An interesting perspective on big tech spying.
“The West has declared war on TikTok. US, EU, Canada have banned it for govt staff. UK may follow.They say TikTok steals user data.They're right, it does & should be banned. But what about Silicon Valley-based social media giants. Do they not steal data? Or are they the good thieves?” ~ Palki Sharma, one of India’s leading journalists, Tue. Feb 28th, 2023.

Happy Friday Patriots! 🇺🇸
Hope everyone is hanging in there. I was thinking about the highs and the lows of this journey, when that famous phrase popped in my head…
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…”
I’m not big into English literature (lol) so I went to look up the whole quote. Crazy how the quote applies to our journey.
At times we feel hopeless.
At times we feel hopeful.
But we keep pushing forward until we win,
And win we will.
Enjoy the weekend!
