The Arrogance of Mark Zuckerberg
Meta has kept secret a disturbing flaw in its systems by which cybercriminals exploit Instagram accounts for illegal activities, including running up charges on stolen credit cards and selling nonexistent products. The criminals exploit a weakness in Meta security by creating and linking fraudulent Instagram accounts to randomly selected legitimate Facebook profiles. This enables the hackers to mostly bypass Meta’s commerce eligibility criteria, the supposed safeguard before verifying an account for sales activities. The hackers then abuse their new accounts until Meta detects the fraud and shuts them down. However, by that time, the legitimate Facebook pr...

Pseudonyms for Safety
Everybody gives lip service to free speech. Until it runs counter to what they believe. It is not easy nowadays to have a reasonable discussion about topics such as gender ideology or the effect of the T on LGB without some zealots making life miserable for those with whom they disagree. Debate often quickly devolves into a verbal food fight. No wonder so many of the smartest people I know stay away from these topics as if they are social third rails. That is especially true of my progressive friends. They have discovered that it is not...

Every time I’ve ever had to think about queer theory, it’s been in response to something ugly and downright crazy-making: like watching Democrats fight to eradicate competitive sports for women;or hearing anyone argue for rapists in women’s prisons;knowing doctors are performing “Frankenstein” experiments on healthy bodies because patients are asking for them, while teachers and counselors are spreading unbelievably d...

Orwell's Latest Doublethink
California has reaffirmed that convicted male sex predators who have declared themselves to be women can serve their sentences in all-female prisons. The state says it is following federal law by “expressly prohibit[ing] housing decisions based solely on an incarcerated person’s external genitalia.” Mishandling this fundamental common sense issue was a key factor in Nicola Sturgeon’s resignation last year. (Check my December 2022 article, “Does Scotland’s New Gender Law Put Women at Risk.”) California is pushing the progressive gender boundaries with the legislation, named by its proponents as The Transgender Respect, Agency and Dignity Ac...

The fentanyl epidemic, however, might not have existed if the groundwork had not been set with Purdue Pharma’s blockbuster opioid painkiller, OxyContin, and the lethal opioid crisis it triggered.

Sensitivity Language Police Strike Again
There was an outcry recently over hundreds of changes made to Roald Dahl’s books and Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels, all intended to make them “inclusive and accessible” through today’s progressive lens on issues such as gender, race, misogyny, weight, mental health, and violence. Author Salmon Rushdie condemned the publishers then for their “absurd censorship.” In a Substack I wrote last month about the Dahl alterations, “’Ugly’ and ‘Fat’ No Longer,” I concluded, “Words matter. The problem is that the Dahl sensitivity censorship sets a template for other hugely successful author franchises. Readers should know that the...

The Germans hid their haul in four oversized munitions boxes they buried on the outskirts of the small town of Ommen.

Was I duped by Big Pharma? Early in my career I was told “You and your colleagues are undertreating pain.” When I served as Vice Chair of on the California Medical Association Council on Legislation, we passed laws that mandated pain education for doctors and eliminated specialized prescription pads for potent opioids.
