----- Forwarded message from Gil May <gilmay97(a)gmail.com> ----- From: Gil May <gilmay97(a)gmail.com> To: reader(a)gmail.com Bcc: zen(a)freedbms.net Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2019 06:58:37 +1000 Subject: WHO admits polio outbreak in the Philippines caused by polio vaccines…outbreak “caused by vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2” WHO admits polio outbreak in the Philippines caused by polio vaccines… outbreak “caused by vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2” Wednesday, October 09, 2019 by: Mike Adams <https://www.naturalnews.com/author/healthranger> The polio vaccine has caused an escalating outbreak of polio in the Philippines, according to the World Health Organization and UNICEF, which issued a joint statement admitting the vaccine is causing polio. “WHO and UNICEF said in a joint statement the polio outbreak in the Philippines is concerning because it is caused by vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2,” writes the Associated Press <https://apnews.com/d954ca949bf34124bc980d4e2f732b16>. “The weakened virus used in vaccines replicates for a short time in children’s intestines and is excreted in their feces.” Polio vaccines are often cited as a success story proving that vaccines work to eliminate infectious disease. In truth, *nearly all the cases of polio in the modern world are caused by polio vaccines* themselves. Stated plainly, more cases of polio are caused by polio vaccines than from wild polio. *Polio vaccines are creating “super polio” strains that threaten humanity* Oral polio vaccines are actually “spawning virulent strains” of polioviruses, reports Children’s Health Defense <https://childrenshealthdefense.org/news/childrens-health/polio-vaccination-…> : *The alarming surge in vaccine-derived polio cases presents vaccine planners with a “quandary” or “conundrum”—because “The very tool you are using for [polio] eradication is causing the problem.” …Vaccine researchers have long known that these OPV-derived viruses can themselves cause polio, particularly when they get “loose in the environment.”* The Associated Press story admits that it has been over 25 years since polio in the Philippines was contracted from a “wild strain.” Since 1993, *all the cases of polio in the Philippines have been caused by polio vaccines*. Via AP: * [T]he last known case from a wild strain of the virus in the Philippines was in 1993…* *Associated Press admits vaccines kill children* The AP also admits that vaccines kill children: *The government’s immunization programs were marred in 2017 by a dengue fever vaccine made by French drugmaker Sanofi Pasteur which some Philippine officials linked to the deaths of at least three children. Duque and other Philippine health officials say they have worked to restore public trust in vaccines since then.* Even worse, as the AP admits, vaccines for dengue fever were actually found to *increase the risk of severe dengue infections*: *The government halted the dengue immunization drive after Sanofi said a study showed the vaccine may increase the risk of severe dengue infections. More than 830,000 children received the Dengvaxia vaccine under the campaign, which was launched in 2016 and halted in 2017. Sanofi officials said the Dengvaxia vaccine was safe and would reduce dengue infections if the vaccination drive continued.* *Vaccine “science” is a fraud* Modern vaccine “science” is a total fraud. Vaccines kill or maim millions of children around the world each year, yet any journalist who investigates the toxicity of vaccine ingredients or the science fraud behind vaccine propaganda is immediately banned from all major tech platforms, including Google, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Pinterest and even Vimeo. No facts about vaccines are allowed to be shared or discussed. The corrupt, criminally-operated vaccine industry controls the narrative across all tech giants — including Wikipedia — as well as Hollywood, universities and medical journals. The vaccine industry *murders children for profit*, then silences anyone who works to protect children from the scourge of dangerous immunizations carried out with toxic ingredients like aborted human fetal tissue, aluminum, mercury and chemical adjuvants. Watch this shocking video revealing the truth about aborted human fetal cells used in vaccines, totally admitted by the CDC and vaccine manufacturers: https://www.brighteon.com/034ebfcb-5bf8-4bcf-abf2-ee106a2eecba ----- End forwarded message -----

IQNets: user classes, network locality, quid pro quo, torrents at core, on gaming reputation
by Zenaan Harkness 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

The IQNets network is a friend to friend network. IQNets provides for links to, and routes through, unknown peers/nodes (ala bittorrent). IQNets is built on certain principles such as quid pro quo. For example, since primary network entry is via friends, friends are giving or sharing bandwidth between themselves. IQNets incentivizes sharing ([private request from Bill to John] "yo John, can you stay online for 20 minutes, I want to finish downloading last year's GoT.") Such requests may be broadcast to your group of friends, and possibly their friends, possibly anonymously (but verifiably as belonging to one of your friends if you previously established the appropriate cryptographic comms ring/net; Getting more friend nodes results in greater maximum up/download capacity for any one node at a time (given typically bursty nature of impatient youtube watchers and movie downloaders), thus motivating meat space connections. also, friends don't dominate friend's internet connections - friends have a far greater tendency/incentive, to play nice with one another, than completely anonymous "fly by night" contacts. Classes of nodes (from a node's perspective): - direct friend nodes with a meat space asserted trust level, which may be anywhere on the trust axis - both above and below zero - indirect "friend of friend" nodes and so on - "unknown" nodes, once you get beyond friends of friends of friends I guess - there is also every reason to utilize a bittorrent style DHT to make contact with "genuinely 'unknown' nodes" - DHT bootstrapping? also, read up on PEX Classes of locality: - legal jurisdiction locality - relevant magnitude is most likely "nation" or "state" - ISP locality - other IQNets users within my ISP - "roaming" IPv6 addresses? Is this a thing yet? - If this exists, it could be called dynamic network locality, and is probably important and useful to know about. - Certainly seizing dynamic connectivity by the horns is going to be useful for maximizing "ad hoc p2p wireless" within a crowd of people. Classes of quid pro quo: - network connectivity - storage/ content caching resources (design TODO) Storage metrics, just as with network metrics, are also maintained in order to establish fairness - quid pro quo. At its most basic, the internet is about making available, and downloading, content of one form or another, be it tweets, web pages, movies or phone calls; iow, the internet is a content distribution network. The internet as it was conceived has core design principles which are desirable for robustness and censorship resistance, such as peer to peer communications and flexible routing. In practice, the internet today falls somewhat short of its founding ideals due primarily to our governments (military) stalking us and snooping on us, and corporations (profit at all costs) interests. A bittorrent like protocol shall form the fundament of IQNets, with configurable settings which would impact possible levels of privacy and anonymity. In other words, the goal is high speed and relatively efficient network utilization for arbitrary, and arbitrarily large, content distribution, whilst maintaining configurable levels of (at least partially achievable) privacy and anonymity. I.e. "large file distribution" is a first class citizen in the IQNets network. With a shout out to cypherpunk Juan for suggesting the idea. IQNets - making the impossible possible. Framed in the terms of our fundamental human rights, IQNets reclaims for all end user "nodes", the role of primary authority; echos of GNS (GNU Name Server) design principles. On gaming reputation: - nodes self declare intentions or expectations such as bandwidth, uptime/ connectivity, the node's estimated/assumed monthly quota, suitable times for use of bandwidth (peak vs off peak), and more. - metrics are empirically measured of course and stored so that sane and safe routing and connection decisions can be made - friends share metrics (at least, on request) - nodes may collude to proclaim "great metrics" amongst themselves, which they broadcast to other nodes who ask, but ultimately, the empirical evidence that I observe, is the primary metrics data of relevance, followed by that shared with me by my 'friends', and finally, that which other nodes self declare

iqnets: opportunistic XYZ, e.g. "begin xmit"
by Zenaan Harkness 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

Every round trip between 2 peer nodes incurs 2x the average link latency. Google did substantial design and testing for various TCP HTTP(s) speedups. One of the concepts ISTR bandied about was opportunistic data sending - as long as the server is happy with the initial packet(s) sent by the client, and the client has included its initial request(s) into those initial packets, then the server begins to transmit data to the client, without waiting for ACKs of ACKs and further requests. The concept, at least as I understand it, is to, where possible, include initial data/ link set up/ etc requests, as early as feasible in the p2p link establishment packets, to minimize or eliminate round trips and thereby drastically reduce at least initial latency, and possibly also additional latency. For example think of a web page which contains hrefs to content, which the client only knows exist when it receives the base web page, so then of course must otherwise make a new request for the content identified - if the server knows what the client will need to ask for, it can automatically/ opportunistically send that data, without waiting for the obvious request. There may be peer node negotiation for different types of opportunism, e.g.: - on first ever new node contact, nodes may choose to auto (opportunisticly) hand out X cache undertaking/ promise - nodes may request "may I opportunisticly assume I may begin a "bulk fill" link with you, if I need (or am requested) to do so? - certain types of opportunism may be enabled by default, unless overridden by conf - other types of opportunism may only (by default) occur by nego - we ought be diligent in attempting to identify all possible types of opportunism that overlay nets may utilise/ provide for - we that we may opportunisticly optimize for as much opportunism as possible - everything possible to minimize number of round trips - algos which scale linearly (or better) with time, rather than b/w, and rather than exponentially in any unit A thought giving rise to the above is that notwithstanding our best efforts to stay "optimally" below link b/w and other limits, for many reasons any of these attempts will, at different times, fail. A link at a b/w of say 2MiB/s may oscillate or otherwise vary over time, up to 2MiB/s. When we are xmitting at say 1.95MiB/s, and phys nodes out of our control (such as an ISP's router) shape downwards, even temporarily, UDP packets get dropped. In many, most or all cases to start with, we will not have QoS at the (from our overlay net point of view) physical network layer. - This means we may have minimal to no control over which UDP packets get dropped. - This QoS issue is a fundamental area we need to expand our understanding of. - Longer term, iqnets shall be a motivator to end users, ISPs and GT-* folks, to push QoS down to the link layer. - When we do achieve internet wide QoS contracts at the network layer, a privacy issue (depending on your threat model) will be which QoS modes to utilize - e.g. you may be better off using "bulk fill", rather than "telephone audio" class QoS, in order to better hide your important phone call. - notwitstanding use cases and threat models, we don't fail to maximise provision for QoS, just because some use cases won't use it

Low speed, p2p, wireless as a secure alternative to SMS and Signal-like services.
by Steven Schear 02 Dec '19

02 Dec '19

By choosing a different physical transport means a different and, I maintain, better set of security tradeoffs become available. Unlike approaches which invariably depend on the Internet and heavily monitored commercial gateways, I propose using infrastructure-less or non-permissioned commercial, single-hop, relays. It's not the electromagnetic spectrum isn't also monitored but that the efficacy of that monitoring is, unlike the former environment, much more limited by physics, channel conditions, information theory and the proper application of tradecraft by possible targets. Both as a hobbyist and professional I've delved into the practicality of utilizing and building on commonly available, even consumer grade, Software Defined Signal Processing (SDSP, the use of the term SDR is verboten in my world due to its inherent regulatory implications) hardware and open source software. My investigations (some openly shared at Cypherpunk-oriented tech conferences) have led me to believe that even a moderate uptake of these SDSP technologies would effectively neutralize most or all SIGINT against parties who aren't already the subject of individual targeting. These technologies aren't some magical new creation but rather the integration and adoption of ideas already well studied and reported in academia but whose implementations are often not openly available for tailoring and testing, mostly due to unfounded fears of regulatory actions. To be continued...

BrBrBr: Corrupt Brazil Swats at Greenwald
by grarpamp 13 Nov '19

13 Nov '19

https://reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/c1glfa/after_exposing_corrupted_bra… https://www.commondreams.org/news/2019/06/14/after-exposing-corrupted-brazi… Greenwald and his colleagues published leaked chats from government officials that appear to show justice minister Sérgio Moro was involved in a plot to keep former Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, known as Lula, from entering the country's 2018 presidential race. The reporting has already caused controversy in Brazil and forced Moro to answer difficult questions from the public. In addition to physical harm, Greenwald, who is American but lived in Brazil for many years, says powerful members of the Brazilian government are also threatening to have him deported because of his journalism. Greenwald's husband, David Miranda, is a member of the Socialism and Liberty Party, and was elected to Brazil's National Congress last year. https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1139275872840667138 https://twitter.com/carlosjordy/status/1139249465062301699 A Congressman from Bolsonaro's party explicitly threatening me with arrest and/or deportation for reporting on the massive improprieties of Bolsonaro's Justice Minister and the prosecutors who imprisoned Lula. This is their prevailing mentality, laid out explicitly: Assisti agora a um vídeo do Glenn Greenwald debochando do PSL dizendo que o partido amarelou de convidá-lo na Comissão de Segurança. Vamos à verdade: 1 - Eu não estava lá, mas jamais teria deixado q fizessem convite. O convidado não é obrigado a responder perguntas, responde o que quer. Aquilo se tornaria um palco para a esquerda blindá-lo e ele falaria o que quisesse de forma distorcida. 2 - O ideal seria uma convocação, mas que, no caso dele, só seria possível numa CPI, o que eu e @filipebarrost já estamos providenciando coletando assinaturas. 3 - Independente do seu comparecimento ao Congresso, seu caso já está sendo investigado na justiça. Senhor @ggreenwald, não pense que você é um imortal acima do bem e do mal. Você praticou ativismo jornalístico através de um ato criminoso, o que lhe faz cúmplice. 4 - Respeite o País que o recebeu, você não pode afrontar nossas instituições e autoridades, cometendo crimes contra a segurança nacional e não imaginar que pode ser punido criminalmente e DEPORTADO. 5 - Se instaurarmos a CPI, não vale amarelar e recorrer ao STF impetrando HC para não comparecer.
