Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They are checking every dispute or contested denial of service brought against the company

Case should be closed in no time

[–] peopleproblems 65 points 1 month ago

Man if it's every dispute, that means even the non-indsured are being looked at.

In like 2021 there was a case in Tennessee where the claims were all underpaid.

They also have no friends involved in Medicare. As recently as this past summer they were discovered to be over-billing Medicare by adding diagnostics and treatment the patients never received. And yes, this was the insurance part of UHG.

So if they're investigating everything, it's going to lead to a world of headache for UHG.

I think it’s time we let this man have his peace. Let’s call off the search.

Enough resources have been wasted already

Gun violence is just a fact of life in America, no way to solve it. They should just move on.

Exactly, I'm sure thoughts and prayers were issued somewhere, good enough.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Yeah let’s thoughts and prayers this thing and put it to bed

So they have new photos of him, and they are looking for all surveillance in the 10 days he was in New York, and they have him loitering in the area 5 minutes prior to Thompson's arrival at the investor conference he was attending. They have a cellphone he left. They're trying to get the bike.

They fucking lost him and they're scrambling.

This is exciting. Heck I don't know what I'm more excited about - the potential for The Adjuster to get away, the message Thompson received, the collective panic amongst the elite, or the investigation work telling us how desperate they are trying.

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Honestly, I'm expecting them to just try and pin it on someone just to save face.

[–] peopleproblems 28 points 1 month ago

Yeah, that's the part I'm not excited about. They've narrowed who they are looking for far too much for it to be pinned on just anyone.

So you can guarantee whoever they do pin it on will "resist law enforcement" and be unable to plead their innocence in court.

Seriously. Why the fuck else would your “top investigators” release these kind of details of an ongoing investigation when the normal comment is “we don’t discuss active investigations”?

  1. They have no good leads and are hoping for more tips from the public (lol good luck with that $60k snitch line bounty you stiff people on).
  2. They hope to rattle this purported individual to do something stupid like grant a media interview or send an email/letter
  3. They are throwing a massive digital dragnet around this and are hoping this purported individual is manically F5’ing any and all stories for counterintelligence of their case.

It would be a real shame if the line got flooded with credible, false leads...

Putting the number here just to make sure nobody calls it by accident.

800-577-TIPS

Exciting and revealing on the surveillance state. Well executed by a competent individual

[–] FlyingSquid 44 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Are they going to give him this when they find him?

Because he might have one of these and then they'll be out of luck.

This just shows you the level of surveillance that the government has access to. They don't need to add cameras (well...) as they have access to everyone else's via "request."
