Again, I recommend moving away from and being mindful of using of TikTok. Oracle, one of the most privacy-violating, pro-surveillance, genocide-supporting, pro-policing corporations to exist, is taking over co-ownership of TikTok.

A reminder, when enough of us boycott, it works, and can work quickly even. It is a spectacular example of the power of organizing. Yes, we can bring corporations to their ruin when we act together. Also, there is no need stop boycotting when the corporations are rotten at the core.

I DO NOT CONSENT to anyone capturing my image, audio, or video with Meta glasses. If you do so it is without my permission, a violation, and nonconsensual. While being in “public” may not be private, we should have a right to privacy. Learn more at liberationtoolbox.io

Genocide is committed by genociders. "Israel" has been committing the genocide of Palestinians with the full willful material and political support of the "United States" and others. We already knew this. But more importantly, they already knew this.

If collective liberation for all is truly in your heart, you will find that your destiny, by definition, aligns with this life purpose. This is regardless of your "work," as you will find that your body, mind, and spirit usher you toward your destiny.

※ The genocide of Indigenous people to establish the “United States” and “Israel” ※ HBCUs needing to be on lockdown because of racist threats ※ Attacking a flotilla bringing life-saving supplies and food to Gaza ※ Islamophobia’s impacts

Apple just announced their new product line today. We do not need the new iPhone Air. We need air.

war.gov This is now the official government site and name for what was known as the Department of Defense. The United States is a war corporation. Always.

Google signed a 6-month, $45 million contract in June to promote propaganda for the settler colonizer Israel. This is in addition to the billions already spent on tech toward the genocide. Reminder that no one needs to use Google products at all. De-Google Your LIfe series at liberationtoolbox.io

Land acknowledgments have been disappearing in the DEIA purge. While not a solution to Indigenous erasure and not actual LandBack, it certainly made many aware that the land itself is life and history, inextricable from Indigeneity.

Last year, I talked about the paused ICE contract with U.S.-acquired Israeli cyberespionage company, Paragon. The U.S. regime has just reactivated this contract.

May the ships be strong together. May the elements be in their favor. We are the waves together. We make liberation possible. And we can make liberation inevitable. May they reach the people of Gaza as they have already reached the people of the world. Free Palestine.

I recommend against using the tracking wearable, Oura. Consider downloading your data for yourself, and requesting the deletion of your data and account from Oura.

As I warned would happen back in January, with the reports of social security numbers uploaded by DOGE to an unsecured server, our data is exposed.

I love Kpop Demon Hunters because it is an incredible movie. I also love it because there are deep Korean ancestral feelings that get at the heart of what it means to be a Korean person that made it to today. So proud of my people and history. Goooooo Korea!

People that police murder: Ride-share drivers. Joggers. Children holding candy. People sleeping in their own bed. People sitting in their own yard. People standing on the sidewalk. People answering their phone. People opening their own door. Women who call for help.

To combat the active concealment, we must be active in our pursuit of revelation.

Facial and biometric recognition surveillance should be banned. Entirely and completely. Continuing to use technology that has, time and time again, surfaced its racist, ableist, and classist foundations is lethal for everyone.

When you understand NO ONE needs Big Tech, you are that much more free. No one needs Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, OpenAI, Palantir, Google, Meta, Spotify, Netflix, or any company that steals our data, breaches our privacy, and exploits the land and all living beings.

The other day I gave a workshop in Korean to a Kpop group, about anti-Blackness in Kpop, but also in culture and politics in general. I have been doing anti-oppression work with different Kpop groups for many years, and there is always so much work to do. 열심히 하자꾸나!

Protests, resistance, and actions have been happening every single day around the country, on land and sea. 
To blast the “did it even happen if it’s not on social media” origins that shaped these very platforms, yes it is happening, and not on these platforms.

Both the ex-president Yoon Suk Yeol and ex-First Lady Kim Keon Hee of South Korea are under arrest. Yoon was arrested earlier this year, for declaring martial law. Kim’s arrest warrant was just issued this week for stock manipulation, bribery, and more.

The increasing spread of “age verification” laws to access websites, is leading to many sites blocking access unless users allow themselves to be doxed by giving up your biometrics and/or other personal information.

Protect the wisdom protectors. The journalists, librarians, teachers, educators, documentarians, caretakers, creators, artists, elders, writers, history recorders, and archivists. Empire will always go after those that tell the truth. Protect the wisdom protectors. Be a wisdom protector.

May the wearers of keffiyehs be protected. May Palestinians again be able to fish, swim, and rest in their waters. May olive groves thrive once again on the land for generations.

Meta and Google, in league with period tracking app Flo, shared and violated Flo users’ data. It goes without saying, that not only is this illegal, but it breaches privacy, and puts people at profound risk.

Many devices, other than the obvious phones, can also transmit trackable signals. These can include smart ear buds, headphones, smart glasses, key fobs, location tags, watches, and health wearables. No need to carry everything with you everywhere. Don’t leave breadcrumbs when you don’t need to.

A helpful database to search California public records about all the violence by police so that we can abolish them. It is built by UC Berkeley and Stanford University, and is hosted by the SF Chronicle, LA Times, KQED, and Cal Matters. policerecords.kqed.org

Palestinians in Gaza are being violently starved by the governments and corporations of the countries in which we reside, in a continuing genocide. Those of us in the Imperial Core must rattle the very system we are within. End the siege. End the occupation. LandBack. End Empire. Free Palestine.

The United States is a failed experiment. The United States was a temporary experiment for a false “democracy” that turned into an experiment on all of its people. But the experiment has failed. And the experimenters are flailing. The test subjects have awoken and are fully aware.

Why could the world not listen when the first person suffered? The first flotilla left? When you saw the first image? Of starvation, bombs? Elders wailing, trees bulldozed, rubble and dust, small bodies in pieces, endless fleeing, families ended, tears, and death?

The United States Empire is in the business of genocides. It has built a world where killing and controlling people makes up its economy. For these genocides to end, the United States, as we know it, must also be ended. From its militarism to commerce to corporations to enforcement.

To accompany my recommendation against all Amazon Ring cameras, I put together a one-sheet template on how to talk with your neighbor, friend, or community member about getting rid of their Ring device, too. You can download, print, and share it at keepbeyond.com/optout

Starving Palestinians in Gaza in the ongoing genocide is an intentional decision made by every single complicit country, but especially the violent settler colonizers “Israel” and the “United States.”

We live in a world where many people actively do not want everyone to be free. We live in a world where people are being bombed, starved to death, abducted, flooded, burned, assaulted, controlled, and surveilled, to ensure that we cannot be free.

While Palantir has one of the largest contracts with the Department of Defense well over $1 billion, OpenAI, Google, xAI, and Anthropic have also just inked contracts of $200 million each.

Sandra Bland. Say her name. 10 years ago today, on July 13, 2015, 28 year old Sandra Bland was lynched in a prison cell in Texas, three days after state trooper Brian Encinia arrested her for an alleged minor traffic infraction. He was later charged with perjury about her arrest.

When mayors tell their cities to stay inside, schools go to online classes, work places are empty because workers can't risk showing up, neighbors have to hide each other, and agents abduct people who make sustenance possible, it should be absolutely clear that fascism is right now, right here.

If you see this pop up on a website, you should not use that website.

An update about a post I shared about a California farmworkers strike (Huelga para la Dignidad) yesterday, which I have since deleted. The United Farm Workers union is not involved with this, which makes me question whether this is actually being shared communally amongst the entire community.

Friends don’t let friends cross post to Facebook. If you care about people and their privacy, security, and safety, you should not cross post their posts, images, and images to Facebook. www.liberationtoolbox.io/friends-dont...

Some moves to make in the immediate, mid, and long term after this passing of the BBBill to protect each other. www.liberationtoolbox.io/some-moves-t...

The bill that will harm, disable, and kill millions has passed. People have been asking me, “What do we do?” This is where organizing brings me constantly forward. Oppression has an expiration date, liberation does not. www.liberationtoolbox.io/organizing-i...

After resisting Empire in the form of queer celebrations this month, there’s a bounce in our gait in NYC, because Zohran, because our people came through, because even as an enormous city, we can be a village.

A reminder that Pride was an uprising against police surveillance and violence, particularly of and against trans folks, sex workers, and People of the Global Majority. It was called Gay Liberation Day before it was called Pride. Let’s embrace our queer roots again.

Repeating my past recommendation to leave Spotify. I have recommended leaving them in the past for their exploitation of artists. Recently, Spotify CEO Daniel Ek invested $700 million in military AI company Helsing. And he is also now their chairman.

The reason that the United States Empire throws its resources toward indoctrinating people into believing that socialism and communism are nemeses, is not because the U.S. cares about people being oppressed. The U.S. does that itself and is at the forefront of oppressing people around the world.

Zohran!!! May he have the wind at his back. May he be ever beside and among the people. May we constantly hold his humanness. May he be protected from all who will go after him. May we fight so that he fights too. May we be reminded that big change is small change is big change.

I am against facial recognition when used by Empire, but when it’s used to help take Empire down, that’s a better use of it. Sharing this website by Kyle McDonald where you can upload a photo of a cop and identify them. Amazing URL too. FuckLAPD.com

Empire is losing the narrative and its grip on the masses. Empire always pairs physical war with media propaganda campaigns. And right now, the propaganda is propaganda-ing.
