Headington Heritage

@ReclaimTheNetHQ @Loingirder Visiting U.S. citizens also captured forever by forced credit card handover or be treated as a child

Massie and Boebert's new bill effectively kills the third-party doctrine. No more warrantless access to your bank records, your browsing history, your location data just because it sits on a corporate server. The terms of service can't consent to surveillance on your behalf. Worth reading in full. reclaimthenet.org/surveillance-a…

@ReclaimTheNetHQ @Loingirder In UK @Apple forcing users to surrender credit card info to “conform with UK 18+ law” at OS level. It says only a check IF accessing it not total surveillance. Illegally under GDPR it accesses card info WITHOUT consent given for payment only and req only for check not forever

@HeadingtonNews Probably due to the lunatic rates system where businesses with premises have to pay the entire tax burden for online businesses as if the latter doesn’t use roads and all other government services

Leopard Press in Windmill Road has been closed for some time now. Does anyone know what is happening there?

@HeadingtonNews I remember a member of the staff said it was going online but that was months ago so no plan at that stage to be a PO

@TheOxfordMail @TheOxfordMail see earlier post of mine with photos.

@headingheritage Thanks for letting us know. Do you have any photos of the incident at all?

Big incident on The Slade Headington side of Wood Farm Road About 7 police cars one critical care unit and ambulance Women in handcuffs doesn’t look good @TheOxfordMail

@TheOxfordMail Best I can do from Dashcam, one image seems to show the arrest, not all cars etc in images:

@headingheritage No worries, thanks for the info @headingheritage. We have written this story here - oxfordmail.co.uk/news/26013286.…

@GoodLawProject @CityVoicEd Meanwhile @Apple is forcing all users at the operating system level to surrender their ID or be blocked from anything possibly over 18 in its view this NOT an OSA req! Reality is it will log every visit, transaction for profit or pass on to govt Only s Korea and Singapore & UK

Almost 65,000 have emailed their local NHS trust to tell them: Say no to Palantir. We need to keep the pressure up. Will you join them? notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-targe…

Something going on at Brookes Major road outside Oxford Brookes university closed after 'police incident' oxfordmail.co.uk/news/25997228.…

Not even clear if “at” means “in” with or without Ruskin sigh

Mystery meeting Ruskin College Mon 13/04 18:00 no publicity on its site or contact details re intention to destroy Ruskin Fields, the last green space between H/ton and Elsfield once LNBB complete, probably an tickbox to satisfy the Inspector. An obliging dear deer there today.

Asking for 18+ ID to access such material is one thing, demanding your credit card just to cut and track everything you say and do at the behest of the UK government and ship your whole life overseas or to government to who knows who is another NOT about protection it is control

Probably one of the best April fools ever.

Oh, to be in England Now that April's there, And whoever wakes in England Sees, some morning, unaware, That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheaf Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf, While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough In England - now! Robert Browning

On a more cheerful note, the Easter egg hunt is on at Larkins Lane Field (OPT)

Iron poles at at a very heavily used traffic pinchpoint can only lead to injury & damage, point made to Oxfordshire when proposed this bike stand, despite local Cllrs & others trying their best to propose better alternatives, but why listen when you know everything?

@ReconnectingOx I can no longer cross Headley Way on a bike, Marston Road very similar - very heavy traffic which never existed before,all started with the filters. So less congested parts of the city become less congested, and heavily congested get worse, totally irrational.

Oxford's congestion charge: working hard to reduce congestion on roads that were never busy or congested in the first place. No one mention that this beauty mainly disrupts the commuting routes for out-of-town hospital staff, who instead now travel on a heaving residential road.

Don't associate Kidlington with the FT, but this article says how the local Cherwell Council will be abolished if the Greater Oxford Anschuss goes ahead, rejected plans for 340 homes Shows a list of all the cities that will gobble up surrounding countryside in obvious gerrymander

I thought children's literature could not have plumbed deeper depths, but here we are with a cheap knockoff of Black Beauty and Alice in Wonderland as Oxford Literary Festival "Highlights" Desperate, why is so bad these days? Fortunately, the rest of the festival is very good.
