Scientific FrontlineUnderstanding sadism—specifically in its subclinical or "everyday" manifestations—is no longer merely an academic exercise relegated to #forensic #psychology or criminal pathology. As will be explored in this intense analysis, everyday sadism is deeply embedded in the current state of humanity.

Habr«Разблокируй телефон» — как я реализовал фейковый мессенджер для допроса
Привет, Хабр! Я разрабатываю open-source мессенджер Xipher (C++/Android), и одна из фич, которую пришлось проектировать особенно тщательно — Panic Mode . Это система правдоподобной отрицаемости (plausible deniability): при вводе специального PIN-кода мессенджер показывает полностью фейковую , но убедительную базу данных с поддельными чатами, а параллельно отправляет скрытый SOS-сигнал на сервер. В статье разберу архитектуру целиком — от криптографического разделения баз до генерации правдоподобных фейков и маскировки panic-алерта под рутинный сетевой запрос. Весь код — из реального проекта. Исходники открыты — ссылка на GitHub в конце статьи.

Radio Against RepressionFrancesca Albanese at bUm
A lecture by UN Special Rapporteur #FrancescaAlbanese as part of the February 19th event: Conditions of Life Calculated to Destroy, #Legal and #Forensic Perspectives on the Ongoing #Gaza #Genocide - at bUm, Berlin.
The lecture was supposed to take place in a big lecture hall at Freie universitat, along with Eyal Weizman, director of #ForensicArchitecture. But the university cancelled the event after massive critique, amongst others from the Israeli ambassador, and from the #mayor of Berlin, #KaiWegner, who called it antisemitic. The relocated event at bUm took place under police presence. A few days earlier, Albanese’s lecture at a University in #Munich had also been cancelled, as we mentioned in Episode One.
Huge thanks to #UN #SpecialRapporteur Francesca Albanese, Zoë Claire Miller and bUm Berlin.
View the entire event at #bUm here: https://vimeo.com/1058614428
