Your TV might be one of 216,000,000 LG smart TVs sold worldwide.

Researchers rooted one and pulled plain text transcripts of what people said in the room.

It kept recording while the screen looked off.

If your TV can do that, it’s time to look at everything else on your desk👇🏻

Καίγεται η Κόνιτσα.

Έχουμε φτάσει σε αυτό το σημείο παρακμής, που οι χρόνιες περικοπές σε πυροσβεστική, αεροπλάνα, εξοπλισμό, είναι ανήμπορα να ανταπεξέλθουν.

Καίγεται το βόρειο Πάπιγκο, καίγονται τα χωριά μας, τα ζώα, τα δάση, τα πάντα - και ούτε κιχ από όσους κυβερνούν.

Κύριε Υπουργέ @NikosDendias,

Μέχρι πρόσφατα τουρκικά UAV καταγράφονταν να κινούνται ανάμεσα στα ελληνικά νησιά πέραν των 6 ΝΜ. Τώρα βλέπουμε τουρκικό Bayraktar TB2 να περιπολεί εντός ΕΕΧ μεταξύ ελληνικών νησιών σε αποστάσεις της τάξης του 1–2 ΝΜ.

Δεν μιλάμε πλέον για την πάγια τουρκική αμφισβήτηση του ελληνικού Εθνικού Εναέριου Χώρου μεταξύ 6 και 10 ΝΜ.

Μιλάμε για ευθεία παραβίαση ελληνικής εθνικής κυριαρχίας που γίνεται σε νησιά που έχουν επισημανθεί επί σειρά ετών από την τουρκική πλευρά ως ακαθόριστης κυριαρχίας (γκρίζες ζώνες).

Είστε άμεσα υπεύθυνός και υπόλογος για την ανοχή σας στη σύγχρονη κανονικότητα παραβίασης από τουρκικά drones της εθνικής μας κυριαρχίας.

Αναλάβετε τις ευθύνες σας.

Δράστε ή παραιτηθείτε.

🦔AI companies are bulk-buying rare books, scanning them through high-speed machines that cut the spines off, and shredding the originals. A service called ISBNdb facilitates orders of up to a million books and keeps buyers anonymous. Pre-2022 books are premium because they're free of AI-generated text. A federal judge ruled the practice is fair use because eliminating the original means only one copy exists at a time. Anthropic hired the former head of Google Books partnerships to obtain "all the books in the world."

My Take
This got to me. A bookseller told 404 Media that rare books with almost no surviving copies are being fed into this pipeline. Books that survived wars, fires, and centuries of handling are being shredded so an AI can learn to write a better marketing email.
ISBNdb's website literally says "'AI company destroys two million books' is not a headline that generates sympathy," and they still built an entire business around making it happen quietly. They offer NDAs as a feature. They coach clients to call it "digital preservation."

I've covered AI companies scraping the internet, torrenting libraries, and stealing music. This is worse because it's irreversible. You can re-upload a website. You can reprint a bestseller. You can't replace the last three copies of an 18th-century botanical text once someone shreds them for training data. And the judge said it's legal. So it's going to accelerate.
"We shred rare books and offer NDAs so nobody finds out" is a legitimate business model in 2026. What a timeline.

Today is a dark day for freedom and democracy in Europe. General chat surveillance has been implemented in Brussels. A disgrace.

The so-called Chat Control 1.0 cleared a crucial hurdle in the European Parliament today. This means platforms may once again be allowed to scan private messages, officially on a “voluntary” basis, but in practice this marks the return of indiscriminate monitoring of private communication.

What makes this especially bitter is that a majority of the MEPs who voted were reportedly against it. According to Patrick Breyer, 314 MEPs voted against the regulation, 276 voted in favor and 17 abstained. And yet the rejection failed because it was not enough to have a simple majority of those voting. An absolute majority of all MEPs would have been required.

That is the democratic scandal.

When a majority of those present votes against a proposal and it still passes because a formal threshold is not reached, it does not feel like democratic decision-making to many citizens. It feels like a procedural trick.

And it becomes even more problematic when you look at the context: Chat Control had already been rejected before. Yet the issue was put back on the agenda shortly before the summer break, through an urgent procedure, at a time when absences could become decisive.

This is not just some technical regulation. It goes to the very core of private communication. It is about whether digital messages remain fundamentally private or whether platforms may systematically scan content again, without concrete suspicion, without a court order and without any individual cause.

A free society must not turn private communication into a potential surveillance zone. Anyone who takes digital fundamental rights seriously cannot accept millions of innocent people being placed under general suspicion.

Today, a dangerous signal was sent: fundamental rights can be hollowed out through procedural logic, timing and political tricks. Not through an open, clear and honest majority, but through a system in which absence effectively helps the supporters.

This is a dark day for Europe.

Not because the fight is over, but because today showed how easily digital fundamental rights come under pressure when surveillance logic, symbolic politics and institutional tricks come together.

Anyone who wants a free internet, anyone who wants to protect private communication and anyone who takes democracy seriously should talk about this.

Share this issue. Inform yourself. Look at who voted how. And never forget: freedom rarely disappears all at once. It disappears step by step, often in technical details, often in complicated procedures and often exactly when too few people are watching.

Chris Nolan desecrated the Odyssey so that he would be eligible for an Academy Award …

[Homer Pavlos @HomerPavlos]

The production of Christopher Nolan received permission for 15 days of filming in Greece with a budget of 16 million euros. The Greek state gave them 6 million as a subsidy from the money of Greek taxpayers, who were never informed about the cast of the film or the distortion of the most important work in our history.

The issue here is not that they received money. We Greeks would gladly have given all 16 million for Nolan to shoot a faithful Odyssey. But it should have been a film that properly represents us Greeks, Hellenism and stays true to the values and writings of Homer. Not so we Greeks could pay for a Black Helen and Clytemnestra, a Batman-like Agamemnon, a trans Achilles or Elpenor (a woman playing a male role), a Black Athena, and a script based on the worst possible "translation" that exists.

In short, Nolan disrespected all Greeks, while the Greek people are now officially in the crosshairs of racism and the falsification of their history and culture. Woke Hollywood must die.
