“The NHS is using a US surveillance tech company owned by a billionaire Trump donor to process hundreds of datasets – some of which are being shared with private sector firms.”

Is this how we want it data to be used?

'Researchers expect that the extensive molecular and clinical data that they produce will help to uncover more about the mechanisms of Alzheimer’s. “Evidence so far points to tau as the initiator of Alzheimer’s symptoms, disabilities and eventually death,” says Boxer. “But this hypothesis needs to be tested in humans.”

@zleap @kaffando @mercedesallen no problem at all. Here's are some relevant source links in case I have overlooked some crucial aspect.

@zleap @kaffando @mercedesallen Hungary does a hell of a lot loss at the ECHR than the UK.

In 2021, the rate of finding against Hungary was 94% (the UK's rate is 58%). Admittedly, in the UK, this is hidden because the UK press massively focuses on rulings against the UK.

Given the UK Government’s deeply concerning and increasingly antidemocratic and authoritarian tendencies, concerned citizens need to better understand the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) – and know that it was driven by Britons in the aftermath of WWII.

Some people talk about the European Convention of Human Rights as if it was forced on the unwilling British by Europe but the reality may surprise you:

That the rest of Europe has completely ignored the fact the Hungary became a fascist dictatorship is really beyond me.

#LifeAfterTwitter

There are so few things any of us can do to change our broken society, I can’t understand why more of liberal twitter isn’t smitten by an opportunity to remake how news and knowledge propagates to our planet without threat of government, corporate, or tyrannical fuckery.

you ever feel like society is fundamentally designed for a kind of person you have nothing in common with?

Oops! The GOP’s transphobic boycott of Bud Light came to a screeching halt when someone remembered that the beer that wants to turn you into a girl is made by Anheuser-Busch, a major Republican donor.

No belief is so sacred to conservatives that they won't reverse it for money.

🚨BEWARE:
The #NoLabels group is actually run by MAGA billionaires trying to elect #TraitorTrump
They claim to be in the middle but their TRUE goal is to take votes away from Independents or conservatives who voted for Biden in 2020

Clarence Thomas, a federal jurist, broke federal law by failing to disclose the sale of his home to a billionaire.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Homeland Security Committee member, has legitimized leaks that endanger homeland security.

Extreme MAGA Republicans ethics at their best.
