THEY WANT US SILENT. We’re turning up the volume. 🔊
Corporate bullies are weaponising the legal system with predatory lawsuits (SLAPPs) to silence anyone speaking out for the public good.
Javier Bardem and Yasmin Finney have joined forces with the Greenpeace network to expose this playbook of intimidation.
“We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water & people buy it from us on a meter.”

As someone whose books were taken without permission to train OpenAI, I have a problem with this.
How can a company claim to own work it didn’t create & sell it back to us?
Finally, Citizens United comes to its logical conclusion.
A judge in Delaware, where many big U.S. companies are incorporated, ruled on Tuesday that a small town that allows corporations to vote in municipal elections was not violating the state's constitution.
You might think that Marco Rubio's family fled Cuba bc of Fidel Castro given all the propaganda
But his family fled during the rule of US backed dictator Batista
Again, you might think the same thing for the US politician Ted Cruz, he has said it, but in reality, again his family fled US backed dictator Batista
This pattern repeats
Like many US politicians, these people are just con-men who care nothing for the Cuban people or their rights to choose their own political and economic systems
Google I/O showed how the industry has seized upon LLMs as the "future" of software. But that couldn't be further from the truth! It is an intensification of the old way. The same features as before, only MORE and FASTER.

Ordinary drivers and communities should not be hit hardest while luxury emissions carry on as usual.
🚨FYI on what went down Mon in Newark, #NewJersey at the #Dilley Detention Center where #detainees are on a hunger strike to protest conditions.
NJ pols (all #democrats) showed up to support detainees and protesters, incl Gov #MikieSherrill - denied entry to Dilly - and #AndyKim who was there when #ICE, damn them, got aggressive.
Andy was trying to defuse the situation & they pepper sprayed him anyway! Let that sink in: ICE gassed a sitting US Senator. 😡

BWAHAHAHA! So true. I've been following the Inland Empire resisters' work and there is zero chance this douche keeps his seat, whatever he calls himself.
