@ProPublica@newsie.social You might not believe in climate change. But your insurance company believes in climate change.

Insurance companies should be allowed to look through social media and if they find crap like this, they can deny 100% of the claim citing gross negligent behaviour.
@csstrowbridge@mastodon.social seriously? advocating for insurance companies to be more intrusive into our personal lives to deny claims? Can you really not think past being angry at these people to see why that's a terrible idea?
