Sounds like primarily a money grab for the certificate issuers like Network Solutions, who currently provide the certificates for the organization I work at. All under the guise of "more secure" I'm sure..............

One could ask you the same.

The Problem Of Woke College Football: https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/lsu-tigers-orgeron-saban-problem-of-woke-college-football/ Remember, the Cowboys market themselves as “America’s team.” Think about how popular college football teams introducing racial politics into college football in the middle of this presidential campaign is likely to play. If you’re mad at your favorite team for getting woke, and regard it as yet another example of the left politicizing everything, might that not affect your vote, and/or your political intensity? It just seems to me that if you are a football player trying to build interest in and sympathy for Black Lives Matter, this is not the way to do it. In fact, it’s the way to energize opponents of BLM. And I have a sense that this is going to have some effect, perhaps not measurable, on the fall election — and beyond. The cumulative effect of politicizing sports to the cultural left could be to help radicalize the conservative base. What do you think?

https://spectator.org/americas-struggle-session-comes-to-college-football/ How embarrassing. Herbstreit could have defended college sports as a means for underprivileged young adults, disproportionately black of course, to escape those disadvantageous circumstances in crime-riddled neighborhoods and acquire the skills, athletic or otherwise, to turn professional in high-paying occupations. College sports is one of the best vehicles for bringing Americans of all colors and creeds together behind common purposes. He could have said that. He could have said if America was a little more like the example its college sports programs set on their best days, there wouldn’t be the need for riots in the streets. But he didn’t. Instead he made millions of Americans miserable with his emotionalist micturation all over our TV screens and turned an attempt at entertainment and escape into an involuntary pīpàn dòuzhēng for one of the last bastions of traditional America. Those millions will turn into hundreds of thousands. College football fans will head for fishing holes and hunting leases. College sports is, as Ben Domenech noted, a luxury item. Not a necessity. And the social-justice Left, which ruins everything it touches, has its hands on pro and college sports like Joe Biden on a twelve-year-old. All that’s left is to watch the stadiums empty and the advertisers drop out. Herbstreit killed college football on Saturday. Americans have no patience for struggle sessions. The Cultural Revolution is one thing Americans simply won’t buy from China. Yep. I watched that homily by Mr. Herbstreit and just shook my head. If this is the crap ESPN and the other broadcasters of college football are going to shove down their viewers throats then I'll have something better to do on a Saturday in Autumn. The woods are calling and I must go........................

https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/270035/ Should be an interesting next couple of years in higher education. The above struggles plus the spending spree most colleges and universities have been on, courtesy of all that "free" federal education money, will start to dry up as the number of available students start to plummet.

This story proves it.

https://reason.com/2020/09/04/sex-predators-victimless-crime-children-police-washington/ Apparently sending people away for the longest possible time, not actually protecting the public, is the goal. That the "meager investment" means locking away chumps who bit the confusing bait of a middle-aged male cop posing as a 20-something female cop posing as a 13-year-old female gamer, well, who cares? "Think of the "dividends." Winerip's article also details the cozy relationship between the police and a non-profit ostensibly dedicated to saving children from trafficking: Operation Underground Railroad. OUR, as it's called, donated more than $170,000 to the Washington police to support these stings. These funds "paid for additional detectives, hotels, food and overtime." Seemingly in return, the police helped the organization reap positive publicity. And of course, the more predators the cops catch, the more people are eager to donate to an organization focused on this scourge. They must donate generously. OUR's founder, Tim Ballard, earned $343,000 in 2018. The fact that his organization supports a police operation that doesn't help any real child victims and seems to create predators out of lonely men falling for fictional characters? Details, details. Think of the dividends! Frankly this is nothing but entrapment, and needs to stop. Think of the dividends.

USC Suspended a Communications Professor for Saying a Chinese Word That Sounds Like a Racial Slur https://reason.com/2020/09/03/usc-greg-patton-chinese-word-offended-students/ This is ridiculous. It seems clear that Patton did not mean to harm anyone, and that the point he was making was perfectly valid. The resemblance between these two words is purely coincidental, and adults should be perfectly capable of hearing the Chinese version without fainting in front of their computer screens. Anyone who is this prepared to be bothered all the time needs to turn down their outrage dial. "I'll say this ten thousand times, but if anyone thinks they're helping the cause of racial equality by engaging in absurd, over-the-top speech policing of innocent people, then they're sadly mistaken," wrote The Dispatch's David French. There is nothing for the university to investigate: Patton should be restored to his teaching position immediately. If anything, the offended students should apologize to him for causing the inconvenience. Agreed. The individuals who tried to cancel Mr. Patton are nothing but liberal snowflakes actively looking to bothered, offended, outraged, etc.
