“Given this administration’s crackdown on free expression, protest, immigrants, and women’s health,” EFF sees this “as a bold attack on freedom of communication,” EFF’s @cooperq told @404mediaco. “They want to take away our ability to make an anonymous phone call.” https://www.404media.co/fcc-wants-to-kill-burner-phones-by-forcing-telecoms-to-get-all-customers-ids/

FCC Wants to Kill Burner Phones By Forcing Telecoms to Get All Customers’ IDs

The FCC wants to legally force telecoms to collect new and renewing customers’ government issued identity number and physical address, impacting everyone from the privacy-conscious to domestic abuse survivors. “We never thought that would happen here.”

Fuck Google and all their ad-based revenue.

75-80% of Google's income is from advertising. It's no wonder they want to kill ad blockers.

Denis - The COVID info guy -16h ago

Guenter GR: "The best Long Covid study to date has now been published, with surprising results that enable new therapeutic approaches. In simple terms: Long Covid is caused (in the areas studied) by autoantibodies in the blood, which then attack very important parts of the brain and can actually explain all the symptoms."

"Key insight: Long Covid patients must absolutely not donate blood, because it appears to be transmissible via those autoantibodies in the blood!"

America's fascist secret police get their massive funding, and we are in for a world of pain in coming years. As usual, Big Journalism treats this as just another normal day, rather than what it is: another giant step toward right-wing dictatorship. https://apnews.com/article/immigration-enforcement-funding-trump-congress-republicans-c395a434f47fa41a7131369847091910

House passes $70B bill to fund immigration enforcement for 3 years

House Republicans have passed a nearly $70 billion bill to fund immigration enforcement agencies for the next three years and the rest of President Donald Trump's term in office. The bill now goes to Trump to be signed into law. Democrats oppose the measure,with Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries saying the money would further fund Trump's “violent mass deportation machine.” Meanwhile, Republicans said they were fulfilling their duty to safeguard the nation and support the men and women charged with enforcing the law. The funding comes on top of the nearly $140 billion that the Republican-controlled Congress gave ICE and Customs and Border Protection last year as part of Trump’s massive tax and spending cuts bill.

NEW: Uranium Mining Permit Hearing in Black Hills Halted

Uranium Mining Permit Hearing in Black Hills Halted - UNICORN RIOT

A uranium mining permit hearing in the Black Hills of South Dakota was abruptly halted after opponents filed a federal lawsuit alleging that the state violated their due process during a hearing near a sacred site. Opponents, who are all Lakota, allege that the state did not provide translation services in their language during some moments during the hearing, which they say does not allow some to fully understand and participate in the proceedings. The South Dakota Board of Minerals and Environment adjourned the hearing indefinitely after the lawsuit was filed and have not yet scheduled a hearing on the project. A new state law signed in March requires the state to provide translator services regardless of one’s language to all contested hearings, but that law doesn’t take effect until July 1, 2026.

I wrote CookieMunger a while ago to just fuck with any site that wanted to blast cookies onto passing browsers.

With things like SignalTrace, I'm wondering if I can grab an esp32 and just blast nonsense to screw with the data collection.

You're being an open collector in a public space, I am under no obligation to feed you only accurate information, and for $10 other folk can play too.

Please share! 🎉🎉🎉

This campaign is for Technofascism Survival Guide, the book that I'm publishing in a couple of weeks or so.

It's timely because of shit like this: Palantir, OpenAI, and the entire "AI industry" collaborating with the US government for technofascism.

My book is full of advice for good, ordinary people. There are lawful ways that you can protect yourself.

I know it looks like my campaign raised a lot, but that's a cumulative total since January.

I need your late pledges to pay my rent.
