🚨 JUST IN: The Trump Administration has significantly slashed resources dedicated to prosecuting sex traffickers.

As a result, far fewer sex traffickers have been prosecuted this year than in previous years.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: A massive report exposes that Trump purchased $100,000,000 in bonds tied to companies DIRECTLY impacted by his policies. That is slam dunk insider trading and is IMPEACHABLE.

Overall, Trump has made an estimated $3.4 BILLION in just one year and 6 months.

🚨 JUST IN: Trump administration permanently deletes anti-corruption registry.

This has been described as the "single-greatest pro-corruption step in decades."

The best memory of 2020 was how animals returned to the streets while humans were in quarantine

@milcery I'm assuming you're not talking about Evantasy or Angelphilia lol.

@milcery Usually a line and two tiny bumps most of the time. A lot of websites (ESPECIALLY Chinese ones) are just insanely censored nowadays.

The USPS doesn't lose money, it costs money.

Saying a public service "loses money" is like saying you lose money when you buy groceries. Buying groceries isn't "losing money".

Doctors at a specialist ADHD clinic in the Netherlands just confirmed something women have been describing for years and getting dismissed for, stimulant medication genuinely stops working as well the week before your period, and now there's a study proving it.

Chuds love to call it socialism when people use our tax dollars for the exact purposes we pay taxes. Call it what you like, I call it simply doing their job.

The Trump crime family sued Capital One for shutting down 300 Trump bank accounts saying it’s was because of politics.

Capital One just replied, it was actually because of a money laundering review…

This should be much bigger news.

i think every place should ban what’s clearly such a blatant attempt to normalize the surveillance state

A 22-year-old student teacher in Illinois sent a private Snapchat message to her boyfriend and two roommates.

A student had walked up to her laptop and deleted her lesson plan mid-class. frustrated, she typed something like "should I shoot him" with a gun emoji. venting. four people. private group chat.

An hour later, police walked into her school and arrested her.

here's what happened in between.

Snapchat's AI scanned the private message. flagged it as a potential threat. automatically reported it to the FBI. the FBI forwarded it to local law enforcement. deputies arrived at the school within the hour.

she cooperated immediately. handed over her phone. when shown the message she said: "oh yes. okay. yeah. i'm realizing that was a bad joke. i did not mean it at all serious at all."

police determined she was not a threat. school officials determined she was not a threat. prosecutors reviewed and issued a disorderly conduct charge. she was released the next morning. she lost her student teaching placement.

This means:

Snapchat scans private messages.

Not just public posts or stories. private group chats between you and your closest contacts. automated AI. no human reviewed it first, got flagged and reported.

Snapchat AI → FBI → local police → school → arrest.

in under an hour.

Snapchat's privacy policy says it may share your information with law enforcement when it believes there is a risk of harm. the definition of "risk of harm" is determined by an algorithm.

you are not told when a message is flagged.
you are not told when a report is filed.
you find out when the police arrive.

the message was private.

it wasn't.
