just around the corner for the rest of us - China: real life Big Brother ("1984") digital dictatorship - [MINISTRY]

Folks, this is getting down to the wire. I am not aware of any silver bullets to forestall or stop 1984 - quite likely Google's spearhead in China shall be transplanted at "an appropriate moment" into 'the West' - forewarned is as close to forearmed perhaps, yet civil disobedience - i.e. conscientious objection - is going to be required big time from the sounds of the following China reality today: Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2018 09:56:14 +1000 (AEST) Subject: China - real life Big Brother ("1984") digital dictatorship http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2018-09-18/china-social-credit-a-model-citize… Naive "good" citizen Dandan says “If, as our government says, every corner of public space is installed with cameras, I’ll feel safe.” OMG! Meanwhile, Liu Hu, who is "an investigative journalist who has uncovered corruption at the top levels of the Party and solved serial murder cases", has "lost his social credit when he was charged with a speech crime and now finds himself locked out of society due to his low score. It’s destroyed his career and isolated him, and he now fears for his family’s future. The social credit system has closed down his travel options and kept him under effective house arrest in his hometown of Chongqing. In an apartment above the streets of Chongqing city, Hu tries to use a phone app to book train tickets to Xi’an. The attempt is rejected. '[The app] says it fails to make a booking and my access to high-speed rail is legally restricted,' he explains. Hu’s social media accounts, where he published much of his investigative journalism, have also been shut down. Hu claims his combined Wechat and Weibo accounts had two million followers at their peak but are now censored." ...and of course the rest of our world is gradually heading the same way.

European values to be "applied" to Hungary - [MINISTRY] [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 20 Sep '18

20 Sep '18

So the legacy media pouts "European Values" to everyone it wishes to dominate and a few actual Europeans agree with the Dalai Llama that Europe ought not be turned into the United States of Niggerica. This of courses poses the question "what, exactly, these so called haloed 'European Values'?" Something to do with Lybia I guess... A sad yet mildly humorous look at what are the European Values: ** Disobedient Hungary: From the Soviet to the European Union https://russia-insider.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413… ------------------------------------------------------------ by Diane Johnstone The Unz Review (705 views) on Wed, Sep 19, 2018 CNN recently discovered a paradox. How was it possible, they asked, that in 1989, Viktor Orban, at the time a Western-acclaimed liberal opposition leader, was calling for Soviet troops to leave Hungary, and now that he is Prime Minister, he is cozying up to Vladimir Putin? For the same reason, dummy. Orban wanted his country to be independent then, and he wants it to be independent now. In 1989, Hungary was a satellite of the Soviet Union. Whatever Hungarians wanted, they had to follow directives from Moscow and adhere to Soviet communist ideology. Today, Hungary is ordered to follow directives from Brussels and adhere to the EU ideology, a k a “our common values”. But what exactly are those “common values”? ** Norway Didn’t Know Much About Libya, Helped Bomb It Into Chaos Anyway, State Report Finds https://russia-insider.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413… ------------------------------------------------------------ by RT (344 views) on Wed, Sep 19, 2018 A Norwegian state report says the officials “had very limited knowledge” of what was going on in Libya, but promptly decided to join the US-led intervention, turning the once thriving North African nation into a terrorist hotbed.

Cryptocurrency's definition and decentralization is intentional. Given the free thought required, it's not expected that many will grok the concepts early on. Thankfully decentralized cryptocurrencies will still be around for them when they do. > The cheapest and most effective attack on BitCoin or any other > system of its ilk is probably to infiltrate some of the tech-bro > sex parties and drop the tapes on the net. Decentralized cryptocurrencies don't care about your bedroom, or anything else. For a lot of naysayers that's probably a good thing, a) privacy coins will break links to their smut buys, and them self proclaimed Puritans buy a LOT of smut, b) a good portion of their world's economy will traverse such agnostics. > Bitcoin requires miners to sink several billions of dollars a > year into a startup that will never ever produce any thing of > value by design.
