This is a pathetic ploy by the US/Israel to deflect attention from their indefensible genocide. The report released by #FransescaAlbanese is a remarkable & crucial document revealing the depth of complicity by major companies in the genocide.

🌟 Narcissism can deeply affect creative collaborations. During brainstorming, a narcissistic individual might dominate the conversation, seeking to overshadow others' ideas rather than build collectively. This can stifle innovation as the space for genuine exchange shrinks. Monopolizing ideas often leads to resentment, reducing trust and teamwork. Awareness of these dynamics helps us foster healthier, more balanced creative environments where every voice matters. 💡🤝 #Narcissism #CreativeCollaboration #MentalHealthMatters

Peter Putnam was a promising student of John Wheeler who became obsessed with a computational model of the mind, was tormented by a pathological relationship with his wealthy mother, and ended up contributing to community politics while working blue collar jobs.

Science writer Amanda Gefter spent more than a decade tracking down the people who knew him, and diving into a vast store of his unpublished work and private papers.

A long read, but fascinating and moving.

US contractors say their colleagues are firing live ammo as Palestinians seek food in Gaza
AP spoke to the two contractors for UG Solutions, an American outfit subcontracted to hire security personnel for the distribution sites. They said bullets, stun grenades and pepper spray were used at nearly every distribution, even if there was no threat.

In one video, what appear to be heavily armed American security contractors at one of the sites in Gaza discuss how to disperse Palestinians nearby. One is heard saying he has arranged for a “show of force” by Israeli tanks.

“I don’t want this to be too aggressive,” he adds, “because this is calming down.” At that moment, bursts of gunfire erupt close by, at least 15 shots. “Whoo! Whoo!” one contractor yelps. “I think you hit one,” one says. Then comes a shout: “Hell, yeah, boy!”

From yesterday:
#Hamas said in a statement that it is studying the ceasefire proposal but noted that it wants any deal to lead to an end to the war.
#Hospital officials in #Gaza said at least 111 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli air strikes across the Strip today, including 24 people waiting for aid.
Wafa news agency reported earlier that 14 Palestinians have been arrested in Israeli raids across the #Bethlehem governorate in the occupied West Bank, where about 400 families would be made homeless by an Israeli army order to demolish more than 100 homes.
Israel’s governing Likud party, led by Netanyahu, is pushing for the formal annexation of the occupied #WestBank before the Israeli parliament’s summer recess on July 27.

“Nanook” is a slur for northern indigenous people in the same way “Chan” is a slur for Chinese people. Sure, there might be some members of that demographic with that name, but using the term as a generalization for that demographic is derogatory in intent.

Using the term “Eskimo” in the instance name is problematic for at least two reasons.

  1. The term itself is considered problematic and derogatory for reasons I don't have time to go into here, but feel free to research why it’s under fire.
  2. I haven’t checked, but the admins are probably not part of the demographics that the term would refer to, so they’re not “reclaiming a slur” so to speak

Here are the female members of parliament dressed in the sashes of the Suffragettes. Four people were killed by the campaigns of the Suffragettes, and 24 others were injured. The contemporary press called them "Terrorists"

Shortly after this photograph was taken, these ladies took off their sashes and all apart from a few voted in the HofC for #PalestineAction to be a proscribed terrorist organisation.

Did you know that there's a thing called the "Automatic Billing Update" program (ABU), that enables merchants to get notified of your replacement payment card number before it even shows up in your mailbox?

globalnews.ca/news/9763295/lit…

Yep, you can guess what the bad guys are doing. They're registering as a merchant and then involuntarily signing people up for nonexistent "subscriptions" ... that their support path mysteriously refuses to let you unsubscribe from:

malwaretips.com/blogs/vigor-vi…

But if you naively report these to your issuer as simply 'fraud', they will just ... issue you a new card. And then the "subscription" will be charged again.

Many issuer support teams seem be totally unaware of this fraud type. You have to explicitly tell them it's a subscription scam, and ask them block that merchant from using ABU to get your new card number. (That card is lost, but at least the evil merchant won't get the next one).

(I found this out the hard way, helping some elderly friends, whose cards kept getting mysteriously "compromised". When I realized that an unexpected charge happened before they had even received the new card ... I knew it wasn't just ordinary skimming or phishing.)

tl;dr When you detect unauthorized charges, ask your issuer to check for ABU and block the entire merchant. Otherwise, you'll be caught in an unending cycle of useless reissuance!

The little-known credit card program that lets companies share your information

GrapheneOS Organization Calls Out False Claims Made In European Countries By Media Outlets
European authoritarians and their enablers in the media are misrepresenting GrapheneOS and even Pixel phones as if they're something for criminals. GrapheneOS is opposed to the mass surveillance police state these people want to impose on everyone.

xatakandroid.com/sociedad/cada…

There are ongoing coordinated attempts at misleading people about GrapheneOS and Signal in multiple European countries. A consistent pattern are completely unsubstantiated claims about exploits with no evidence. These are contradicted by actual evidence, leaks and their behavior.

GrapheneOS is not immune to exploitation, but the fearmongering done in these ongoing attacks on it is very clearly fabricated. They feel threatened enough by GrapheneOS to engage in coordinated attempts at convincing people that it's unable to protect their privacy and security.

GrapheneOS eliminates many classes of remotely exploitable vulnerabilities and makes the vast majority far harder to exploit. It even puts up a strong fight against attacks advanced forensic data extraction tools with physical access. See discuss.grapheneos.org/d/14344… for an example.

There's currently an example of one of these attacks on the project ongoing across Swedish forums and social media. This reached our forum at discuss.grapheneos.org/d/23535…. An account pretending to be just asking questions goes on to pretend to be an expert citing non-existent sources.

This same thing is currently ongoing across several Swedish forums and on social media. It's generally not in English which makes it inaccessible to the broader GrapheneOS and privacy community so they can get away with extraordinary, unsubstantiated claims much more easily.

GrapheneOS is not supposed to stop people installing malware and granting it invasive permission. It does provide alternatives to being coerced into granting invasive permissions by apps via our Storage Scopes, Contact Scopes and other permissions, but it's a user choice.

GrapheneOS similarly not supposed to prevent authorized access to data by someone with the PIN/password and access to the device. Rather, we provide far stronger protection against unauthorized access via exploit protections, 2-factor fingerprint unlock, duress PIN/password, etc.

Our features page at grapheneos.org/features provides an overview of how GrapheneOS improves privacy, security and other areas compared to the most secure Android devices running the stock OS. It's not immune to exploitation and cannot be. Products making that claim are scams.

Not being immune to exploitation doesn't mean it can be successfully exploited in a given real world scenario. It's significantly harder to develop and deploy an exploit successfully. It can be exploited, but it doesn't mean it is happening especially at scale or consistently.

Having far from perfect security does not mean real world attacks including sophisticated ones will be successful in practice. Don't fall for security nihilism propaganda. We'll keep working on advancing security for general purpose computing devices. It will keep getting better.

GrapheneOS Organization Commentary On False Claims About AOSP Privacy By ICEBlock App
bsky.app/profile/iceblock.app/…

Apple stores which devices/users install which apps. They have the device IDs. US government could obtain a list of people who installed the app if a court authorized it. Not clear what they mean by having to store device IDs. Those IDs aren't accessible to Android apps.

ANDROID_ID is a per-app-per-profile random ID. Not clear why they would need it. Android has privacy-preserving hardware-based attestation if they're talking about making it harder to spoof a location. Can't prevent either iOS or Android users making false reports via attestation APIs regardless.

bsky.app/profile/iceblock.app/…

Making posts with inaccurate technical claims about Android doesn't inspire confidence. It's a closed source app with a closed source service fully under their control. Why is that the approach if their goal is helping people rather than monetizing interest in it?

bsky.app/profile/iceblock.app/…

Apple records which apps people install and requires an account to use their app store. Apple Push Notification Service (APNs) has comparable privacy to Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). However, iOS apps must use APNs for push while Android apps do not have to use FCM.

Android apps can implement their own push service or allow the user to choose a service via the UnifiedPush framework. Play Store has a policy of requiring FCM for most use cases for battery reasons but there are exceptions. Unlike iOS, Android allows installing apps from other app stores / sources.

ICEBlock app is very clearly misleading people about privacy and their safety. Apple has a list of which accounts/devices have installed the app. They will provide it to the US government if they receive a court order. FCM is also not less private than APNS and FCM doesn't work the way they claim.

iPhones have good overall privacy and security but Apple does collect telemetry, forces people to have accounts and knows which apps each user/device has installed. They do not have magical privacy and security properties. An app like this claiming iOS gives them 100% anonymity is very strange.

iOS has significantly worse support for VPNs than Android and requires using Apple services. Android exists without Google services and people can install apps from elsewhere. The mandatory or effectively mandatory services on Google Mobile Services devices and iOS have comparable privacy.
