Will post it and announce 21:20 <~jokeefe> Sorry, Joe. I never head back from the ACLU gentleman you mentioned 21:21 < Joe> I figured. It's ok. Sorry my contact didn't work out. 21:21 < Joe> I am sure that they are busy at the moment. 21:22 <~jokeefe> Perhaps we can have them on Pirate News 21:23 < Joe> Sounds like a good idea. Who is the last speaker? 21:23 <~jokeefe> BTW: Micky offered a relaxing gathering place outside Boston should we want to have an event there. Will send details in email 21:23 <~jokeefe> Micky from Agaric (https://agaric.coop/) 21:24 < Joe> We also have a small spot in Lowell too!!! 21:24 <~jokeefe> They are a software development cooperative 21:24 <~jokeefe> Thanks, Joe 21:26 <~jokeefe> Pirate News on Sunday? What should we talk about? 21:27 < Joe> Yes, there are a few topics that are hot atm. 21:28 < Joe> Gun ban stuff is big in the court system atm, esp in CA 21:28 < srevilak> Hurricane Ian? 21:28 < Joe> 500 year storm is a good one too, I have family friends we have not been able to contact. 21:29 <~jokeefe> Hope they are ok. 21:29 <~jokeefe> Ukraine is heating up and then there is this https://www.techdirt.com/2022/09/29/that-time-the-former-white-house-photographer-was-threatened-by-a-copyright-troll-over-his-own-public-domain-photo/ 21:30 < Joe> That is the elephant in the room. WW3 21:32 <~jokeefe> I believe the US military has been amassing more data on people gathered by companies 21:32 < Joe> How likely will it be? We did give a solid response(US) to them (Russia). Plus it really depends on how it goes down, there are a lot of moving technical aspects to this that makes it hard to give a predictable answer. 21:33 < Joe> It would be an easy one to talk about for hours. 21:33 < Joe> I' 21:33 < Joe> I'm not sure we really want our focus on it. 21:34 <~jokeefe> There is much else to discover. Could briefly talk about the sham elections 21:35 <~jokeefe> There is this one too https://www.techdirt.com/2022/09/26/san-francisco-legislators-approve-bill-giving-cops-live-on-demand-access-to-private-security-cameras/ 21:36 <~jokeefe> We can sort it out Sunday. Anything else you want to discuss? 21:36 < srevilak> nothing here 21:36 < Joe> I'm content with all the content. 21:37 <~jokeefe> BTW: here is the US military spying story: https://www.vice.com/en/article/y3pnkw/us-military-bought-mass-monitoring-augury-team-cymru-browsing-email-data?utm_source=motherboard_twitter 21:37 <~jokeefe> Shall we adjourn, then? 21:38 < srevilak> sounds good 21:38 < srevilak> will post transcript 21:38 < Joe> Aye
