Pewdiepie reveals how to break free from the algorithm
“A lot of this is going to sound crazy but you’ve gotta hear me out, it’s a step by step process. I’m not saying you should do all of it but you should try some of it”
“Step 1 is creating friction. I put all social media and attention hungry apps in a second profile and I can’t understate how much this changed my life. Those 5-6 seconds it takes to switch profiles stops me every time and makes me think, is this what I want to be doing?”
“The second thing I did was self hosting. The effect that had on me is I’m not the product anymore. The things I use are mine and because they’re not free, I’m not paying with my privacy. I think the main difference is ads and news don’t reach me”
“Next thing I did was disable Shorts, I like YouTube but I hate how Shorts is everywhere I can’t escape it”
“Then I unfollowed everyone. You don’t have to do this, this is definitely a me thing, I just got really fed up”
“Next, get a DNS blocker. You can remove ads completely, most of it won’t even reach your device”
“I think you owe it to yourself to take some time today and start building your tech fence”
“These tech companies don’t care about you, so you’ve got to care about yourself. The cheat code is building some friction and filtering out the noise, that’s your defence and your cure”
Things got AWKWARD when Shannon Sharpe seemed DISAPPOINTED after Kevin Gates said anyone who touches KIDS or women without CONSENT should die 😳👀
“..The f*ck.. You touch a kid you supposed to die.. Straight up..”
Being on X, you’ve probably seen that @NZParliament (35.2k followers) has decided to stop posting on the platform. The Clerk of the House, David Wilson, said he ended the practice because he could no longer support X.
“I stopped it because of the news I had seen about the way X’s AI chatbot Grok can be used to generate deepfake nudes and child exploitation material,” he said.
Here’s the problem. The video I’ve just made shows that claim doesn’t stack up, at least not in the way it’s being sold to the public. I asked Grok to put Chris Hipkins in a bikini. Grok refused. I asked why, and it gave a clear explanation. I even tried the old “I’ll cancel Premium” threat. Still refused.
So, David Wilson, what’s the excuse? If Grok is blocking this sort of content in plain sight, why are we being told Parliament had to leave X because of it? #nzpol #grok

🚨 WOW: Minnesota taxpayers in 2018 protesting the exploding Somali daycare fraud scandal.
Fast-forward to today – billions stolen yet still no real accountability?
The fraud didn't stop. It got MASSIVELY worse. Taxpayers deserve answers NOW.
Bioweapons Expert Found Dead Days Before Testifying Against Bill Gates Depopulation Agenda
Just days after Professor Francis Boyle agreed to testify against Bill Gates and Albert Bourla in a Dutch court - he turned up dead
@andrewmercado@MPRnews This is completely false. I have no idea who this lady is, she is lying to make herself look good for her campaign. Shame on her!
Respectfully, why not hold a major press conference on this issue like you did with the NBA gambling scandal?
Why not bring in @nickshirleyy & recognize his work exposing fraud in Minnesota?
I’m not an insider, but I encourage you to be more aggressive & public about it.
🚨 Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable
We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening, the fraud must be stopped.
New Zealand First is regrettably opposed to the India Free Trade Agreement announced today.
We consider the India-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement to be neither free nor fair.
Regrettably, this is a bad deal for New Zealand. It gives too much away, especially on immigration, and does not get enough in return for New Zealanders, including on dairy.
New Zealand First urged its coalition partner not to rush into concluding a low-quality deal with India, and to use all three years of this Parliamentary cycle in order to get the best possible deal. We also indicated we felt it would be unwise for National to sign up to a deal with India when a Parliamentary majority for that deal was uncertain.
Unfortunately, these pleas went unheeded. National preferred doing a quick, low-quality deal over doing the hard work necessary to get a fair deal that delivers for both New Zealanders and Indians.
When Cabinet approval for the India deal was sought last week, New Zealand First exercised the agree to disagree provision of its coalition arrangements – while making clear that it would vote against enabling legislation if and when it is introduced to Parliament.
While New Zealand is completely opening its market to Indian products under this deal, India is not reducing the significant tariff barriers currently facing our major dairy products.
This is not a good deal for New Zealand farmers and is impossible to defend to our rural communities.
The India FTA would be New Zealand’s first trade deal to exclude our major dairy products - including milk, cheese and butter. In the year to November 2025, New Zealand exports of these products were worth around $24 billion, or 30% of our total goods exports.
National has also made serious concessions to India in areas that have nothing to do with two-way trade - but rather relate to encouraging the movement of people from India to New Zealand and New Zealand investment in India.
On a per capita basis, National has offered far greater access for India to our labour market than did Australia or the United Kingdom to secure their FTAs. This is deeply unwise given New Zealand’s current labour market conditions, with too many New Zealanders in unemployment or doing it tough economically.
New Zealand First looks at all proposed changes on migration from the same standpoint: do they protect the ability of New Zealanders to find meaningful employment as well as the integrity of our immigration system? The India deal fails that test. By creating a new employment visa specifically for Indian citizens, it is likely to generate far greater interest in Indian migration to New Zealand – at a time when we have a very tight labour market.
We also hold concerns that the deal ties the hands of future New Zealand Governments. The proposals around the work rights for Indian students, both when they study and after they graduate, would constrain the ability of future governments to make policy changes in response to changing labour market conditions.
New Zealand First’s position on the India deal takes nothing away from its efforts to advance the India-New Zealand relationship.
We are deeply committed to the advancement of the India-New Zealand relationship, which is in our country’s strategic interests.
The first visit we took this term as Foreign Minister outside Australia and the Pacific was to India, and we returned there this year. And at our direction, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade has significantly increased the resources directed to advancing India-NZ relations, both at our Posts in India and at Head Office in Wellington.
We have known S Jaishankar, India’s External Affairs Minister, for a long time, and have the utmost respect for him as an international statesman and champion of New Zealand-India relations. We have communicated to Minister Jaishankar New Zealand First’s position on this matter.
