@cdarwin@c.imA bona fide financial crisis has not broken out since the US housing meltdown of 2007.
Even the Covid pandemic and subsequent upsurge in inflation didn’t lead to financial upheaval.
The jitters produced by the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank in 2023 were soon forgotten.
Given this stability, it might take some effort to convince financial markets that another big one is around the corner.
But it is.
Financial markets and their regulating governments may believe …

@cdarwin@c.imA U.S. bankruptcy judge on Tuesday approved a $46.75 million settlement for victims of a 2023 data breach
at the genetic testing company 23andMe,
which exposed genetic and other personal information of an estimated 6.9 million customers.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Brian Walsh in St. Louis said the settlement was fair and equitable, and in the best interest of a trust overseen by the company's bankruptcy administrator.

@cdarwin@c.imThis week, the Roberts Court made clear that when it comes to drawing congressional districts,
Black voters have no rights that anyone is bound to respect.
For years, Alabama, where a quarter of the population is Black, had defied federal court orders,
including one reaffirmed by the Supreme Court itself in 2023,
to create a second majority- or plurality-Black congressional district.
Alabama’s reasoning for not doing so was simple:
