Trying to protect everything from everyone all the time is a good way to drive yourself crazy. This is why we threat model. Here is EFF's Surveillance Self Defense guide to putting together your security plan, also known as threat modeling: ssd.eff.org/module/your-...

This is a good thread.

Ok, obviously fuck ice, but I’m getting pretty sick of snow now too

The double pardon really gives away the game. Adriana Camberos started her second round of fraud just weeks after her first pardon. She was charged, convicted, imprisoned…and pardoned again. Trump supporters are permitted unlimited crimes, while the rest of us can get beaten by the secret police.

😳 Isaiah Taylor of Valar Atomics—which somehow scored a DOE contract to build a nuclear reactor by July 4—claimed that “a person cld hold the spent nuclear fuel from [Valar’s] reactor in their hand & get the same amount of radiation as one would expect from a hospital CT scan.” About that… 1/

Many Canadian newsrooms cut back on foreign reporting over the last decade. It’s a tough business to be in when our market is constantly competing with US & UK media brands. Anyway, this is why it’s important. Eyes open.

Same people spouting about F Trudeau/Carney, Save Canada, patriotism etc

How does one teach students about distinguishing credible news sources from disreputable ones when they're all disreputable?

I’m sure they’re asking for these lists to make sure they’re protected from “hate speech”

Jesus. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...

ICE is using a Palantir tool that uses Medicaid and other government data to stalk people for arrest, 404 Media reports. This is exactly the kind of data privacy abuse that EFF has been warning about.

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

It's your last chance to make your voice heard in the #StarCitizen official annual player survey. It takes about 15 minutes, and you get a free hangar flair for participating. Survey period ends 15 January! Additional details and survey link are here- robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/com...

Heads up, people :(

ICE agents love to wave around paper that looks official. Most of it is a scam — administrative forms signed by ICE supervisors, not real judicial warrants signed by judges. Let's go through what that scam paper looks like versus a real judicial warrant.

ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating

Federal Agents Keep Invoking Killing of Renee Good to Threaten Protesters in Minnesota In apparent references to Renee Good, multiple agents have asked protesters: “Have y’all not learned from the past couple of days?” theintercept.com/2026/01/14/i...

Just the White House referencing “which way, western man” by William gayley Simpson (published by the National Alliance, the Neo Nazi group led by white nationalist William Luther Pierce of Turner Diaries fame) AND threatening Greenland in the same tweet.

Idk how you can sustain both a NATO war and a Protein War

The American owned Sun media chain are doing the propaganda work of quislings.

They're giving off big "Holy shit, these mopes are actually freakin' crazy" vibes.

The Toronto Sun, aka The Rebel lite

Danish and Greenland ministers just left the White House. It did not go well. I have a long discussion here of Trump's attempt to get Greenland and why it could lead to World War III. (Gifted.) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Polling during Biden's Presidency showed that Americans believed unemployment was at *all time highs* when it was actually at all time lows. The media comprehensively and systematically lied to Americans

The fact this is even happening is completely fucking insane

Yes, you live in that country now

"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”" "“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"

Sometimes they just tell us they are weaponizing the criminal justice system to push their political agenda.

Neighbors standing guard over churches so that parents can have secret meetings about how to keep daycares safe. This is what's happening in the Twin Cities right now.

These peaceful observers I spoke to had ICE show up at their homes in what they see as attempts at intimidation. ICE has somehow been accessing Minnesotans' private data in likely violation of state law, according to privacy advocates. share.google/J00lpWzPzOu2...

Report and block.

“Be not afraid.”

One basic pattern here is that DHS officials are engaging in violence simply because they are irritated at citizens protesting them. There is no plausible threat of violence here. He just wants to inflict pain, and believes there will be no penalty for doing so.

Meta shouldn’t have existed in any tangible form after Cambridge Analytica

I'm sick of the dumbest, most reactionary people on earth having all the power. "Eat less meat sometimes" isn't a "War on Protein" "There are other December holidays" isn't a "War on Christmas" "We're going to install a bike lane" isn't a "War on Cars"

The beatings will continue until morale improves, modern nazi edition

“A coup is happening in the United States.” Jason Stanley, author of How Fascism Works, argues that President Donald Trump is leading an unlawful takeover of the US government. From our friends at @revealnews.org:

Here’s the link to the Toronto Holocaust Museum’s classification of this song as a white nationalist anthem.

You don’t even need the Tronoto Holocaust Museum to tell you that this is a neo-Nazi anthem. Just listen to it. They might as well be goose-stepping.

"Hahaha" said Gandalf, hitting his weed pen for the seventeeth time that hour. "Fuck".

Three Members of Congress showed up to inspect the actions of federal officers in their state and the federal officers drew their weapons?

They haven’t cared for quite some time now

20 years ago today…they soff…I never see a bunch of defensemen soff like this.

Margaret Atwood, the author of “The Handmaid’s Tale” once wrote “men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will kill them”. I cannot help but think of this today.
