I'm only showing you this so you can see what kind of #freedom of #speech is currently being defended in the US. You can praise the #government, but you can't criticize it. Unfortunately, brainwashed #MAGA fans can't see the obvious mistake.

At least 80 children dead in US/Israeli attack on Iran
The cost in innocent human lives when we go to war because the President is "not happy" with negotiations (and seeking another distration from the Epstein files.)
Each time a new privacy-invasive
feature like facial scanning is implemented, if people in majority comply and accept to use it, it will soon become normality, and other options will be marginalized or even removed entirely.
If each time a new privacy-invasive
feature is implemented people opted to refuse it, it would soon be discontinued.
Each individual opposition to privacy-invasive features matters.
It is an act of self-protection but,
perhaps even more importantly,
it is also an act of protest.
A protest against the normalization of mass surveillance and the loss of privacy rights.
The fact that there are other cameras around doesn't mean that more cameras or additional scanning is not making things even worse.
If we do not refuse,
if we do not fight for our privacy rights,
we will lose them all.

🍄 Keanu's Community Kitchen and Cafeteria
In a world where the gap between the wealthy and the impoverished often feels insurmountable, one man is making a stand for the basic human right of access to food. Keanu Reeves, the Hollywood actor known for his humble and generous spirit, has taken his philanthropy to a new level. His latest venture, a nationwide network of 24/7 free community kitchens, is nothing short of revolutionary. With an investment of $350 million, Reeves is working to ensure that no one in America goes hungry, regardless of their circumstances.

If you are wondering why Chat Control
is being brought back so relentlessly,
despite a clear and strong opposition from citizens, human rights advocates, and child protection organizations alike,
I recommend you read this enlightening article from 2023 (alas still relevant):
Spoiler: It's lobbyists who want lots of your tax money, and don't care about the children.

With 100,000 people in The Hague to demonstrate for peace in Gaza. All dressed in red, to tell the Dutch government it had crossed a red line in its failure to address genocide.
We passed the Peace Palace, housing the International Court of Justice. And the 18th century lawyer in front of the Dutch Supreme Court had received a 🍉 umbrella.

Did a web search on GDPR lawyers in a given city. Only one apparently relevant result led to a law office specializing in #GDPR. And that website was a tor-blocking #Cloudflare site.
Then I searched for a #humanRights lawyer.
1st hit: tor-hostile website
2nd hit: tor-reachable website but lawyer’s email address resolves to #Google.
I’m not joking… can’t make this stuff up. Society is drowning in #hypocrisy but no one sees it because most people don’t know how to look for it.
Perhaps we need tools to make it easy for normies to be more informed. Tools exist but they are for advanced users.
If the thing you’re making wouldn’t exist if people had to opt in instead of having to opt out, maybe the thing you’re making shouldn’t exist.
For this week's story, we'll share Michelle Pitcher's interview with #prison journalist Jason Walker, who bravely reports on conditions inside even though it puts his life at risk.

If you know anything about prison #journalism, you know both how courageous Jason is, and how hard Michelle had to work to get inside to report this story.

Prison Journalist Shows Why We Need a Free Press—Even Behind Bars - The Texas Observer

People have to make a decision. You can only choose one.
Do you want freedom / human autonomy?
Or do you want pretend safety?
Ben Franklin quote:
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Thomas Jefferson: "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery"

Amnesty International: "Facial recognition technology risks amplifying racist policing and threatens our right to protest. People should be able to go out about their daily lives without being tracked by facial recognition.
