There was a different commenter, possibly in a different HN thread, who was explaining that as an Egyptian resident he thought the government was blocking things like Whatsapp and Signal to protect one of the non government employers in Egypt, the telecommunications industry, which makes money from charging for phone calls and sms messages.

If you're talking about the Billy Bush tape, Trump released a video statement claiming to not be a perfect person, and apologized for his behavior.

Soon after the release of the video statement, Trump qualified the apology with the "it was locker room talk, Bill Clinton has done way worse on a golf course, I apologize if anyone was offended."

Too bad he didn't just stick with his original video statement!

I suppose it could all be a Soviet psyop, but to me it's convincing.

The FBI estimates about 3,000 people go missing, permanently, in the US every year. People get reported missing all of the time, but they are found quickly.

Humans sort it later in the process. The elderly are just sorting it a little earlier.

I follow Matt Taibbi's work, he had nothing to do with the false rape story reporting.
