Honestly it's nice to see the government doing things like prosecute corporations for violating people's rights.
Are these companies run by Democrats or something?

Probably started under Lina Khan and then used as an extortion by the current pedo regime. When they refused to give out bribes and public fellatio, they filed the complaint. Probably end up being a drop in the bucket of a fine, we don't actually hold corporations accountable in this country.
Didn’t grease enough palms.
Except the government is doing the exact same thing and worse to violate people's rights.
Nice link here as just one example plus the whole forcing age verification in everything, the list goes on.
Maybe someone can use these as precedent to go after that app. But that app needs to be addressed quickly, because from what I understand, the app is mainly targeting the people who are required to use it. Journalists.
If the app disappears from public app stores and is required to be sideloaded, you’ll know they are trying to keep it from people who will take it apart like this guy did.
I could swear I read this exact comment on another thread about the recent Whitehouse app.
That link I posted is about the Whitehouse app and all of the government apps, so maybe they were commenting on it when it was posted yesterday.
Ha! Missed that I suppose.
