Migrants deported from US stranded, 'scared' in DR Congo

Kinshasa (AFP) - Spending the past five days cooped up in a hotel in the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo is not quite what a group of Latin Americans expected when they sought asylum in the United States. But their predicament is far from the worst of it: the men and women told AFP on Wednesday that they arrived in Kinshasa after a 27-hour flight which they spent with their hands and feet shackled. Gabriela, a 30-year-old Colombian sporting tattoos and clad like most of her fellow sufferers in a white T-shirt, summed up their plight. "I didn't want to go to Congo. I'm scared, I don...

So, given the attack on #SamAltman's house (and how gun-ho many workplaces are for employees to join the #AICult), I expect that anyone #ResistingAI will be next ones to be branded as #Terrorists.

#PauseAI and #StopAI: Meet the #AntiAI groups facing questions after the attack on Sam Altman

By Sharon Goldman
April 15, 2026

Excerpt: "The attempted firebombing of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s San Francisco home last Friday, allegedly carried out by 20-year-old Daniel Moreno-Gama, has drawn attention to two anti-AI groups with similar names: Pause AI and Stop AI. Both have condemned the violence and said the suspect is not and was never a member of their organizations.

"Still, the incident, in which Moreno-Gama also went to #OpenAI’s headquarters and tried to shatter the building’s glass doors with a chair and threatened to burn the facility, surfaced his activity on Pause AI’s Discord server and renewed scrutiny of Stop AI’s direct actions targeting OpenAI last year."

Don't ask what #Palantir does wrong to you (surveillance, spying, #technofascism), ask what #USDemocrats will do to stop it. That's the whole point of elections and voting.

Will Dems treat the serpent's egg like the #fascism it is? Will they do business with them? Will they regulate #AI technologies, enforce standards and tests, and fund research for alternatives in ML tech?

Ask the right questions and expect the right answers. Silence is not an option.
