He Did Not Have Enough Souls
There are many headlines this weekend about Navalny [1, 2]. That's good because I've tracked his name for years (every day) and he was totally 'off the radar' for many months already. It felt like he had been forgotten, neglected, discarded. His message remains relevant to still-living members of society and last week's news cycles were dominated by Jimmy Lai, whose predicament is overlapping but different (one is a politician/activist, the other a businessman/publisher). Aaron Swartz was a geek/activist and the nature of his persecution is well illuminated by how slop giants get treated for doing vastly worse things than him.
The world is becoming increasingly hostile towards ordinary members of society who speak or spread uncomfortable (to rich or "powerful" people) facts. They would go as far as "censorship by death", as a Techrights associate has put it. Some people hire literal assassins, others hire so-called "hired guns" and the goals are overlapping. The methods differ.
When society is being kept down and made passive/silent there is a growing thirst for information. Next week, before the next EPO strike, we plan to drop a 'bombshell'. There's already a clue.
Later this month and next month we'll also cover the efforts to muzzle the founder of GNU/Linux. It's still going on "behind the scenes" in 2026.
Techrights is run by many people who are hungry for truth; so the information will come out no matter what. We've meanwhile contacted 3 politicians and we also received encouraging words of gratitude. A lot of the subjects we cover here no other site dares touch. █
