It’s only June but I’m pretty sure this will be the best political ad of 2026.

Update: the App Review Board has confirmed that my Apple Developer account will not be terminated. Sparrow on macOS is safe.

Thank you to everyone who shared and reached out in the past 24 hours - I'm grateful. And credit to @Apple for reviewing the appeal and reaching the right outcome.

The deeper problem hasn't gone away: apps impersonating @SparrowWallet are still reaching users and putting their funds at risk. I'll keep working to protect people from those scams, and I hope to do so alongside @Apple.

Thank you all.

@KirkLubimov Maybe selfish of me but the way i look at it is provide a full refund of my property taxes and utilities prorated for the days these services are supposedly unavailable and id seriously consider following the advisories.

Otherwise F-off

.@Apple do the right thing - protect the ability to use sparrow on macos

[Craig Raw 🐦 @craigraw]

My attempt to protect users from scam apps on the @AppStore has gotten my Apple Developer account flagged for termination - ironically, for "dishonest activity".

Unless it's reversed by June 30, all new installs of Sparrow Wallet will fail, and development on macOS will end.

The context: since 2023, more than a dozen fake "Sparrow" apps have appeared on the App Store, as recently as April this year. Users have contacted me after losing their savings, in some cases their life savings, to these impersonators.

I'm the developer of the real Sparrow Wallet, a desktop app, and I hold the registered US trademarks for the name and logo. I have publicly warned @Apple and the community about these fake apps from early 2024, but they keep appearing.

The app @Apple flagged was a placeholder that was never published. Its only purpose was to warn users that Sparrow is desktop-only and that other "Sparrow" apps aren't mine. This approach may have been misguided, but there was nothing dishonest about it.

I'm confident this is an automated misclassification that Apple would reverse on review - but I may be terminated before a human ever looks at my appeal. The cost would fall on @Apple's own users: blocked installs and no updates for a tool people rely on, which opens the door for more fakes.

If you value Sparrow, a repost would help. @AppleSupport

@natbrunell I just listened to the Dr Jack Kruse speech at Prague and am wondering when you'll release your podcast with him.......

The biggest criminals in western countries are politicians..... start there.

[Arthur MacWaters @ArthurMacwaters]

The fix everything button is literally just to arrest criminals and keep them in jail

Bukele was able to do this in a matter of months

When you see the crime and rot in western cities and feel unsafe letting your wife walk around, know that it is a choice.

@BTCsessions @theBTCmentor I wonder how much our favorite government ramming through C22 is helping you?

Just like how the covid nightmare helped Bitcoin adoption.

Eitherway congrats and keep up the great work!

@BTCsessions @umbrel @Tailscale I'm trying to use Nostr VPN with my mac mini as a exit node and I'm getting there but takes time and troubleshooting

Good luck Ben

Edward Snowden said it the best:

"When you say 'I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide,' that's no different than saying 'I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say.'"

"Simply because you are following the law, doesn't mean that you'll be exempt from governmental interference in your private life."

“Hello, I’m hoping you can share this information. My daughter was walking with her friend yesterday evening when a dark grey van with 5–6 East Indian men approached them. The men tried to get them into the van, coming up with the sliding door open and yelling.

I have some videos, but we are trying to obtain the license plate or have someone identify them. Throughout the incident, they were recording the girls. It happened on a busy road (Rutherford) while it was still light out. The event occurred yesterday at 8 p.m.” - Submitted in the DMs.

You don't hate the state enough

Death Penalty would be too light

[Martyupnorth®- Unacceptable Fact Checker @Martyupnorth]

This story should make everyone absolutely furious, for a bunch of different reasons.

An 8-year-old girl named Nina Napope was killed in 2023 in Edmonton. She suffered terrible, long-term abuse and died from blunt force trauma. Her body was found in a hockey bag.

The woman caring for her, Ashley Rattlesnake, was originally charged with first-degree murder. But the the Crown later agreed to a manslaughter plea deal, meaning they accepted that she caused the death but didn't plan it as murder. WTF?

In February 2026, Rattlesnake was sentenced to 8 years in prison. After credit for time already served, she’ll only serve about 3 years and 9 months more.

The Edmonton Police were very angry about the manslaughter deal. They believed the evidence showed it was murder. For the first time ever, they wrote a strong official letter to the Crown, basically saying "This is a miscarriage of justice." They viewed
the abuse as extreme, and threatened to release all their detailed evidence to the public. They wanted the case to be tied in the court of public opinion.

This was highly unusual. Oolice are not supposed to pressure prosecutors like this.

What actually happened? The Crown did NOT change the manslaughter plea. The deal stayed the same.
The case went to sentencing. The judge was furious at the police for sending that letter. She called their actions “reprehensible” and said it was wrong for police to try to interfere.

Because of the police letter, the judge reduced the sentence by 1 year as a penalty. So the woman actually got a lighter punishment than she might have otherwise.

Now, Alberta’s police watchdog (ASIRT) is investigating the Edmonton Police for their unusual letter and conduct.

Bottom line: the police tried to publicly shame and pressure the Crown to get a harsher charge/sentence, but it backfired. The plea didn’t change, and the sentence was made shorter partly because of what the police did.

Many people are upset that the punishment seems too light for such a brutal crime against a child.

If judges are willing to do this to the police, what hopes do any of us who challenge the system have?
