#California’s state agency CalPrivacy is building a new Delete Request and Opt-out Platform (DROP 😂).

Starting Jan 1, 2026, you’ll be able to submit a request through DROP, asking data brokers to delete your data.

Starting Aug 1, 2026, data brokers are required to start regularly processing consumer deletion requests, reducing how many times your data can be bought, sold, and pop-up on sketchy websites. 😎

This is exciting, as it’s a FREE service for California residents, similar to existing, paid services like Optery, Incogni, Privacy Bee, DeleteMe, and EasyOptOuts.

Being that we already have the town of Solvang in California, we hereby officially petition to join Denmark as the western seat of the new Danish Empire.

A large squarish building styled to resemble classic Danish architecture. In the background is a large ornamental windmill that's probably a very cramped office building. A sign in front says "The New Danish Inn Restaurant and Lounge."

📍Tustin, California
🗓️ November 16, 2025
📷 Sony DSC-F828, 56mm, f/8, 1/640th, ISO 64

#photography #california #palm #palmtree #cloud #Nature #plant #plants #vintagecamera #vintagedigital #vintagedigitalcamera

The image depicts two tall palm trees with slender trunks rising against a clear blue sky with a single white cloud. The trees are topped with green, fan-shaped leaves that radiate from the trunks. The leaves are highlighted by sunlight, creating a vivid contrast against the deep blue background. The cloud appears fluffy and white, partially surrounding the upper leaves, adding a sense of depth and texture.

Hey #California #Oregon #WashingtonState #Minnesota #NewYork #Vermont #Massachusetts #RhodeIsland #Maine and #Connecticut We could form a contiguous nation with Canada. Think of it. Universal Health Care. Cheaper education. Higher alcohol content beer. Real maple syrup. No MAGAs.

Instead of 51st state, let’s start thinking 11th-20th Provinces!

"3 mos ago 325,000 Serbians took Belgrade (some estimates had many more). That’s 5% of the pop taking on Serbian Pres Vučić's autocracy

If we show up similarly to protest our rubber-chicken #fascist, that's 17MM. How about 15MM of us do this? 𝐅𝐈𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐄𝐍"

See some of the people who biked to Window on the Bay Park, Monterey on June 14, 2025, to exercise their legal right to assemble—one of the rights established by the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America. https://bikemonterey.org/people-who-biked-to-window-on-the-bay-monterey-on-flag-day-2025.html

A man on a bicycle has paused to display two signs, which read: “Voice of America will not be silenced” and “Radical by basic decency.” Many U.S. flag-bearers are to his left, including one holding an upside-down flag, the official signal for distress.

While #mozilla may have backed off from their over-broad rights grant for information posted via #firefox the underlying rationale for why the change is happening now continues to be unclear.

Many seem to think that this has to do with #california #ccpa - as I was exploring that, I took a deeper dive into Mozilla's new #privacy policy.

My takeaway?

It appears that Mozilla may have been sharing more data with Mozilla's ad partners than you expected: https://www.quippd.com/social/posts/2025/03/02/who-else-is-surprised-that-mozilla-uses-technical-and-interaction-data-for-advertising-purposes-on-the-new-tab-page.html

Photo of some Japanese foods on an outdoor concrete table at a park during noon. From left to right, the foods shown are strawberry-flavored Japanese matcha green tea from matcha LOVE, salmon and tuna nigirizushi, cherry blossom–themed lima bean mochigashi from Fugetsu-Do, and cherry blossom matcha cream–covered biscuit sticks from Pocky. Things are heavy here, but I took a moment to share lunch with some of my beloved's favorite foods and lasting memories. Two years gone, but love never leaves.

Special thanks to the following extraordinary people. And BTW, at least 23% of them are on Mastodon—including @Kleen, @ai6yr, @mtheriaultsf https://bikemonterey.org/bike-buzz-summer-2025-news-from-bicycling-monterey.html#1st2025Donors
