    It pretty clear that Trump is America's biggest online bully, and there is a policy against online bullying in the User Agreement, which is grounds for account deletion according to the terms of service:

    We believe in freedom of expression and open dialogue, but that means little as an underlying philosophy if voices are silenced because people are afraid to speak up. In order to ensure that people feel safe expressing diverse opinions and beliefs, we prohibit behavior that crosses the line into abuse, including behavior that harasses, intimidates, or uses fear to silence another user’s voice.

  3. Account terminated for violating terms of service. on Advice To Twitter Worker Who Deactivated Trump's Account: 'Get A Lawyer' (thehill.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I think the worker could pretty easily say that he terminated the account for hate speech, and he would WIN in court. Then the tables would be turned, and Twitter would be forced to justify why it has allowed a hate-speech account to violate its terms of service for such a long, long time ...

  6. Re:NOOOOOOO on Broadcom Explores Buying Qualcomm (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    As Avago is a Taiwanese company, I am certain that if they buy Qualcomm then the $800m fine from the Taiwanese government against Qualcomm will "magically" disappear

    I am pretty sure I know which "Ken" you are talking about (he managed my wife on the Globalstar project, and visited our house many times.) Qualcomm went to hell in about 2012. I got out in 2013. Ken stayed until 2015, and is now touring the country in his personal motor home, and is out sailling this week. However, he is not "worth a couple of million". Qualcomm always treated him poorly, he was employee #30, and it had not promoted him beyond senior staff in over 20 years, despite his loyalty and hard work, like most of the people who pulled more than their weight, Qualcomm shits on those people and gave all the bonuses to the suits with ties who are "In the club".
