Pornhub Was Missing In Senate Tech Grilling

Pornhub Was Missing In Senate Tech Grilling — Pornhub blocked Texas residents, March 14, after the state passed a law requiring age verification to access pornographic material.

Texas joins Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, Utah and Virginia in requiring age verification.

The Senate Judiciary Committee led by Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) held a hearing Jan. 31 to grill social media CEOs about the impact their corporations were having on kids.

In the hot seat were Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, X (formerly Twitter) CEO Linda Yaccarino, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew, Snap CEO Evan Spiegel, and Discord CEO Jason Citron.

Wonder why the Pornhub boss wasn’t called. It seems strange officials would be more concerned by the young reading X or Facebook, than having easy access to Pornhub.

It’s obviously easy to stop children from accessing it, and unlike the other social media companies it only serves one purpose.

For what it’s worth, a rumor that we think has merit is that Pornhub is a pretty ugly honey trap and that one’s identity is not a secret to those who run it.

Philly Vid Goes Viral On Twitter

Philly Vid Goes Viral On Twitter — There is a video going around the globe with 6.5 million Twitter views and comments from several languages and alphabets.

It depicts a filthy street filled with wretched, filthy people in various degrees of obliviousness.

“It reminds me of zombie movies and thrillers,” says Jesse012215

“A woman holding a syringe like holding a cigarette and laughing,” says @hidetakke

“It’s strange because the clothes and shoes are too beautiful,” says @kartstanbrody1

Where is this strange and horrid place they wonder.

They guess Russia. They guess Tokyo.

But no, it’s not those places. It’s Kensington Avenue just down the road in Philly.

Congratulations Jim Kenney and Larry Krasner and Pennsylvania Democrats. Your accomplishments are known world wide.

Twitter Timeout For Concern About Christie

Twitter Timeout For Concern About Christie — Noted commentator Ann Coulter gave cruel and dangerous advice to Chris Christie so we gently chastised her and offered constructive and caring suggestions to the former New Jersey governor.

What did our good deed get us? A 12-hour time out from Twitter.

Oh, the humanity.

Shout Out To PatriotOnline

Shout Out To PatriotOnline — Elon has taken Twitter and fired the bullies. The guy formerly known as Kanye West is buying Parler. Donald Trump’s TruthSocial is soaring and Gab is maturing.

October 2022 is a good month for free speech.

We’d like to give a shout out to Greg Stenstrom’s social media site Patriot.Online.

It’s interesting, intelligent, easy to use and has a strong Philadelphia-region flavor.

Meanwhile, the place formerly known as Facebook, is collapsing. Being a censorious, hypocritical wannabe tyrant really doesn’t pay in the end, does it Kommissar?

And we’ll take our share of the credit.

Delco Voting On CrowdStrike Pact

Delco Voting On CrowdStrike Pact — Delaware County Council (Pa.) is scheduled to vote tonight, May 18, on a three-year professional services agreement with CrowdStrike for Falcon Complete End Point Protection Software.

Cost will be $33,830 per year.

CrowdStrike is the scandal-plagued cyber security firm that “investigated” the hacking of the Democratic National Committee’s computers in 2016; claimed it was the Russians and then kept the FBI from seeing the machines for itself.

You would think the Delco Republicans would express a tad bit of concern.

The meeting is 6 p.m. in the Council Public Meeting Room on the 1st Floor of the Government Center Building, 201 W. Front St., Media, PA.

FrogFind Search Engine Strips Garbage From Websites

FrogFind Search Engine Strips Garbage From Websites — The sagacious Bryan Lunduke has revealed a website that lets users of old operating systems browse the world wide web like it was 1999.

This is a good thing. Annoying ads disappear.

As does a lot of formatting.

Depending on the ad-annoyance factor that could be a worthwhile tradeoff.

Paywalls seem to disappear too but none of our readers would stoop to use it for such a nefarious reason.

And of course users of new machines can use it too.

The site is FrogFind.com and here is the link.

Truth Social Logjam Breaks

Truth Social Logjam Breaks — The logjam broke this morning (April 23) and the hundreds of thousands queued since February to join Truth Social are now on board, including us.

If you’re on the app you can find us @BillLawrenceOnline. Appears direct links aren’t available yet. The app is still only available for the iPhone.

Truth Social is easy to use and seems like it will be a winner.

Elon might want to rethink his tender to Twitter.

If you remain on Twitter and want to check if you shadow-banned, a particularly craven means of attacking dissent, use this tool.

Why We Can’t Hate DuckDuckGo Too Much

Why We Can’t Hate DuckDuckGo Too Much — While Chesco’s DuckDuckGo is getting a lot of hate for its flirtation with wokism, we can’t bring ourselves to join in, at least too much.

Here are yesterday’s (April 17) referrals from search engines to this site.

Why We Can't Hate DuckDuckGo Too Much

The Duck is between a 10th and a 50th the size of Google yet it got us 12 times the finds as the corrupting crawler from California.

Just the same, we have switched to Brave. We’ve long used the browser but we are now using the search engine as well and we like it.

By the way, Ecosia.com, Qwant.com, Dogpile and AOL search engines combined got us more searches than Google.

Google does not give you what you look for but gives you what it wants. Avoid it at all costs.
