POST SCHOOL ELECTION CHATTER, BOTS, BLOCKING, YADA YADA YADA

Many of us are not on social media but we get to hear about it periodically and are sometimes sent screenshots...trending at the moment:

***BOTS..... bots.... everywhere a bot..... yes one site is particularly overrun. Nothing to be done---Let it suffice to say that Facebook is flooded with bots because the platform is huge, profitable to exploit, and difficult to police at scale. Billions of fake accounts are created and removed every year, yet new ones appear just as fast. Our advice? Choose what pages you visit and post on wisely.

***FACEBOOK BLOCKING***The merits/ethics of using the facebook "blocking" mechanism when possible, under discussion, across multiple sites

***LOTS OF POSITIVE CHATTER ABOUT THE SCHOOL ELECTION OUTCOME; A REAL REFLECTION OF THE CHANGE THAT'S DESIRED....AND POSSIBLY COMING. UNHAPPINESS ABOUT THE LIBRARY....NO POINT IN REPEATING.

***APPARENTLY THERE IS YET ANOTHER PEEKSKILL "NO KINGS" PROTEST PLANNED HERE FOR THIS WEEKEND. SHOP ACCORDINGLY.

A REQUEST FOR A RE-POST---ABOUT THAT "POLITICAL PROTEST" AT THE CVS LOT A FEW WEEKS BACK

Many of us are not on social media, local or otherwise, but we often get to hear about it and are sometimes sent screenshots. A few weeks back, there were considerable complaints about a "political protest" in the CVS lot from both store owners and customers whose occupants, "largely composed of Peekskill residents, were disruptive to the day's business". Quick video clips were also allegedly posted online but we did not see these and preferred to wait until there was official confirmation. This is what the most recently posted police blotter has to say; click on the image. If you want to know more, you will have to do your own research. For the entire blotter. go to Police Blotter: April 5, 2026 to April 11, 2026 | Croton-on-Hudson NY
