[Independent Jewish Voices @IndJewishVoices]

Some facts about the CASE report:

- The authors themselves state that there was “uneven mobilization across student and community networks.”
- Over 80% of the respondents came from Ontario or Quebec, and only one came from Saskatchewan. National representativeness? Definitely not!
- Examples of incidents in Appendix C includes professors wearing pro-Palestinian earrings and putting on Al Jazeera during class.
- McGill university alone accounted for around 15% of respondents.
- Sources for the report’s terminology include a right wing American magazine.
- The sample was neither random nor weighted.
- The report relies on claims from another survey that hasn’t even been published yet.

In conclusion, the CASE report should not be taken seriously at all. Read our full response: https://t.co/t8ahBixMpv

I'll have more to say on this soon. I've covered body image in Hollywood for a while. While we don't know what Ariana is going through privately, this seems coordinated and calculated. She drops her album two days ago, releases a music video literally about being thin, where she shows off her emaciated body, and suddenly her team is upset there's "scrutiny" of her public image? You can't have it both ways. She does this cat and mouse game. Her song is called "petal" and she paints herself as this thin delicate flower, showing off every bone and rib, then it's 'how dare you' discuss her body. There's literally a scene in the video about her weight. I hope she does take some time off to reflect and get well. But she's playing into things herself. She's very online and likes to feed the beast. Then she's a victim of public scrutiny. We're not allowed to discuss? Ok...

An IDF soldier traveled to a University in Toronto and physically assaulted students and is now suing the local newspaper that reported on it

[Samira Mohyeddin سمیرا @SMohyeddin]

IDF soldier Jonathan Karten came to Toronto last year and manhandled TMU students and now he is suing our Toronto local @TheGrindTO for covering it. This is an important legal fight. They want to kill journalists in Gaza & kill journalism everywhere else.

They tell you Flock cameras are there to fight crime.

So I pulled the actual police logs from my new favorite website (haveibeenflocked . com). 233 million searches that they have been able to get via FOIA requests and here's what "fighting crime" actually looks like:

> 84% had no case number at all
> The most common reason a cop typed in the box? Blank, nothing
> Only about 9% were even tagged as a real crime.
> "Test" and "training" show up as reasons, run on real people's cars
> The FBI and Homeland Security were wired into local camera networks your town never signed off on.

So what is Flock?

FLOCK: 100,000+ plate cameras bolted to poles across America. They read your plate everywhere you drive and never forget.

NOVA: Flock's AI that turns your plate into you. Your name, address, family, everyone you know, in seconds, no warrant.

SIGNALTRACE: a competitor's tool that tracks the Bluetooth off your phone, your AirPods, your watch. Doesn't even need your plate.

Then I followed the money and the lead investor behind Flock also funds an Israeli company that can hack cameras and change the footage. Another lead investor backs a 911 app that flips on your phone's camera and mic. Trace it all the way back and you hit a former Israeli prime minister and Jeffrey Epstein's money.

This is the third time in six months that Benjamin Netanyahu has flown through Canadian airspace.

Contrary to the GAC spokesperson’s claim, he does not have the freedom to make that decision. Foreign leaders are required to seek permission before doing so.

Netanyahu is also wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes. As a member of the ICC, Canada has a duty to arrest him if he enters the country.

Has the government been knowingly shirking its responsibility and allowing a wanted war criminal to fly through our airspace? If he is flying through without permission, why not say so?

Allowing this to pass without consequence sets a dangerous precedent. Canadians deserve a clear answer.

[Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East @CJPME]

There are two possibilities here. Either 1) Canada granted permission for Netanyahu to enter our airspace, facilitating the movement of an ICC fugitive, or 2) Netanyahu defied Canada and violated our airspace. apparently without any consequences from @MarkJCarney. Which is it?

[Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East @CJPME]

🚨 For the 3rd time in 7 months, Netanyahu has entered Canadian airspace en route to the United States.

As a signatory to the Rome Statute, Canada is obliged to enforce the ICC arrest warrants against Netanyahu. Instead, @MarkJCarney is allowing him to circumvent justice and avoid any consequences for his war crimes and crimes against humanity.

According to protocol, foreign state flights must seek permission before entering Canadian airspace, which should be submitted at least 72 hours in advance.

Why does Carney continue to give safe passage to this war criminal? Canada should deny diplomatic clearance and close the airspace to ICC fugitives.

btw anthropic's internal document on this literally said "we don't want it to be known that we are working on this.”

it was called project panama.

here's exactly what happened:

1: anthropic concluded that books were the cheapest way to build a world-class model because they gave claude curated facts, structured arguments, compelling stories, and writing “an editor would approve of.”

2: once anthropic decided it needed books at enormous scale, its first solution was piracy.

it downloaded 7m+ books from online libraries including libgen. the judge later wrote that although anthropic had legal ways to buy them, it chose piracy to avoid what dario amodei called the “legal/practice/business slog.”

3: that piracy created a massive legal risk.

so in february 2024, anthropic hired tom turvey, the former head of partnerships for google books, to find a legally safer way of obtaining “all the books in the world.”

4: turvey first contacted major publishers about licensing their catalogs.

those attempts didn’t produce agreements, so anthropic chose a route that required no publisher permission: buying millions of physical books through distributors and used-book retailers.

5: within about a year, anthropic spent tens of millions acquiring and scanning millions of books, including many rare and 1/1 titles. one vendor proposal targeted 500,000 to 2 million books in six months.

6: to scan that many books within months, the vendors physically dismantled them.

a hydraulic cutter removed each spine. the pages were trimmed to size, fed as loose sheets through high-speed industrial scanners, and converted into searchable PDFs. the paper remains were then sent for recycling.

7: these PDFs were fed into claude as training data.

the complete collection became a private, searchable anthropic library that the company planned to “store forever.” the scans aren’t available to the public and were never open-sourced.

The community note needs to go . Johnny Depp is in fact a rapist . Everyone loves to skip over the UK case which is still very much standing and where he was found to be a wife beating rapist . The Va court does NOT erase the prior case at all . So stop acting like it does .

[Clever!! @opinionatededed]

@retrostyleNINJA @LauraStillSlay Imagine not knowing what the court case in Virginia was even about if that was your takeaway lol

[Tom Broome-Jones @tbroomey]

Depp was box office poison before the trial. His movies consistently flopped, he developed a reputation for being hard to work with, and new projects existed in the depths of streaming menus.

Why do we pretend he was this massive movie star, unfairly struck down in his prime?

@ellesarie @DiscussingFilm He’s a proven wife beater in UK court, which evidence was a much higher standard. The US court was a sham for the cameras and they actually settled afterwards so you’re just stupid actually.
