It’s circular. Facebook and other silicon valley corps intersect with the intelligence community and law enforcement, which has always been the enforcement and surveillance arm of wall st, their cooperation helps ensure their monopoly position. Silicon Valley companies are like pharmaceuticals and heavy arms manufacturing and aerospace, closely guarded as a national security concern and one of the last few monopoly rent collecting industries wall st has. Lots of direct law enforcement involvement in policing social media like snapchat just has a dept of cops already embedded
informants have been getting fucking WEIRD for years and years. an “informant” can mean a guy who just runs a violent drug dealing ring/cult like Charles Manson (who was released dozens and dozens of times despite having insane amts of drugs, firearms, and missing kids, the LAPD lost all evidence of raiding the spahn ranch and fired a guy claiming he misdated the warrant) or Gabriel Worfman (was doing something with a fake cop car, prison guards, and cigarette smuggling before he went on a rampage)
Facebook is letting all kinds of insane shit go down too with their combo of corrupt law enforcement collaboration and incompetent underpaid traumatized mods
So they’re just running whole GLADIO style terror operations and grooming pizza delivery guys to be shooters
More like a weak reason to just assume, like the other guy, this is exactly what it says on the tin (literally said “I checked the Microsoft article and this looks good!!”), when Win11 has been causing issues with VPNs, Win10 no longer allows you to actually fully cut off traffic with Mullvad, and Google has recently tried to introduce heavy pruning to connections based on how identifiable you are at a basic level of the internet lol?? I’m just assuming they’re going to mark some shit as a harmful DNS server that isn’t or make it harder to use a pihole idk. I’m not insisting what they’re doing is malicious no matter what, you just gave me a shitty reason lmao
I don’t think I need to point out China again but a lot of the shit decisions they make are often excused as “weakness” towards American imperialism when IMO this doesn’t exempt them from most of the stuff they could do but don’t because of brainworms.
I don’t think you need to point it out unless you want to just emphasize to me that you deal with geopolitics primarily through knee-jerk headline reactions and have a dim view of how other people judge the limitations of the diplomatic situation of peripheral countries.
This kind of language about people “going easy on them because of geopolitics” is typical of people who don’t think geopolitics are real.
Really tired of the “China’s geopolitics suck” meme when you get into it, half the time people are making insinuations about them betraying socialist movements or repeating RFA fake news about them trying to send people guns to murder Maoists.
Yes, I am aware of Norinco’s dealings with “Israel”, I have read all about the Kampuchea debacle and about the Chinese embassy in Chile barricading itself in following Pinochet’s coup instead of giving all the leftists asylum in China, the thing is I also actually judge the diplomatic situation in the context of Aukus-EU-Japan-RoK financial imperialism rather than treating it like a tennis match of goodest opinions judged by the eternal unchanging Marxist standard of goodestness (doesn’t exist if you can’t tell by my tone)
Oh well you can get lost on some paths without literally wandering through the brush around here or through taking side paths which have just kinda developed so I was just kinda thinking about it that way. That sounds like guys getting mad about a x (formerly known as twitter )thread like “even if i was doing a survivorman esque challenge got lost and had been missing for days i would rather see a bear than a stinky boy”
They’re just passing around verbal cudgels and they visibly delight in people taking them seriously. You can kind of skip to an issue that will make them lose their shit though, and the facade will drop. Zionists don’t like hearing anything that makes them feel less powerful or competent, they are deeply insecure and ready to book it across the Atlantic.
I feel the same, from knowledge and not having infinite disposable income, it’s like my opsec is capped, and tech-libertarians aren’t going to help us. They’re just as concerned with the Chinese as their own govt which is still raking in Silk Road plunder years and years down the line, and that’s all they use it for, illegal finances and drugs. Oh wait I forgot something important. Let’s move on. At the very least I want to skootch people on to solutions which aren’t a complete no-brainer like handing over all your internet traffic to the NSA directly, sending unencrypted text messages about unionizing that Starbucks can try to get a judge to pull. I don’t just drop security procedures but I recognize their insecurity on a higher level.
