  4. I sometimes use #torrent" files to catch episodes of TV programs I missed.

    After doing so this morning, I received an email from my ISP (Xfinity) telling me to delete a file (specified BY NAME) that someone downloaded from me while I was online.

    My ISP is now monitoring my Internet activity? #WTF?

  9. #China - Mass #homelessness is exposing the rot in Chinese society

    by Gordon G. Chang, opinion contributor - 08/16/26

    Excerpt: "This post-reform period, however, is seeing even more distressing signs of dislocation. Chinese people, for instance, are opting out of society with many choosing to flee, something evident with the unprecedented surge of Chinese nationals across America’s southern border during the Biden administration. Many of them were poor, but some were middle-class Chinese, evidently desperate to live in a free society.

    "Most Chinese, however, cannot leave. Street dwellers often have low social credit scores. A person’s score reflects all interactions with society, and those with low ones are not allowed to, among other things, maintain bank accounts, buy train tickets or obtain coveted jobs. As a result, they have no home."

  11. #FlockCameras Can Track Every Car in America. #Police Love Them. Citizens Don’t.

    In Texas, there’s one thing liberals and conservatives agree on: They don’t want cameras trained on their cars.

    By Fernando Alfonso III and Kashmir Hill
    Aug. 10, 2026

    Excerpt: "A #Texas officer used Flock’s cameras to track a woman across state lines who was suspected of self-administering an abortion. Officers across the country have abused their access to Flock’s cameras, including to track romantic partners, resulting in discipline and termination. #LosAngeles and #DaytonOH , among other cities, recently suspended their contracts with Flock to prevent immigration authorities from accessing data from the cameras. Dayton resorted to covering the cameras with trash bags. In cities like Houston, Oakland, Calif., and Grand Junction, Colo., residents have taken matters into their own hands, with police reports and surveillance footage documenting Flock cameras being cut down, splattered with paint and even shot.

    "Flock’s pitch is simple: It can help the police find stolen cars, locate wanted people and solve crimes. One license-plate reader led to the arrest in Florida of a man who had threatened a mass shooting in Louisiana; another helped police find the man eventually convicted in an assassination attempt against Donald J. Trump.

    "But as its cameras have spread, so has the opposition. Americans are accustomed to surveillance cameras. They put them on their doorbells and tolerate them on street corners, offices and restaurants. What sets Flock’s cameras apart is that they are connected, creating a vast, searchable national network — often surprising residents who didn’t realize their local governments had signed up for them and raising fears of #BigBrother style surveillance. And they are hard to miss once you start noticing them."

  13. Facial Recognition is spiralling out of control in the UK and there are no clear laws in place to protect our privacy

    Stop scanning us all with facial recognition Unlike CCTV, facial recognition doesn’t just record what you do, your face becomes a barcode in the same way as your fingerprint or your DNA. We must stop this. The Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, recently revealed her chilling vision of building a “panopticon” where “the eyes of the state can be on you at all times.” Your passport photo is now being searched by police facial recognition systems, even if you have done nothing wrong […]

  17. Ah, the #Olympics of #Orwellian oversight—where every nation is a gold medalist in invasion of privacy! 🎖️🥇 Democratic or authoritarian, they all want to prove who's best at wearing a tinfoil hat while peeking into yours. 🌍🕵️‍♂️ Because nothing says "freedom" like a global game of Big Brother, right? 🤦‍♂️📸
