the republicans were handed the country on a silver platter for the first time in a long time culturally & politically and basically did nothing with it except bomb iran. historical fumble.
This is pretty clever. The manufacturer of this USB charger sold at an airport in China is bugged. It uploads your phones data to a remote server when you plug your phone in. They sold it at airports so people from other countries would pick it up.
Talk about phishing.
Holy sh*t. Claude Code just found a hidden chip inside my Chinese power bank from Guangzhou. Every time I charged my iPhone, it quietly copied the whole phone…
It also read our saved Wi-Fi password off my iPhone, got onto our home network and sent everything to a server.
I bought it for $19 at an airport kiosk there 3 weeks ago. No brand, 30,000 mAh on the label, and it felt heavy.
The first time I plugged in, the screen asked "Trust This Computer?". I tapped Trust without thinking and went on with my day. That one tap gave it access to everything.
This morning I finally set up Claude Code to warn me when any device starts reading my files. An hour later, 10 seconds into charging, the screen filled with yellow warnings, then red ones: data was moving when it should only be charging.
I asked Claude Code what was going on. My phone saw the power bank as a small computer with 64 GB of storage and its own internet connection.
A USB cable has wires for power and wires for data, and a normal charger only uses the power ones. This one used both, and it had already copied all of this:
→ /device → IMEI and serial number
→ /contacts → 1,206 numbers
→ /apps → every app I have, including my 2 bank apps
→ /photos → 3,912 pictures, my passport among them
→ /wifi → our network name and its key
→ /wife's iPhone → her photos too, she charged from it twice and tapped Trust too
Each time we plugged in, it used that key to get online and send out the new files:
sends to ��� 47.***.***.12
uploads → 19 in 3 weeks
last one → last night at 2:14, while we slept
I pulled the cable right away. Then Claude Code blocked that address on our router and walked me through changing the Wi-Fi password and the logins for my bank apps.
I had it opened at a repair shop, and what was inside is in the first comment. A 30-second check for your own is in the second one. Save this and test every power bank in your house today.
Again, this was a nation built by White Europeans for White Europeans. At the first Congress in 1790 the founders passed the Naturalization Act, and it was quite clear about this. Being White was a prerequisite to becoming a citizen. If you were not White, you could NOT be an American. This country was welcome to Europeans only because it was an expansion of the European (Western) Civilization. This is our civilization.
America is our birthright. A nation of immigrants? Yea, EUROPEAN immigrants.
@techhsiren I dont think its him holding pee. They cant really do that so soon very well. Ours stopped taking naps most days. Probably ly just has more energy that needs to be expended. That was our case.
We are not a country of immigrants. We are a nation of pioneers. A people who built the best country on Earth from scratch. That is NOT the same as coming to a country that is already developed by another people.
And if anything we are a country White European Christians. Claiming this is a "nation of immigrants" is propaganda to used to support replacement from countries the founding fathers had no intention of being apart of our great country.
The founders (nor most Americans) believe this is a country for literally anyone from any culture or country can come to.
