Good on the #signal #president #meredithwhittaker for going against the #uk #government on wanting to #spy on #encrypted #messages https://fortune.com/2023/07/13/signal-pr.. *Really* the correct #decision for #signal to take.
Will be *extremely interesting* to see what comes of these 100k #whatsapp #messages #leaked from the #uk #government https://www.zerohedge.com/political/uk-p.. By bet is nothing... They probably #implicate *all* of the #politicians .
Jesus, the #uk #government was considering to ask the #uk #public to #exterminate all #cats in the entire #country https://www.zerohedge.com/political/uk-c.. Pretty radical! I could even see it being done!
#coinbase is shutting down its #services in #japan https://news.bitcoin.com/coinbase-shutti.. Some have speculated it's because of #japanese #regulation , but I suspect it is to do with #japanese #government #bonds . #coinbase could be dragged under by the #japanese #government and all the #execs get #jailed anyway.
Looks like #japan might be about to bring this whole #houseofcards down by losing control of their #government issued #bonds https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/jim-gr.. If they do they will experience complete and utter economic collapse, and likely trigger a *real* #global #recession .
Good #discussion by the #lotuseaters about how the #uk #government are increasingly enforcing themselves and their #ideology on the people: https://youtube.com/watch?v=MvJD7PRG81Q Apparently you are no longer allowed to be #selfsufficient .
#china 's #ccp have a *massive* #hidden #debt problem: https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/chin.. The central #government have pushed #localgovernment to take on #loans to pay for things since 2008, which will soon need to be repiad. The #interest on such a #loan will be insanely high, with them having to get another loan to just #repay the #interest .
Good, a #uk #hotel finally #rejects the #government 's 1 #million #request to #convert the #hotel for #asylum seekers: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/uk-h.. It's absolutely madening that our #country is becoming a massive #hotel for #economic #migrants - all from #safe #countries like #france !
At a time when #alamedaresearch was #valued at near a #billion #us #dollars , they were taking #us #government #ppp #loads in the hundreds of thousands: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/bankma.. This should have triggered some deeper digging.
Wait... So the $477 #million #us #dollar " #hack " at #ftx was actually the #bahamian #government using a #backdoor to #seize #assets https://www.marketwatch.com/story/suppos.. This sets the #us #sec and #bahama 's #sc on a direction collision course for control over the case. It is also #reported that there was a *second* real #hack that involved #malware , #database wipes and #money being pulled out. What a #shitshow .
Might be worth checking out #hidden #volumes on #linux - you know, just encase: https://shufflecake.net/ It's not as if we haven't been given reason to be #skeptical of #government #spying , etc.
Looks like #china 's #ccp have a half #trillion #dollar #property #market hole to fill: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/new-ch.. This is most definitely much more than any #budget their #government has. What they will try to do is #trcik #foreign #investors to #buying up their #debt , and they'll likely take it, because the #west 's #finances are run by #morons .
Holy shit, *all* #indian #internet #traffic is #monitored by their #government https://entrackr.com/2022/11/exclusive-i.. Worse still, when a site uses #cloudflare , the #government essentially sees #plaintext #http and can even #inject their own #content https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=335.. What's even more concerning is that other #governments are almost certainly also doing the same.
Turns out if you are seeing #scans from the #ip range 18.171.7.246 or 35.177.10.231, the it could be the #uk #government https://lowendbox.com/blog/getting-scans.. Whilst I like the #uk #government being more #proactive in #syber #security , it feels that #politics will lead to this also being used to #exploit #vulnerable #servers too. The #temptation will be too much for these people, knowing they could gain access to important services.
#italian #government standing up the #eu and #germany by #refusing #immigrants from #germany https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/i.. The joke is, after #brexit the #uk should be in the same #situation , but seems to keep accepting #illegal #immigration from #france , with the #french #navy escorting #migrants across the #channel . It's absolutely madness.
There is a massive #weakness in the #uk #conservative #government , with them #negotiating to hand over the #chagos #islands https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/n.. The #chagos #island people have zero method of #defense .
