    World Health Organization chief backs Neil Young over Covid misinformation row with Spotify.
    The Guardian (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 74% • 4 min read

    Spotify has begun removing Neil Young’s music from its platform after an ultimatum issued by the star earlier this week to the company. Referring to controversial podcasts by Joe Rogan hosted by Spotify, Young said: “They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.”
    ...
    In the past few weeks, hundreds of scientists and medical experts have signed an open letter to Spotify, saying that Rogan had “repeatedly spread misleading and false claims on his podcast, provoking distrust in science and medicine” and had “spread a number of unsubstantiated conspiracy theories.”
    ...
    [Spotify] said it had “detailed content policies in place and we’ve removed over 20,000 podcast episodes relating to Covid-19 since the start of the pandemic.” Rogan signed a $100m deal in 2020 giving Spotify exclusive rights to his show, which features conversations with guests on a range of issues. It is Spotify’s most popular podcast and one of the biggest in the world.

Should gun owners have to carry liability insurance?

581 votes, 68 comments

Context: San Jose, CA, becomes first city in U.S. to require gun owners to acquire liability insurance.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

No - Liability insurance is to cover injuries caused by you to another person or property in car accidents or possibly injuries on your property. When you shoot someone, you're going to go to court and face jail time and have to pay for another person's medical bills. Why would we shift punishment off of the shooter and onto an insurance company? Also, for this to be a fair law, every police officer will need to have the insurance as well, greatly increasing policing costs that the city may not be able to afford. [...] This also does not address the fact that there are probably many illegal gun owners and criminal gun owners who can't be forced to obey this law with unregistered guns.


Yes - 90% of gun owners are fine with treating a gun like treating a car: licenses, insurance, safety. Politically, quie...



Unsure - It doesn't sound like that bad of an idea, given that guns are designed for the purpose of killing or maiming. We're required t...
