Canada is moving towards a province-by-province system of authorizing immigration.

The Absent Corporation — companies that intentionally give no way to complain or ask for help.

Being mistreated or cheated by one of these companies is a cost of doing business with them, but they hope you won't factor that into your decision of whether to do it.

Daniela Vargas faces immediate deportation after immigration thugs grabbed her after a rally where she spoke to condemn such practice.

She was brought to the US as a child, and was previously given protection fro deportation. She was in the process of applying for renewal of this when the thugs grabbed her. Clearly their goal is to show that there is no such thing in the US any more as due process of law. Clearly this is meant to terrify immigrants.

If there were a hell, I'd suggest deporting all immigration thugs there, with no court hearing, along with other kinds of terrorists.

Hardly anyone reads a web site's "terms of service" before agreeing to them.

I do read them, because I am prepared to refuse to use the site if I see anything in the terms I consider unacceptable. Most people don't see a point in reading them, because they are not prepared to do that.

This points to the basic injustice: most users feel helplessly compelled to accept web disservices with their nasty terms. Even when there is a choice of disservices to use, they only rarely differ in the nasty terms.

I think the solution is that the state should set these terms, democratically. Rather than letting companies impose terms on the public, the public should organize to impose terms on companies.

That's what democracy means: that the many join together to stop the rich from dominating them.
