@thomasfuchs is the primary time sink going to be patching vibe code while nation state attackers leverage shitty vibe code attacks, and the FBI and FCC do nothing to help?
All while enduring a #CapitalStrike on workers and winging about not having enough skilled workers, demanding wildly fluctuating self paid training requirements, abusing visa workers, attacking the US populace over immigration, secretly outsourcing

#CorporationsAreNotPersons, and so if a corporation's actions are in conflict with the interests of real people, the corporation should lose. Every time.

The #CapitalStrike currently being enacted by the gas industry in #Australia is pure petulance at *any* limit on outrageous, planet-wrecking profits from fossil fuels.

They have no entitlement to this. This is an immoral, unconscionable action. End it, forcibly, now.

“The gas industry is still behaving like a bunch of bullies and ... withholding supply”. This is a capital strike, holding us to ransom. It must be broken. Declare emergency. Set up a commission like ABCC. No right to silence. Raid offices. Audit them. Gaol executives. Expropriate licenses.
If this treatment is good enough for the workers, then these bastard gas companies can cop it too, and any other striking capital.
