Apoyamos a Irán en esto.
Irán cierra de nuevo el estrecho de Ormuz por los ataques israelíes en Líbano.
En cambio, otros no son capaces ni de vetar a Israel en Eurovisión. Un genocidio no puede blanquearse, ni por sucias palabras del PP.

"When we say firefighter instead of fireman, we’re not just tweaking lexical units, (...) we’re challenging the assumption that one identity can stand in for all others. These changes signal something powerful: a willingness to see, to listen, and to evolve."

Capitalism is basically run by 2 industries:
- Big Oil
- Snake Oil

We publish a major Citizen Lab report on Webloc, an ad-based mass surveillance system that monitors the movements and personal characteristics of hundreds of millions people globally based on data obtained from mobile apps and digital advertising.

Customers include ICE, El Salvador and Hungary.

Our research shows that ad-based surveillance is now used by military, intelligence and law enforcement agencies down to local police in several countries.

Full report here:
https://citizenlab.ca/research/analysis-of-penlinks-ad-based-geolocation-surveillance-tech/

Alongside our report, Hungarian journalist Szabolcs Panyi publishes a VSquare investigation which reveals that Hungarian domestic intelligence has used Webloc since at least 2022, and still does today.

This is the first confirmation of the use of ad-based surveillance technology in Europe:

If you are a small business owner, please, please, for the love of whichever deity you care about, don't limit the entirety of your contact options to Facebook and Instagram.

I'm seeing this quite a bit lately, and it's shit.

Real talk

Israel causa más de 250 muertos en Líbano tras lanzar 160 bombas, su mayor oleada de la guerra
El genocidio sigue, pero participará en Eurovisión este país criminal.

One thing we see in the US is a continual arms race to bigger and bigger vehicles, partly due to this “safer than thou” mentality, partly machismo. But when it’s normalized, narrow streets start to be seen as the problem instead of the vehicles. The streets become one-way, parking is terrible, the roads are torn up by the extra weight.

And you never, ever see any cargo being carried.

@richlv @fj @reloadedhead

First and foremost: large vehicles are safer for the people in them, but much less safe for those around them. They crush smaller cars. Small children cannot be seen if close to the front. The headlights blind me when one of these is behind me in the road. They block sight lines. I think that wanting a big truck is basically anti-social.
This goes double for cybertrucks.

@fj I wish they’d be largely banned from American roads, too.

Keep these monstrosities off our roads 🙅‍♂️

"US carmakers have accused Brussels of keeping their largest pick-up trucks, including the Ford F-150, the Chevy Silverado and the Ram 1500, off European roads”

“We have heard with deep sorrow the words coming from Donald Trump warning that an entire civilization—the population of Iran—could face total destruction. These threats are truly unacceptable. The idea that millions of innocent men, women, and children could be condemned to death under the pretext of national security is an affront to human dignity and a blasphemy against the Creator of life."

If Trump does "kill an entire civilisation" tonight, it could do real damage to the long-term validity of the FIFA Peace Prize.
