ISS dodges space junk from satellite Russia blew up

No matter what area of the political spectrum you support, introducing an unnecessary extra cloud of supersonic shrapnel into near-earth orbit has got to be a pretty dumb-ass thing to do... one can only hope it comes back to bite future projects of those responsible, rather than any other spacefarers who happen to encounter it.

Zuck says Facebook made an 'operational mistake' in not taking down US militia page mid-protests. TBH the whole social network is a mistake

There seems to me to be different levels of responsibility that need to be addressed here. On the one hand FB as it is providing the platform for the posters should be monitoring what is published and selectively removing content that is unreasonable. I guess the volume of what is posted globally hourly makes this a very difficult goal, but the moment complaints are made regarding a specific post that should be considered a clue where to focus attention.

Ultimately the content and context of posts are the responsibility of the posters - a few successful prosecutions in individual accountability wouldn't go amiss.
