Facebook engineer abused access to user data to track down a woman who had left their hotel room after they fought on vacation, new book says

•Facebook fired 52 people from 2014 to August 2015 for abusing access to user data, a new book says.
•One person reportedly used data to track down a woman he was traveling with who had left him after a fight.
•Changes to retention of such data were “antithetical to Mark’s DNA,” one employee told the authors.

Friends,

Today at 3 pm Central I am going to be doing a video called "Vegans Against Agenda 2030/The Great Reset" focused on the fact that there are those who choose to be vegan BUT do NOT buy into the United Nations, World Economic Forum, Green New Deal propaganda. The point of the video is to go over a recent article that did a great job pointing out the various concerns about veganism.

I am also hoping that this video can be the kick off for a page/channel/website/movement of vegans who feel the same. Vegans for Freedom/Vegans Against Agenda 2030 can plant a flag by stating that although we are vegan we do not support efforts to force people to become vegans. Also, we support a whole foods vegan diet, not a genetically engineered, 3d printed lab "meat" diet. The website/page/channel could explain this important distinction and offer non-franken meat resources for those considering veganism.

Most people get so caught up in the here & now (actually the past by the time your brain has registered it), and so it's very hard for them to zoom out, looking at the long-running trends, and get a glimpse of what's coming down the pipeline for humanity.

I don't mean 2021, 2022, or even what's happening in the next 5-10 years.

I'm talking about what's happening in the next few decades, the next few generations, the next century or two.

In the long run, it seems to me that technological advancements alone (communications, quantum computing, AI, 3D printing, molecular engineering) will shift the world's "economy" so drastically that the old system of control & authority doesn't have even the slightest chance of surviving.

Soon enough, diamond will be the standard for windows, windshields, glasses, and more - because it's a simple repeating carbon pattern.

Every community will have a combination recycling center and 3D printer library, where they can dump their waste into various chutes on the back of the building, then walk around the other side and print that matter into whatever it is that they need now.

Is The Freedom Phone Legit, Scam, Or a Honeypot?
@neo_network | @neo_network_chat

FULL DISCLOSURE: You may know that our company, Above Agency is preparing to launch its own series of phones that are pre-installed with GrapheneOS. When I saw that there was another phone announced with little details about its underlying operating system and promoted by conservative pundits, I knew I had to dig in a little more, in the case it was a scam or a honeypot.

Here's what I found:

By now you've probably heard of the Freedom Phone, a phone that has been making waves on 'conservative' channels through an advertising campaign.

Behind it is an Erik Finman, a bitcoin investor since 11 years of age,who took a $1,000 gift from grandma and invested it directly into Bitcoin. This lead to a series of investments that made him a millionaire before the age of 18. At first glance, his story is a feel-good story of a prodigal kid stumbling into fortunes, and now making his way into the phone market, but could there be something more lurking?

How did he hear about Bitcoin?

Finman said his older brother brought him to a protest following the financial crisis of 2008. He recalls running from the police and seeing a man wearing a bitcoin shirt, and then asking him what bitcoin was.

"He's like a hippie, he's like, 'Man, I think it's gonna end Wall Street, all the corruption, and all the bad things.'"

—
Interesting story there. Erik's background gets more interesting when you realize both of his parents work for the military industrial complex.

Paul and Dr. Lorna Finman met at Stanford, Lorna was a former astronaut candidate, and Paul was an electrical engineer. Lorna also was also the technical directory of Raytheon's multi-million dollar R&D program. Together, they founded LCF enterprises - winning contracts from the Department of Defense. LCF Enterprises manufacture RF amplifiers utilized in military communication, airborne and aircraft applications, jamming systems, electronic countermeasures technologies, UAV's, SATCOM and other national security measures across the globe today." (source)

More recently, Erik has worked with NASA (this program was co-sponsored by his mother) to have teenagers launch satellites into space.

I'm glad that Erik is ambitious and takes on these sorts of projects, but we can't ignore the support and government connections he has on account of his family.

Do these connections somehow extend to conservative media as well?

The American flag-branded phone was immediately promoted by a wide range of right-wing figures, including former Trump adviser Roger Stone, Jan. 6 rally organizer Ali Alexander, and pundit Dinesh D’Souza.

“I’m holding a freaking phone that is not controlled by Apple or Google,” conservative personality Candace Owens told her fans in an Instagram video. “We made the switch immediately.”

—
Somehow the conservative media picked up the phone immediately in a coordinated marketing campaign. I have the feeling this is part of the larger disinformation campaign tying the issue of freedom of speech and fight against censorship as a conservative talking point, when it is something effecting us all.

Is this a scam? Probably.

❌ No source-code auditability - the promoters that market the freedom phone can't even tell you anything about the operating system
❌ No details on specifications - no details about the phone were presented publicly, although it was discovered it was a rebranded Chinese phone
❌ Rebranded cheap hardware, a Chinese made Umidigi A9 Pro that can be purchased for $120.00

—
Whether you decide to purchase a phone from an individual, or even flash it yourself, make sure you can answer basic questions like what operating system it runs or what security features it can provide.

The people who promoted this phone exposed themselves as scammers for promoting a product they know nothing about (that no one knows anything about) and as dis-information agents for spreading the message that censorship only happens against Republicans...

I just installed Pop on an old Lifebook T which must be about 10 years old - left partition with documents on and just installed in on c drive. Very easy and quick.

Israeli Police to Launch SMS System to Verify Compliance With Isolation

🇮🇱@COVID19Up: Prime Minister Naftali Bennett met with relevant ministers and officials on Sunday to work on stepping up the enforcement of coronavirus regulations.

It was decided that verified SARS-CoV-2 carriers who breach isolation will be criminally charged.

In addition, Bennett gave instruction to the ministry and the attorney general to regulate the legal aspect of employing technological tools to monitor those in quarantine, including allowing the police to verify the location of individuals in isolation through an SMS system.

It was also announced that priority in enforcement will be given to weddings and another events considered at high risk of spreading infections.

Celebrating @neo_network's 1,000th subscriber and @takebackourtech's 600th!
@neo_network | @takebackourtech

A few years ago, when I worked as a software engineer full time - I felt lonely. Despite the high levels of intelligence around me, It felt as if people in my industry could not think for themselves. They were unaware of the immoral sociopolitical, financial, and medical systems in place, and even if they were aware - all it took for them to not act was a cushy salary. Or worse yet, they were aware and excited for the dystopian future.

I wanted to be a part of a better system.

Through chance, I ended up here, having the opportunity to find truth in technology, and to use it as a power for good. And I saw this goodness travel from the digital messages of The Freedom Cell Network and The Greater Reset, and manifest out into the real world, helping families, communities, and individuals take action.

I started @neo_network back in February after the first The Greater Reset. Through a few posts, we shed light on companies that fake privacy - (ProtonMail, Brave, Matrix, Mozilla Firefox), betting that you'll never dig into the dirty details.

I give thanks to have this opportunity to share what I have learned, and to promote research & critical thinking along with it. The message is resounding with the ones out there that value their privacy and freedom. Those who are ready to take action, to take back their technology.

I am lonely no longer. I've found the technologists & creatives that are awake, and am working with them. And I predict this is just the beginning, and more technologists will come, away from the smart cities, and into happy homesteads, where they will live free & self-directed lives.

I imagine a future where we don't worry about censorship, because we communicate on platforms we manage ourselves. A future where we have real smart technology. This technology will automatically water our victory gardens at sunset, rather than tell us to restock our fridge. It'll manage our security cameras, and alert only us when there is something there. A world where we don't worry about whether we can trust email providers, because that email provider is us, or someone we know directly.

If we want freedom at a grand scale, this is what it will take. Let's figure it out together.
