Kennedy also accused several agencies under the Department of Health and Human Services — including the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services — of being “sock puppets” for the pharmaceutical industry.

Yes it's remarkable how unchecked influence can be seen as corruption. Weird that it's never happened before, or to any other part of this administration.

Their solution: sock puppets that they control directly.

T_mobile doesn't force its users to get their credit card, or force them to use it, or force them to enlist their friends and family to get one.

If Big Tech has their way, all of these things and Andy Rooney will be yours in less than 60 minutes.

a) yes

b) what I find really concerning is that they may have already figured out how to change people's behaviour: what they think is funny, what they think is appropriate to say/do, where they want to travel to (if at all), how they feel about certain celebrities they like or dislike, what is believable or not believable, how they feel about certain politicians, who to vote for. Some people are probably more easy to sway on certain topics than others are. It's not a stretch to guess that they probably already know various paths to make individuals into something they currently are not.
