Imo, the anarchist position on the pandemic is that if people had the resources stolen from them by the State & misinformation about the risks wasn’t proliferated by those looking to politicize it to build up their cut of State power, enough people would absolutely quarantine.

Roblox shuts down Chinese mobile app to work on a new version
Photo Illustration by Rafael Henrique/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images
Roblox shut down the Chinese version of its iOS and Android app, also known as LuoBuLeSi, just five months after its release in China, according to a report from TechCrunch. The app, which was rolled out as a test in partnership with Chinese game company Tencent, will be rebuilt and potentially re-released in the country at a later date.
Roblox was officially taken off app stores on December 8th of last year, as announced on a translated version of Roblox China’s website. The post thanks players for testing out the app, and says that developers will “continue to optimize the product.”

FAA lists 50 airports that will have 5G buffer zones ahead of C-band expansion
Photo by Bill Clark/CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images
With AT&T and Verizon set to bring their 5G expansion live on January 19th, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has chosen 50 airports (PDF) that will have buffer zones to help prevent flight disruptions (via Reuters and Wall Street Journal). Safety regulators picked airports based on location, traffic volume, and the likelihood of low visibility — all factors that may increase cancelations, delays, and diversions as both carriers roll out 5G C-band service.
As pointed out by the Wall Street Journal, notably busy airports like Chicago O’Hare, Orlando International, Los Angeles International, and Dallas / Fort Worth International are included on the list, along with airports in locations that are often impacted by foggy conditions,...
