Surveillance capitalism just wants to completely destroy all anonymity for data harvesting, propaganda, and control purposes.

…

Considering Epstein didn’t kill himself, and literally none of his hundreds/thousands of oligarch-customers have faced any consequences, this pedelephant in the room could very well be what chat control, photo scanning, etc is actually all about.

Parent takes photo of their baby/child in the rudey nudey > custom pedo-developed algorithm flags it as potential child porn > sends image/vid to gov server for “verification” > data gets “hacked” by pedos.

Same system could easily be adapted to stealing everyones private sex pics/vids, as the entire idea is that it’s performed by closed source applications in the background, without the user ever being aware.

And with the way CSAM works, governments could easily insert hashes of ANY files — say a whistleblower steals the un-redacted Epstein files — so OS’s/services would identify everyone who had downloaded that file(s), sending the alarm straight to the secret police’s surveillance system; maybe they could be silenced before they’ve had a chance to tell anyone.

Sure, mods will always be necessary when it comes to public/untrusted comms, but just like I don’t want my telco or email provider to decide which/when my TRUSTED contacts can contact me, the same is true for the rest of their speech.

You’re analogous to someone in 2013 arguing that the solution to facebooks crimes/corruption/censorship is to migrate to whatsapp…

Jumping from platform to platform, server to server each time is a bandaid solution which is not censorship resistant, especially against some totalitarian oppressor, and benefits hostile actors the most; fracturing groups into smaller and smaller bubbles. A real fix is a solution (e.g. protocol) that enables users to view a single person/entities/orgs comms regardless of what any middleman decides. The users trust should override anyone else’s.

It’s only hard to grasp because her and the entire politician class have been receiving donations bribes from Israel for decades.

What happens when the lunatics own the media and social media? Let them remove all evidence of genocide and corruption? Just accept the insanity and authoritarianism?

Although true, the existence of mods is an attack vector the criminally corrupt will always exploit, and every anti-authoritarian should not oppose these systems because they’re currently exploited by the corrupt.

Fascists are buying up all media and social media explicitly to silence opposition, control the narrative, and propagandize (the thing they claim everyone else is doing to them, while being the most blatantly criminal of perpetrators).

I can’t remember the specific protocol, but the one I saw which was most interesting relies on you subscribing to individuals, and building trust through that “social graph of trust”. It’s best to view it as someone owns a domain and you’re subscribing to their rss feed, except they’re identity is cryptographically verified, and the people they engage with have more weight in your feed than those that don’t… as opposed to whatever some technofascist algorithm, oligarch-beholden journalist or corrupt mod (who may very well be a paid operative) deems valuable or worthy of your attention; basically mimicking the way people build relationships in real life (without third party oversight).

It’s almost like he’s a criminally corrupt fascist who possesses zero morals, ethics, or virtues; like the vast majority of “leaders” who succeed under capitalism.

This is an explicit warning regarding would-be Epstein file whistleblowers.

The entire regime are treasonous domestic terrorists, so any whistleblower should already be well aware that any pre-existing protections are irrelevant (if the leak were not beneficial for the regime).

The only difference is that the mentally-ill fascist base will continue to support their pedo-fuhrer, who own all branches of government and the supreme court. They already support child rapists for fucks sake. There is no bottom. No crime they won’t commit. No crime they won’t defend.

It’s the same Christian fascist lobby groups financed by psychopathic oligarchs and their corporations… I guarantee it. This is analogous to their attacks on wikipedia, VPN’s, DNS, encryption, our private communication systems, and our education, legal, political, and judicial systems.

Their goal is to control or destroy all sources of information on the planet, especially tools that are anti-authoritarian and anti-fascist — like they have been doing in the USA, for decades — one at a time, using every tool at their disposal.

Web archiving tools document fascisms psychological warfare across the internet, so they obviously must be destroyed.

Why should any of us approve of making things easier for technofascists?

Trump wasn’t just a customer. He was Epstein’s partner and Mar-a-Lago was a hub for international sex trafficking, including child sex trafficking.

They’re not the Epstein files. They’re the Trump files.

They’re going all in on domestic chip manufacturing, and they are catching up much faster than armchair generals, and even actual generals, predicted.

Isn’t capitalism a blast?

If the American public, who by now is totally convinced that Trump if wholly against their interests

Mate. What rock are you living under? 40% of Americans blame the D’s for the shutdown as of last week. 40% of new yorkers voted for the corrupt narcissistic predator yesterday.

You seem to be making the same mistake as the average D did in 2016 and 2024; acting as though you aren’t up against a corrupt billion dollar fascist psychological warfare operation — run by psychopaths and narcissists — who own 90+% of the media, social media, and information that the majority consume. Get out of your algorithm bubble and check your expectations against the actual data, else you’ll be operating on false information, and reality will shatter your delusions eventually… check yourself before you wreck yourself!

Can you even imagine having standards greater than demented, parasitic, criminally corrupt, malignantly narcissistic, pathologically lying, mentally-ill child rapist?

That would be crazy…

Member when “no taxation without representation” was a thing people believed in?

Always have been

When it comes to criminally corrupt untouchables, actually murdering them is perfectly reasonable.

Obviously I’d prefer for them to rot in prison for life, but murdering a murderer to stop them from murder is completely justified, and I’m tired of everyone acting like it’s not.

Morals are like religion to the sociopathic political and capitalist class; just another tool you can use to lie, cheat, steal, control, and virtue signal.
