That's why legally-required identity verification sucks. For the companies, it's damned if you do, damned if you don't. The reality is that we're moving into a more authoritarian world, which is why it's important to start using indie or self-hosted apps that are not covered by the law.

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Here's a little more detail of the eye ring on the male Black-headed Trogon at Agami Island. The blue is skin; not feathers.

One day, I hope to get a closer view of this species.

1. they were never educated (esp "ipad generation") & don't know how computers work
