The U.S. Army tick release program is not a theory. It is a matter of congressional record — Representative Chris Smith introduced the Tick-Borne Disease Working Group provision specifically to investigate whether the Department of Defense conducted experiments involving ticks and tick-borne diseases between 1950 and 1975. Plum Island Animal Disease Center sits nine miles off the coast of Lyme Connecticut — the town that gave the disease its name. The timing, the geography, and the declassified documents connecting biological research to vector deployment are not coincidental. Alpha-Gal eliminating red meat consumption in affected populations while Gates simultaneously funds lab-grown meat as the replacement is either the most remarkable coincidence in modern medicine or it isn't. The documents exist. The funding is public record. The question is whether anyone is willing to connect what is already visible.
10,000% RISE IN ALPHA-GAL SYNDROME DEMANDS IMMEDIATE FBI INVESTIGATION FOR POSSIBLE BIOTERRORISM:
1. Farmers reporting mysterious boxes of ticks and possible aircraft drops.
2. Peer-reviewed paper says it's “morally obligatory” to release GMO ticks that spread Alpha-Gal Syndrome.
3. Bill Gates is spending MILLIONS funding GMO tick technology.
4. Gates also funds lab-grown/fake meat that doesn’t contain alpha-gal.
5. The U.S. Army previously released 270,000+ ticks into the wild for bioweapons research.
You paid Avast to block trackers.
Avast was the tracker.
435 million users. 6 years of selling your full browsing history. Every search, every site, every location.
The FTC caught them in 2024. $16.5 million fine. Here is the full story and how to stay safe.
Avast was one of the biggest free antivirus companies in the world. At its peak it had 435 million active users. Its entire marketing pitch was simple: install us, and we will block the trackers that follow you across the web.
Millions of people trusted that pitch. Most still have it installed.
In January 2020, Motherboard and PCMag published leaked Avast internal documents. The truth: since 2014, Avast had been collecting the full browsing history of its users and selling it.
The data was sold through a quiet subsidiary nobody had heard of, called Jumpshot. This was not a leak. It was the business model.
What Jumpshot was actually selling, in the FTC's own words: "detailed, re-identifiable browsing data." That data included "religious beliefs, health concerns, political leanings, location, financial status, visits to child-directed content."
Each URL came with a precise timestamp and a unique device identifier.
Avast's defense was that the data was "anonymized." The FTC said that was the lie. Every URL came with a unique device ID and a precise timestamp. Any company holding its own customer data could match those timestamps and identify the real person behind the clicks.
Anonymous in theory. Trackable in practice.
The data was sold to over 100 different companies. One contract, with the advertising giant Omnicom in December 2017, paid Jumpshot about $2 million a year. In exchange, Omnicom received an "All Clicks Feed" covering 50% of Jumpshot's entire user base across the US, UK, Mexico, Australia, Canada and Germany. Every URL clicked, across all domains.
The contract also let Omnicom map Jumpshot's user IDs to identifiers from data broker Neustar and LiveRamp. In plain English: re-identify the people.
The timeline:
-August 2014: Avast starts feeding browsing data to Jumpshot.
-2018: Jumpshot says it has data from 100 million devices.
-January 27, 2020: Motherboard and PCMag publish the leak.
-January 30, 2020: Avast shuts Jumpshot down 3 days later.
-February 2024: The FTC files formal charges.
-June 2024: $16.5 million fine. Permanent ban.
What the FTC ordered Avast to do, on top of the fine: delete every dataset given to Jumpshot. Delete every algorithm trained on that data. Get explicit consent before selling any browsing data ever again. Notify every affected user. About 3.6 million Americans were eligible for refunds. The claim window closed June 5, 2025.
So how do you actually stay safe.
Step 1. If you are on Windows 10 or 11, you already have Microsoft Defender built in. It is free. It updates automatically. PCMag, AV-TEST and AV-Comparatives all rank it as a top-tier antivirus every year. You do not need anything else.
To confirm it is on: open Settings, click Privacy and Security, click Windows Security, click Virus and Threat Protection, confirm "Real-time protection" is On. That is the entire setup.
Step 2. On Mac, you do not need a third-party antivirus at all. macOS already has Gatekeeper, XProtect and App Sandbox built in. They scan every app before it runs. Apple's malware database updates automatically in the background. If you want extra protection once a month, Malwarebytes Free is the most respected free name in that space.
Step 3. On any device, also remove these: any browser "security" extension you do not recognize. Any free VPN you do not pay for, because most sell your traffic. Any antivirus you installed years ago and forgot about.
If the software is free and it touches your browsing, it has a way of making money. Usually with your data.
The bigger lesson from the Avast story.
Free software is never actually free. Someone is always paying. Often it is you, with data you did not know you were giving.
Before you install anything next, ask one question.
If I am not paying for it, what is the product.
Dark chocolate is the only confectionery with a press team. "It's basically a superfood," people murmur, snapping off a square with the solemnity of someone taking a vitamin. Start with the word that sells it.
Antioxidants. The flavanols everyone cites are the cacao plant's own defence chemicals, and they barely survive your digestion. Rather than mopping up oxidation, they cause a little of it, a flicker of stress that mildly poisons your cells and forces your body to switch on its own repair machinery. The benefit, such as it is, comes from your system scrambling to neutralise a plant toxin. The marketing sells you the toxin and takes the credit for the cleanup.
Now the metals. Cacao is a bioaccumulator. It hauls cadmium up from the soil and picks up lead as the beans dry on roadside tarps. In 2022 Consumer Reports tested 28 dark bars and found both metals in every one. For 23 of them, an ounce a day pushed an adult past a recognised level of concern. Cadmium then settles into your kidneys for decades and sends no notification.
While it sits there, the oxalates in the same cocoa get to work building kidney stones, and the pesticide residues from intensive cocoa farming ride along uninvited.
And the crop itself is an ecological disaster, most of it grown on cleared West African rainforest, a good deal inside protected parks, much of it by child labour everyone deplores for a fortnight at a time.
So enjoy your square. Just retire the word medicine. You are eating a metal-laced, stone-building plant toxin, and calling the damage a health benefit.
Governments delete webpages. Agencies scrub reports. Politicians' statements vanish from official sites the week they become inconvenient.
It happens in every country, under every party, and it works because nobody kept a copy.
ArchiveBox makes keeping a copy trivial.
It's a self-hosted archiver built for exactly this. Point it at the pages that matter and it freezes them:
→ Timestamped screenshots and PDFs
→ Raw HTML and HTTP headers
→ WARC files that replay the page as it was
→ Scheduled re-captures, so you have a record of every version over time
Run it on a schedule against government portals, news sites, or any source you expect to change quietly. Each snapshot lands in a plain folder with JSON metadata.
The Wayback Machine can't watch everything, and it can be pressured, sued, or blocked.
A thousand people each archiving what they care about cannot be.
History gets rewritten by whoever controls the record. This puts a copy of the record on your disk.

Denmark has introduced a wonderful initiative that converts old buses into mobile grocery stores, specially designed to serve elderly residents in rural and remote areas.
These repurposed buses are fully equipped with wheelchair ramps, heating and air-conditioning systems, refrigerators, and shelves stocked with fresh local produce, dairy, and baked goods. They follow fixed routes and schedules, bringing essential groceries directly to seniors who may find it difficult to travel to regular supermarkets.
Beyond providing practical access to food, the service helps older adults maintain their independence while offering valuable social interaction for those who might otherwise feel isolated. The mobile stores have become a thoughtful and effective solution for supporting aging communities.
Did you know? 🎓
Deputy thinks an Acorn hitting the roof of his car is gunfire so he unloaded his firearm at his own car that had an unarmed suspect inside. This is next level incompetence.
The incident took place in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Deputies from the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call regarding a man named Marquis Jackson.
Jackson’s girlfriend had called the police, accusing him of stealing her car and sending her threatening text messages.
Deputies located Jackson, detained him, handcuffed him behind his back, and placed him in the backseat of a standard patrol vehicle for questioning.
Deputy Jesse Hernandez, a trainee at the time, was walking back toward the patrol vehicle where Jackson was being held. As he approached the passenger side of the car, a small acorn fell from an overhead tree and struck the roof of the vehicle.
Because of the metallic thud it made on the roof, Deputy Hernandez misidentified the sound as a muffled gunshot from inside the vehicle. What followed was a massive cascade of panic:
Hernandez immediately fell to the ground, rolled, and began screaming, "Shots fired! Shots fired! I'm hit! I'm hit!"
Believing he had been shot in the torso and that Jackson was actively firing at him through the car windows, Hernandez drew his weapon and fired multiple rounds into the patrol car.
Hearing her partner’s screams and weapon fire, Sergeant Beth Roberts—who was also on the scene—assumed they were under fire. She drew her weapon and also opened fire on the vehicle.
In total, the two officers fired more than 20 rounds into the patrol car.
Despite the patrol car being riddled with bullets and shattered glass, Marquis Jackson was completely uninjured. Because he was handcuffed, he could only lean away and press himself as low as possible into the floorboard/seat crack of the vehicle to avoid the gunfire.
Deputy Hernandez was also not injured. After the dust settled, medical staff confirmed he had not been shot; his belief that he was hit was likely a psychological reaction to intense panic (often referred to as a phantom injury).
The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office conducted an extensive internal investigation into the shooting.
The investigation concluded that Deputy Hernandez’s use of force was not objectively reasonable. While Hernandez genuinely believed he was under threat, the investigation found no evidence of any weapon on Jackson, nor any reasonable justification for mistaking an acorn for a gunshot.
Sergeant Roberts' use of force was found to be legally justified under the "fellow officer rule," as she was reacting to what she reasonably believed was her partner being shot.
Deputy Hernandez resigned from the sheriff's office during the investigation, effectively ending his career in law enforcement.
Sheriff Eric Aden publicly released the bodycam footage and issued a formal apology to Marquis Jackson and the community, stating that the department failed in its duty to protect a suspect in their custody.
Ultimately, Jackson was cleared of any wrongdoing regarding the shooting, and the event remains a textbook example used in law enforcement training regarding hyper-vigilance and the dangers of misinterpreting sensory input during high-stress situations.

In 1911 a soap company taught America to eat a candle.
Procter and Gamble were not in the food business. They made soap and candles, and both needed fat. That meant lard and tallow, bought from meatpackers who had them over a barrel on price. So P&G went hunting for a fat they could own, and found one nobody else wanted: cottonseed oil, a waste product of the cotton gin, treated as near-worthless industrial slop.
Then a chemist showed them a German trick called hydrogenation. Pump hydrogen through that cheap liquid oil and it stiffens into a pale solid that looks, if you squint, like lard.
It was meant for soap. But P&G looked at this lard impersonator and asked the only question a soap company asks: why sell it for pennies as soap when you could sell it for more in a pie?
They called it Crisco, and they did not advertise it so much as evangelise it. A free cookbook in every home. The clean, modern, scientific fat, set against the dirty old animal fats your grandmother trusted. It worked. A waste product from the cotton gin became the fat in the nation's kitchens.
That is the clever business story. Here is where it turns into something worse.
Skip to 1948. The American Heart Association is a small, broke club of cardiologists nobody has heard of. Then it lands a windfall of around 1.7 million dollars, the better part of 20 million today, and explodes into the most powerful voice on heart disease in the country.
Where did the money come from? The AHA will tell you, primly, that Procter and Gamble never wrote a cheque. True enough. The money was raised through a radio contest called the Walking Man, on a programme Procter and Gamble sponsored and used to plug its products. The company sponsored the show that gathered the money, pushed its goods across it, and stamped its name on the whole affair.
A bribe with an alibi is still a bribe. Routing it through a game show does not change what it bought.
And what it bought was a pulpit. The body that would soon tell every household in America to bin the butter and cook with vegetable oil was launched into national power by the company that made the vegetable oil. The makers of Crisco built the pulpit, and the man in the pulpit preached Crisco.
Preach it he did. The animal fats humans had eaten for all of history were recast as killers. The factory oil was the cure. It went into the schools, onto the guidelines, out of your doctor's mouth.
There is a punchline, and it is not a kind one. The hydrogenated oil they spent decades calling heart-healthy was riddled with trans fats. By the 1990s the evidence was overwhelming, and in 2018 the very fat the establishment had championed was banned from the food supply as a danger to the heart. The FDA reckoned it was killing around 7,000 people a year before they pulled it.
A soap company invents a fat. It buys the body that blesses the fat as healthy. The fat is fed to a nation for a century. Then it is banned for killing people.
Nutritional science grew up in a soap works with a marketing budget, and it has never entirely left home.
Read the label. Then read who paid for the study behind it.

In southeastern Spain there is a lagoon called the Mar Menor, the largest saltwater lagoon in Europe. It was once a jewel, clear water full of seahorses and fish, ringed with resorts.
In recent years it has repeatedly died. Tonnes of dead fish and crustaceans have washed up on its beaches, suffocated, the whole lagoon turning to green soup. Holidaymakers have stood on the shore watching thousands of fish crowd into the shallows, gasping for oxygen that was not there.
The cause is chiefly farming. The land around the Mar Menor is intensive irrigated agriculture, the sort that grows cheap fruit and vegetables for European supermarkets. Fertiliser off those fields, heavy with nitrates, runs off and seeps into the lagoon and feeds enormous blooms of algae. The algae bloom, die, and rot, and the rotting drags the oxygen out of the water, and everything that breathes it dies.
It got so bad that in 2022 Spain took the extraordinary step of granting the Mar Menor legal personhood, the right to be defended in court as though it were a person, after years of marches and over 600,000 signatures, because nothing else had managed to stop the slow killing of it.
A lagoon asphyxiated by the runoff from growing healthy plant food, while the cow on her hill, miles away, gets the lecture.
The fish kills make the news for a day. The next punnet of cheap peppers never mentions where it came from, or what it cost the water next door.
A “premium” brand. A certified B Corp. Yet so many flavours of @GuPuds contain palm oil.
The shocking part? The Milk Chocolate one has NO palm oil. So why not all of them?
Consumers deserve transparency.
Farmers deserve fairness.
