Let me spell out what this means for privacy: Surveillance is hidden all through opaque software. You are never meant to find it. But AI can decompile, analyze, & expose exactly what your apps are doing. The age of "trust us" software is ending. Privacy revolution incoming.

Sam Altman is happy to accept some bad things happening. As long as they happen to you.

Miss me with that gay shit

- 1913: "The income tax will only hit the top 1%." - 1935: "Social security numbers will never be used for identification." - 1971: "The gold suspension is temporary." - 2001: "These surveillance powers are only for terrorists." - 2020: "Two weeks to slow the spread." - 2026: "CBDCs will never be used to control spending." - You: "I'm noticing a pattern." - Government: "There's no pattern." - You: "That's what the pattern would say."

What I've learned from big-brained MAGA social media influencers heading into the midterms is that red socialism is heavenly goodness while blue socialism is of the devil.

5 reasons you should care about privacy

If a rule and the Constitution collide, the rule loses, if it doesn’t lose, you’re a liar and you’ve broken your oath and you shouldn’t be trusted to even be a dog catcher.

They didn't birth this country so every road felt like a checkpoint. They didn’t intend for Free citizens to be Questioned nor their papers To be examined every time They go somewhere.

Exit fiat or go down with the ship

HYPOTHETICALLY… IF I BOUGHT MY HOUSE FOR $125,000 IN 2002 AND THE COUNTY NOW SAYS IT’S WORTH $487,000, WHERE DID I ACTUALLY MAKE $362,000? Did I sell it? No. Did I receive $362,000? No. Did somebody hand me a check for the new assessed value? Obviously not. But my property taxes still go up because, on paper, my house is suddenly worth hundreds of thousands more. That’s the part that doesn’t make sense to me. This isn’t income. It isn’t cash sitting in my bank account. It’s a number someone assigned to my property, and now I’m being billed based on that number. If my stock portfolio doubles but I don’t sell, I haven’t turned that gain into cash. If my salary stays the same, I don’t suddenly owe more income tax because someone thinks I’m worth more. So why does owning a home work differently? WHY AM I PAYING TAX ON A GAIN I NEVER REALIZED? A house isn’t just an investment. It’s where people live. You can pay off the mortgage, own the property outright, and still face a bigger bill every year because the value of the house went up on paper. At some point, you have to ask what “owning” something actually means if the cost of keeping it can keep rising because of money you never received. THIS ISN’T ABOUT WHETHER THE HOUSE IS “WORTH” MORE. IT’S ABOUT BEING CHARGED FOR VALUE YOU NEVER TURNED INTO CASH. And people are starting to notice.

The USPS has no role in helping to improve "community safety." But, it will make the carriers and their vehicles moving targets.

Is it just me, or are traditional "news outlets" becoming more and more worthless? When government agencies have their own social media outlets to publish information on, what good is a new channel that's not focused on investigative journalism or at least asking questions?

Backlash against Flock and other ALPRs has been fierce, and it may get fiercer: an anti-drug trafficking program from the 1980s is forcing cities nationwide to funnel ALPR data into a massive federal surveillance program.

If a sheriff wants your location history, he should get a warrant. Instead agencies buy it from a data broker. No warrant needed. Same data. No judge. No probable cause. Buying your way around the Fourth Amendment is still going around it.
