We have been live for little over a week and we've already got data brokers to stop lookups; had non-consensual porn platforms delisted; any now a privacy change on the NYC subway. We are not fucking around; we wake up every morning to do this.

New from 404 Media: I tracked the precise movements of an NYC subway rider. Saw what specific time they got on and at what station. It became obvious which station was nearest to their home.

This feature is wide open to abuse

Nevada Republicans sent National Archives fake electoral certificates saying Trump won election
We know about at least 5 states that have had Republicans do this, and they had matching document templates, so it was coordinated. It'll be a travesty if nobody goes to prison over this.
