Ethics.

Decades of deregulation. More to come.

What specific regulation would have prevented this? Or is this just a knee jerk response against "deregulation"?

the one simple one I can think of would be to specifically make depositor acknowledge “hey this is not FDIC ensured, do you want to proceed?”

probably still some percentage of people would fall for it and continue with the creation of an account but at least then this discussion here would be “stupid is as stupid does.”

One could make a regulation that account data cannot be lumped.

EDIT: It's the OC Foundation, one of the US-based fiscal hosts, that is dissolving.

OC as a whole remains active, as do other fiscal hosts like the Open Source Collective (US) and OC Europe.

Thanks for posting this! I'm the admin of an OCF-hosted Collective, but I didn't receive that email yet.

Some info seems to be appearing here: https://docs.opencollective.foundation, which is currently titled "Dissolution FAQ".

Mali's a Daesh hotbed.

Mali's welcomed Russian troops, including Wagner's, in the wake of the French pulling out.

"[The Russian involvement in Mali] signals a major expansion of Russia's military interests in Africa and a strategic setback for the West. The deployment of Russian military contractors signals a profound break with France and the West."
