Friends,

We have an exciting announcement!


The Freedom Cell Network is proud to present The Greater Reset 5: Manifestation in Morelia, Mexico from January 17-21, 2024!

For our 5th event we are changing things up a bit! We will be hosting 1 event, in Mexico, with a livestream for our freedom family around the world to tune in. Our hope is that by only having one event it will be the largest gathering yet!

Of course, we will continue to stream the event for free for those who cannot make it in person! 

Stay tuned for details on ticket prices, venue, and hotels! 

Thanks for supporting our efforts to counter "The Great Reset" by focusing on The People's Reset and envisioning what we want OUR 2030 to look like! 

P.S. - If you haven't watched The Greater Reset mini-documentary, watch it this weekend to get a taste of TGR in Mexico!

⚡️Decentralized Mastodon Instances Block Meta's New Project
@takebackourtech

We just relaunched our Mastodon server: https://connect.takebackourtech.org - and of course there's a new cause for concern between Mastodon and Meta.

A little background: Mastodon is a decentralized social network based off of the ActivityPub protocol. This protocol is popular as the foundation of the 'Fediverse' which provides decentralized applications as alternatives to centralized social medias. Users typically belong to a larger server which is responsible for subscribing to content and delivering notifications, just like email.

Now Meta is getting ready to release its own Twitter alternative named 'Threads', which uses the same ActivityPub protocol under the hood.

It should be possible for Facebook and Instagram users to migrate from those platforms onto ActivityPub, at the same time Meta may be trying to poach Mastodon users.

Many of the largest Mastodon servers have taken preventative action and blocked their server's from connecting to Meta URL's, waiting for more details about the launch and to get feedback from their users.

A mastodon user Panos Damelos had this to say:

Today we see a lot of concern about "what will the #Fediverse do" with #Meta. Wanna know what we will do? Everything and nothing. Because the Fediverse is not one entity. This is the essence of its decentralized nature - and that's cool. If your server intends to block Meta servers completely - cool. If not, cool again.

But if you expect a unified response on something like that, you're in for a disappointment.

Good news everyone! Since nobody said their wallet exploded while testing PocketChange, the newest version is out for every user, everywhere. That means GooglePlay, F-Droid, and GitHub, of course.

Check out https://anhdres.medium.com/monerujos-pocketchange-what-it-is-and-how-it-works-8e1ea1f7489e to learn about it.

In a nutshell, PocketChange is a setting that you can enable per account, and will create extra change every time you send Monero. That makes extra change to be quickly available in your following transactions, avoiding the 20 mins wait that you often encounter otherwise.

Get those wallets ready for some digital cash action. Buy (and invite) beers, mate sodas, coffee, vegan gluten-free organic nachos, whatever suits your gut, you bastards! See you in MoneroKon 😎

⚡️Update to EU Law Forces Removable Batteries by 2027
@takebackourtech

Remember when smartphones had removable batteries? It doesn't feel like too long ago. Now - those times could be coming back.

Last Wednesday, EU Parliament overwhelmingly passed new rules for design and production of batteries, including those in smartphones.

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20230609IPR96210/making-batteries-more-sustainable-more-durable-and-better-performing

There are measures like carbon footprint declaration and digital battery passport 👀 - but the most consumer friendly measure will require removable batteries from electronic appliances.

Google, Apple & other manufacturers will need to completely rethink how they design their phones if they want to continue selling in the EU.

EU Legislation for Digital Euro Is Put on Hold: Source

A bill covering privacy and distribution of the central bank digital currency, originally scheduled for June 28, will be delayed

European Union legislation needed to underpin a digital euro, originally due to be published June 28, has been put on hold, CoinDesk has been told.

The move follows the leaking of the draft bill, which covers privacy and technical issues for the central bank digital currency (CBDC), and a statement by finance ministers that appeared to question the motivation for the plan last week.

The timeline for the draft bill, intended to be published ahead of a firm European Central Bank decision on whether to issue the currency in a digital form, has shifted several times. It was at one stage planned for May.

Cool SDK for Linux apps that make them fit to mobile screens (Linux Phones)!

Forwarded from Freedom Tech Index
Maui apps, based on Qt and the KDE desktop, are responsive apps that adjust and redraw according to the screen they are rendering on. An app that is responsive is also known as "working on all form factors." Scroll down through the article to see some example screenshots.

This is good for Linux phones, especially since most Linux phones can be docked and used as a desktop computer. All popular programs in Linux need to go this route so they can be used on Linux phones.

With Oran, India & Us Eye Breaking Chinese Stranglehold on Telecom Gear

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi works out business deals during his visit to the US, a good part of the discussions will be in the area of telecom and trusted sources and on exchange of technologies between the two countries, especially when it comes to development of Open Radio Access Networks or ORAN solutions that aim to break the stronghold of Chinese and some European companies on 4G, 5G and 6G technology, which is under developments.

India is increasingly looking at telecom technologies by opting for a disintegrated approach under the ORAN model, where different players pool in to build complex, integrated networks.

What is ORAN?

ORAN is meant to allow hardware and software used in cellular networks to inter-operate, irrespective of the vendor. RAN has traditionally been a proprietary or closed segment of the network...

India-US on ORAN, and iCET discussions between the NSAs

There have already been discussions around ORAN during high-level meetings between India and the US, such as those during the recent conversations between National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and his American counterpart Jake Sullivan. It has also been a part of the discussions at the level of Quad, where the effort is to break the Chinese monopoly, especially when national security and cyber threats are proving to be real dangers for countries across the world.

Several American telecom and IT companies, such as Cisco, are looking to partner Indian companies in the development and rollout of 4G, and 5G solutions while working on 6G development. This also figures on the list of priorities being attempted through the Critical and Emerging Technologies (iCET) between India and the US, launched in January. The iCET's focus is on driving enhanced cooperation between private industries as well as research and scientific institutions in the US and India in next-gen technologies such as AI, telecom, ORAN, space, quantum computing and semiconductors.

⚡️LIVESTREAM THURS: Shielding Our Lives from Electromagnetic Radiation with Bill Cadwallader
@takebackourtech

Every cell in our body relies on finely tuned electromagnetic fields that are responsible for signaling everything from energy production to our heartbeat.

Can the multitude of EMR sources in our environment be interfering with this natural system? Can we identify our own levels of pollution? Is there a way to use technology while mitigating exposure?

We will begin to answer these questions and more this Thursday at 12 PM Central Time on a new #TBOT interview: Shielding Our Lives from Electromagnetic Radiation

We will be learning about EMR & related solutions with Bill Cadwallader, an internationally recognized Electromagnetic Radiation Expert from the Building Biology Institute and founder of Stop Dirty Electricity and Safe Living Technologies.

Bill, a Certified Electromagnetic Radiation Specialist, has enlightened audiences at the International EMF Health Summit with his deep expertise. He has also authored the seminal work "Exposed – The Electronic Sickening of America and How to Protect Yourself – Includes Dangers of 5G & Smart Devices" and co-authored "Quick & Easy EMF Guide – 99 Tips to Lower Exposure to Harmful Electromagnetic Radiation."

Our conversation will cover:

- What EMR/EMF is and its defining features
- The different types, how it works, and its effects on living things
- Strategies to identify and remediate high EMF polluted environments
- Best practices for using your technology safely
