Destroyed His Own Reputation

I have never seen anyone destroy their own reputation like Steve did on the Jun 6. How many times has Steve warned about apps collecting data or some other problem (ep. 886, 894, 905 are just a few). But Steve goes off the political 'DEEP END' to use his phrase with the proposed legislation that would have apps label country of origin. Considering the following story after he mocked this legislation where cameras were being using because of faulty app/software it shows how his politics override his cognitive ability. After 5 years of listening I have now unsubscribed becaue I don't want politics.
