A defence contractor has figured out how to track you without ever needing your name, face, or numberplate. The product, SignalTrace, instead listens to the devices you're carrying, and their sensor clips onto existing cameras your city has likely already got mounted. 1/12

UK telecoms just launched a kill switch for phones stolen from retail stores. Good. Phone theft in London is down 20% this year. The first use case is always good. But let's look at what the UK has built in 2026. Every device in the country is scanned for nudity by law. Signal: ordered to build a backdoor into encryption. Apple: sharing IMEI data with police, remotely disabling stolen iPhones globally. Telecoms: new kill switch for retail theft, activated before a device ever reaches a customer. Adults: must verify identity with a face scan, a passport, or a government ID to use social media. Children: banned from disappearing messages, VPNs, livestreaming, and romantic AI. Police: 40 facial recognition vans rolling out nationwide under a £140M AI program. now the telecom kill switch. each one of these individually is defensible. curbing phone theft: yes. protecting children online: yes. stop terrorists using encrypted apps: yes. verify ages to keep minors off adult platforms: yes. The UK now has: — a remote off switch for every phone — a real identity tied to every social media account — a scanner on every device — facial recognition on every high street — A backdoor is requested into every encrypted message built piece by piece. justified one news cycle at a time. What do you call it when you put all of them together?

Most people who care about privacy focus on their operating system. Linux over Windows. open source over proprietary. That's good. it's also not enough. Here's what's running below your OS on almost every Intel computer made since 2006: The Intel Management Engine is a separate processor inside your chipset running its own closed-source operating system called Minix 3. It has direct access to your RAM, storage, network, and peripherals. it runs at Ring -3 below your kernel, below your hypervisor, below everything your OS can see or control. it stays active even when your computer is powered off as long as it's plugged in. You cannot audit it. you cannot disable it through normal means. You cannot detect what it's doing from inside your OS. The EFF called it a security hazard in 2017. The Libreboot project said it has complete access to and control over your PC, including the ability to track keystrokes, capture screen images, and examine all running applications. Intel confirmed multiple vulnerabilities in ME in 2017 affecting 6th through 8th generation Core processors, Xeon, and Atom chips. Researchers demonstrated it could be used to inject rootkits remotely via the network interface. The only known method to fully disable it was discovered by Positive Technologies. They found a hidden bit in the firmware labeled 'HAP enable' part of an NSA program called High Assurance Platform. The NSA has a switch to disable Intel ME. you don't. if you want hardware that doesn't include ME: AMD processors do not have the same implementation. Purism builds laptops with ME neutralized. The Libreboot project has a list of hardware that can run without proprietary firmware. Your threat model determines how far down this rabbit hole you need to go. But you should know the rabbit hole exists.

Norway has announced strict new limits on the use of generative AI in schools. Starting in late August 2026, primary school students aged 6 to 13 (grades 1–7) will generally be prohibited from using generative AI tools in the classroom. Students aged 14 to 16 may use them only under direct teacher supervision. Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre emphasized that schools should prioritize teaching children to read, write, and master mathematics through traditional methods, rather than relying on AI shortcuts. Officials argue that early exposure to powerful AI tools risks undermining critical cognitive development by allowing students to bypass foundational learning steps. This policy builds on Norway’s successful 2024 restrictions on smartphones in schools, which studies link to improved grades, reduced bullying, and better student mental health. The government is also promoting greater use of physical books and offline learning materials. By drawing a clear line between technological tools and early childhood development, Norway has become one of the first Western countries to set firm legal boundaries on AI in education, potentially influencing global approaches.

👉 Riksdagen har nu klubbat igenom en statlig e-legitimation som börjar gälla 1 december 2026. De kallar det "säkerhet" och "modernisering". I verkligheten bygger de den tekniska grundvalen för en av de största massövervakningsreformerna i modern svensk historia, en digital infrastruktur där allt du gör kan kopplas till en och samma statliga identitet. Beslutet togs utan riktig omröstning. Inga namn på vilka ledamöter som röstade ja. Inget ansvar. Det här är inte ett litet ID-kort. Det är början på ett system där staten i framtiden kan stänga av dig från tjänster, resor, bankkonton och samhällsliv med ett knapptryck. Sverige är på väg in i ett teknokratiskt kontrollsamhälle och politikerna gör det tyst och utan att fråga folket.

Bruxelles vient de dater l'exécution de vos libertés individuelles : juillet 2027. La nouvelle réglementation AML n'est pas une simple mise à jour, c'est un protocole de surveillance absolue. Le couperet tombe pour tout le monde : -Interdiction stricte des paiements en espèces au-dessus de 10 000 €. -Bannissement total et définitif de tous les comptes crypto anonymes. -Obligation légale pour les plateformes de délister les Privacy Coins (Monero, Zcash). L'Europe est en train de transformer le continent en une prison financière à ciel ouvert où chaque centime devra être validé par un bureaucrate.

Scientists have identified a reversal of the long-standing Flynn effect—the roughly 200-year trend of rising average intelligence (measured via IQ and cognitive tests) across generations. For the first time in modern recorded history, Generation Z (born roughly 1997–2012) shows lower performance than previous generations in key cognitive domains, including attention, memory, literacy, numeracy, executive function, problem-solving, and general IQ—despite spending more years in formal education than ever before. Neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, PhD, MEd, testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation on January 15, 2026, highlighting this shift. In his written testimony, he stated that cognitive development in children across much of the developed world has stalled or reversed over the past two decades, with declines evident in international assessments (e.g., PISA, TIMSS) and other large-scale data starting around the mid-2000s and accelerating post-2010. Horvath attributes the primary driver not to reduced schooling, but to the widespread integration of digital screens and educational technology (EdTech) in classrooms. He argues that human brains evolved for deep, focused learning through face-to-face interaction and sustained attention, not fragmented skimming or constant task-switching encouraged by devices. Key points from his testimony include: - Teens now spend over half their waking hours on screens, with significant portions in school involving computers or tablets—often leading to off-task behavior and shallower processing. - Evidence from meta-analyses and national/international studies shows a consistent pattern: higher classroom screen exposure correlates with weaker outcomes in reading, math, science, and higher-order reasoning. - Digital tools may aid narrow, repetitive skill practice in controlled settings, but in core academic contexts, they tend to reduce depth of understanding, retention, and critical thinking. Horvath describes this as a "structural mismatch" between human cognition and how digital platforms are designed (to capture and fragment attention), warning that unchecked EdTech adoption risks long-term harm to workforce skills, innovation, and societal reasoning.

🚨🇪🇺 EU wants INTERNET BY PASSPORT - and plans to block VPNs to enforce it. “The new age verification system cannot be bypassed via VPN.” Their plan is totalitarian surveillance! 1984 is coming!

Die EU will ein Interneteintrittssystem per Pass einführen, um Kinder zu schützen, und plant, die Nutzung von VPNs zu bekämpfen: „Das neue Altersverifizierungssystem in der EU wird nicht über VPN-Zugänge umgangen werden können.“ Internetzensur nun auch in Europa.

Post a image that will scare the UK Government. I'll start:

We are pleased to announce that Proton VPN has passed its 5th annual 3rd-party audit, confirming our strict no-logs policy. Unlike some providers, we openly publish full no-logs reports for anyone to read. Claims should be investigated & verified, including our own. 1/2 👇

This censorship law is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The real goal is to enable the UK government to track everyone.

It’s important to know that the social media ban for under 16s is not a ban for under 16s. It is a ban on *selected* social media for EVERYONE. Until you identify yourself.

The irony of the week in Al: For years, Anthropic has been loudly calling for governments to have the power to restrict or block dangerous Al models. Dario Amodei reinforced this just days ago in his latest essay. And then? Just three days after launching Claude Fable 5 / Mythos 5, the US government did exactly that - issuing an Export Control directive that forced Anthropic to take both models offline worldwide. Anthropic is now calling it a "misunderstanding" and complaining about lack of transparency. Be careful what you wish for. If you spend years demanding a strong state as the necessary guardian of Al, you shouldn't be surprised when that state eventually starts with you. What do you think? Necessary wake-up call - or the start of a dangerous regulatory spiral?

They haven't even responded to me after 3 months, even though all I wanted them to do was correct a VAT ID error on their part.

Die USA schließen den Rest der Welt von der Nutzung leistungsfähiger US-KI-Modelle aus. Falls das kein Missverständnis sein sollte, dürften die internationalen Auswirkungen denen eines Nuklearschlag gleichen. In Europa wird am späten Montagvormittag eine Krisensitzung einberufen werden: "Man dürfe den USA nicht das Feld überlassen!" wird zum wiederholten Male gerufen werden... ...während man am Nachmittag über weitere Hürden und Einschränkungen für KI-Anbieter und Nutzer in Europa nachdenken wird.
