Tomorrow a coalition of Hong Konger, Tibetan, Uyghur, Taiwanese, Chinese Dissident groups (quite a few who wouldn't usually come together) & other allies will stage a massive protest against the planned new embassy. It will be a hub for transnational repression Even gov't MPs are not in favour of it

I am a cybersecurity professional who gets consulted on travel policy and my professional opinion is that travel to the US is not currently worth the risk for most non-US persons

BTW, that's what motivated a lot of Hongkongers to go out onto the streets, etc. in 2019-2020. And motivate Hongkongers to keep on supporting the Yellow Economic Circle, etc. to this day.

Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.

Combine this with the news today of troops from Sweden and Germany, among others, heading to Greenland. Trump is making his move against NATO. I know it sounds lame, but all I can say is call your senators and representatives.

Powerful essay by @ositanwanevu.com. The MAGA "lust for mud" is a frontal assault on humanity, on everything that even tries to distinguish us from unthinking brutes. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Whenever I find out a colleague is using LLM to do literature searches and to "summarise" papers

I’ve decided to leave X/Twitter. Thank you to @senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social for her leadership and for continuing to educate the public about the harms enabled by the platform. You can still find me on Instagram @kimpateonthehill and on Bluesky @kpateonthehill.bsky.social

It will be parties run by people who admire Putin undermining the Western alliance structure that causes deterrence to fail, not clever Russian tactics. Nonpartisanship is only a virtue if there is a consensus on fundamental values. That consensus has been lost and so nonpartisan is no virtue. 12/

oh shit it's happening

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

as @adamgurri.liberalcurrents.com noted, the MAGA administration is fundamentally at war with basic professionalism and competence www.liberalcurrents.com/the-war-on-p...

The Minnesota Frost held a moment of silence pre game for Renee Nicole Good, who was killed by ICE agent Jonathan Ross Wednesday morning. A fan yells out “Get ICE out of our state” towards the end.

The ability to ask these questions as if they weren‘t stupid & dishonest has been a key aim of both the new world-wide right-wing movement and of the Kremlin. They want us to think there‘s no truth, only opinion; no morality, only power; that all choices are morally equivalent, & only tribe matters.

Scoop: The lone employee behind CISA's Pre-Ransomware Notification Initiative resigned on Friday rather than take a forced reassignment to FEMA. CISA says PRNI will continue, but sources said David Stern's loss will be a major setback for it. My story: www.cybersecuritydive.com/news/cisa-ra...

That's also why diaspora newsrooms like ours @thexylom.com, the only Asian American news outlet covering health, climate, and environment, need your support. Oftentimes, we are the only window for folks in our home countries — and the world — to access the unvarnished truth.

Let's just say that I'm resigned to the fact thay it's almost impossible for me to do the kind of data+accountability+solutions journalism without having someone knock at my parents' door had I returned to Hong Kong, and I'm really concerned that America is going down that same oppressive path.

Hongkongers by and large have stayed on Instagram and Threads. In the Chinese version of this statement issued by Ellie Yuen, a local journalism student with bylines in NBC, she alluded to "obvious and irresistible forces", a phrase often used in Mainland China to refer to threats from authorities

It appears that pretty much all Hong Kong-based newsfluencers, even those with international bylines or appearances, got a memo within the last 12 hours that they should shut up about the deadly fire, or else face consequences. Related: the city's "Patriots-only" legislature has elections Sunday

New Policy Analysis: Europe's cybersecurity heavily relies on the United States. My key points: 1. Europe's dependencies on the US in the field of cybersecurity extend well beyond software updates, SaaS, and cloud services and would persist even if a EuroStack were developed. /1

The global cybersecurity ecosystem is highly dependent on the US. Germany & Europe should take targeted measures to reduce this dependency and protect cybersecurity in Europe, writes @alexandrapaulus.bsky.social @swp-intsecurity.bsky.social: www.swp-berlin.org/publikation/...
