I am done with X. I will not feed a platform that glorifies Nazi ideology, amplifies antisemitism, and turbocharges the dissemination of disinformation. It’s time for all of us to #eXit.

- Morgan Stanley failed to employ basic data security measures when selling-off old computer devices. Their negligence exposed personal data for hundreds of thousands of their #Connecticut customers.
In addition to a substantial payment, our settlement today forces Morgan Stanley to commit to a series of strong data security measures to ensure these careless errors do not occur again.

Additionally, the increased frequency of antisemitic and anti-Asian rhetoric and violence in recent years means that this may be a particularly dangerous time for such targeted genetic information to be released to the public.

Glad to see @AGWillamTong tackling this important issue. Baseball may be America’s pastime—but that doesn’t mean it should be exempt from American antitrust law.Baseball is big business. There’s no rational reason why #baseball - above any other sport, or any other business - should be insulated from federal and state antitrust enforcement.
