Comrade, you misunderstand - this is Soviet America! You are presumed guilty, and must prove your innocence in a kangaroo kourt. (Hint: you can't. You will be made to confess.)
New York already has a quite a few - thankfully not all of them, yet - cops who dress like Darth Vader who just returned from Afghanistan. Jackboots included.
Well, I mean, it is pretty much literally a cover up. The frankenfood manufacturers DON'T WANT THE PUBLIC TO KNOW what's in their food.
Yeah yeah yeah - "but muh Science(tm) says it's the best thing ever!!1!!!" Sorry, we've heard this before. It's always a lie. The average Joe isn't fooled anymore.
Don't even bother with the fight for labeling. Let's just ban this poison NOW, and pack its makers off to the Gulag.
I want information - all of it - to be free & open.
But I don't think science has very much interesting to say about the direction of public policy. Historical attempts to implement "scientific government" - like Stalin's agriculture policies, or for a less extreme example, "urban renewal" planning in 1960s America - have typically failed.
"I wonder what kind of regulations will come about in the future to deal with this."
Perhaps the Demopublicans will make it illegal to criticize HFT? After all, only a racist child-molesting terrorist climate-change-denier would ever want to criticize our masters on Wall Street.
Really? I'm gonna bet that would be a complete waste of life. If you get a response at all it's going to be a mix of dissembling and "fuck you, prole, you have no rights" boilerplate.
The way you say it is rude and mocking. (It's common for the lumpen to deride the working class for their very willingness to work.) Nevertheless there's some truth to the economic proposition you ridicule.
Has this Ezra Klein bootlicking clown ever actually been to Malaysia?
Forget the dollars to ringgits exchange rate sophistry - look at standard of living. Workers in Kuala Lumpur are NOT worse off than workers in Detroit.
It won't be a revolution in the old style. It will be a creeping communism, a slow but inexorable change in social structure wrought by changes in the productive relationship of capital to labor. There was never a unified "capitalist revolution", but nonetheless capitalism completely supplanted feudalism. FOSS is the harbinger of the new productivity. Far from a complete and stable system - merely a glimpse of the future.

"try to prove it illegal in court"

When I was a kid we had a saying, used when people disagreed with each other: "do what you want, it's a free country."
Nowadays if someone says "it's a free country", people just wince and laugh nervously.
The terrorists won. And keep winning more & more with each new form of automated tyranny.
We have become the Soviet Union.

I think the same is true in most American cities?
This, my brothers, is how Hillary Clinton managed to "win" the popular vote.
Don't feed the trolls.
Hacker sez: "Attention all connected cars - turn hard left and accelerate to maximum now!"
Hilarity ensues.

Yum yum yummy, poisonous frankenfoods in my tummy!
Read the Dockerfile for any FOSS images you deploy. They're blessedly simple compared with many other deployment manifest formats.
Huh?

Gotta get that transaction time down and that transaction rate up, if we want the financial markets to become properly sentient.

Psychology is medical science the same way civil engineering is fine art.
San Francisco is by far the most racist city in America. It's almost as racist as Europe.
Permanent renters == overpaid?
Suuuuuuure. I bet you resent longshoremen and steelworkers too? Keep up the infighting, the oligarchy loves it.
There's no work in those places, my brother.
Large swaths of the United States have been in a state of economic collapse for several decades.
But shhhhhhh, it's super politically-incorrect to say that.. and probably illegal to say it on TV.

What we need us more solidarity. 99% of us are all on the same side.

Bullshit. OWS was forcibly suppressed by coordinated nationwide police action. I was there.

Comrade Stalin really loved science and scientific government. No, he really did - read the history.
Corollary 1: Stalin wasn't a cartoonish monster, even tho his agricultural policies lead to the premature death of millions.
Corollary 2: Science has fucking zero answers to the hard questions of government.
The term you're looking for is "California Apartheid".
It predates President Trump (PBUH) by many, many decades.
