Got to love UNIX’s everything is a file.

ProcFS is from Plan9. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_9_from_Bell_Labs#/proc

As yet, social media posts don’t effect you credit score in the US. Or have a great firewall. Though having something like ICE is a big step back being a country of rule of law. As is an attempted insurrection. And a lot else Trump is doing.

To be fair, pretty easy to argue the US did that to native Americans. Then built a country on slave labour, only giving the black population voting rights in living memory. Right now, racism is increasing and in the open again. Push by billionaires not wanting people to notice they have all the money.

As yet, your posts about the goverment on Facebook or X don’t effect your credit score in the US.

That is also because we let the companies get too big. We need to break them up. The market is completely dysfunctional. It is feudalism right now.

The regulators are needed here.
