Not every use of an #algorithm to set price violates federal law, but it is unlawful when, competitors knowingly

“The International #Olympic Committee (#IOC) has released an #advisory #update to their #media #guidelines for coverage of the #Olympics by #journalists, specifically regarding the sort of #language journalists use to discuss #trans #competitors.”
#IOC Backs #Trans #Competitors When it #DoesntCount.
Considering trans competitors are few and far between thanks to the IOC’s #handsoffapproach to #participation #rules and multiple de facto #bans on trans #competitors, their words ring hollow.

Predictably, not everyone was happy for Gumbrell and her #win, with some of her #Transphobic #competitors #arguing that she had an #Unfair #advantage. Backlash to Gumbrell’s win comes amid a wave of #unscientific #antitrans sentiment in relation to #womenssports.

Gutted to see my pal Walter has had to retire from #SpineRace at Dufton. It’s mentioned he appears to have some toe/foot issues. The race continues- this year it’s eliminated a lot of tough #competitors along the course. #endurance #PennineWay
Double #abuse of dominant #market positions: This accusation against #Facebook has been formally levied by the #EU commission. Facebook #marketplace is set up in a way that disadvantages #competitors, and competitors who want to adverise on Facebook or #Instagram mus accept that their data is used against them. My report in German:
