Ford's New Tech Will FORCE Cars To Slow Down

Ford's New Tech Will FORCE Cars To Slow Down https://share.newsbreak.com/16tbxmtz "Ford calls the tech Geofencing Limit Control. It relies on a few systems to function properly, at least in these early development stages. There is a bit of a prerequisite: this tech relies on driver-assist technology like automatic braking, and of course, adaptive cruise control to do its work." "It'll also need GPS, as the first part of the name implies. Geofencing tells the car when it's in a restricted area, like a school zone, and slows the vehicle to an appropriate speed. Geofencing tech has a number of applications, and now we can add this to the list. That means that rather than reading a traffic sign (like many of Ford's vehicles can do), it relies on the positioning received from the car's GPS to decide when your need for speed has been satiated."

Julian Assange, Rapist?
by revevilgod＠gmx.com 31 May '22

31 May '22

https://medium.com/@text2cloud/julian-assange-rapist-65a429b1a68a Ousted from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London earlier this month, Julian Assange is now being held in Belmarsh prison, having been arrested both for jumping bail way back in 2011 and because the U.S. has had an extradition warrant on him for nearly as long. Assange was quickly found guilty of the jumping bail charge and is currently awaiting both his sentencing for that charge and the much more serious May 2nd hearing on his extradition case. He could be extradited to the U.S. or, if Swedish authorities reopen the investigation of the rape allegation against Assange, he could be extradited to Sweden. What will the Swedish authorities do? 70 British parliamentarians have already signed a petition calling on Britain’s Home Secretary to extradite Assange to Sweden if the investigation of the rape allegation against him is reopened. In releasing their petition, the signatories say that they mean to show that they “stand with victims of sexual violence.” And Elisabeth Massi Fritz, the lawyer for Assange’s accuser, has tweeted that her legal team is going to do everything it can to have the investigation re-opened because “no rape victim should have to wait 9 years to see justice be served.” While Assange and his supporters have long claimed that he is the victim of a “honey trap,” (i.e. female agents working for unnamed sources used their seductive wiles to capture him in a compromising situation), this argument has never seemed credible to those who know the facts of the case. The truth of the matter is much more mundane: Assange had sex with two different women during his stay in Sweden and then lied to one of them about it. When the second woman learned that she had been lied to, she demanded that Assange get an HIV/STD test. He demured. And so the two women went to the police together to try a have Assange compelled to be tested. Had he been tested, he wouldn’t have found himself under investigation for four charges ranging from sexual assault to rape. There was no honey trap; there was only Assange’s arrogant refusal to establish, to the second woman’s satisfaction, that when he had unprotected sex with her, against her expressed wishes, he did not compromise her health in the process. This mundane explanation for the root cause of Assange’s troubles in Sweden doesn’t cancel out the fact that, at the time, the U.S. was eager to get Assange to America, where he could be prosecuted for the publication of state secrets, facilitating the theft of state documents, and conspiring with a member of the U.S. military to work against the intrests of the state. The events in Sweden occurred in 2010, years before now President Trump famously declared that he “loves WikiLeaks,” when the U.S. was trying to cut off Wikileaks’ access to the internet by whatever means necessary. That the U.S. was hotly pursuing Assange and that Assange got himself into trouble entirely of his own making in Sweden can both be true. The time-limit for charging Assange for three of the sexual assault allegations against him expired in August 2015, while he was still a resident of the Ecuadorian embassy. The most serious allegation, that Assange knowingly had unprotected sex with a woman against her expressed interest while she was half-asleep, will expire on August 17, 2020, some sixteen months from now. While there is much chest-thumping about “no one being above the law” among those who want to see Assange brought to justice for his actions in Sweden, the truth is that if Assange were anyone else, Sweden would not be concerned to extradite a man who had sex with a woman four times in a sixteen hour period, three times consensually, one time not (the third time). If Assange is extradited to Sweden, he is, I believe, likely to be convicted, but not because he was the victim of a honeytrap or because Sweden’s definition of rape is overly broad (something else Assange’s most ardent supporters claim); it will be because his own statements about what happened that night, the statement by the woman he was with, and the sworn statements of the women’s friends, family, and former boyfriend together establish that Assange had unprotected sex with the woman, against her wishes, lied about his sexual history, and then resisted getting tested to ease the woman’s mind about the possibility that she had contracted an STD as a result of the encounter. In seeking refuge in a honeytrap conspiracy, Assange and his supporters aim to exempt him from the consequences of his own, freely-chosen actions on the micro-level of sexual relations. However one may feel about Assange’s revolutionary actions on the international stage, his actions behind closed doors while he was in Sweden weren’t admirable, inspiring, or anti-hegemonic. They were criminal.

'A monster not a journalist': Mueller report shows Assange lied about Russian hacking
by professor rat 31 May '22

LOL-GOP Q-anon nutcase, Dana Rohrabacher was accompanied on a visit to see Asshat by a notorious Holocaust Denier Charles C. Johnson. " In August 2017, Johnson brokered and attended a meeting in London between GOP Rep. Dana Rohrabacher and Julian Assange to discuss a presidential pardon for Assange. " ( Wikipedia ) In 2017, Johnson posted on a Reddit Ask Me Anything "I do not and never have believed the six million figure" (referring to the number of Jewish people killed in the Holocaust) and "I agree with [Holocaust denier] David Cole about Auschwitz and the gas chambers not being real." That was then - this is now One of Elon Musk's top lieutenants has reportedly promised an infamous right-wing provocateur that his Twitter ban will be lifted "soon." That serial liar and viciously bigoted Neo-Nazi is . . . Charles C. Johnson.

Julian Assange’s Long History Of Alleged Anti-Semitism
by Revevilgod God 31 May '22

31 May '22

https://forward.com/news/422505/julian-assange-wikileaks-anti-semitism/ WikiLeaks director Julian Assange is currently in police custody in London awaiting possible extradition to the United States, after spending almost seven years inside the Ecuadorian embassy. He is being charged with conspiracy to commit computer intrusion in connection with Chelsea Manning’s leak of more than 750,000 American military and government documents. Assange is one of the most notorious and controversial global figures of the 21st century. But what many may not know is that he has long been dogged by allegations of anti-Semitism, despite the fact that some of his most loyal employees and public defenders are themselves Jewish. Employing a Holocaust denier For years, Wikileaks employed an anti-Semitic Holocaust denier who goes by the name Israel Shamir. Shamir has claimed that Jews perpetrate a mind control conspiracy and “asked God to kill, destroy, humiliate, exterminate, defame, starve, impale Christians, to usher in Divine Vengeance and to cover God’s mantle with blood of goyim.” Assange long denied that Shamir was on the WikiLeaks payroll, but a former WikiLeaks employee confirmed it in a 2013 tell-all article. A Jewish conspiracy? In 2011, Ian Hislop, the editor of the British magazine Private Eye – which combines Onion-like satire with investigative journalism – interviewed Assange about Shamir and other anti-Semitism issues that had begun to pop up around WikiLeaks. According to Hislop, Assange named a number of British journalists who were apparently part of a conspiracy against him – all of whom, Assange allegedly said, “are Jewish.” In fact, one of the people he listed was not Jewish, and when Hislop pointed this out, Assange reportedly replied, “forget the Jewish thing.” Assange claimed that he was misquoted by Hislop, who admitted that he took no notes of the conversation but stood by his reporting. (((Suspicious tweets))) Assange is widely believed to operate the @wikileaks Twitter account himself. In July 2016, the account published a series of tweets apparently mocking Jews who had appropriated the anti-Semitic “echoes” meme of putting parentheses around Jewish names. “Tribalist symbol for establishment climbers? Most of our critics have 3 (((brackets around their names))) & have black-rim glasses. Bizarre,” went one tweet. Many of the tweets were deleted later that day, and the Wikileaks account denied there was any anti-Semitic intention. This was not the first time the WikiLeaks account sent a tweet criticized for anti-Semitism: In 2015, the account blamed “the Jewish pro-censorship lobby” when a cartoonist for the French satire magazine Charlie Hebdo was put on trial for publishing anti-Semitic cartoons. Leaked messages A major leak of messages in 2018 from the WikiLeaks organization’s internal chat system showed Assange again bringing up the Jewish heritage of a critical journalist. Referring to Associated Press reporter Raphael Satter, Assange wrote in 2016, “He’s always ben a rat. But he’s jewish [sic] and engaged with the ((()))) issue.” He compared himself to Nazi victims The WikiLeaks website’s online shop in 2016 sold a t-shirt with the words “first they came for Assange” – an allusion to the famous Martin Niemoller poem about the Nazi Party’s rise to power. That year, Assange also refused to deny that the death of Seth Rich – a Democratic National Committee staffer who died in 2016 in what police believe was likely a botched robbery – may have been connected to WikiLeaks’ massive dump of DNC emails. ““We’re not saying that Seth Rich’s death necessarily is connected to our publications — that’s something that needs to be established,” Assange told Fox News. “(But) this organization will go after anyone who may have been involved in some kind of attempt to coerce or possibly, in this kill a potential source.” Rich was Jewish, and many of the conspiracy theories surrounding his death had anti-Semitic overtones.

Activist Publishes 11,000 Private DMs Between Wikileaks and Its Supporters
by Revevilgod God 31 May '22

31 May '22

https://www.vice.com/en/article/3kyv9n/activist-publishes-11000-wikileaks-t… Emma Best, a freedom of information activist, has published a large cache of Twitter direct messages between Wikileaks and some of its most fervent supporters, including ones showing antisemitic sentiment Wikileaks Wikileaks is possibly the most opaque transparency organization. The group, founded by Julian Assange, sometimes hides its true motives, and has not published any information about its own finances in years, despite amassing tens of millions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency. Now, an activist who has developed an adversarial relationship with the group has published over 11,000 Wikileaks Twitter direct messages. The idea was that the attitudes and behavior of WL [Wikileaks] behind closed doors is relevant, especially their coordination of PR, propaganda and troll ops through assets that are public supporters but not publicly known to take cues from WL,” Emma Best, the freedom of information activist, told Motherboard in a Twitter direct message. The DMs concern a particular group chat between the official Wikileaks account and several supporters. In the chat—dubbed “Wikileaks +10” due to number of participants—Wikileaks would coordinate smear campaigns against the group’s rivals, including journalists, according to the DMs. The official Wikileaks account, widely believed to be controlled by Assange, also pushed antisemitic and transphobic messages, according to the messages. Various outlets have reported on leaks from this group chat before, including The Intercept and The Daily Beast. But now anyone can scroll through the lightly redacted messages themselves. In an accompanying post, Best says the redactions were made to protect the privacy and personal information of “innocent, third parties.” “[2016-08-23 04:46:09] He’s always ben a rat. [2016-08-23 04:46:27] But he’s jewish and engaged with the ((()))) issue,” one part of the direct messages reads, referring to Raphael Satter, a journalist from the Associated Press who has shown how Wikileaks endangered innocent citizens in the group’s Saudi publications. Micah Lee, a technologist and journalist at The Intercept, and one of the reporters who worked on the publication’s earlier coverage of the DMs, told Motherboard that Best’s DM cache is the same as his. “When Emma contacted me saying the source sent her the same docs too, I took a hash of my original HTML file and it checked out, so she has a copy of the same file as me,” Lee told Motherboard in a Twitter direct message. A hash is a cryptographic fingerprint of a file; if someone has tampered the file at all, those hashes won’t match. Lee said his source provided an HTML file of the DMs, and then Lee logged into the Twitter account himself and downloaded the direct messages with an automated tool. “I confirmed that they were authentic (Twitter itself would have had to doctor them) and that the source didn't modify the content in the copy he gave me,” Lee told Motherboard. The official Wikileaks account did not respond to a request for comment. Best said “I think there are still more things in there to cover, both little details and as part of a larger investigation (i.e. how WikiLeaks spins things).”

DNCLeak: Five times WikiLeaks and Russia have crossed paths
by Revevilgod God 31 May '22

31 May '22

https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/dncleak-five-times-wikileaks-and… Since WikiLeaks started releasing the private emails of the Democratic National Committee, the digital activist group has been forced to fight accusations that it is trying to harm the Democratic Party and help Donald Trump get elected. The DNC hack and leaks comes as Trump himself is suspected of having ties to Russia. Because experts believe Russian hackers accessed the DNC documents, suspicions about a WikiLeaks-Russia connection flourish. Julian Assange speaks via video link from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. Julian Assange speaks via video link from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London Russia and WikiLeaks just keep crossing paths. In WikiLeaks' current form, the organisation has taken roles in disseminating information about geopolitical events at a critical time in which such information could shift events in the field. Instead of simply providing transparency, the information can be used to confuse or be wilfully misinterpreted – particularly if networks of bloggers, tweeters and meme generators recirculate it. WikiLeaks is promising more leaks about the DNC. Here are examples of times WikiLeaks and Russia have crossed paths. 1. Russian media Julian Assange on Russia-owned network RT. Julian Assange on Russia-owned network RT.CREDIT:CHRIS ZAPPONE Julian Assange's dealings with Russia date back at least as long as his short-lived show on the Russia Today network, one of Russia's foreign-language media outlets that mix hard news with conspiracy. During the show's short run, Assange himself predicted he would be called a "traitor" for "getting into bed with the Kremlin" and interviewing "terrible radicals from around the world". Since then he is a frequent topic or guest of the Russian-backed media. 2. Syria meeting The WikiLeaks Party, the group's political arm chaired by Assange, participated in a "solidarity meeting" with Russia's ally Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in 2013. Assange's father John Shipton participated in the event in Damascus. The purpose of the visit, which occurred after the WikiLeaks Party's support in an Australian federal election collapsed, was "to show solidarity with the Syrian people and their nation." On its website, WikiLeaks Party said it "was the first party in Australia to warn of the deadly consequences of any Western military intervention in Syria". Averting Western military action has been Russia's long-standing position. After the meeting generated some controversy, Julian Assange was at pains to distance himself from the decision by WikiLeaks Party to attend. 3. Edward Snowden WikiLeaks was "intimately involved" in Edward Snowden's evasion of Western authorities, after he leaked US National Security Agency intelligence documents to a select group of journalists in 2013. In fact, Assange dispatched a WikiLeaks team member, Sarah Harrison, to Hong Kong, where Snowden first revealed himself. Harrison "worked in Hong Kong as part of the WikiLeaks team that brokered a number of asylum offers for Snowden and negotiated his safe exit from Hong Kong". Assange later told the British media that "Snowden was well aware of the spin that would be put on it if he took asylum in Russia". Assange said Snowden preferred Latin America "but my advice was that he should take asylum in Russia despite the negative PR consequences", in part because it would be harder for him to be caught and returned to the US. 4. An anti-Western bias WikiLeaks' seeks "transparency" primarily from countries and organisations that Russia opposes. These often include US organisations (such as private intelligence group Stratfor), the International Monetary Fund or the EU. More to the point: there are few big leaks from authoritarian nations, except for arguably Saudi Arabia - which is also a Western ally. Recently, Assange has defended his apparent bias towards Russia by claiming to have published "2.5 million [documents] about Russia + Syria". Yet these same documents are from Western sources. A glance at the "leaks" show a preponderance of Western sources, and Turkey, a NATO member which has been at odds with Russia over the past year. Assange has a history with the US of course. He has remained at the embassy of Ecuador in London since 2012 to avoid being extradited to Sweden to answer questions about an alleged rape. Assange fears that if he exits the embassy, or travels to Sweden, he will ultimately be arrested and extradited to the US, where he could stand trial for his role in the Cablegate leaks and be given a long sentence such as that received by Chelsea Manning, the US soldier found guilty of giving the classified documents to WikiLeaks. Manning was sentenced to 35 years' jail in 2013. 5. Pro-Russia views WikiLeaks' Twitter account publishes pro-Russia material or even ideas and content directly from Russia. For example, in 2015, after Turkey shot down a Russian aircraft that passed briefly over its airspace, WikiLeaks tweeted Russia's version of the plane's flightpath.

'A monster not a journalist': Mueller report shows Assange lied about Russian hacking
by revevilgod＠gmx.com 31 May '22

31 May '22

https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/a-monster-not-a-journalist-muell… New York: Julian Assange fuelled conspiracy theories by falsely suggesting that a murdered Democratic party employee leaked damaging information about Hillary Clinton's campaign to WikiLeaks rather than Russian hackers, according to special counsel Robert Mueller's report. A veteran Democratic Party consultant said Mueller's report proved once and for all that Assange is "a monster, not a journalist" and that this should not be forgotten following his recent arrest in London. In July 2016 WikiLeaks published approximately 20,000 emails that had been stolen from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and later released a massive cache of emails that had been sent or received by Clinton's campaign manager John Podesta. Mueller's redacted report, released on Thursday local time, shows that Assange repeatedly suggested that Seth Rich, a 27-year old DNC employee who was murdered in Washington D.C in 2016, was the source of the leaks. In the days following Rich's death, right-wing conspiracy theories began circulating that he had been assassinated and that his murder was connected to the DNC email hack. The claim has been debunked by multiple fact checking sites and the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia said Rich's murder was the result of a bungled attempted robbery. "Beginning in the summer of 2016, Assange and WikiLeaks made a number of statements about Seth Rich, a former DNC staff member who was killed in July 2016," Mueller's report states in a section on Russian hacking. "The statements about Rich implied falsely that he had been the source of the stolen DNC emails. On August 9, 2016, the @WikiLeaks Twitter account posted: 'ANNOUNCE: WikiLeaks has decided to issue a US$20k reward for information leading to conviction for the murder ofDNC staffer Seth Rich.' Likewise, on August 25, 2016, Assange was asked in an interview, 'Why are you so interested in Seth Rich’s killer?' and responded, 'We’re very interested in anything that might be a threat to alleged Wikileaks sources.'" Later in the interview Assange said: "If there’s someone who’s potentially connected to our publication, and that person has been murdered in suspicious circumstances, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the two are connected. "But it is a very serious matter...that type of allegation is very serious, as it’s taken very seriously by us." Mueller's report shows that Assange went far further than WikiLeaks' usual practice of not revealing its sources. Instead he actively spread misinformation about the genesis of the Clinton leaks. Even after the US intelligence community publicly stated that Russia was behind the hacking operation, Assange continued to deny that Russian hackers were behind the leaks. He told Dana Rohrabacher, a former pro-Putin Republican congressman, that the hack was an "inside job" and claimed to have evidence that Russia was not behind the hacks. Brad Bauman, a progressive political consultant and former spokesperson for the Rich family, said: "Assange did untold damage to a grieving family in order to try and hide his work with Russian intelligence to destabilise American democracy. "In the process he misled hundreds of thousands of Americans who are just trying to make sense of our country in difficult and complicated times. Yesterday’s report proved he is a monster, not a journalist, and I hope that’s not lost in the ongoing debate around his recent arrest." Rich's brother Aaron said: "I hope that the people who pushed, fuelled, spread, ran headlines, articles, interviews, talk and opinion shows, or in any way used my family’s tragedy to advance their political agendas - despite our pleas that what they were saying was not based on any facts - will take responsibility for the unimaginable pain they have caused us." In his report Mueller also quotes private messages by Assange explaining his preference that Donald Trump to win the 2016 election rather than Hillary Clinton. Assange described Clinton as "a bright, well connected, sadisitic [sic] sociopath" in a November 2015 message. He also said Clinton would have "greater freedom" to start a war than a Republican president. Having been kicked out of the Ecuadorian embassy in London, Assange faces jail time for breaching UK bail laws. He may also be extradited to the US over allegations he conspired with former US military analyst Chelsea Manning to download classified material about the Iraq War.
