Considering what the BBC has said today about their broadcast of Bob Vylan from Glastonbury, I can only assume that in future if any musical artist makes a political statement the broadcast will immediately be cut.
And that, chums, is simple authoritarian censorship.

Τι συνέβη έξω από το νέο κυλικείο της Νομικής με την "εργαζόμενη" του ΕΜΠ Γεωργία Τύρου , που τελικά έχει τρία κυλικεία
youtube.com/watch?v=4LVuOCUoPR…
Πέμπτη (3/7), δεύτερη μέρα ανοίγματος του χώρου, ήμασταν και πάλι εκεί. Αυτή τη φορά το μαγαζάκι άδειο, με τρείς ΔΑΠίτες που δεν έμειναν και πολύ. Φωνάζοντας συνθήματα προσεγγίσαμε τον χώρο και ανοίξαμε το πανό μας μπροστά στην είσοδο. Αυτό δεν άρεσε πολύ στους κυλικιάρχες, που μας έβγαζαν βίντεο, έπαιρναν συνεχώς τηλέφωνα και μας επιτέθηκαν επανειλλημένα. Πολλές φορές προσπάθησαν να αρπάξουν το πανό, και η Γεωργία Τύρου, ούσα εκπαιδευμένη άλλωστε στις επιθέσεις, με το μένος της μία φορά σχεδόν τα κατάφερε, ενώ χρειάστηκε η επέμβαση του θυρωρού για να ηρεμήσει και να εμποδίσει τα χειρότερα... Παρόλα αυτά αργότερα ο συνέταιρός της δεν δίστασε να ρίξει χλέπες στον συγκεντρωμένο κόσμο.
...φάνηκε ξεκάθαρα ότι στρατηγική τους ήταν να προβοκάρουν για να προκαλέσουν ένταση ώστε να μπορούν να εδραιώσουν την παρουσία τους μέσω της θυματοποίησής τους και προκαλώντας την λύπηση προς το πρόσωπό τους διασπείροντας ψεύδη. Ξέροντας τον τρόπο που λειτουργούν και πώς στήνουν ψευδείς δικογραφίες τραβήξαμε και δικά μας βίντεο, στα οποία φαίνεται ότι τα αφεντικἁ-φίλοι-των-πρυτάνεων ξαναεπιτέθηκαν σε φοιτητά και σε αγωνιζόμενο κόσμο μέσα σε πανεπιστήμιο.

Several people I respect recently made similar observations to the effect that there is the security community, and then there's the security industry, which are frequently two VERY different things with somewhat misaligned goals and incentives. Seems like there's a lot of truth to explore there.
From my various provocations on LinkedIn the past six months, it's become clear the latter is largely content to sit quietly or even cheer as this administration makes a public mockery of everything their industry claims to stand for. I suspect this may have something to do with tons of security firms suddenly recasting themselves as AI-focused companies.
Am I way off base or too idealistic or simplistic here, or just jaded? I've been trying to identify the real source of my malaise over attending security industry events over the past few months, and I think this dynamic is a big part of it.
I don't know about you (and others), but in my experience nowadays, when someone says they're in Security/in the Security Industry, they really mean they're in Compliance, which...I think explains the state of the industry, in more ways than one.
The guts of infosec and "security" have effectively diverged, I think.
Personally, I lay this at the feet of the "business" parasites who co-opted otherwise honest business ventures and relationships in search of capital.
We worked closely with Compliance but at my last job (electric utility) security was a distinctive and separate organization from Compliance.
Hell, Compliance would audit us on a quarterly basis.

We the billionaires, and our King, in order to deform and sicken our Union, establish injustice, ensure domestic servility, weaken our peoples defenses, undermine our general welfare, and reserve to ourselves and our posterity staggering debt servitude for eternity, do herby instruct the Republicans in Congress to strip 17 million people of their healthcare, increase copays, premiums and deductibles for everyone else, cut 42 million people off of nutritional assistance, increase the national debt by 4 trillion dollars, trash renewable energy systems, increase our electric bills for the carbon kings, all to weaken and destroy the Constitution of the people of these United States of America.

be it human bodies, ability to grow food or valuable shit under the ground, it's all about resources and the power gained by granting or denying access to them on the global market.
If countries were all small, there would be fewer centers of power and more collaboration. We'd still need something LIKE the UN to stop East Bumblefuck from invading West Bumblefuck, but there would be more coalitions because each political unit would have less power.

Deportations haven't gone up and they won't go up. This bill has trillions of spending that's directly intended to crash the economy, and provisions that prevent states from defending themselves from the new Federal Government AI slop and Federally mandated identity management.
It's not going to do anything about illegal aliens and you're falling for the President of the United States of Israel's agenda.
Are you lying, stupid, or both?
