there is no law against either removing or covering up your car’s plate(s) as long as you’re parked on your own private property.

Not inherently true- most places ban having "unregistered" vehicles on residential areas, and if they can't see a plate when they're looking to cause problems, they're going to claim it's unregistered and make it your problem.

You would be very surprised how many rural areas have barely-working cellular networks that are unreliable and not fast enough for usable data.

These laws are probably more for surveillance than preventing ghost guns.

They are, 100%. Watch Louis Rossman 's video on the New York law (if you can stomach his vlogs for that long) - it's had a shitload of money dumped into lobbying for it by none other than overly controlling industrialist Michael Bloomberg himself. They are trying to crush user ownership of manufacturing right off the bat.

Sure. I subscribe to Watch Duty so I get better data layers for west coast USA wildfires. I also subscribe to spotify because I haven't been able to wean myself off it yet. There are a few select apps that make sense to subscribe to for "premium" benefits. Most aren't, for sure.

Honking, car crash, sirens, yelling all need to go

Poor titling. The restriction is not in place. Thry have only sent it back to the lower federal court to let them determine if it counts as a 4th amendment search before making a decision. The NPR article is significantly better. https://www.npr.org/2026/06/29/nx-s1-5844697/supreme-court-restricts-use-of-geofence-warrants

If this does come back as a 4th amendment search, this might kill Flock and other fixed are surveillance devices in a really fun way. God, I can only hope. (But realistically I know they won't restrict shit)

Its ok though, we had to get rid of popup headlights because "oh no pedestrian safety". But classify fucking everything as a light truck and you can do whatever the fuck you want.

So, this means Microsoft has copies of every single bitlocker key, meaning that a bad actor could obtain them... Thereby making bitlocker less than worthless, it's an active threat.
MS really speedrunning worst possible software timeline
