US law enforcement warns of “#AntiTech extremism” as #AIHatred grows

The feds are raising the alarm about a new category of threat.

Daniel Boguslaw, WIRED.com – May 27, 2026

Excerpt: "In the wake of attacks on CEOs, a nationwide protest movement targeting data centers, and increasing concerns about AI job replacement, federal intelligence agencies and domestic law enforcement are circulating reports with a new domestic target in mind: #AntiTechnologyExtremists.

"More than 1,000 pages of unpublished reports from the Department of Homeland Security, FBI, and fusion centers obtained by WIRED show a national shift taking place to surveil this new and worryingly broad category of people and activities deemed an emerging threat.

"This new effort follows President Donald Trump’s National Security Presidential Memo 7, which instructs the Department of Justice to target anyone holding '#AntiAmerican,' '#AntiChristian,' and '#AntiCapitalism' beliefs. Earlier this month, #Trump’s counterterrorism czar, #SebastianGorka, released a public counterterrorism strategy claiming that left-wing extremists are one of the three top counterterrorism priorities facing the United States.

"Taken together, these Trump administration directives have commandeered the domestic surveillance apparatus to surveil and criminalize speech and assembly that challenges the ideology of the White House. A new focus on anti-technology extremism adds an unreported category to already public designations under a presidency that has heavily invested political and material capital in #AI and #datacenter proliferation.

"Among the documents in the tranche obtained by WIRED is a New York Intelligence and Counterterrorism Bureau report that warns of widespread upheaval in response to AI adoption. Of particular note is a novel term for what the bureau purports to be an emerging extremism threat."

Sam Altman isn't a visionary—he's a salesman.
And his latest pitch is the biggest grift in tech history.
He’s offering a shiny, AI-powered utopia.
But read the fine print.
The price?
$750 billion — a sum so vast it could end global hunger, solve the climate crisis, and fund universal healthcare… but instead, it fuels his empire.
More electricity than India — while the planet burns and communities face blackouts, his servers come first.
All of our data — every thought, message, moment, handed over permanently.
If his "utopia" fails?
He still wins. He’ll own the infrastructure, the data, the patents—the entire playing field.
We’re left with a stripped digital wasteland, and he’ll be selling shovels for the next hype cycle.
This isn't innovation. It’s a calculated takeover disguised as salvation.

Could not figure out why my work VPN would drop connection each time I'd try and log on from my home office over the last few weeks. I tried so many combinations over two weeks that didn't make a difference. I went into the IT room at work last Friday, met with my admin and logged onto the VPN on the staff WiFi, no issues.

Go to log into the VPN today, I then lose all internet connection, both WiFi and wired. I'm wired directly to my fiber router, there should be no issue. Finally pulled logs today with my network admin, when we log into our VPN remotely it pulls patches and host tables from an IP assigned to an #AWS server.

As a coincidence, parts of #AWS were down today and during the other times I tried to log in remotely, meaning that my client side login could not pull the patch and tables due to no response from the host. So the program would fail gracefully and sit with the 'lost connection'. This didn't happen when I logged in at work because of our direct connection to the state IT enterprise system.

I really really wish that we had the capacity as a state enterprise to do our own hosting in a reliable, resilient and cost effective manner. But wishing only gets us so far and that is a triangle situation: you need three but get to pick two. 😉
