Synopsis:

A Virus, A Fungus, Microsoft and SCOTUS

We were glad that on Monday the Middle Third of 2023, will start! We talked about Microsoft surreptitiously forcing a change on our computers that messed up the posting of the previous radio program. We talked about Leon Skum's penis-envy-rocket blasting dirt and big chunks of concrete on a small town. We talked about the Supreme Court punting regarding the Mifepristone rulings of lower courts. We noted that lying Representative George Santos is now running for reelection, we wondered if it was another scam.

Search engines help us to find things on the World Wide Web. Most search engines exist not to help you find things but to allow the companies that provide the search service to data mine your searches and then sell your search history to clients so they can spam you. An alternative to getting your privacy compromised is to use the DuckDuckGo search engine.
If you'd like to keep your browsing history private you can get yourself the Tor Browser. Using the DuckDuckGo search engine is automatic with the Tor Browser, and by accessing the DuckDuckGo search engine from the Tor Browser you are pretty much guaranteed that no one can trace searches back to you.
