    Incredible to watch this continued vandalism from across the Atlantic. It seems if there's something that Trump and his cronies can't make a quick buck off then it needs to be smashed. America, the leviathan (in the Hobbesian sense), is crippling itself, blinding itself, cutting itself off from allies. What's will be left in 4 years? Not the same country.

      It’s also hard to imagine something which provides a better value than accessible weather data. Farming, construction, shipping, flights, etc.

      Then again, good weather data might support climate change arguments, so it has to go.
