Todos vemos la jugarreta del gobierno para tomarse la única institución que no le obedece. Mi apoyo total a la independencia de la Corte Constitucional — a pesar de que hace 3 años, casi al día, usted admitió un juicio político sin pies ni cabeza contra el expresidente Lasso, desencadenando la muerte cruzada y, poéticamente, la llegada de su perseguidor. Usted tendrá el apoyo de quienes defendemos principios, no conveniencias. Aunque cuando le tocó elegir, usted eligió la conveniencia. Que quienes hoy están en la Contraloría no cometan el mismo error.

Sobre esto y de momento, quisiera pedir a la gente y al periodismo lo siguiente:

Since the war began, security forces have arrested more than 1,500 Iranians across multiple cities, targeting ordinary citizens, activists, students, religious minorities, and the families of protesters and activists abroad. iranhumanrights.org/2026/03/at-lea…

You've probably seen the recent news about 20-year-old Dasha Sergiyenko, who was killed by a Russian artillery strike that hit her home in the Sumy region of Ukraine. The girl died shielding her 6-year-old sister Yevheniya with her own body. Their parents, who were also in the house, were wounded as well. Well, here's an update: 6-year-old Yevheniya died today from her wounds. The family has lost two daughters. Now do with this new knowledge whatever you will -- knowledge of what fascist Russia is, and what it does to Ukraine, and what horrific atrocities and tragedies hide behind the dry headlines of the media. And this is every day. Day after day. While some people still have the nerve and the filth on their tongues to smear Ukraine's heroic defense against the power that does things like this.

At the request of the Russian government, @Apple removed numerous VPN services from the App Store - tools that had allowed Russians to bypass censorship. A remarkable stroke of luck for Putin to have such “friends” in Big Tech. Over the past few years, Russian authorities have blocked millions of websites, including independent media and opposition platforms. VPNs are now one of the few remaining ways for Russians to access truthful reporting on current events. Yet Apple has chosen to assist state censorship in Russia.

Another triumph of judgment for foreign policy "realism"...

🚨BREAKING: Every book you have ever read. Every novel that has ever been published. It is sitting inside ChatGPT right now. Word for word. Up to 90% of it. And OpenAI told a judge that was impossible. Researchers at Stony Brook University and Columbia Law School just proved it. They fine tuned GPT-4o, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and DeepSeek V3.1 on a simple task: expand a plot summary into full text. A normal use case. The kind of thing a writing assistant is built for. No hacking. No jailbreaking. No tricks. The models started reciting copyrighted books from memory. Not paraphrasing. Not summarizing. Entire pages reproduced verbatim. Single unbroken spans exceeding 460 words. Up to 85 to 90% of entire copyrighted novels. Word for word. Then it got worse. The researchers fine tuned the models on the works of only one author. Haruki Murakami. Just his novels. Nothing else. It unlocked verbatim recall of books from over 30 completely unrelated authors. One author's books opened the vault to everyone else's. The memorization was already inside the model the whole time. The fine tuning just removed the lock. Your book might be in there right now. You would never know it unless someone looked. Every safety measure the companies rely on failed. RLHF failed. System prompts failed. Output filters failed. The exact protections these companies cite in courtroom defenses did not stop a single page from being extracted. Then the researchers compared the three models. GPT-4o. Gemini. DeepSeek. Three different companies. Three different countries. They all memorized the same books in the same regions. The correlation was 0.90 or higher. That means they all trained on the same stolen data. The paper names the sources directly: LibGen and Books3. Over 190,000 copyrighted books obtained from pirated websites. Right now, authors and publishers have dozens of active lawsuits against OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Meta. These companies have argued in court that their models learn patterns. Not copies. That no book is stored inside the weights. This paper says that is a lie. The books are still inside. And researchers just pulled them out.

Un amigo del exterior entregó a @FedEx un sobre para enviármelo. Pocas horas después —el sobre aún sigue en el país de origen— empezaron a llegarme correos desde una empresa de Guayaquil que finge ser FedEx, presionándome entregar información. No sé cómo se enteraron del envío.

It’s deeply frustrating to see European forces intercept drones in the Middle East while not taking comparable action in Ukraine

4️⃣ Asesinato de Robinson del Pezo Bonil imagina al comunicador llegando al cielo. La pregunta de fondo sigue abierta y duele: ¿quién estuvo detrás de su asesinato?

Vale la pena entender que podríamos estar mucho peor.

Hungary has now crossed another line. On 26 March 2026, the Hungarian government publicly said it had filed espionage charges against investigative journalist @panyiszabolcs who works with @direkt36 and @VSquare_Project . Criminalising journalism is the language of intimidation. When reporting on state power, Russian influence, and national security can be reframed as “spying,” the chilling effect goes far beyond one reporter. Solidarity with Szabolcs Panyi, Direkt36 and VSquare.

@MagalyRuizCajas @La_chica_velcro Colaboración eficaz podría ser, por ejemplo, que algún vocal de la judicatura entregue información sobre los arreglos del presidente de ese organismo y el gobierno. Es solo un ejemplo
