>> Why have I never heard of this?

You havent heard about this because the NY Times and other "liberal media" care more about the "monopoly" of free messaging apps and justice in Ukraine than justice and human rights in the USA. This isnt an opinion, it is a fact based on coverage (or lack thereof.)

Just turn off Javascript or use Noscript to get around it.

What are you alluding to? The "Kids for Cash"[1] incident is from 2008, and isn't not being covered because of the things you mentioned.
