“‘Someone’ cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second,” Bray posted on Bluesky social media. “We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’”

If there was a government stop on his travel, such as being added to a no-fly list, he wouldn’t be able to simply rebook his tickets as the article describes.

Since the article does not explicitly say how it happened, you have to read between the lines. None of what they described sounded like government persecution, but it sounds exactly like what happens when you’re targeted by 4chan for harassment.

Again, he was immediately rebooked by the airlines, and not taken away by DHS or TSA.

The article also makes it sound like the airline is in a bit of CYA mode, because at minimum they were the targets of a extremely high profile case of social engineering.

IMO it was really poor decision to make a public announcement about his intents to leave the country, prior to his actually leaving the country, especially since he’s traveling with his family.

Using Google products is implicit support for Google.

Which, by the way, I understand, but if you actually read the comments from top to bottom, you would have grasped the context.

So tell me you didn’t actually read the comment thread without telling me.

The person I was responding to was declaring that their choice to use an Android based phone makes them a more ethical consumer, and therefore a better person, then iPhone users.

That’s an absurd position, which was what my comment was highlighting.

How about you just don’t act high and mighty and pretend that your personal consumer choice of using an Android based OS somehow make you more ethical then those who use an iPhone.

Oh that’s fantastic.

Can you please tell me you’re entirely ethical smartphone setup?

Obviously you won’t have any Android in there, including Android ROMs which are based off of AOSP, as Google is just as, if not more, evil than Apple, and any project based off Google’s OS is inherently unethical.

Are you’re using a Fair Phone? If not, what ethical phone are you using?

And for your OS, is Sailfish or Ubuntu Touch?

Completely misleading headline.

It looks like someone socially engineered the canceling of his family’s trip.

At least according to this article, it was not any government action stopping him from leaving.

Probably still traumatic for them all, but they’ve already rebooked new flights, per the article.

Not yet.

For starters, you can’t even spell québécois with the real American alphabet.

Their use of tidles alone is just cause for annexation and reeducation.

How about we just take Quebec off your hands?

Now, that’s the art of the deal, problem solved.

Unless you live in Quebec, then my condolences because it’s about to get real rough for you.

I went to their about us page expecting to see at least one Vietnamese American.

Nope, all wealthy white people.

Maybe they are a group of well meaning individuals, I don’t know, as I didn’t look past that page.

But… If their entire purpose is advocacy for, and about, Vietnam, you would think they would want at least someone from the region on their core leadership team…

This is in preparation for California wildfires.

He’s setting precedent with an exponentially smaller disaster in a red state, as political cover for future denial of relief funds for the much larger Blue State seasonal disasters.

Great group: The Coup. Their discography is amazing.

Finally, a reason for me to join T-Mobile.

Most successful assassin in modern history, maybe all of history?

He killed Abe for his UC ties, and a short few years later, no more Japanese UC.

Has any other politically motivated assassination so directly, and spectacularly, achieved it’s aims?

Well, yeah.

Europe is continent sized piece of land. Russian tanks rolling into Moldova is a bit different than Poland, or Germany.

Different politically, militarily, and strategically.

Even then, I can’t see Putin biting off any more at this particular moment. Time will tell if Trump significantly eases sanctions to a degree that would enable him to speedily recapitialize.

Of course, I didn’t believe he’d actually try and take Kiev, so I’m not going to sit here and cosplay as a Kreminologist.

No, he’s a cryptocurrency analyst, with a focus on cryptocurrency related hip-hop artists.

There was a lot of poor choices working in concert to allow this accident to even happen, but based off the article there was nothing maliciously stupid, or grossly negligent in the context of rural southern AZ.
