The Order of the Foil is a community of sea sports enthusiasts at East Coast Park, Singapore.
The coat of arms for the Order was inspired by the Roman eagle or Aquila (in this case a White Bellied Sea Eagle that nearly brained a paddleboarder).
The sea eagle soars above the waves riding on the front wing of a foil etched with the Latin phrase "Amici Ad Omnia", meaning friends ready for any adventure.
The crown represents the headgear to prevent the aforesaid braining by sea eagles, but also an acknowledgement that we are all champions in our own way...

"Absolute genius this Order of the Foil! Love the whole concept, in particular the safety overlay to the design of the coat of arms! I couldn't imagine anything worse than receiving a braining mid session from a sea eagle"

Derived from the idiom bandwagon, the word describes a deplorable behavior on the internet where online news platforms ban users from posting comments on their Facebook page.
While these platforms purportedly support freedom of speech, they have also maintained their right to ban users from their technology platforms.
This claim is disingenuous as the technology platform underpins the delivery of online content and is therefore inseparable from the exercise of free speech, particularly in the social media space.
