If Nigel Farage and Reform hadn’t taken the Government to court and overturned the cancelled elections, 4-5 million of you would not have had the right to vote today. 🗳️ Remember that.

If you use Google Chrome, it’s a good idea to check your hard drive. Privacy researcher Alexander Hanff just released a detailed investigation showing that Google has quietly installed a huge 4 GB Gemini Nano AI model on user devices without any prompt, notification, or consent. Hanff discovered this by analyzing macOS kernel logs, which applications cannot fake. He saw Chrome checking the system’s GPU and VRAM to decide if the computer was eligible. After passing the check, Chrome waited until the browser was idle, then started a large background download of a file called weights.bin. This approach uses your hardware for Google’s purposes and ignores the usual trust boundaries expected from a browser. The design raises concerns because it seems misleading. Chrome recently added a visible "AI Mode" button in the address bar. You might think the large 4 GB file on your SSD powers this feature, but it does not. The button mostly relies on the cloud, so your queries are still sent to Google’s servers. This gives the impression of privacy, but in reality, user data is still processed remotely. When this is done across Chrome’s huge user base, the environmental and financial impact is significant. For people on metered data plans or mobile hotspots, where data is costly, this silent download becomes a real financial burden. Additionally, if you find and delete the file, Chrome does not respect your choice. Instead, it sees the deletion as a corruption and quietly downloads the 4 GB file again the next time you open the browser.

Last year the British taxpayer spent £9 billion on Universal Credit for foreign nationals. Remember that next time a politician tells you “tough decisions need to be made”.
