Buried in Proton's AI announcement today is a pretty shocking detail about their service 👀
Because of legal uncertainty around Swiss government proposals to introduce mass surveillance — proposals that have been outlawed in the EU — Proton is moving most of its physical infrastructure out of Switzerland. Lumo will be the first product to move.

"South Park" has inked a new deal with Paramount, which a source said was worth about $1.5 billion, and means the season 27 premiere will happen this evening (July 23) on schedule. "While $1.5 billion is an extraordinarily high number for what amounts to 50 episodes of TV, a source said that the overall deal also functioned as an advance on the streaming revenue, helping to explain the cost," @THR reports. The deal comes shortly after Paramount-owned CBS dropped "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert," citing financial reasons.

Im Amt sehen manche einen Generationenkonflikt: Während ältere und in der Hierarchie weiter oben stehende Diplomaten die Staatsräson verteidigen, argumentieren die Jüngeren, #Deutschland dürfe Israels Regierung, wenn sie gegen Völkerrecht verstoße, nicht anders behandeln als den russischen Präsidenten Wladimir Putin oder die Militärjunta in Myanmar. Allerdings gibt es auch altgediente, vor allem ehemalige Diplomaten, die sich für einen Kurswechsel einsetzen. 13 von ihnen forderten jüngst in einem offenen Brief von der Bundesregierung »eine restriktivere Haltung zu Rüstungsexporten und zur militärischen Kooperation mit Israel«.

The Knockoff Mussolini regime keeps desperately trying to brute force the news cycle away from the facts that:

- Congress just passed a bill that's going to significantly hurt most Americans in multiple ways because Congress serves corporations, not you
- Your civil liberties are gone; this is a police state
- The United States is pro-genocide
But it doesn't seem to be working.

I think our largely unregulated system (capitalism) is serving the interests of big corporations and a wealthy elite (supported by much of the media) at the expense of democracy and the needs of the majority.
It is incapable (and those who seek to protect their wealth, unwilling), in the absence of fundamental change, of solving the big issues - climate change, war, poverty, inequality etc.

Der #Faktencheck in besagtem Flugdruck geht weiter. Um es kurz zu machen, es werden 20 Lügen in der Flugschrift dokumentiert, kommentiert und als solche bezeichnet.
En passant: In Sachen Einseitigkeit und Wortgewalt macht keine Epoche den schnellschiessenden Schimpfspatzen des 17. Jahrhunderts den Spitzenplatz streitig.
