Wise words that everyone should follow.
Be there for the ones you love, and let them know about it
Here's my advice, hug everyone you love a lot tighter. Never leave someone in an argument. Be present. Say I love you way too much. Take a lot of pictures with the ones you love. You never know when it'll be the last time you see them. Please don't take any second for granted.
This is what the UK spyware proposal means.
There must be government spyware on every mobile device. It shall watch everything that happens, including always watching the screen, looking for things the government disapproves of.
When anything is flagged by the software as something the government doesn't like, the software must block it from being sent or displayed (in realtime).
The user of the device must not be able to shut this watching and blocking off. The only way to shut it off would be to ask the government or its proxies to do so for you, at their discretion.
Therefore the whole device must be locked down. Administrator rights and the decision of what software or operating system to run or not to run must be taken from the owner/user and handed to the government and its proxies.
Apple and Google are themselves working hard to lock down the devices they are involved in to shut out competition and establish a duopoly.
The UK government says it is "working closely" with Apple and Google and currently they synchronise and coordinate their communication on this subject.
The UK government is now proposing to mandate what would otherwise be illegal anti-competitive practices.

Cash is freedom.
The push toward a cashless society is directly linked to Digital ID, programmable money and centralised financial control.
Once every transaction is digital and tied to your identity, governments and banks gain the power to monitor, restrict or freeze economic activity at the press of a button.
A Restore Britain government will protect your legal right to use cash.
https://t.co/RwA5bkiKoC One Login is now the standard route for every new HMRC user.
“HMRC services are among the largest and most-used digital services in government.” - Lucy Leonard, HMRC onboarding lead at GDS.
This is creeping full centralisation of your taxes, wealth, assets and address into one single login. One profile and one MASSIVE honeypot.
This will create a single point of failure for huge data breaches (which happen regularly), enables total tracking across government services, and paves the way for biometric requirements next.
On top of that, centralised data like this creates real physical danger, turning people into targets for wrench attacks and coercion (see article below).
All of this for 'easier login'?
It’s pointless and dangergerious. Centralisation doesn’t make us safer, it makes us easier targets.

We see strange comments like this every time the Bitcoin price tumbles.
I wrote along the following lines roughly two years ago, addressed to anyone new to Bitcoin and attracted by the rising price. I still stand by them now…
I can offer you only three pieces of advice about Bitcoin with any certainty (and these are my firm opinions, not financial advice of any kind):
1. At some point, the Bitcoin price will drop.
2. When it does, there will be a flood of articles from journalists, from governments and from central banks, all declaring that Bitcoin is dead.
3. Bitcoin will not die.
The last of these points is the most important, and where I'd suggest you begin your journey. It’s absolutely crucial to ask “Why won’t Bitcoin die?” and try to come up with a better answer than those bankers and journalists who have failed to provide a satisfactory response to this question over the past fifteen years.
You may come to realise that the financial system, and the way money is created, are gratuitously unfair, and that this unfairness is buried deep in the way that our systems operate, so deeply that it is barely visible and rarely thought about.
You may realise that if you're not born into a vanishingly small percentile of the population, then the dice are loaded against you from the first day of your life, and that all your efforts to change your destiny by exchanging your time and your work for government-issued money will be undone, by the ability of governments and central banks to create that money from nothing, and to ensure that it flows to those closest to the point of creation – and not to you.
You may realise that your time, and your work, will be debased and diluted by the actions of governments and banks throughout your life, and like Alice Through the Looking Glass you will have to sprint alongside the Red Queen of the financial system for all of your days; sprinting just to stay in the same place, and ever at risk of falling behind.
At that point, "It might make sense just to get some in case it catches on."
#NoDigitalID Ireland to be the testing ground in Europe for Chinese-style mandatory Digital ID to access social media. The Irish government are planning to restrict access to social media to those who comply with mandatory Digital ID, linked to MyGovID. By connecting social media to the already controversial MyGovID means that every web page access could be traced back to a specific holder of a Public Services Card in Ireland. A Public Services Card is required to sign up to MyGovID, which is the online portal to access social welfare benefits and tax details, amongst other public services. The plan by the Irish government to link MyGovID to access social media is already underway with a pilot to take place in the first quarter of 2026. They will try to get this dangerous government overreach over the line under the guise of protecting under 16 year olds from the harms of social media. This is mandatory Digital ID through the back door. If you do not comply you will be frozen out of social media.
Ireland was the testing ground in Europe for the draconian COVID Pass, by removing the option of a rapid antigen test to coerce people to take the vaccine. As a result 700,000 out of 770,000 of our young people in Ireland aged 18 to 24 took the vaccine to participate in society, the highest level in Europe if not the world. Ireland is to become a testing ground once again. What better way to COERCE Irish people to comply with Digital ID than to freeze them out of accessing social media?.
If the government succeed in getting their draconian plans over the line it will mark the most monumental attack on online free speech in Irish history, as it will give those in power the right to monitor everything we say online It is a sinister plan to get mandatory Digital ID through the back door. What is to stop successive governments from implementing a social credit system if you say something online that is against the narrative of the establishment?. Your social welfare benefits and right to work could be restricted by this massive government overreach, if you step out of line. Digital ID is a precursor for CBDC and a cashless society. The EU is in the process of implementing a European Central Bank digital euro. If we go along with this we will be transposed into a CBDC Digital ID cashless society whereby your every financial transaction will be tracked, and your access to money can be stopped.
If we do not RESIST this with all our might we face the end of humanity as we know it. A digital prison surveillance planet whereby the global corporations, governments and Bankers have complete control over every aspect of our lives.
It is up to us to push back against these draconian plans with all our might. We defeated the government's Referendum. We staved off the controversial Hate Speech 'thought police' Bill. We secured the highest ever spoilt votes in Irish history and, indeed, in Europe. We CAN defeat this attack on our fundamental rights and freedoms IF we join as a cohesive force against the government's plans for a Chinese-style dystopian surveillance society. We owe it to future generations to push back with all our might.

These men created tools of freedom and financial independence. They wrote code and ran businesses. They are good people.
They were rewarded with federal prison sentences.

Free the crypto prisoners.
⚡️The thing that stops most men from reaching their potential is that they live their entire life inside someone else’s script.
Everything else is downstream.
Here is the real structure:
1. They never build their own internal operating system
Most men inherit their beliefs, fears, ambitions, and limits from their parents, school, culture, or a boss.
They never sit alone long enough to ask:
What do I actually want, and what am I willing to suffer for?
Without an internal compass, they drift.
Drift kills potential more than failure ever will.
2. They fear the cost of transformation
Reaching actual potential requires destroying who you currently are.
Most men want improvement without death.
They want growth without sacrifice.
They want confidence without risk.
They want discipline without discomfort.
The bill always comes due.
Most don’t pay it.
3. They drown in short term sedation
Porn
Food
Comfort
Scrolling
Cheap dopamine
Numbing routines
Each one feels harmless.
But together they anesthetize a man’s hunger.
Potential requires hunger.
Sedation kills it.
4. They avoid confronting their true weaknesses
Most men will do anything except look in the mirror without excuses. They would rather stay mediocre than admit exactly where they’re inadequate.
Ego blocks evolution.
Humility opens the door, but pride keeps it locked.
5. They underestimate how much time they actually don’t have
Potential assumes a long runway.
Mortality does not.
Most men behave like they have infinite time to get serious.
They don’t.
Life is short.
Wasting ten years is easy.
Recovering from it is not.
6. They align with the wrong people
Potential requires momentum.
Most men spend their life around people with none.
Wrong circle, wrong energy, wrong incentives.
You absorb their limits.
You inherit their ceiling.
7. They have never seen their full capacity for real intensity
Most men don’t know what they’re capable of because they’ve never been forced to operate at their true edge.
Potential requires sustained pressure.
Most men avoid pressure.
Therefore they never find the boundary of who they could be.
If you want a one sentence answer:
Most men never reach their potential because they never become the kind of man who can carry the weight required to reach it.
I hope more MPs will join me in stating we will not comply with Digital ID.
The British people need to stand up and say they will not accept it.
MPs must lead.
🚨 We’ve launched our campaign against Digital ID cards – a Blairite plan.
We say NO to:
• Privacy & surveillance
• Hacking
• Threat to freedom & civil liberties
• Excluding older generations
• Function creep
Freedom lost = freedom gone. RT & share! 🔀
As an MP, I will not comply with Digital ID.
I just won't do it, and I hope many millions of British men and women will join me.
Send a message to Starmer - share this graphic absolutely everywhere.
I will not comply with Digital ID.
Digital ID for every adult is not progress. It is the end of a free society dressed up as convenience.
I am a cyber security specialist. This is my take.
They are selling it as a fix for illegal migration. That is bollocks.
We spend hundreds of billions a year on cyber security and yet the volume of breaches is breaking records. The threat is growing faster than the spend.
Digital ID will not stop boats. It will not stop trafficking gangs. It will not fix a broken border.
Criminals will work around it.
Honest citizens will pay the price.
It builds giant data banks that track where you go, what you buy, what you read and who you speak to.
It links your identity to every checkpoint in daily life.
One breach and your life is exposed.
Look at Jaguar Land Rover and the airports in recent weeks. Now imagine that at national scale on an ID system tied to everything you need to live your daily life.
Here is the risk that ministers will not admit.
Ransomware seeded through a supplier or an insider:
It lies quiet for months.
It rolls through the backups.
On trigger day the register and the recovery sets are both encrypted.
Payments fail. Health and benefits stall. Borders slow. Citizens are frozen out until a ransom is paid or the state rebuilds from scratch.
Centralise identity and you centralise failure.
Do not fall for the pitch.
Function creep is certain.
It starts as login.
It becomes access to money, travel, speech and public services.
It turns rights into permissions controlled by the state and its contractors.
It creates a single point of failure for criminals, insiders and hostile states to target.
It will punish the elderly, the poor and anyone who is not always online.
It will centralise risk and outsource blame.
It will not stop fraud.
It will not stop illegal migration.
It will build the machinery for a social credit system by stealth.
If ministers cared about the border, they would enforce current laws, resource patrols and processing, close loopholes and remove those with no right to stay.
You do not need a national ID to do any of that.
We scrapped ID cards in 2010 for a reason.
Britain does not need a central register to prove age or status.
Yes to privacy first proofs. No to a database state.
Which part about what she said was racist? There was never a mention of colour. Granted that it was written in poor taste, but even so, there was nothing racist about it. Assuming all migrants are of non-white is racist in itself. A migrant can be anything. The fact they are here illegally, from a safe country (France is not war-torn, no matter how much people who claim it is, which is offensive to the French...), is the main issue here. Put yourself in her shoes, frustrated, angry, emotions riding high, later realising after calming down that what you said was very poorly thought out... Deleted it... Then handcuffed, carted off to a cell, told that if you plead guilty so you can be home by Christmas... You have to bear in mind that these days, because things drag out, the process IS the punishment. Being coerced into admitting guilt to something you're not guilty of (and is HIGHLY subjective) is not a "clear cut" case.
@KarlPenter @trussliz Can you elaborate on why you think she's a national disgrace? 🤔 Genuinely curious
Please Sign this petition to STOP Digital I.D and please Repost and Share thanks.
We must stop this infringement on our liberty. 🙏✊

One Good Decision Can Compound Into More Good Decisions.
Council tax increases each year, for which we see less from it
Energy bill increases (not technically a "tax" per-se, but a requirement to live)
Capital gains tax increased last Autumn budget
And finally the largest "stealth" tax: Inflation, paired with frozen tax thresholds
We get yearly pay rises to make us feel good, but for the majority of people they don't outpace inflation (real inflation, not the cherry-picked CPI stat). This pushes more and more of us over the tax thresholds, but everything costs more - our purchasing power is being decimated every year.
Now add in the NI tax increase to employers which gets passed onto employees which results in even smaller pay rises.
The lowering of everyone's purchasing power is pushing more people into poverty, by taking into account all of the above
I heard someone today say “we shouldn’t pretend Tornado Cash isn’t used for illicit purposes”.
I don’t pretend Tornado Cash is used for one thing or another - it’s none of my business what people use software for. It’s also not anyone else’s business what anyone does with their money.
It’s not “illicit” to move money. Moving money is not a legitimate crime.
ALL surveillance and control, all AML KYC and all violations of privacy are completely unethical, immoral and illegitimate.
All of them.
We have to go along with this because the tyrants pushing these horrible things have guns - but none of it has any place in a free society.
Moving money and having privacy is not a legit crime. There is no victim.
If someone moves money for a purpose that is in violation of a legitimate law then the law enforcement can chase them for that legitimate crime. (A legitimate law is a crime against someone’s life, body or property. It has an a direct clear victim. No other laws are legitimate or ethical.)
It’s wrong to treat the whole world as criminal suspects and to force draconian regulations on everyone. It’s wrong to threaten, fine or jail people for paperwork or other made up violations which harm no one.
This is all a very new and very bad idea.
Almost none of this existed only 30 years ago.
For most of human history the idea that thug tyrants in high offices had the right to visibility to who owns what and where and how it’s transferred would have been considered absurd.
Even some of the most totalitarian regimes did not have as tight of financial controls as we have now.
People didn’t even need an ID to buy stocks until the 90s.
The tyrants have made people lose the plot and think that privacy or moving money without filing out some forms is a “crime”.
This entire thing should be scrapped. There’s no legitimate case for this. Money should be able to move freely.
“I see you deposited $8000. We need to know where it came from.”
“I see you are withdrawing $3400 cash to buy a rare Magic the Gathering card…not so fast, we need some forms.”
Gets out of here.
Totally immoral. Unethical. No one should support this.
We need to fight much harder - not just for cases like Roman — but at a bigger picture level.
Every conversation with every politician and regulator should note that ALL regs related to KYC and AML are illegitimate, anti business, anti freedom and a human rights violation. All should be scrapped.
“But Bruce what about the terrrorrooorrrrrrrists and the child traffickers 😭 think of the children!”
That’s the problem of the terrorists and traffickers - chase them. Don’t treat the other 4 billion of us like criminals. Don’t grind down the wheels of the global economy and create friction on a trillion transactions — go do some police work. Not my problem. Money movement should be free.
Privacy is a human right.
