>CA has the highest poverty rates in the country
By what metric? looking at the census data, it appears the poverty rate of California, while not great, is certainly not the worst.

>what about regular pictures? They’re supposed to take candid moments of the real world
I'm not sure that is an accurate representation of photography as a medium, nor has it ever been.

Not exactly. THe ACLU actually does work in the area being discussed [0]. I believe the criticism is that people did not donate for that reason, not that the ACLU doesn't do anything about it; the ACLU does quite a bit.

Not to be obtuse, but wouldn't what is basically an anthropomorphic doughnut be fine in two dimensions? Or do you just mean that that would not likely be the digestive tract of such a thing?

I think putting San Diego in a different group than Los Angeles was also rather odd...
Edit: now that I look at it, I would also question their "Urban Corridor" from Los Angeles to Las Vegas... unless they mean people travel between them easily. That corridor is mostly desert.
This is only somewhat true. At the spa for instance, you very much have an expectation of privacy. Practically speaking it is sort of contextual?
