You should know: George Michael was a fierce, fierce advocate for gay rights. His 1998 outing is a perfect capsule of what gay men have had to endure

Michael began his career as the singer for Wham!, along with former schoolmate Andrew Ridgeley, in the early 1980s. The group had hits with “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,” “Careless Whisper,” and the enduring “Last Christmas.” And throughout his career, he’s always been unfailingly sex positive – before it was cool.

Getting deplatformed from Apple. “Your account has been permanently disabled. There is nothing else you can do, there is no escalation path.”

Luke Curtis, the IT manager for Quartz, recently bought an iTunes gift card from a “popular discount website” and loaded into into his iTunes account. A few days later he received a message from Apple that read “You cannot login because your account has been locked.” He called Apple’s customer service and was told that the card he’d used had been stolen but that they understood that Luke was the victim, not the perpetrator, and that his account would be reactivated in 24 hours. After 24 hours had elapsed and Luke was still locked out he called back. This time, the customer service rep he was connected to was a less friendly. He told Luke, “Your account has been permanently disabled. There is nothing else you can do, there is no escalation path.” When Luke asked why, the agent said only, “See the terms and conditions.”

It turned out that getting locked out of his Apple account made all of Luke’s Apple hardware almost useless. From his article on Quartz:

…

After a lot of time and trouble (and an email to Tim Cook) Luke got his account back. He says he has invested $15k into the Apple ecosystem over the years with the assumption that he would be treated fairly for loyalty. “This whole ordeal made me wonder if I want to continue using Apple products,” he wrote. “The more I consider it, the more I realize it’s not just a question of choosing one product over another. The truth is that Google or Microsoft (or Nintendo, or Samsung, or Sony, the list goes on) could just as easily cut off a customer for no stated purpose and without recourse.”

Corporations control access to so much we take for granted in our lives, we need regulation that protects consumers from bullshit like this. In America, (for now at least) we have rights guaranteed to us by our Constitution, and there are limits to government power. It is not a coincidence that authoritarians want to limit or eliminate regulations that give consumers the same level of protections as a corporate customer that we enjoy as American citizens. It is not by accident that right wingers want to privatize everything. The cruelty is the point.

The Trump administration says it can’t reunite missing migrant children with their families; instead, many of the children are being funneled through Christian adoption trafficking mills like the DeVos connected Bethany Christian Services.

A man wearing a guard uniform swerved a black pickup truck into a group of about 30 protesters from the Jewish activist group Never Again Action who were demonstrating in front of a Rhode Island prison that cooperates with Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Wednesday night. Video of the encounter in front of the Wyatt Detention Center near Pawtucket shows the driver of the truck honking his horn and stopping before quickly accelerating toward the group. He then walked into the facility. A short time later, a second guard pepper-sprayed the protesters. “It was terrifying because we didn’t know what exactly his intention was,” Amy Anthony, a spokesperson for Never Again Action, told The Washington Post. “It certainly appeared he was trying to hit us.” The demonstrators included children and at least one person in a wheelchair. “If this is the way this correctional officer is behaving in public when people are recording, it’s not hard to imagine the behavior is much worse behind the walls in the facility where no one can see what is happening,” Anthony said.
