  on 3 California Cities Blocking Parking Ticket App For Being, Like, Way Too Useful
  Regarding why Fixed stopped the parking ticket part of the app in those 3 cities:
  
  But in August, Xerox began using a third-party organization to block Fixed from accessing the parking ticket site. While Fixed engineers could still work around the block, it now required an increased amount of engineering time and resources, and this also impacted Fixed’s customer service operations.
  
  For that reason, Fixed decided to end support for parking ticket assistance in these locations.

  what's the option?

  on The First Amendment, The Second Amendment And The 3D-Printed Gun
  "If Wilson prevails on constitutional grounds, it will only result in the government searching for a different route to get what it wants: illusory control."
  
  So what's the option...give in to the State Department and take down the plans? That's not illusory control at that point, that is real control.
