As we approach the third anniversary of Lucy_Wayland_(aardvark)'s_death, we want to consider the possibility that Debian contributed to the death. Let us look at the series of events and put the Coroner's report in the correct place in the timeline. The facts around the suicide_of_Frans_Pop_are_very_relevant_too. § 5 December 2018: Favoritism⠀➾ Lucy Wayland was a Senior Applications Engineer at ARM in Cambridge, UK. Wayland was placed in the lowest rank in Debian: the title Debian Contributor. Wayland notes the following competencies on her_LinkedIn_page: Software engineer with large amounts of experience of working in design, implementation and test of embedded systems, both in-unit and toolchains, especially in the safety-critical domain. Specialties: Assembler, C, C++ and Ada for embedded, real-time and safety-critical applications. Deep knowledge of fixed-point, floating-point, and associated DSP functionality. ARM NEON/Advanced SIMD. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Lucy Wayland, ARM, Debian, LinkedIn⦈ On 5 December 2018, the Debian leader's girlfriend, Molly de Blanc, who never did any technical work, was given_the_highest_rank,_Debian_Developer. How would Wayland and all the other women feel? When women see a promotion like that, they feel that their skills are being ignored and the only way to get ahead is to sleep with somebody. =============================================================================== § 17 December 2018: Wrecking Christmas⠀➾ Molly de Blanc couldn't do any technical work. She decided to use her new status to intimidate other people. On 17 December 2018 she was involved in the plot_that_secretly_expelled_Dr_Norbert_Preining. They began to blackmail him: he must bow down before them or they would tell everybody he was expelled. Dr Preining and other victims bravely spoke out publicly. For several weeks, Debian volunteers were exposed to hundreds of negative emails about Molly's blackmail recipes. § 24 December 2018: Wrecking Christmas 2.0⠀➾ On Christmas eve, the blackmailers sent a nasty email to thousands of people asserting that another volunteer is a pedophile. They used their Debian titles to send the defamation and make it look credible. Christmas is normally a season when organizations thank their volunteers and give them the time and space to relax. Debian stole this rest from people including Lucy Wayland. Wayland started 2019 stressed. § 30 January 2019: Wayland's death, the Coroner's report⠀➾ There is significant research showing that volunteers_who_are_exposed_to bullying_suffer_more_than_the_victims. In other words, Wayland, as a witness, may have suffered more psychological stress than Dr Preining and all_the_other blackmail_victims. Wayland and many other women may have also felt humiliated by the way Molly was promoted. These are the words of the coroner: Medical cause of death: * 1a) Multi-organ failure * 1b) Ischaemic hepatopathy and pulmonary fat embolism * 1c) Fall with rib, clavicular and comminuted humeral fracture * 2. Alcohol dependence syndrome How, when and where and for investigations where section 5 (2) of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009 applies, in what circumstances the deceased came by his or her death: From events precipitated by a fall downstairs at home under the influence of alcohol and suffering alcohol abuse dependence syndrome. The fall resulted in multiple fractures, causing substantial blood loss. The deceased was on the floor for a long time before calling for assistance, resulting in hypotensive shock and liver ischaemia. The deceased then suffered fat emboli in both lungs. Their origin could have been her liver or as a result of the numerous fractures or both. The injury to her liver and the pulmonary fat embolism led to multi-organ failure; on 30th January 2019; at Addenbrooke's Hospital. Conclusion of the Coroner as to the death: Accident. Original documents from the Cambridgeshire_and_Peterborough_Coroner_Service We should not assume that Lucy's alcoholism was an intrinsic fault. Research shows_that_stress,_such_as_the_Debian_lynchings_that_started_at_Christmas, contribute_to_alcoholism. Behavior is described as an interaction between genetic constitution and environmental influences. Of the environmental factors affecting an individual, one of the most potent is external stress. Although it generally is held that stress increases drinking, the articles in this issue clearly demonstrate the complexities of this simple construct. § 2 February 2019: Molly promotes bullying at FOSDEM⠀➾ FOSDEM 2019. Molly de Blanc displays_a_slide suggesting volunteers should be locked up if they don't obey the leader's girlfriend. This is the slide chosen by Molly: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Molly de Blanc, FOSDEM, Debian, volunteers, bars, jail, prison⦈ At this moment, Lucy Wayland's body was lying in the morgue. § 11 August 2019: Molly promotes bullying at FrOSCon⠀➾ Molly was invited to give a keynote speech at FrOSCon. She displayed a hand-drawn diagram showing three users pushing a developer. It looks_a_lot_like_an_assault. Bully/Molly de Blanc: Well we can use our collective power to push others § Conclusion⠀➾ Molly's slides did not appear spontaneously. These slides are a reflection of the Debian gangster culture. Molly is simply a symptom of the problem. We believe it is well within reason to suggest that a culture like this is consistent with stress, alcoholism and accidents. Lucy Wayland.

T We share another snippet of the Debian WIPO conspiracy today. The complaint singles out the blog post Coroner's_Report:_Lucy_Wayland_&_Debian_Abuse_Culture and tries to repudiate it with the comments: alleging that Debian’s Molly de Blanc’s and the Debian Project leadership’s purported abusive behaviour contributed to the death of a Debian Developer who had expressed suicidal feelings, but in truth she had been fully and lovingly supported by the Debian Community This is total farce. Let us look at the way the loving Debianists treated Sven Luther when he asked for help in 2006: Subject: PLEASE HELP ... Date: Sat, 25 Nov 2006 23:46:29 +0100 From: Sven Luther To: debian-private@lists.debian.org Hi all, This is, probably the last, of my desesperate calls for help. I will probably be leaving debian fully, because frankly, it is not possible for me to continue working on debian. This is the last chance for me to continue, in some future, but i know many of you will be happy to see me go, and have repeteadly told me so all over. I asked not much of you, and the repeated mails i sent all over, where a cry for help, to which some replied, but without being able to help all that much in the end, and now, even after all those months, the situation is still the same, or even worse, i have seen not a single sign of good faith from frans and the other engaged in this, and each week that passes, i am further destroyed by them. They took away my d-i svn commit access, they insulted me in bug reports, they continuously try to make nothing my contribution, they banned me from #debian-boot, they reverted fixes i uploaded because Frans was travelling all over the world and had no time and nobody else cared for almost a month, they now reject my uploads of the powerpc .udebs, which i did on frans request yesterday. Twice already i have sit at the keyboard crying, The key thing to note is that Sven Luther announced he was going to resign. For fifteen years now the fascists have been telling the world that Sven Luther was the first person expelled from Debian but the truth is he resigned. Debianism is a horrible smear on the reputation of Sven Luther. This is why independent sites like the Debian_Community_News are so vital. We stand with Sven Luther and Lucy Wayland, do you? 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Sven Luther, Debian, FOSDEM⦈ In their legal dossier, Debian admits that Lucy Wayland had expressed suicidal thoughts. Imagine how Lucy would feel reading through the emails savaging Sven's reputation. Would it give Lucy confidence or would it give her more anxiety? Who wouldn't reach for a very stiff drink after reading through these lynchings? 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Sven Luther, Debian, lynching⦈ People like Sven have been cast aside like rubbish while tens of thousands of dollars in "diversity" grants have been awarded to women who made no technical contribution ever.

playing_in_the_deep_dark_woods⠀⇛ There's a -- a thread? a theme? a tendency? pick whatever word works, maybe not one of these even - - in the indie/oldschool/etc ttrpg scene for putting adventures in or writing some setting material for what can best be described as The Deep Dark Woods. # ⚓ A_raven's_song⠀⇛ A raven flew across the wasted lands, ripe with traps and siren calls - who sang of sweet unknowns, 'let us know! let us know! - we want your soul to own!' - And when the night it came at last, a twinkling light he saw so far. Oh, how it spoke with white candour of a place to rest, of a place to chant - somewhere to land. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Self-Inflicted_Markdown_vs._Gemtext_Pain⠀⇛ My website and Gemini capsule have almost identical content, except for a couple of posts, which don’t fit one or the other. They are both served from the same domain after all, where only the protocol differs. # ⚓ combat_in_my_mud⠀⇛ I’ve been spending a lot of time playing with Evennia lately. The more I mess with it, the more I like it. Of course, I also find the more I do with it, the more of the stuff I’ve done already that could have been done more easily with other elements that already exist. I also haven’t been sticking very well to designing what I want it to do first. Turn based combat was one of the first things I created. Building off the Evennia tutorial content, I made a turn-based combat handling script that gets attached to the current room and executes a basic attack. It loops over participants, notifies them of their turn, and waits for input. Of course, it doesn’t really wait for input, it’s a finite state machine that checks any inputs every X seconds. The x being configurable (“configurable) is pretty loose, there’s a parameter, but it’s in the python code…) # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ everyday_life_of_hosting_WEB_1.0 [Ed: outsourced to Microsoft proprietary prison though]⠀⇛ # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ new_user!!!_woohoo!!⠀⇛ I like programming things, but I usually devolve into procrastination pretty fast.

Perhaps I am a weirdo for insisting on both having and using my numpad? Perhaps developers need to test on something other than MacBooks? Perhaps JavaScript was a mistake and the Web would be better without it? o ⚓ Juha-Matti Santala ☛ Good_enough_as_a_power_for_good⠀⇛ Aaron wrote about various aspects of “Good enough” that he considers negative consequences of adopting such mindset. In my entry here, I want to take a different perspective and look at it from the positive point of view as I believe it to have a lot of good in it. o ⚓ Jarrod Blundy ☛ PenPal_with_Valerie:_Climbing,_Crafts,_and_Wrap- up⠀⇛ Talking with Valerie opened my eyes to yet another way of living — a more nomadic and culturally curious one than the life I lead. I’m in awe of her tenacity to travel across the world to live in unfamiliar places. But, I suppose, places are unfamiliar for only so long. That’s one thing I got out of our conversation. o ⚓ Bitdefender ☛ Zambia_arrests_77_people_in_swoop_on_"scam"_call centre⠀⇛ According to Zambian authorities, Chinese-run Golden Top Support Services, based in an upmarket area of capital city Lusaka, recruited Zambian youths between the ages of 20-25, who believed they were being hired as call centre agents. In reality, the workers were tasked to engage in fraudulent conversations with mobile users around the world via WhatsApp, Telegram, and other online chatrooms using scripted dialogues designed to steal money from their unsuspecting victims. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ NASA_works_on_fix_for_Voyager_1's degraded_memory_chip⠀⇛ The team was able to use this readout, which contained the computer's code and variables, to ascertain that approximately 3 percent of the FDS memory had been corrupted. That corruption is preventing normal operation of the FDS, which is responsible for packaging the probe's engineering and science data before it gets passed to the Telemetry Modulation Unit (TMU), the radio transmitter and is sent back to Earth. o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ International Business Times ☛ 'Do_I_Pay_for_My_Daughter's Ear_Infection_or_Food':_Manager_Had_$34K_Student_Debt,_Now It's_Over_$500K⠀⇛ As of early 2023, Bolt's monthly payment was $5,698.30. She remarked, "That's basically almost what I make...There's no way I'll be able to make payments in my life. The kind of payments they want." Despite receiving multiple scholarships and grants, she found that they only covered some things. "There were times when I had to choose between getting money to pay for my daughter's ear infection or buying food for us," Bolt added. As a single parent, Bolt's only hope is that she ceases to exist before the student loans are due because she cannot afford to pay them and still sustain a household. The Education Data Initiative has highlighted the steady rise in US student loan balances, which reached $1.727 trillion in 2023 from $520 billion in 2006. Bolt's pain and dimming hope of repaying existing loans in a lifetime are becoming common across states. # ⚓ Crooked Timber ☛ Academic_Freedom,_State_Legislatures_and Public_Universities_(Wisconsin_edition)._—_Crooked_Timber⠀⇛ Gina’s post on Indiana’s DEI-related law came at a fortuitous time for me, because last week I participated in a panel about State Legislatures, Academic Freedom and Public Universities. The panelists were given about 6 minutes to present some prepared remarks’ and discussion ensued. As far as I could tell there was just one state legislator present, and one administrator; otherwise the audience was students, faculty, and members of the public. I did write out my remarks, but then I didn’t say exactly what I wrote, so below the fold is an attempt at a rough transcription of what I actually said: [...] # ⚓ Air Force Times ☛ Internet_subsidy_used_by_millions_of vets,_troops_set_to_expire_in_May⠀⇛ The Affordable Connectivity Program currently provides between $30 and $75 a month to cover [Internet] bills of more than 23 million households across the country, about half of whom are veterans and service members. For some participants, that’s enough to cover the full cost of high-speed [Internet] access at their homes. # ⚓ Sightline Media Group ☛ Will_the_Supreme_Court’s_GI_Bill ruling_mean_more_money_for_vets?⠀⇛ In the 7-2 ruling, justices said that veterans can use both the Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits and Montgomery GI Bill benefits to pay for college classes if they meet eligibility for both programs. # ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ The_Man_Who_Died_for_the_Liberal_Arts⠀⇛ In September 1942, during the Guadalcanal campaign, Phil wrote another letter, this one to his favorite Dartmouth professor, the sociologist George F. Theriault. “I’ve had lots of time to think out here,” he told Theriault, before adding, “A decent liberal arts education based on the Social Sciences is all a lot of us have left—and more and more becomes the only possible background on which to view all this”—the “all this” referring to the war and what it was about. He told Theriault, who was passionate about preserving the place of literature and the social sciences in Dartmouth’s wartime curriculum, that “no greater mistake could be made than to shunt all the fellows off into ‘war courses’ and neglect the fine, decent, really important things we had a chance to come to know.” o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Jeff Geerling ☛ AM_phasor_has_no_setting_for_'stun'⠀⇛ In the video, we get into all the equipment on the site, and talk on a high level about tower array design, transmitter room layout, grounding for the building and towers, and more—but we didn't dive too deep into the actual physics of the phasor. For that, I found this great little intro with some nice 1950's illustrations: Antenna Theory - Directivity. The idea of a 'phased array' of antennas was introduced in 1905 by Karl Ferdinand Braun, and the phasor installed in the WSDZ-AM transmitter site builds on that theory, in a relatively simple way. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Jason Fry ☛ More_People_Are_Seeing_The_Downsides_of Smartphones_|_Jason_Fry⠀⇛ I was teaching university students at a weekend away a month or so ago, and one of my points touched on the scientific studies done that show how silent smartphones in the same room as you leave you feeling less connected to those around you. Afterwards this sparked several conversations with others about how they're already doing things like having a smartphone-free day every week or putting their phone to bed early. # ⚓ Wouter Groeneveld ☛ Smartphone_Pervasiveness⠀⇛ Or should that be invasiveness? Persuasiveness? It’s no longer a distraction, it’s an addiction, it’s everywhere, and its aggressive promotion and passive acceptance is driving me crazy. I’m walking around on campus where students don’t look up while walking but down—desperately trying to catch every single glimpse of their backlit screen. Its usage in and around classrooms is detrimental to their learning. # ⚓ Tracy Durnell ☛ The_obscenity_of_women’s_pleasure⠀⇛ (And when companies like Meta say they don’t want politics discussed on their site? They mean they want us to roll over and take what’s coming to us. Talking about the theft of our rights is so uncouth — especially when it relates to sex. (Gasp!) It would be so unpleasant for their conservative users to have to see those whose rights they’re working to steal.) # ⚓ Harvard University ☛ Exercise_cuts_heart_disease_risk_in part_by_lowering_stress,_study_finds⠀⇛ In the study, which was led by investigators at Massachusetts General Hospital and published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, people with stress-related conditions such as depression experienced the most cardiovascular benefits from physical activity. # ⚓ USMC ☛ Senators_push_VA_to_fix_problems_with_vets’_toxic exposure_claims⠀⇛ A group of Senate Democrats is imploring Veterans Affairs officials to fix how they handle constrictive bronchiolitis and hypertension claims under new toxic exposure benefits legislation, saying that too many veterans are left without help due to confusing department rules. # ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ Teen_Suicides_Force_Meta,_Snap_to_Tackle_Rising Sextortion_Problem⠀⇛ In late January the chief executive officers of the world’s biggest platforms, including Meta, Snap and TikTok, were grilled during a congressional hearing about how their companies have endangered a generation of children. There were questions about addictive algorithms and youth suicide rates—and the sudden rise of sextortion. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ OJ_Simpson’s_Family_Refuses_to_Let_Scientists Examine_His_Brain_for_CTE⠀⇛ In an interview with the New York Post, Malcolm LaVergne, Simpson's longtime attorney and estate executor, said that following the infamous running back's death from cancer last week, he's fielded requests to study his brain for Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), the type of cranial injury suffered by athletes that can lead to violent behavioral changes. # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ One_Year_into_War,_Sudan_Wracked_by_World’s Largest_Displacement_and_Hunger_Crises⠀⇛ One year ago this week, a devastating conflict erupted in Sudan when a fragile alliance between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces collapsed. o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ India Times ☛ EU_cybersecurity_label:_Vote_on_EU cybersecurity_label_delayed_to_May⠀⇛ National cybersecurity experts have shelved a vote on a draft EU cybersecurity label allowing Amazon, Alphabet's Google and Microsoft to bid for highly sensitive EU cloud computing contracts to May, people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. The European Union wants to introduce a cybersecurity certification scheme (EUCS) to vouch for the cybersecurity of cloud services and help governments and companies pick a secure and trusted vendor for their cloud computing business. # ⚓ EDRI ☛ The_two_sides_of_web_scraping⠀⇛ Everyone wants a piece of OpenAI’s innovative generative AI pie. This has come at the expense of two dearly-valued core principles of privacy and digital rights civil society organisations : 1. Accountability for the spread of harmful or false information, 2. User control over personal data. # ⚓ Eric Walker ☛ Gmail_Overload_-_Because_of_Calendar_Invites and_Document_Shares_|_Eric_Walker⠀⇛ I was actually shocked that I found fairly quickly a filter I could create using the following: subject:("invitation" OR "accepted" OR "rejected" OR "updated" OR "canceled event" OR "declined" OR "proposed") when where calendar who organizer So I use that and dump them in a folder (still marked as unread but skipping the inbox) titled Meetings. # ⚓ BSDly ☛ That_grumpy_BSD_guy:_Fun_Facts_About_the_April_2024 Cisco_Attack_Data⠀⇛ Articles about recent or ongoing attacks are not uncommon, but this time I was delighted to see that the report included a link to the actual data, provided by Cisco subsidiary Talos Intelligence. When I downloaded the data approximately 09:15 CEST, the data consisted of [...] # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Landmark_UK_law_would_criminalize_making sexualized_deepfakes_even_if_they_aren't_shared⠀⇛ AI-generated deepfake pornography videos have been around for a while, so much so that the content has become a genre in the more prurient corners of the [Internet]. In 2018, a number of porn websites as well as message boards banned such videos, but it hasn’t stopped what has been called “involuntary pornography” being shared online. # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Linux_Foundation,_Intel_and_others_promote open-source_data_stacks_for_enterprise_generative_AI⠀⇛ Announced today, the new initiative is called the Open Platform for Enterprise AI or OPEA, and it’s focused on building open standards for the data infrastructure that’s needed to run enterprise AI applications. One of it’s main interests is a technique known as “retrieval augmented generation” or RAG, which OPEA says has the capacity to “unlock significant value from existing data repositories.” # ⚓ India Times ☛ telegram:_Telegram_platform_to_hit_1_billion users_within_year,_founder_Pavel_Durov_says⠀⇛ The Telegram messaging app, one of the most popular social media platforms in Ukraine and Russia, will likely cross 1 billion active monthly users within a year, its founder said in remarks published on Tuesday. In a rare interview, Pavel Durov told U.S. journalist Tucker Carlson that the Dubai-based free cloud-based app that allows users to send and receive messages, calls and other files, is spreading like a "forest fire". # ⚓ CRN ☛ Google_Layoffs_Hit_Finance,_Real_Estate_Divisions: Report⠀⇛ Google reportedly continues to conduct layoffs, this time letting go of employees in its finance and real estate units – but the company continues to invest in geographic growth hubs in Ireland, the U.S. and India. The layoffs have hit the Mountain View, Calif.- based cloud giant’s teams in treasury, business services, revenue cash operations and other areas, according to Business Insider. In a statement to CRN, a Google spokesperson said that the company is “simplifying our structures to give employees more opportunity to work on our most innovative and important advances and our biggest company priorities, while reducing bureaucracy and layers.” o § Security⠀➾ # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ EDRI ☛ Why_the_AI_Act_fails_to_protect_civic_space and_the_rule_of_la⠀⇛ For this reason, EDRi member the European Centre for Not-for-Profit Law (ECNL), Liberties and the European Civic Forum (ECF) closely monitored and contributed to the discussions on the EU’s Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), first proposed in 2021. From the beginning, we advocated for strong protections for fundamental rights and civic space and called on European policymakers to ensure that the AI Act is fully coherent with rule of law standards. The European Parliament approved the AI Act on 13 March 2024, thus marking the end of a three-year-long legislative process. Yet to come are guidelines and delegated acts to clarify the often vague requirements. In this article, we take stock of the extent to which fundamental rights, civic space and the rule of law will be safeguarded and provide an analysis of key AI Act provisions. # ⚓ EDRI ☛ Meta_must_stop_charging_for_people’s_right_to privacy⠀⇛ Ahead of a crucial opinion by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) – a grouping of the EU’s chief privacy regulators - on Meta’s plan to charge for privacy, the European Commission has opened an investigation that we hope will cast light on the unlawfulness of Meta’s so-called ‘Pay or Okay’ model, which has become the ‘talk of the town’ in Brussels. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Senate_Now_Considering_Section_702_Re-Up With_A_Dangerous_Amendment_Attached_To_It⠀⇛ Not only did the warrant requirement fail, but the reauthorization effort moved from the House to Senate with something much, much worse attached. "The Turner-Himes amendment – so named for its champions Representatives Mike Turner and Jim Himes – would permit federal law enforcement to also force “any other service provider” with access to communications equipment to hand over data. That means anyone with access to a wifi router, server or even phone – anyone from a landlord to a laundromat – could be required to help the government spy." This vastly expands the government’s collection authority under Section 702, moving on from the normal definition of “service providers” to cover places where communications are at rest, rather than being transmitted or received. Here’s how Marc Zwillinger, Steve Lane, and Jacob Sommer break down the wording of the Turner-Himes amendment: [...] # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Colorado_Bill_Aims_to_Protect Consumer_Brain_Data⠀⇛ On Wednesday, Governor Jared Polis of Colorado signed a bill that, for the first time in the United States, tries to ensure that such data remains truly private. The new law, which passed by a 61-to-1 vote in the Colorado House and a 34-to-0 vote in the Senate, expands the definition of “sensitive data” in the state’s current personal privacy law to include biological and “neural data” generated by the brain, the spinal cord and the network of nerves that relays messages throughout the body. “Everything that we are is within our mind,” said Jared Genser, general counsel and co- founder of the Neurorights Foundation, a science group that advocated the bill’s passage. “What we think and feel, and the ability to decode that from the human brain, couldn’t be any more intrusive or personal to us.” # ⚓ The Record ☛ House_votes_in_favor_of_curtailing government_transactions_with_data_brokers⠀⇛ The House passed a bill on Wednesday that would rein in the government’s ability to buy information about Americans from data brokers without a subpoena or warrant, with the vote coming in the face of intense backlash from Biden administration officials over national security concerns. The Fourth Amendment is Not for Sale Act, a controversial bid to stop federal agencies from purchasing so-called commercially available information (CAI), passed 219-199, with both parties split over the measure. # ⚓ Wired ☛ Big_Tech_Says_Spy_Bill_Turns_Its_Workers_Into Informants⠀⇛ The US Senate is poised to vote Thursday on legislation that would extend a global wiretap program authorized under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Passed by the House of Representatives last week, a provision contained in the bill—known as the Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act (RISAA)—threatens to significantly expand the scope of the spy program, helping the government to compel the assistance of whole new categories of businesses. Legal experts argue the provision could enable the government to conscript virtually anyone with access to facilities or equipment housing communications data, forcing “delivery personnel, cleaning contractors, and utilities providers,” among others, to assist US spies in acquiring access to Americans’ emails, phone calls, and text messages—so long as one side of the communication is foreign. # ⚓ 404 Media ☛ A_Spy_Site_Is_Scraping_Discord_and Selling_Users’_Messages⠀⇛ An online service is scraping Discord servers en masse, archiving and tracking users’ messages and activity across servers including what voice channels they join, and then selling access to that data for as little as $5. Called Spy Pet, the service’s creator says it scrapes more than ten thousand Discord servers, and besides selling access to anyone with cryptocurrency, is also offering the data for training AI models or to assist law enforcement agencies, according to its website. # ⚓ The Conversation ☛ A_new_wave_of_wearable_devices will_collect_a_mountain_on_information_on_us_–_we_need to_get_wise_about_the_privacy_implications⠀⇛ Policymakers have reacted by enforcing mechanisms to mitigate the risks inherent in tech companies storing and processing their citizens’ private information, such as health data. Wearable devices are now becoming a more significant element in this discussion due to their ability to collect continuous data, without the wearer necessarily being aware of it. Wearables such as smart watches gather an array of measurements on your wellbeing, such as sleep patterns, activity levels and heart fitness. # ⚓ Jacobin Magazine ☛ Democrats_Want_to_Expand_New_Spy Powers_That_Trump_Could_Use⠀⇛ This week could see the radical expansion of government surveillance that would be ripe for abuse by a future authoritarian leader. The twist? It’s Joe Biden and the Democratic establishment who want to pass it. # ⚓ EDRI ☛ Open_letter:_Mass_surveillance_and_undermining encryption_still_on_table_in_EU_Council⠀⇛ In the course of this EU legislative proposal, major concerns have been raised by thousands of experts across human rights law, cybersecurity, children’s (digital) rights, child protection hotlines, police forces, data protection and more. These concerns have been listened to by governments including of Germany, Poland, France, Austria, the Netherlands, Estonia and Finland, who have all reportedly taken a stand against various of the proposal’s major legal and technical flaws. However, we warn that these critical issues are still very much present in the new approach. # ⚓ RFA ☛ China's_spy_agency_encourages_people_to_see spies_everywhere⠀⇛ The Chinese authorities have typically employed a highly elastic definition of what constitutes a state secret, and national security charges are frequently leveled at journalists, rights lawyers and activists, often based on material they post online. "Comprehensive measures are needed in terms of raising awareness of safeguarding national security," the ministry, which included a top 10 list of public tip-offs, as well as details of "awards" handed out to people who made "significant contributions." The video warned that university teachers and students were targets for foreign infiltration, mirroring international allegations about China’s activities on overseas campuses. # ⚓ EFF ☛ About_Face_(Recognition)_|_EFFector_36.5 [Ed: "LISTEN ON YouTube", says the Google-bribed EFF, which talks about privacy while sending listeners to a mass surveillance platform.]⠀⇛ It can feel overwhelming to stay up to date, but we've got you covered with our EFFector newsletter!

Meanwhile, the cattle bicker on the internet about which rancher has the best and most moral cattle tag. “So it goes.” I suppose it’s a matter of taste, really. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ VOA News ☛ New_TikTok_Lite_app_raises_concerns_in_EU⠀⇛ TikTok has 24 hours to provide a risk assessment after the launch of its new app, TikTok Lite, in France and Spain, the European Commission said Wednesday, citing concerns over the app’s impact on children and users’ mental health. The slimmed down version of the TikTok app essentially pays users to watch videos and earn points that can be exchanged for rewards like vouchers or gift cards. To participate, users must be over the age of 18 and verify their age. They can watch up to one hour per day to gain rewards, which equates to $1.06 a day. The commission said TikTok owner ByteDance, based in China, should have done a risk assessment before the app was released. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ TikTok_Bill_to_Be_Bundled_With_Aid_to Ukraine_and_Israel,_House_Speaker_Indicates⠀⇛ While the new legislation would still require TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, to sell the app to owners that resolved national security concerns, it includes an option to extend the deadline for a sale to nine months from the original six months, according to text of the legislation released by House leadership. The president could extend the deadline by another 90 days if progress toward a sale was being made. House lawmakers are expected to vote Saturday on a package of legislation that includes the TikTok ban and other bills popular with Republicans, a maneuver intended to induce lawmakers to vote for the foreign aid. If the package passes, the measures will be sent as a single bill to the Senate, which could vote soon after. President Biden has said he’ll sign TikTok legislation into law if it reaches his desk. # ⚓ The Nation ☛ Where_Is_the_Leftist_Critique_of_Hamas?⠀⇛ Hamas is not that partner. According to its own ideology, Hamas wants an Islamic Palestinian state, run according to Sharia (Muslim religious law), “from the river to the sea.” While Hamas defines itself as a national movement struggling for Palestinian rights, it also is clearly a fundamentalist Islamic movement, the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood that was founded in Egypt. Therefore, it is not simply a Palestinian liberation movement but also a fundamentalist Islamic movement. Is that what the primarily secular American and international left wants? Don’t they believe in the importance of separation of church (religion) and state—a principle currently being challenged by the MAGA movement and evangelists in the United States? As it is by the settler movement here in Israel. For those who are not familiar with it, the original Hamas charter when the movement was founded in 1988 was clearly antisemitic, fundamentalist, and totally opposed to compromise with the State of Israel. It stated “that the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf consecrated for future Moslem generations until Judgment Day. It, or any part of it, should not be squandered: it, or any part of it, should not be given up.” It also stated, “The Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him salvation, has said: ‘The Day of Judgement will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews, when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.’” So it was clearly against the right of the State of Israel to exist alongside a Palestinian state, and it was also clearly antisemitic. The charter recognized the Palestine Liberation Organization as a brother organization in the struggle (Hamas is not a member) but rejected the PLO’s secular character and support for a democratic secular state, since it asserted that “we cannot give up the Islamic identity of Palestine.” # ⚓ [Old] Federation of American Scientists ☛ The_Covenant_Of The_Hamas_-_Main_Points⠀⇛ FAS Note: This is a translation of excerpts of the original 1988 charter of Hamas. A translation of the full document is here. # ⚓ Federation of American Scientists ☛ The_Covenant_Of_The Hamas⠀⇛ Article Thirteen [Peace] initiatives, the so-called peaceful solutions, and the international conferences to resolve the Palestinian problem, are all contrary to the beliefs of the Islamic Resistance Movement. For renouncing any part of Palestine means renouncing part of the religion; the nationalism of the Islamic Resistance Movement is part of its faith, the movement educates its members to adhere to its principles and to raise the banner of Allah over their homeland as they fight their Jihad: "Allah is the all-powerful, but most people are not aware." # ⚓ The Verge ☛ Report:_ByteDance_still_has_access_to_US_users’ TikTok_data_despite_Project_Texas⠀⇛ Since 2022, TikTok has undertaken a massive, expensive effort to silo off its US operations — and American users’ data — from its Chinese parent company, ByteDance. TikTok has described the corporate restructuring, which it dubbed Project Texas, as “an unprecedented initiative dedicated to making every American on TikTok feel safe, with confidence that their data is secure and the platform is free from outside influence.” Several former employees, however, told Fortune that Project Texas is instead “largely cosmetic” and that they and their colleagues continued to work closely with Beijing-based ByteDance executives after the plan’s implementation. # ⚓ RTL ☛ According_to_law:_Police_defend_saying_Sydney_church stabbing_was_'terrorism'⠀⇛ Australian police on Wednesday defended their decision to declare a 16-year-old's alleged stabbing of a bishop in a Sydney church a "terrorist" act as community leaders fretted over its impact. Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel was slashed on Monday during a live-streamed sermon in the Assyrian community's Christian church in western Sydney. # ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Trudeau_to_introduce_‘halal_mortgage’_for muslims_in_Canada,_bans_foreigners_from_buying_home_for_2 years⠀⇛ Although some Canadian financial institutions already offer Islamic law-compliant mortgages, none of the country's five major banks currently provide them. Experts believe, these alternative mortgages might not be entirely interest-free but could involve regular fees as substitutes for interest charges. # ⚓ The Hill ☛ Lawmakers:_China_‘killing’_US_with_fentanyl⠀⇛ “They incentivize companies to produce drugs and chemicals that are illegal in their country, just as long as they export it,” he continued. “So China is killing us with a weapon of mass destruction.

The need for fast, efficient, and quiet ways of moving people from A to B—despite fuel shortages, damaged roads, and ongoing battles—led many soldiers and civilians to take advantage of bicycles as transport. Troops in some areas became more nimble, refugees used bikes to carry their family and belongings to safety, air-raid wardens could cover more ground on two wheels, and many civilians had no other options available. Gathered below are a handful of images of some of the many ways people put bicycles to use during the Second World War. # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ CSX_Profit_Drops_10% Despite_Railroad_Delivering_3%_More_Freight_in_First Quarter⠀⇛ Hinrichs said he was pleased the railroad was able to deliver consistent customer service that helped it attract more business.

The State Water Resources Control Board voted unanimously Tuesday to place the Tulare Lake basin on “probationary” status for failing to adopt sufficient measures to address chronic overpumping. # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Plumbing_problem_at_Glen_Canyon_Dam brings_new_threat_to_Colorado_River_system⠀⇛ The structural problems at Glen Canyon Dam, first reported by the Arizona Daily Star, could complicate how federal officials manage the river in years to come when hydrologists and others predict Lake Powell will fall below current levels.

This time around, Xitter delayed DOJ’s access to the mere subscriber records — that is, records showing who owns the accounts in question — for two Xitter accounts for over two months (January 25 through March 29 of this year) based on a similar complaint: that before it complied, it should be able to tell the subjects of the criminal investigation about the request. # ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Apple_CEO_Tim_Cook's_big_announcement_for Indonesia:_‘Looking_into_building…’⠀⇛ Apple Inc will look into the possibility of building a manufacturing facility in Indonesia, its CEO said on Wednesday after meeting President Joko Widodo. # ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Elon_Musk's_India_visit:_Tesla_entry, meet_with_space_startups_and_more⠀⇛ Tesla CEO Elon Musk and PM Modi are likely to meet on April 22, following which the company's entry into India will be announced, it was reported.

Investors seemingly called the company's bluff, leading to shares sliding another 12 percent or so Tuesday morning, hovering just above $23 at press time. # ⚓ International Business Times ☛ Tesla_Layoff_Scandal: Workers_Unaware_Until_Badge_Scans_Deny_Them_Entry⠀⇛ However, according to five current or former workers who spoke to Business Insider, some individuals arrived at company facilities on Monday unaware they had been laid off. In a message to staff, Musk acknowledged the hardship, stating, "There is nothing I hate more, but it must be done." The downsizing will enable Tesla to be "lean, innovative and hungry for the next growth phase cycle," Musk noted in a company- wide memo, first reported by Elektrek. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Tesla_Staff_Didn’t_Know_They_Were_Laid_Off_Until They_Tried_to_Enter_the_Building⠀⇛ Getting laid off is bad enough, but finding out that you've been sacked by being denied entry to the building where you work is another thing entirely. According to multiple former and current Tesla workers who spoke to Business Insider, some employees sacked in Tesla's mass layoffs this week didn't learn about their terminations until they showed up to work Monday morning. # ⚓ Business Insider ☛ Some_Tesla_Workers_Get_Badge_Scan, Realize_Layoff⠀⇛ The cuts impacted engineers and production associates alike. At Tesla's factory in Sparks, Nevada, workers faced a roughly two-hour line to get into the facility on Monday morning as a result of badge checks, one worker said. At the factory, the security team was scanning the badges of workers coming out of the shuttles that ferry people between the factory and nearby parking lots, said two current Tesla workers who requested anonymity since they weren't authorized to speak about the matter. Typically, security guards inspect workers' badges at the site, but they don't usually scan them directly, the two workers said. On Monday morning, the officials picked out the workers who'd been laid off and sent them back in separate vans, the two workers said. # § Misinformation/Disinformation/Propaganda⠀➾ # ⚓ The Hindu ☛ Deepfake_video_of_Aamir_Khan_promoting_a political_party_goes_viral⠀⇛ The Mumbai Police have registered an FIR against an unidentified person in connection with a deepfake video of Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan in which he is purportedly seen promoting a political party, an official said.

And behind every number, there is a deeper story: the narratives being censored from pages, the overworked librarians and teachers, the authors whose work has been maligned, and the students who see their identities and their opportunities to learn about other experiences and histories swept from shelves. This report provides data, alongside a comprehensive narrative of the censorship crisis affecting public schools. It shows the nuance of the current moment and damage that occurs when stories—compassionate, reflective, educational, and entertaining—are restricted or removed on the basis of fear, intimidation, or bigotry. # ⚓ [Old] Reuters ☛ School_boards_get_death_threats_over_race, gender,_mask_policies⠀⇛ Local school officials across the United States are being inundated with threats of violence and other hostile messages from anonymous harassers nationwide, fueled by anger over culture-war issues.

The essays are Rushdie's way of "coming to grips with what happened to him last year when he was stabbed, thus responding to violence with art," as described by publisher Penguin Random House. Rushdie had already told US magazine The New Yorker in February 2023 that he was planning to write a book about the attack. After attempting to write the story as a novel, he decided instead on a memoir. o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ VOA News ☛ Georgia_presses_on_with_'foreign_agents'_bill opposed_by_EU⠀⇛ As many as 10,000 opponents of the bill gathered outside the parliament, sitting atop cars and buildings — a day after police used pepper spray to clear protesters away from part of the building. Several thousand protesters moved over to the government building, heavily guarded by police, to demand a meeting with Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze, the bill's principal backer. # ⚓ VOA News ☛ American_RFE/RL_reporter_marks_6_months_jailed in_Russia⠀⇛ An American journalist jailed in Russia will mark six months behind bars on Thursday over charges that press freedom groups have condemned as bogus and politically motivated. Alsu Kurmasheva, an editor at the Tatar-Bashkir Service of VOA’s sister outlet Radio Free Europe/ Radio Liberty, was arrested on October 18, 2023, and has been held in pretrial detention since then. # ⚓ CPJ ☛ Togo_expels_French_journalist_Thomas_Dietrich, suspends_foreign_accreditations⠀⇛ On Tuesday, a court in Togo’s capital Lomé sentenced Dietrich, a freelance reporter, to a six- month suspended prison sentence for illegal entry and banned him from Togolese territory. He was then taken to the country’s Benin border and expelled, according to the journalist. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ How_London_Became_a_‘Hot_Spot’_for_Threats Against_Iranian_Journalists⠀⇛ Iranian journalists in London have experienced death threats, intimidation and online abuse.

But that will be cold comfort to some in the British legal system who have argued U.S. prisons are so inherently cruel that sending Assange to America, even with such a guarantee, would still amount to an inhumane act. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Julian_Assange_extradition_edges_closer_after_US promises_not_to_seek_death_penalty⠀⇛ • In short: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange remains at risk of being extradited to the United States, where he faces 18 criminal charges. • A London court had asked the US for several guarantees about how the Australian would be treated in the US before it makes a final decision, and its legal team provided those on Tuesday. • What's next: Lawyers for the US and Assange will return to the Royal Courts of Justice, on The Strand, on May 20 to continue making representations, before a final decision is made at some point after that. # ⚓ WSWS ☛ Biden_administration_issues_“weasel_words” assurances_to_secure_Assange’s_extradition_-_World_Socialist Web_Site⠀⇛ Assange’s wife Stella was quick to point out the “blatant weasel words” of the first assurance, which only states that Assange can “seek to raise” First Amendment rights—it does not guarantee that he will receive them. Legally, this should bar extradition outright. Section 87 of the UK’s Extradition Act (2003) requires the courts to “decide whether the person’s extradition would be compatible with the Convention rights [European Convention on Human Rights] within the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998… If the judge decides the question… in the negative he must order the person’s discharge.” Article 10 of the Convention is the right to freedom of expression, or free speech. The same protection is enshrined in the US legal system in the form of the First Amendment. But the US Embassy’s letter leaves the door open to this right being denied to Assange at the say so of the US courts. # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Extradition_of_Julian_Assange_Edges_Closer as_U.S._Gives_Assurances_to_U.K._over_His_Rights⠀⇛ The possible extradition of imprisoned WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange to the United States has edged a step closer. On Tuesday, the Biden administration provided assurances to the British High Court that Assange would not face the death penalty and that his First Amendment rights would be protected if he were to be extradited from Britain, where he has been locked up for five years. Assange’s wife Stella slammed the U.S. response, saying, “The diplomatic note does nothing to relieve our family’s extreme distress about his future — his grim expectation of spending the rest of his life in isolation in U.S. prison for publishing award-winning journalism.” # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ EU_Warns_Georgia_That_'Foreign Agent'_Law_Will_Impact_Membership_Path⠀⇛ "The proposed legislation would limit the capacity of civil society and media organisations to operate freely, could limit freedom of expression and unfairly stigmatise organisations that deliver benefits to the citizens of Georgia," it said. # ⚓ [Repeat] EDRI ☛ Media_Literacy_Case_for_Educators: Empowering_Educators_for_the_Next_Digital_Decade⠀⇛ With a growing generation of teens relying on the [Internet] for learning, entertainment and socialising, it's crucial to cultivate their capacity to ask critical questions about how technology impacts their lives, their communities and the planet.

The reopening of Disneyland, which was shut down in March of last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ``is a monumental day for Anaheim,'' city spokesman Mike Lyster said.(Robert Gauthier / Los Angeles Times) Hefner, 28, belongs to Magic United, a bargaining unit of about 1,700 employees in the characters and parades departments at Anaheim’s Disneyland Resort.

They talk about these efforts and dreams openly at conferences, and their equipment vendors plainly lay out how ISPs can chop up internet service into all manner of fast lanes.” “These kinds of ISP-controlled fast lanes violate core net neutrality principles and would limit user choice, distort competition, hamper startups, and help cement platform dominance,” Professor van Schewick claims. # ⚓ Stanford University ☛ ISPs_can_charge_extra_for_fast_gaming under_FCC’s_Internet_rules,_critics_say⠀⇛ Stanford Law Professor Barbara van Schewick, who has consistently argued for stricter net neutrality rules, wrote in a blog post on Thursday that "harmful 5G fast lanes are coming." § Monopolies/Monopsonies⠀➾ o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Japan_turns_up_heat_on_Apple,_Google_with threat_of_fines⠀⇛ Apple, Google, and other Big Tech players could be fined 20 or even 30 percent of their sales in Japan if they break newly proposed regulations on abusive app store monopolies. This level of punishment is just at the draft stage, according to Nikkei, and if the proposed changes pass, today's current six percent fine for app store monopoly abuse will rise to 20 percent or more. o ⚓ [Old] Oxford University Press ☛ EU_Obligation_to_the_TRIPS Agreement:_EU_Microsoft_Decision_|_European_Journal_of International_Law⠀⇛ In Microsoft v. Commission, Microsoft was ordered by the European Court of First Instance (CFI) to license interface information to its competitors on reasonable terms and to supply a fully functioning version of Windows Personal Computer Operating System without Windows Media Player. Microsoft claimed that the remedies infringed the minimum standards of IP protection provided by the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). However, the CFI refused to examine the TRIPS provisions, on the basis that international agreements do not prevail over primary Community law, and in any case, the TRIPS agreement permits members to restrain anti-competitive abuse of IP rights. This article examines the issues that arise from this position: first, is the Microsoft decision TRIPS compliant? Secondly, to what extent is the EU bound to its obligations under the TRIPS Agreement? The article highlights the lack of a clear-cut hierarchy of norms and illustrates how EU law is placed within a multi-layered governance structure involving national law and international law. The article finds that the EU does not engage in consistent interpretation or application of the TRIPS provisions. o § Patents⠀➾ # § Kangaroo Courts⠀➾ # ⚓ Kluwer Patent Blog ☛ How_to_Avoid_Banana_Skins_on_the Path_towards_a_more_Unified_Patent_System [Ed: Unified Patent System is illegal and unconstitutional.

Charles Lyell was certainly not done with that work. That a particular recorded album can be the same ignores musicians who endlessly vary their tunes.

FRANCE 24's Observers team looked into these reports and found that several of the videos upon which these rumours seem to be based actually have nothing to do with Haiti – even though several real instances of cannibalism appear to have taken place in Haiti between 2019 and 2024. However, this gruesome practice remains extremely rare. But this hasn’t stopped conservative social control media accounts based in the United States and the Dominican Republic from widely spreading this rumour.
