Censorship: Facebook Pledges to Censor Election Downfall

https://www.ft.com/content/82ead3c3-774f-4b12-b7ed-e1c0bbf70261 https://thehill.com/policy/technology/517515-facebook-to-restrict-the-circu… " Facebook has said it will take aggressive and exceptional measures to "restrict the circulation of content" on its platform if November's presidential election descends into chaos or violent civic unrest. In an interview with the Financial Times, Nick Clegg, the company's head of global affairs, said it had drawn up plans for how to handle a range of outcomes, including widespread civic unrest or "the political dilemmas" of having in-person votes counted more rapidly than mail-in ballots, which will play a larger role in this election due to the coronavirus pandemic. "There are some break-glass options available to us if there really is an extremely chaotic and, worse still, violent set of circumstances," Mr Clegg said, though he stopped short of elaborating further on what measures were on the table. The proposed actions, which would probably go further than any previously taken by a US platform, come as the social media group is under increasing pressure to lay out how it plans to combat election-related misinformation, voter suppression and the incitement of violence on the November 3 election day and during the post-election period.

WarOnCrypto: Russia Banning TLS DoH DoT ESNI

23 Sep '20

https://www.zdnet.com/article/russia-wants-to-ban-the-use-of-secure-protoco… Same initiatives going on in most western countries, and worldwide... " The Russian government is working on updating its technology laws so it can ban the use of modern internet protocols that can hinder its surveillance and censorship capabilities. According to a copy of the proposed law amendments and an explanatory note, the ban targets internet protocols and technologies such as TLS 1.3, DoH, DoT, and ESNI. Moscow officials aren't looking to ban HTTPS and encrypted communications as a whole, as these are essential to modern-day financial transactions, communications, military, and critical infrastructure. Instead, the government wants to ban the use of internet protocols that hide "the name (identifier) of a web page" inside HTTPS traffic. "

WikiLeaks: Julian Assange Hearings - Day 9

" " Things became not merely dramatic in the Assange courtroom today, but spiteful and nasty. There were two real issues, the evidence and the procedure. On the evidence, there were stark details of the dreadful regime Assange will face in US jails if extradited. On the procedure, we saw behaviour from the prosecution QC that went well beyond normal cross examination and was a real attempt to denigrate and even humiliate the witness. I hope to prove that to you by a straightforward exposition of what happened today in court, after which I shall add further comment. " " When I first met Julian Assange more than ten years ago, I asked him why he had started WikiLeaks. He replied: “Transparency and accountability are moral issues that must be the essence of public life and journalism.” I had never heard a publisher or an editor invoke morality in this way. Assange believes that journalists are the agents of people, not power: that we, the people, have a right to know about the darkest secrets of those who claim to act in our name. If the powerful lie to us, we have the right to know. If they say one thing in private and the opposite in public, we have the right to know. If they conspire against us, as Bush and Blair did over Iraq, then pretend to be democrats, we have the right to know. It is this morality of purpose that so threatens the collusion of powers that want to plunge much of the world into war and wants to bury Julian alive " " Freedom of the press now rests with the honourable few: the exceptions, the dissidents on the internet who belong to no club, who are neither rich nor laden with Pulitzers, but produce fine, disobedient, moral journalism — those like Julian Assange. Meanwhile, it is our responsibility to stand by a true journalist whose sheer courage ought to be inspiration to all of us who still believe that freedom is possible. I salute him. " " This was really hard to sit through silently for me; goodness knows what it was like for Julian. The mainstream media are turning a blind eye. There were three reporters in the press gallery, one of them an intern and one representing the NUJ. Public access continues to be restricted and major NGOs, including Amnesty, PEN and Reporters Without Borders, continue to be excluded both physically and from watching online. It has taken me literally all night to write this up – it is now 8.54am – and I have to finish off and get back into court. The six of us allowed in the public gallery, incidentally, have to climb 132 steps to get there, several times a day. As you know, I have a very dodgy ticker; I am with Julian’s dad John who is 78; and another of us has a pacemaker. I do not in the least discount the gallant efforts of others when I explain that I feel obliged to write this up, and in this detail, because otherwise the vital basic facts of the most important trial this century, and how it is being conducted, would pass almost completely unknown to the public. If it were a genuine process, they would want people to see it, not completely minimise attendance both physically and online.

1984: YouTube to Shut Itself via ID and Credit Based Age Restrictions, Tracking, to Watch Any Videos, EU AMSD
by grarpamp 22 Sep '20

22 Sep '20

https://www.axios.com/youtube-age-restrictions-children-91db71e5-390d-4f07-… " YouTube said Tuesday that it has updated its technology to enable the tech giant to better enforce its age restriction policies. The company has been criticized and penalized for its policies and architecture that displayed harmful content to kids and violated children's data privacy. The company is announcing three new changes: It will begin using machine learning to automatically apply age restrictions to content on its platform around the world. It's using technology to identify age-restrictive content so that when viewers discover age-restricted videos embedded on most third-party websites, they will now be required to log in to watch those videos in order to verify their age. It will start to request that some users in Europe verify their age with a valid ID or credit card, in response to new EU regulations, like the Audiovisual Media Services Directive. "

David thought I was feeling very sad having an "imaginary friend" as my bestie and asked for being my Mirimir, a real Mirimir, giving me support and making me smile in sad moments... It was so unexpected and so sweet that I cried for hours that night and I still cry when I tell this story... He was feeling hurt and fragile, but wanted to protect me from sadness and loneliness... :') I do love my Mirimir, but I have other imaginary friends and also real friends.

Leaks: Leaking Tips re FinCEN Files Leaked (Not Really)
by grarpamp 22 Sep '20

22 Sep '20

> https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/topics/cl0514elpqet/fincen-files https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FinCEN_Files https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonleopold/fincen-files-financial-sc… https://www.icij.org/investigations/fincen-files/ Some analysts note that most such paper "crimes" are not actual violations of the NAP (theft, fraud), but are non-crimes of NAP compliant free open markets and of people and businesses justly avoiding theft by GovCorp. Of course BuzzFeed and ICIJ are censoring and witholding the actual dataset to suit their own tilted political and commercial purposes. If readily possible in risk model, never leak your load and only copy solely to news outlets, it will often be abused and even dropped against your intents. First, push the dataset to IPFS, Bittorrent, MegaUpload, I2P/Tor upload sites, etc. Be redundant like that. Sign your stuff. Include an intent and overview README. Then post the links on many public clearnet and darknet forums. Then send the links to dDoSecrets, Cryptome, WikiLeaks, etc. Then last to brick and mortar journos and online rags. Keep in mind that a good crypted leak and link will never be corrupted, sequestered or misappropriated... the journos and sites always are. Far better and longer guides exist on the darknets, seek them as needed. Examples... https://ipfs.io/ https://github.com/facebook/zstd https://gnupg.org/ https://github.com/FiloSottile/age https://ddosecrets.com/ https://wikileaks.org/ https://cryptome.org/
