@demvoter @BNONews @_L1vY_ same thing happens in the Philippines, where Facebook not only dominates social media but also acts as “the free internet.” Few Filipinos ever hear of earthquakes or approaching typhoons. There is no Emergency Broadcast System there, but there is 24/7 brainwashing by the Catholic Church and the Duterte regime, who are partners in Facebook’s “experiment.”

Firefox rolls out Total Cookie Protection by default https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/firefox-rolls-out-total-cookie-protection-by-default-to-all-users-worldwide/ It creates a separate “cookie jar” for each website you visit. Instead of allowing trackers to link up your behavior on multiple sites, they just get to see behavior on individual sites.

Microsoft are still digitally signing malware kernel drivers, as they can't identify malware (this comes up over and over again).

If you’re using Substack, but the “racism is not going to moderated” response by the CEO rubs you the wrong way, consider migrating to Ghost for your blog & free or paid email newsletter. And if you want Substack Notes, you can install the early-access Fediverse plug-in for Ghost that I wrote last month which publishes your blog to Mastodon and the #Fediverse.

lil somehting i drew a few years back. wondering if i should expand on this

As Texas Gov Abbot prepares to pardon a white man & convicted murderer for killing a peaceful BLM protestor—Texas sentences a Black man to 70 years in prison for “spitting at police” to “make an example out of him.”😳

Systemic white supremacy is thriving in the GOP. Horrific.

I tried out SyntheticUsers, so you don't have to

Using AI as a replacement for interviewing actual users is a brilliant idea if you want to look like you made an effort, but are really looking to fill the page with superficial, stereotyped bullshit.

There's an ugly history behind child "marriage".

It's the legacy of American slavery and a holdover from the days when men owned women & their children, body & soul.

What surprised me is that evangelicals back then fought to end slavery.

Now, evangelicals fight to bring it back.
