Remember Google Glass? It didn't even hit the market, because the inconspicuous filming feature would turn its users into pariah's. Now your neighbour's #Tesla is continuously #filming you and your family. Yet you failed to condemn him. Is it ignorance or or deliberate disinterest?

#Texas Parole Board ‘Unanimously’ Says Murderer Who Drove Into #BLM Protesters & Shot 1 To Death Should Be Pardoned

US Army Sgt Daniel Perry had posted on social media he might “kill a few people on my way to work."

"You can't make this stuff up."

Unfortunately, in Texas you don't have to.

#Tesla board chair #RobynDenholm is so absentee, she doesn’t even live in this hemisphere, but in Australia. She’s made way more $ off Elmo’s stock fraud for what’s usually an honorary side gig, than from her accounting and CFO day jobs.

So…there is a concerted campaign, with Musk as its mouthpiece, to discredit Signal and get people to switch to Telegram. It’s disinformation, but there’s also useful information in it. The useful information is that a hideous, powerful, right-wing crank — or whoever’s yanking his chain — really, really wants people to use Telegram.

We’ve long known Telegram’s security is weak. But now, in light of this new information, we should move forward assuming that Telegram is actively compromised.

David Tennant: “I remember gay rights being weaponised politically. That always felt ugly & nasty… 30 years later & those people are clearly on the wrong side of history. Now there is a similar weaponisation of these topics… to create friction & conflict & division where it needn’t be. It’s just about people being themselves. You don’t need to be bothered about it. F**k off & let people be”

Jack Dorsey is crawling back to Twitter, licking Elon’s boots, calling the site “freedom technology”. In case anyone wondered about Jack’s political alignment: it’s far right, techno-fascist probably.

If you think Kristi Noem tripling down and changing her story about why she had to execute her puppy is blatantly sociopathic, wait till you hear what the GOP has planned for trans folks, women seeking abortions, and librarians.
