LMAO. You should get your own news agency and stop trying to steal outs. No news for you. Maybe if you had awesome government sponsored media like the US you'd be able to see the news.

:(
what does that even mean....urgh!

It means that your taxes for this company were not assigned to this particular use of this site and your taxes are for our benefit, not yours.

Funny that it is commercially funded.... but blocked from you. Um... so they are intentionally keeping their commercial side from making money so screwing you with taxes AND with withholding content. Tax fail.

Awesome and government sponsored are never 2 things I would put together for a news agency.
The article felt a bit limp personally. Not sure what value was gained by reading it. Feels like 2 grumpy people moaning about a place.

Never been to the states but SV lost the illusion of a bunch of cool flip flop wearing surfer dudes when they all started suing each other a few years ago.
Now they just look like a few big corporates and lots of unicorn startups who are going to change the world.
