<< Labor lawyers said a U.S. Supreme Court decision against the Teamsters could open unions up to lawsuits by employers seeking to recoup costs associated with strikes. That, in turn, would make workers more hesitant to go on strike to improve pay and working conditions, thereby weakening unions’ most powerful weapon: the ability to withhold labor. >>

Please talk to your (extended) family about refund/cancellation scams.

They start with an email saying something like "Your Geek Squad/Norton/McAfee subscription is renewing", with instructions to call a phone number to "cancel" or "refund" the amount.

After calling, they will be told to install tool that gives the scammer complete control of the computer. Then they will be asked to buy gift cards to give to the scammer.

I'm currently running a recovery operation because a family friend fell for this scam, and then took their laptop to Microcenter for "virus removal", which meant a reinstall of Windows over their personal data.

It's always so much easier if they don't fall for it in the first place. Be sure those in your life know: They can call/text you with questions if they're ever unsure.

I'm glad that Star Wars is getting into using boolean logic for their show titles.
