All 55 UEFA nations have unanimously agreed to boycott FIFA competitions if plans to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors move forward. European football is drawing a line in the sand: the World Cup belongs to the players and fans.

NEW: After a 404 Media report about ISBNdb sourcing printed books for AI companies to train on because they don't contain AI slop, the company has removed its webpages about training AI citing backlash and says it was just a "test of market interest."

Når de (ikke spesielt ) langt til høyre sier at venstresiden ikke «tar et oppgjør» med islamismen er det viktig å huske at det de mener er at venstresiden ikke vil stoppe innvandringen og/eller diskriminere alle muslimer

Hvorvidt det er ulovlig er forresten underordnet. Personvern skal være en grunnleggende rettighet, ikke en handelsvare. Dersom det er noe tvil om hvorvidt dette er ulovlig bør departementet jobbe på spreng for å oppdatere regelverket, ikke sponse det.
