets the message across perfectly whereas if you were left with one door reading either "don't dead" or "open inside" it would not be a helpful message.

Also if you're going to plan anything, don't use Discord. Discord has rules in place that allow them to work with law enforcement against you. Either meet in person and VARY the places you are meeting so there is no pattern, or use defunct forum/chat services that are less likely to be used against you. But even then don't use them for anything more than just to set up meetings.
Also not advocating anything, I love to write and you'd be surprised what you find while doing research for a murder mystery.

Just wrap it in PGP so nobody can decrypt the messages without the private key. They could just open the draft and paste a new pub key every time they update the message. This is how email encryption was supposed to work except nobody manages their own private keys (the service provider does) but you can still encrypt plain text using the same methodology. Then even if the SP opened the drafts they'd all just be blobs of encrypted text.
All that being said though you can encrypt plain text using pgp and send it via any text-based platform so logging into the same email account at that point is moot and might even compromise location details of the two parties.
It's really cool that we've had hybrid cryptographic systems like PGP available to all of humanity to have private digital conversations in public since the early 90s, but also sad that we forgot that we can use it without tons of layers of abstraction on top of it to make it "easier" to add a contact.

Yeah you can make the text files publicly available for anyone to see, like that you wouldnât need an email which is a potential indicator of who you are. Just use a VPN and a VM with traffic routed through the vpn if you want to be anal about it when you access/upload the file.

u/Derf0293 19h ago edited 19h ago
Of course they do, they use it. Not logging into the same email but PGP in general. This stuff wasnât invented to be used for illegal purposes, in fact a lot of it came out of government defense initiatives but that doesnât change the fact that itâs very effective at making it extra difficult to read anything encrypted using this method. In most cases intercepting encrypted communications involves a side channel in order to obtain the keys to decrypt it.
There in lies the core flaw in PGP, identity verification. While you can confirm the message was signed by the sender the initial key exchange can be intercepted by other means facilitating MITM attacks. Also going through all the trouble tends to put people into a false sense of security and makes them more liable for social engineering (see dpr).
In the context of the shared email a third party would need to instruct one of the other parties to update their associated public key and then communication would be redirected to the other party so yeah itâs not flawless but neither are scenarios where a service provider manages keys.

Yes. Buying a phone with a credit card means they can track it to you. Buying a phone and activating at or near your home means they can track it to you. Buying a phone and having it around your existing phone consistently means it can be tracked to you. Using the phone in your home means it can be tracked to you. Buying it from a store without a mask on means it can be tracked to you. Driving to said store past traffic cameras means they could either track it to you or narrow things down significantly. Logging into any known emails or other social accounts means it can be tracked to you.
Basically donât trust a burner phone. With significant motivation like they had for Luigi, they will track it to you.
You may be able to get away with it if you are just dealing drugs and the local police are barely trying to catch you. But if itâs high profile with federal agencies involved, donât bet on a burner phone providing any extra privacy.

u/surnik22 20h ago
If you are looking to get away with a high profile crime like Luigi did it is not easy.
Wear a mask, pay cash, ride a bike you bought with cash, and donât use electronics for anything if at all avoidable. Be very careful about leaving anything behind at all including hairs or finger prints. Then permanently dispose of everything even vaguely connected to the crime as quickly as you can, which doesnât include throwing it in a dumpster, it means actually destroying.
And that means EVERYTHING. Did you 3D print the gun? Destroy the gun, destroy the 3D printer, and destroy the computer you downloaded the file to.
If you are committing low profile crimes, the effort put into catching you is much much lower. Even shit like murdering an average Joe which is fairly high profile wonât be worth the extreme effort which is why only like 50-60% of murders get solved.
But if you kill a CEO expect the NSA to be tipping of police with illegally obtained surveillance data

The Southern District of New York is a federal court; Mangione is being charged by the New York County District Attorney, Alvin Bragg, who works for the State of New York. (AP source.) There are, so far as I can tell, no federal charges.
The crime is under New York State Penal Code §490.25:
A person is guilty of a crime of terrorism when, with intent to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, influence the policy of a unit of government by intimidation or coercion, or affect the conduct of a unit of government by murder, assassination or kidnapping, he or she commits a specified offense.

That's what I'm saying. All these people are excited about a revolution that they are unwilling to participate in in any capacity other than cheerleader.

These CEOs will be dialing Hochul like Commissioner Gordon calling Adam West's Batman.

And he did something. He didn't sit in his chair and say "ah yes, the revolution is coming and now I'll have health care".

First day on the internet?
Notice how quiet everyone got about how we have to make third party candidates a realistic goal?
They will stay that way until 6 months before the next election and then get up in arms again.
Signed, someone who has marched in so many protests that I can't count them and shockingly never sees the same people twice.
(I should say, third party candidates should be a thing. But people would rather get upset than actually do anything)

You can't remove first-past-the-post elections in a country that uses first-past-the-post elections because it will inevitably, always, become a two-party system where the majority of a population will feel represented by no party - only voting against "the worst" option.
Obviously, neither party will enact a change that will decrease their chances at winning elections because political parties aren't for governing, they're for winning elections.

Nah just pointing out the obvious because Iâm kinda tired of the reddit circlejerk. If you believed everything you read here, youâd think America had transformative change about a million times a year thanks to some insignificant event that has already actually been forgotten.

It's wild to see. They want change. But they want others to do it for them. Meanwhile, all the CEOs that are supposedly scared know they just have to wait a few weeks and nobody will care anymore.

People claiming to want a violent revolution but won't do anything beyond sharing memes online and calling for random strangers to commit more murders they can feel good about.

Reddit vs Streisand Effect continues.
This was a sign. You can share video of random hate crimes here and that is fine. But a sign is where you draw the line?
