The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

This week, the French government raided the Paris offices of X, Elon Musk’s social media platform, as part of a criminal investigation into “Child Sexual Abuse” associated with the Epstein Files and much, much more.
Not a regulatory slap. Not a warning letter. A raid. Computers. Documents. Servers. Banking/Crypto Exchange info.
You don’t raid the offices of Elon Musk on a “whim,” btw.
For the record, Elon Musk called the raid on Twitter (X) offices a ‘political attack.’

France’s official response?
“Investigating child sexual abuse material isn’t controversial. Turning it into political theater is manipulation. Maybe that logic flies on some island. Doesn’t fly in France.
