"The July 27 installment of “Pearls Before Swine” was pulled from national syndication because of a joking reference to ISIS, according to creator Stephan Pastis. (While he doesn’t specifically say so, it seems likely his syndicate, Universal Uclick, removed the strip, as it doesn’t appear on the GoComics website.)"
Issues and developments related to ethics, information, and technologies, examined in the ethics and intellectual property graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. My Bloomsbury book "Ethics, Information, and Technology" will be published in Summer 2025. Kip Currier, PhD, JD
