Masked agents of the US state are executing people in the streets and powerful leaders are openly lying to cover for them. To everyone in my industry who’s ever claimed to value freedom—draw on the courage of your convictions and stand up.

Ah, yes, encryption--the math that enables authentication, commerce, cybersecurity, the human right to privacy on which our networked world depends--is bad bc <spins wheel of bad guys> "pedophiles" <spins wheel of verbs> "love it most" Just profoundly unserious!
Rt. Hon Ben Wallace@BenWallace70

@LukeGaughan @tomhfh well for one the people who love encryption most are pedophiles. Even the US has a law ( dating way back) that forces platforms to proactively hand over some data.

New Sunday Times profile in which I succeed, like a fencer in a 2hr marathon match, in fending off Qs abt my personal life & consistently turning focus back to my work & ideas. Contra the interviewer's claim, many ppl do know me! They're called friends, & you know who you are ❤️ archive.is/BtZD0

The great Brian Cox has a Christmas message to @Keir_Starmer about "the brilliant, courageous and inspiring writer," Alaa Abd el-Fattah. 'It’s time to make the call, Prime Minister. Pick up the phone and bring Alaa home for Christmas." #FreeAlaa

The reason it’s not getting more coverage is that remedying the conditions that led to this, which we’ve been warning about for years, would require unwinding dangerous x surveillant norms the current tech industry relies on. Coverage or no, the find out era has arrived and a fix is urgently needed, however painful.

A stunning hack, the largest in US history China can tap into any phone and unsecured text convervation it wants of *all Americans.* It targeted Trump and JD Vance's phones We ask a basic question: "Um. How the hell is this not getting more coverage??" politico.com/newsletters/na…
