Apple Curbs Use Of AirDrop In Chinese Protests
@takebackourtech | SOURCE

In another example of how big tech isn't here to serve the everyday person, Apple recently limited AirDrop for phones in Mainland China. AirDrop was a useful tool for protestors of the Covid Lockdowns and was used to distribute messages and literature among citizens and tourists.

Its commendable that protestors are finding a way around the rampant censorship and telling that Apple wants to put an immediate end to it.

Unfortunately, alternative open-source implementations of the AirDrop protocol like Open Wireless Link are experimental and are command line only. Thanks to these protestors, its now clear that there is specific need of open peer to peer file sharing without an intermediary network.

Chinese Authorities Seek Out COVID Protesters

Chinese authorities have begun inquiries into some of the people who gathered at weekend protests against COVID-19 curbs, people who were at the Beijing demonstrations told Reuters, as police remained out in numbers on the city's streets.

Two protesters told Reuters that callers identifying themselves as Beijing police officers asked them to report to a police station on Tuesday with written accounts of their activities on Sunday night. A student also said they were asked by their college if they had been in an area where a protest happened and to provide a written account.

"We are all desperately deleting our chat history," said another person who witnessed the Beijing protest and declined to be identified. The person said police asked how they heard about the protest and what was their motive for going.

It was not clear how authorities identified the people they wanted to question about their participation in the protests, and it was also not clear how many such people the authorities aimed to question.

Beijing's Public Security Bureau did not respond to a request for comment. A spokesperson for China's foreign ministry said rights and freedoms must be exercised within the framework of the law.

European Union Adopts Drone Strategy 2.0 to Accelerate UAV Use for Domestic Operations

The European Commission is moving to accelerate the use and diversification of UAV services across the European Union (EU) with the adoption of its Drone Strategy 2.0, which, in addition to tapping into what’s expected to be a vigorous growth area, seeks to reduce the opportunities for malevolent actors to abuse the technology.

The European Commission, which serves as the executive body of the EU introduced its Drone Strategy 2.0 during a two-day event in Brussels to promote UAV development. That Drone Days conference permits government officials, regulators, businesses, and interested members of the public to learn more about how the 27-nation bloc plans to promote emerging aerial activities in the coming years.

It also calls for synergies to be created by various kinds of commercial, private, and defense deployment. Though officials say UAVs have already performed “hundreds of thousands” of safe and productive hours of flights across the EU, the Drone Strategy 2.0 aims to accelerate that activity, especially in the following areas:

- Emergency services, mapping, imaging, inspection ,and surveillance within the applicable legal frameworks by civil drones, as well as the urgent delivery of small consignments, such as biological samples or medicines.

- Innovative Air Mobility services, such as air taxis, providing regular transport services for passengers, initially with a pilot on board, but with the ultimate aim of fully automating operations.

Apple limits use of AirDrop to stop activists from spreading info.

This isn't the first time apple has bowed to the Chinese government. Back in 2019, Apple removed an app that helped Hong Kong protesters track police movements, saying it was used to target officers, after a Chinese state newspaper sharply criticized the U.S. tech giant for allowing the software.

Why are you still using their phones and computers?

Australian PM Anthony Albanese Urges Us Government to End Pursuit of Julian Assange

The Australian prime minister, Anthony Albanese, says he has personally urged the US government to end its pursuit of Wikileaks co-founder Julian Assange.

In his most in-depth comments about the diplomatically sensitive issue in months, Albanese said he had raised the Assange case “recently in meetings” with US representatives and he vowed to continue to press for it to be brought to a close.

Assange, an Australian citizen, remains in Belmarsh prison in London as he fights a US attempt to extradite him to face charges in connection with the publication of hundreds of thousands of leaked documents about the Afghanistan and Iraq wars as well as diplomatic cables.

Albanese was responding to a parliamentary question from the independent MP Monique Ryan, who said public-interest journalism was “essential to democracy” and declared that Assange’s freedom “will only come from political intervention”.

Ryan asked: “Will the government intervene to bring Mr Assange home?”

The prime minister acknowledged the case was “an issue of great interest to many Australians and of interest to people across this chamber”.

“The government will continue to act in a diplomatic way, but can I assure the member … that I have raised this personally with representatives of the United States government,” the Labor leader told parliament on Wednesday.

“My position is clear and has been made clear to the US administration – that it is time that this matter be brought to a close.”

He did not state explicitly whether he had raised it with the US president, Joe Biden, or with other US representatives such as the ambassador to Australia, Caroline Kennedy, with whom he also met recently.

Albanese’s most recent meeting with Biden was in Bali, Indonesia, two weeks ago.

This comes days after 5 major news outlets, The New York Times, The Guardian, Le Monde, DER SPIEGEL, and El País published an open-letter calling for Assange's freedom that stated “publishing is not a crime” and that it was time for the US “to end its prosecution of Julian Assange for publishing secrets.”

Wikileaks Website is Struggling to Stay Online—as Millions of Documents Disappear

WikiLeaks’ website appears to be coming apart at the seams, with more and more of the organization’s content unavailable without explanation.

WikiLeaks technical issues, which have been ongoing for months, have gotten worse in recent weeks as increasingly larger portions of its website no longer function. Even attempting to visit wikileaks.org is a gamble in itself, often producing a 502 message that indicates an error was detected on the website’s server.

When the website does become available, problems still abound. The main banner on WikiLeaks, which includes the organization’s logo as well as links to subdomains such as the “About” page, has been entirely missing since earlier this month. A similar banner at the bottom of the page, which once showed links to sites for Bitcoin and the Tor Project, is now gone as well.

A search bar that once scoured the site for information also appears to no longer work and instead redirects users to the homepage.

But the biggest issue relates to WikiLeaks’ entire purpose: Leaks.

Many of the group’s leaks have either vanished or become inaccessible to the public. Of the seven leaks highlighted on the homepage, three produce no content. Two of those redirect to error pages while the third merely sends users back to the homepage.

Some of the organization’s most prominent leaks have also been affected. A cache of more than 1 million emails from Hacking Team released in 2015, the now-defunct Italian surveillance vendor, are gone. An archive of tens of thousands of emails from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email are inaccessible. The Democratic National Committee emails, provided to WikiLeaks ahead of the 2016 election by Russian state entities posing as rogue hackers, are similarly missing.

Although WikiLeaks long boasted that it released more than 10 million documents in 10 years, at current, less than 3,000 documents remain accessible, according to an analysis by the Daily Dot of the website’s leaks archive. The issues have become so apparent that supporters of the group are now voicing concerns across social media.

In a post on the WikiLeaks subreddit over the weekend, one user complained that every search request made on the website produced an error message.

“The site is completely down for me,” another responded. “All I get is a ‘502 bad gateway’ error.”
