COVIDCATION

MLE Student The holidays 🤸‍♂️ are upon us but freedom of movement is still encumbered 😐. WHAT WILL YOU DO?  - I'm open to suggestions 💡 Last night, as widely expected, Hong Kongers 🥢 defied the ban on the annual Tiananmen vigil to mark the anniversary of the massacre.  In more frivolous news, the Biebers 🗽 are also busy threatening to sue a TikTok plastic surgeon for defamation & breach of copyright.  In SG, more than 110,000 peeps (and counting) have petitioned ✍ against receiving 2020 NDP Fun Packs. The Gov is pressing ahead amid The Oppo queries on Reach's public consultation. Hang on to your seats - this might be interesting GE. If you want to consult on CA3, cultivating chilli padi 🌶 or motorcycle maintenance 🏍  - PM 💬 me in advance to book me on Tuesdays & Thursdays -  P.s. I don't do queries on baking. Also remember ☝ to do the HBL Survey sent by Ms Chong so I get to keep inundating young minds with emails like these. The Zuck just can't catch a break this week. 🚩 Content warning: Re-imagined version of events in smileys The SG Gov to The Zuck: "Geo Block this page!" 😠 The Zuck to the Gov:  "These POFMA orders suck! But ok we'll take it down" 😕. The FB employees to The Zuck: "Take down Trump's Post!" 😡 (virtually walking out) The Zuck: "That disturbs me but ... hey! why are you recording this!" 😮 No wonder people are really mad with the Zuck. Week 10 topic! Lots of POFMA action in the last 2 months - from matters pertaining to COVID-19 to the PM's wife's salary, New Naratif were issued a POFMA correction order on a video about... POFMA. IKR. The Gov maintains people can make up their own minds because video is available. (Yahoo, ST) So discern for yourself ! 🤔 +  The Gov's reasons on Factually +  who has DIO! so far since POFMA came into force - by NUS Comms folks like you Is "Recommended For You" & "Up Next" on YouTube just an innocent algorithm? An ongoing Podcast Series by the NYT called Rabbit Hole takes a closer look. 🚧* Consumer Advice  - Think of your worst nightmare (or maybe mine, where 90s MTV Ad bumpers are played non-stop and in double speed and in stereo) + Ep 1 - insights from a former YouTube employee who left + Ep 4 - YouTube's C.E.O., Susan Wojcicki on how it works + Ep 5 -  the rise of Pewdiepie + how he got linked with the Christchurch shootings
