The local implications of a militarized embassy are worse than they appear. The American embassy in Wellington isn't just a PSYOP node in isolation it's operating inside a framework with direct access to New Zealand's own intelligence infrastructure through Five Eyes. GCSB. SIS. All of it now connected to the same network Rubio just formally militarised.

New Zealand's government has a choice it's been careful to avoid until now. At what point does the Five Eyes relationship become incompatible with New Zealand sovereignty and law?

It's the kind of question I'm sure many other governments are considering.

Marco Rubio just signed a cable directing every American embassy globally to coordinate with Pentagon psychological operations units, recruit local academics and community leaders as influence assets, and use Musk's X as the delivery mechanism.

American embassies are now formally hostile infrastructure in every country they're operating in.

That includes New Zealand.

idk why, but the performance of #AzireVPN, especially its stability, has decreased significantly (reddit users would say "since the acquisition by #Malwarebytes / #FiveEyes" ). There are non-stop disconnects, and even when the connection is up, the overall throughput and RTT are laughable.

back to #Mullvad it is and... wow, 50% lower median RTT 🤡

the actually sad part is that everybody hosts at #Datapacket, #31173, #xtom, and #M247, which comfortably covers #FourteenEyes

mhmm.. probably nobody remembers or even knows about #ovpnTO (not to be confused with #ovpnCOM) #MrNice #timeflies

ps: please ignore the packet loss, as the step size is 5min and I just reconfigured and restarted everything - thx

“The US is No One's Ally: Disband NATO (and 5 Eyes) Now”

“And kick all American bases out. Because giving an out-of-control, hostile power unlimited access to a country's territory, political system, resources and culture is tantamount to national suicide”

After the UK as part of the #FiveEyes effectively pulled out of the intelligence alliance after the U.S. committed #WarCrimes by sinking Venezuelan fisher boats and killing the survivors. Now, the other three members should do the same to protect their own leaders from potentially being kidnapped by their intelligence alliance partner, the U.S.
