🚨 UK’s Online Safety Act just came into effect, promising a “safer” internet. It’s a lie. This law threatens YOUR privacy, free speech, and democracy and paves the way for a surveilled, censored web. Want to know how bad it gets? 🧵

Please stop falling for pyramid schemes & other MLMs. Sadly, this stuff will become more prevalent. Like Amway, the USA itself is now a family-run business with THAT cast of characters pulling the levers... https://t.co/YEYR9b2Q4S

The second Trump administration has been compared to the Mafia, feudal empires, and the petro-states of the Persian Gulf—but an even more relevant analogy may be Nutrilite.

Doing an NCFE Level 2 in "Principles of Cyber Security". It's really quite hard and needs a lot of research to answer the questions... ...and I know some people just want to put in the minimum effort to get a pass, but what's the point if you don't actually learn anything?

In 2007 I saw Amway in the UK more or less collapse in on itself after some serious shot went down. There's quite an interesting tale if you're interested in watching/reading/listening? https://t.co/DcogtlIQ5k

18 years ago I was recruited to what is perhaps the most dangerous modern cult freely operating in over 100 countries with protection from the USA's FTC and masquerading as a "business".

It's hard to believe that #Yell aka #hibu are STILL behaving this way. I first encountered them in 2012 and clearly the sales culture has not changed. #HighPressureSales #Sales

"Right message, at the right time, to the right person... and in the right format" A desperate plea written by me to my annoying whistling neighbour. He's a few yards down and I've never actually seen him... but hear him I can.

Great to know that Reddit, Quora, and a 3-year-old Avvo thread are "better" results for this legal query than the American Bar Association 🤦♀️ Makes it even better that the top answer on one of the Reddit threads is from someone with an 18+ profile with some answers so gross I

This new ad type in the Local Pack is disgusting 🤮 1️⃣ I can't believe they are allowing competitors to advertise right on top of your #1 ranking. 2️⃣ They are definitely trying to disguise that this is an ad. NOT COOL, Google. Not cool.

Google just put the “is E-E-A-T a ranking factor?” question to bed in its new SEO guidance. Plus some other goodies 🍿 (Meanwhile I am sitting here bracing for those who lack critical thinking skills to come at me about how E-E-A-T doesn’t matter)
Today we're putting our pencils down and publishing a refreshed SEO Starter Guide, with a better focus on a starter audience. Read more about what changed:

I upgraded #PHP 7.4 to 8.0 on my GoDaddy #cPanel hosted #WordPress website, and all the #emojis were wiped out. Solution is to disable certain #MySQL modules. Thanks to the WP forum user for the tips. Is there any downside to disabling these modules @GoDaddyHelp ? All seems OK
