Tell me you don't understand the seriousness of what Trump is doing in one policy change.

Just the worst people you could ever put in government. Vote for the society you want should the worst happen to you or your loved ones, not the best case scenario where you have the extreme misfortune of ending up in the highest tax bracket.

Do bots come with built in “we’re made, cheese it!” protocol?

[Harry Lime]

I always thought that running that many effective bots, and being able to use the information or spam a thread, took at least the manpower and resources of a Russia or a China. I never considered Cochrane sending bots to cyberwarfare Airdrie.

So are the Alberta bots paid for and run by Alberta, or is somebodies Russian/US/China buddy doing some dirty work, here?

[Fuzz]

Could be AI bots, but I don't know why they'd need so many workers in one thread. That's the baffling bit, why have so many running? Should be a one and done, unless a different worker hits each page in the thread. 1366 guests, but some would be legit, and 1231 pages. Maybe that's what's happening. I've heard AI bot traffic is getting pretty massive.

Automated bot traffic surpassed human-generated traffic for the first time in a decade, constituting 51% of all web traffic in 2024. This shift is largely attributed to the rise of AI and Large Language Models (LLMs), which have simplified the creation and scaling of bots for malicious purposes. As AI tools become more accessible, cyber criminals are increasingly leveraging these technologies to create and deploy malicious bots which now account for 37% of all internet traffic – a significant increase from 32% in 2023. This is the sixth consecutive year of growth in bad bot activity, posing security challenges for organizations striving to safeguard their digital assets.

Review after Alberta withholds renewable energy survey results

https://edmontonjournal.com/news/loc...survey-privacy

Postmedia requested the results of the survey and received over 300 pages of entirely redacted records in return. The province's information and privacy commissioner is reviewing those government responses.

The UCP must not have liked the results, of course, so just don't acknowledge the opinions of Albertans. Just one thing after another with the most corrupt and insufferable government in Canadian history.

[Fuzz]

I'd like them to have to stand in front of a judge or something and argue why the anonymous opinions of Albertans given on future policy proposals collected with taxpayer dollars are protected in a way only the government can release them, and yet they decide not to. Justify it. Publicly.
