Just watched #TheGreatHack on #Netflix. What I appreciated about this #documentary on #Facebook and the whole #CambridgeAnalytica scandal, is that it's one of the few #privacy #documentaries to get that protecting personal data isn't just about not seeing personalized ads for stuff you're more likely to want. It's about protecting ourselves from mass psychological manipulation and behavior modification techniques. These are techniques that actually work *best* when people believe they don't.

@greg
meet the Siberian flying squirrel, quite possibly the most comically adorable mammal to exist.
they're the only species of flying squirrel found in Europe, and they range across the continent from the Pacific coast to the Baltic sea.
their diet is mostly herbivorous--seeds, nuts, berries, catkins, leaves, and sprouts-- but they will occasionally eat bird eggs or even nestlings. don't let that precious face fool you--they're tough lil buggers, fitting of any animal that lives in Siberia
