On one hand, predictive policing never works and this is clearly an infringement of the right to political expression and free speech. On the other hand... oh wait. No, that's it.
Remember guys, they wouldn't threaten us with surveillance if they weren't all so afraid.
@jonoland11@PhilipProudfoot I was talking about your pedantism about "islands" - Britain has a sovereign claim to the fawklands due to an establishment on the west which moved onto the east island after abandonment without sovereign claim
Our yearlong investigation reveals Nigel Farage courting illicit funding as part of a plot to bring foreign money into British politics, orchestrated by his top aides and caught on hidden camera.
Big Tech is so deeply embedded into our decision making bodies, as well as our national and local politics. Legislative loopholes will be weaponised against us, and flashy headlines about Apple running to the defence of UK citizens cannot be believed from the get-go.
Big Tech isn't on our side. It never has, and never will be.
Human extinction is now the main scenario.
As the UK passes 5 days of 35C or more before the end of June those of you who understand that 2+2=4 , regardless of what you want it to equal, may wish to remind yourselves of why human extinction is now the main scenario... meaning seeing (or rather feeling hot) is believing....
"2027 will likely soar to between 1.7°C and 1.8°C for the calendar year average."
"Permanently passing 2°C next decade now seems unavoidable."
"This places the planet squarely in the danger zone for a number of the great tipping elements including the West Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets, Boreal Permafrost abrupt thawing, Ocean Current disruption and Amazon collapse."
And this final quote requires translation into normal language...
"We can only hope that these upcoming systemic shocks finally jolt global leadership and the voting public into treating the crisis with the structural seriousness it demands."
"With structural seriousness it demands" means millions of people go on the streets and remove the regime - revolutions.
"The crisis" means billions of people die quick violent deaths due to social breakdown or slow agonising deaths due to starvation.

Israeli Quadcopter drones were used in Gaza to emit the sound of a baby crying.
When people rushed to help what they thought was a baby suffering, they were shot.
This is what the Filton 24 did to one of those Quadcopter drones.
@AccountRam66302@EdbieLigerSmith It's less about mass spontaneous protest, it's about sustained mass protest - if even half the attendees did this day after day, causing maximum disruption to the economy, things would change
@AccountRam66302@EdbieLigerSmith The two are intrinsically linked - when people treat protest as a day out, they are personally emboldening the controlled opposition internally and externally and, therefore, the strength of the state
Pigs don't just feel fear themselves. They also feel the fear of other pigs — and try to comfort them.
In one study, pigs watching another pig in distress first showed fear themselves and then tried to comfort the distressed pig through snout-to-snout contact. Pigs who'd previously endured the same ordeal reacted even more intensely — they seemed to recognize what the distressed pig was going through. (Goumon & Špinka, 2016.)
On factory farms, pigs trapped in gestation crates aren't just feeling afraid themselves. They're feeling the fear of all the other pigs around them. But the crate's iron bars stop them from even turning toward their fellow pigs — let alone comforting them with their snout.
