Big food companies make hot dogs with mechanically separated meat (msm) that, as described matter-of-factly by the [USDA], is "a paste-like and batter-like meat product produced by forcing bones with attached edible meat under high pressure through a sieve or similar device to separate the bone from the edible meat tissue.". I read that and wanted to unread it. ↗

Some ISPs are blocking all BitTorrent traffic, because BitTorrent can be used to share files in a piratical way.

Personally, I think this is like closing down freeways because a bank robber could use them to get away. ↗
