For $5, someone can upload your photo to an app called Sherlock and pull up your name, your social media, and every website where your face appears. The app has over a billion faces indexed. It launched in January. and it's far from the only tool that does this. PimEyes came first, back in 2017, out of Poland. It has about 3 billion face photos copied from the internet without anyone's permission. Costs $30 a month. The company runs through a tangle of businesses registered in Belize, Seychelles, and Dubai. When five people in Illinois tried to sue them for collecting face data without asking, the lawyers spent two years trying to track down PimEyes' CEO. Sent people to the country of Georgia, to Dubai, to Belize. Never found him. The case got dropped. Clearview AI is the one police use. Over 70 billion face photos in its system. There are about 8 billion people on Earth, so Clearview has roughly 9 photos for every one of them, pulled from social media, news articles, and random websites without asking. Ukraine's military used Clearview to identify over 230,000 Russian soldiers during the war. The database keeps doubling roughly every 18 months. Texas sued Meta for scanning Facebook users' faces without consent and collected $1.4 billion. Then went after Google for the same thing and got $1.375 billion. Meta had already paid Illinois $650 million in 2020. TikTok paid $92 million. Clearview settled for $51 million. Total payouts from face-scanning lawsuits across the US: over $3.5 billion. Last October, two Harvard juniors connected PimEyes to a pair of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses (regular-looking sunglasses with a tiny camera built into the frame) and built a system called I-XRAY. They walked around campus, looked at strangers, and within about a minute had each person's name, home address, phone number, and part of their Social Security number show up on their phone. They didn't release the code, but said anyone who can write basic code could build the same thing with tools already available online. On March 17, three US senators wrote to Mark Zuckerberg asking what Meta plans to do about facial recognition in its smart glasses. Their letter pointed out that one person wearing these glasses could scan thousands of faces in a day without anyone knowing. There is still no federal law in the US covering any of this. Illinois passed one back in 2008. A few states have followed. For everyone else, the only thing between your photo and your home address is whether someone feels like spending five bucks.

@lady_valor_07 Buy guns and learn to use them.

I’m 25. Give me oddly specific life tips. No general ”surround yourself with positive people” tips. I want the most random, specific advice possible.

1 million acres are on fire right now in Nebraska, which basically disrupts the entire grain, meat and water supply in the United States.

This is one of the hardest things we have ever had to share. We are not the kind of people who like to ask for help. We have always believed in putting our heads down, working hard, trusting God, and doing everything we can to carry the weight ourselves. But there comes a point where the truth is bigger than pride, and our customers, followers, supporters, and everyone deserves to know what is really happening. Right now, we are in a legal battle with a major meat processor. And while this fight has our name on it, it is much bigger than our family alone. Small producers, family ranchers, and farmers spend generations building something they are proud of, only to come up against an industry that too often protects power over people, profit over principle, and control over transparency. The effects do not stop with the people raising the food. They reach every person purchasing meat because corruption and lack of transparency in the beef industry affect the food system as a whole and the trust families place in what they buy and feed their loved ones. This fight has cost us deeply. Between personal health struggles and the weight of this battle, we have had to make sacrifices we never wanted to make. We have had to cut back on our restaurants and e-commerce. We have sold cattle to help pay attorney fees. We have carried stress, heartbreak, and pressure that, at times, have felt impossible to explain. But we are still here, and we are still fighting. We are fighting for our family, for our ranch, for the values we were raised on, and for every small rancher and farmer who has ever felt crushed under a system that was never built to protect them. So today, we are asking for help. If you believe in family ranches, quality food, hard work, and a more transparent, healthy, and clean food system, please stand with us. One of the best ways you can support us right now is by purchasing our beef at santacarota.com. We started a GoFundMe for those who want to be part of something bigger than our family alone. If you want to help us keep fighting, please consider donating and helping us fight for farmers, ranchers: gofund.me/5f9dbc127

🚨 If cops or the Sheriff's Office are HARASSING you, lying on reports, or ruining your life—FIGHT BACK HARD. Head straight to your County Administrator's Office and file a public records request (Minnesota's Data Practices Act equivalent to FOIA) on EVERYTHING tied to your name. Dig up the false BS, fabricated reports, or misconduct. Then? Sue their asses. They panic and settle fast for a fat check—or hold the line and force real accountability, firings, and justice. Don't stay silent. Expose them. Get paid or get even. 💪🇺🇸 #PoliceAccountability #KnowYourRights #FightBack

The company behind POM juice, a juice marketed as a superfood antioxidant-rich drink, was just named California’s 2nd-largest user of paraquat — one of the most toxic herbicides still allowed in the U.S. Over 56,000 pounds sprayed in a single year… on crops used to make this so called health drink. Paraquat has been linked to Parkinson’s disease, cancer, and neurological damage. It drifts into nearby communities and lingers in soil for years. More than 60 countries have already banned it. So why is it still being used here? Help us continue the work to get these chemicals out of our food supply. [momsacrossamerica.com/monthly_donati…]

Simple cucumber trellis this idea doubles your harvest

A 50-year-old grandmother was wrongfully jailed for nearly six months after AI facial recognition software falsely identified her as the suspect in a bank fraud case. Police arrested her at gunpoint in July 2025 while she was babysitting children at home. She spent about 108 days in a Tennessee jail before extradition, totaling close to six months across facilities. This marks at least the ninth documented U.S. case of wrongful arrest linked to facial recognition misidentification.

i pray debt collectors call me last month one called about a $4,300 medical bill. i let him do his whole speech. then i said six words: "is this debt past the statute?" silence in 38 states, debt expires after 3-7 years. once it passes the statute of limitations, they cannot sue you for it. legally. the debt still exists on paper but they have zero enforcement power they're calling you hoping you don't know this. because the second you make a payment, even $1, the clock RESETS and they can sue you again for the full amount that's why they say "just pay $50 to show good faith." that $50 reactivates the entire debt. it's a trap and they know exactly what they're doing the play when a collector calls: step 1: say nothing about paying. say this: "please provide written validation of this debt under FDCPA Section 809" they are legally required to stop all collection activity until they send you written proof. most junk debt buyers can't produce it because they bought your debt in a bundle for 4 cents on the dollar and don't have the original paperwork step 2: check your state's statute of limitations at your state AG's website. if the debt is past the SOL, send this letter: "this debt is time-barred under [state] statute of limitations. any attempt to collect or sue is a violation of the FDCPA. cease all contact immediately" step 3: if it's on your credit report and it's past 7 years, dispute it. "this account exceeds the FCRA 7-year reporting period. remove immediately." bureaus must remove it within 30 days or face $1,000 per violation i helped someone wipe $23,000 in zombie debt in one afternoon. four letters. zero dollars paid the collectors who called her every week? gone. the accounts on her credit report dragging her score down 80+ points? deleted. she went from 588 to 691 in 45 days without paying a cent debt collectors buy your old debt for pennies and try to scare you into paying full price. their entire business model depends on you not knowing your rights now you know (link in bio. i delete debt and fix credit scores)

Starting in 2027, all new passenger vehicles will be required to have Infrared cameras, eye‑tracking, head‑position monitoring, and behavioral impairment detection. A biometric babysitter in every car. No vote. No opt‑out. Just mandatory. It’s control tech, plain and simple.

George R.R. Martin on how film and TV adaptations make the story worse: "Everywhere you look, there are more screenwriters and producers eager to take great stories and “make them their own.”   It does not seem to matter whether the source material was written by Stan Lee, Charles Dickens, Ian Fleming, Roald Dahl, Ursula K. Le Guin, J.R.R. Tolkien, Mark Twain, Raymond Chandler, Jane Austen, or… well, anyone. No matter how major a writer it is, no matter how great the book, there always seems to be someone on hand who thinks he can do better, eager to take the story and “improve” on it.   “The book is the book, the film is the film,” they will tell you, as if they were saying something profound.  Then they make the story their own. They never make it better, though.  Nine hundred ninety-nine times out of a thousand, they make it worse." Is he right?

I don't think folks understand how bad the agricultural situation is in America, and the Farm Bill isn't for the farmers & ranchers it purports to serve. The farm bill serves the Ag chem companies, and mega corporations. Vote with your $ every day to save our farms. Links to connect with local farms & ranches in comments! 🐄🚜✨️

@grok @truetrav @Xx17965797N @grok how many times has Pfizer been sued for misleading information and/or distribution of dangerous products?

No, not completely true. Noack claimed (Nov 23, 2021 video) graphene hydroxide in COVID vaccines acts as "nano-razors" cutting vessels. But vaccines contain no graphene forms (per Pfizer, CDC ingredient lists). 2020 livestream raid happened but wasn't his arrest—targeted another resident; police confirmed unrelated to him. He died Nov 26 (3 days later) of natural heart attack (partner clarified after initial "attack" mention; police: natural causes). Partner was pregnant. Sources: politifact.com/factchecks/202… leadstories.com/hoax-alert/202… politifact.com/factchecks/202…

‼️Remember Dr. Andreas Noack, graphene expert? He said graphene hydroxide in the COVID shots acts like nanoscale razors on blood vessels. He was arrested during a livestream at home and died hours later leaving a pregnant partner behind.

California residents catch huge amounts of glyphosate being sprayed by the city on camera “They're using thousands of gallons of Roundup in a couple days and spraying it up and down the channel and telling nobody” “Concerned neighbors started what they call the Creek team, documenting cases like this where Orange County Public Works crews were spraying large amounts of herbicide.” “Orange County Public Works sprayed 160,000 gallons of glyphosate in 2024”
