The government isn't meant to search your things without a warrant. So they buy your data instead, and pretend that searching their own databases doesn't count. The 3rd-Party Doctrine needs to end. surveillanceaccountability.c…

Every parent wants to keep their kids safe. But doesn't want to hand over their photos to the nanny state. And no adult should have to scan their face just to talk to a friend. Enormous own goal for the UK Sure to make UK tech untouchable to the rest of the world. (Except, perhaps, to dictatorships.) And would slosh massive power to big tech companies. Finally, it wouldn't take much for the nudity filter to turn into a dissent filter. Well put by @signalapp

The data broker industry is a web of secret companies, investors, and government clients. I spoke with the activist behind surveillancewatch.io -- a fantastic website that watches the watchers. It's time to reveal who they really are.

The Fourth Amendment does not expire with inflation. It does not pause at the border. And it does not bend to whichever crisis the government invokes this decade. It’s time for Americans to know that the Bank Secrecy Act is really the Bank Surveillance Act.

LMAOO Age Verification Providers Association wants to convince everyone that akshually uploading your ID or face scan to access speech isn't an identity check 🤣🤣🤣 ok tell that to the thousands of people whose identities breached in the Discord age assurance vendor leak ❤️

BREAKING: NSO Group caught trying to hack across @WhatsApp. Again! In defiance of 🇺🇸US Courts. WhatsApp disrupted the Pegasus campaign & says it violates US Federal injunction they won against NSO. Asks Federal judge to hold NSO Group in contempt. Many implications... 1/

⚠️ A company called SignalTrace wants to expand license plate readers into cross-device surveillance infrastructure and link phones, AirPods, and smartwatches to your car’s movement. First they tracked your car. Now they want to track your "always-on" Bluetooth devices with License Plate Readers too. When does this madness end?

Hello all, On Friday I got news that I am to be transferred to a new institution. I will no longer be an inmate at FPC Morgantown. I am a little disappointed because this is a nice place (for a prison) and my wife can visit easily. For security reasons they do not tell you where you are going but I am hopeful that it won't be too far from home. I was told to be ready to "pack out" on Monday or Tuesday - it is very likely I will be leaving on Wednesday - so I spent the weekend getting ready to leave. It is amazing how much stuff you accrue in such a short period of time, it has been nearly 6 months since I arrived here. I expect they will call me down to "R&D" (receiving and discharge) where they will inspect my belongings to make sure there is no contraband and I am not taking anything unauthorized and pack them away in a box or two that they will ship to my new institution. As for "shipping" me, it is very likely that I will be flown out to the central transit prison hub in Oklahoma before I am then flown onward to wherever they are putting me. Yes, Con-air is a real thing. Needless to say going through transit (Oklahoma) is a real nightmare. You can be stuck there from 1 day to several weeks, you're around all kinds of prisoners of all different security levels. No one looks forward to Oklahoma - myself included. There is the slightest possibility of avoiding the transit nightmare. On Friday after I got word I submitted a formal request (a "cop out" in BOP lingo) to the CMC (case manager coordinator) here at the institution. I requested that they allow me to perform what is called a 'transfer furlough' which means instead of the BOP spending upwards of $10,000 to fly me across the country several times my wife can come pick me up and drop me off at my new location at my own cost. Transfer furloughs are rare of course, but the CMC didn't reject it outright, he promised to take it up the chain of command and let me know. So while I am not expecting it, there is the slightest glimmer of possibility that they allow it. Considering that I have had no incident reports, that i self surrendered, that I had no issue on pre-trial supervision for nearly 2 years, etc, all makes a compelling case that I can be trusted to self transfer. So here is to hoping for the best. I will let you know where I will be once I know where I will be. All the best, Keonne

Everything on the internet will require an ID check soon. And the government will monitor everything you do, pretending they don't need a warrant because you "voluntarily" gave your data and identity information away.

Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all. signal.org/blog/pdfs/2026-06…

A man in the audience had just been released from prison after 8 years. His crime? Donating money to a resistance movement. This is what's at stake when we give up our privacy rights without a fight.

When was the last time you paid with cash?

I just spent 2 weeks in Europe with activists from some of the world's most oppressive regimes. One question kept coming up: what are the red flags that people in "free" countries aren't seeing? Turns out there are many. youtu.be/PB87iMFlMC4 odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4…

California's Assembly voted 76 to 0 to advance a bill that'll create millions of new identity records, ID scans, and face checks, parked with private companies. The stated goal is keeping under-16s off social media. We all know what's really going on.
