I am not aware of Uber manipulating ratings of cancelled rides. From my understanding of the platform only riders can rate the driver. Is there a published policy that would back up either of our assertions?

The 'Internet' is working as intended. The issue is how HTTP is used and its availability in most consumer devices. Regulation is required, but won't occur with a US congress that is pro-business and anti-consumer.
California could regulate companies within its borders, but it would stand to lose that sweet tax revenue on shares and RSU's when they move to a different state.

Do people normally mail their pictures to themselves? Mail is typically limited to sender -> receiver. The closest analogue to me would be a diary and unfortunately not so clear-cut: https://blogs.findlaw.com/law_and_life/2017/06/legally-is-my...

He neglected to mention usenet, where he made his original announcement about his hobby OS. The Usenet alt groups were one of the first examples of what's seen in FB/TWT/IG today. What's changed is who has access and the methods of access - everyone and everywhere.
