Space Karen Elmo’s anti-trans and pro-Nazi bullshit means I’m all in on Mastodon. Come over, it’s great. https://t.co/qbRXV6s4Tx

So, you need to travel to another station to buy your ticket, but you can't travel to another station without a ticket?
Surely we should just #SaveTicketOffices ?

It's like in 2019 when DNS researchers who were entrusted with logs to track malware instead used them for political purposes, to both track a candidate's movement and use them to promote conspiracy theories about the candidate.

The infosec community is increasingly becoming the cybersecurity industrial complex.

Team Cymru gets netflow data from ISPs to track malware and hackers. It's now giving that info the FBI so that they can surveille you without a warrant.

I for one am glad that we have a zero tolerance approach to sports presenters expressing disapproval of governments demonising minorities, withdrawing protections from victims of trafficking and breaking international law. These sports presenters will be the ruin of us.

Now that we have concluded the important business of censuring footballers for upsetting the governing party, can we perhaps focus some critical attention on the immoral, unworkable and (by the government’s own boastful admission) probably unlawful Illegal Migration Bill?

So...Elon Musk let Andrew Tate back on Twitter, and Tate promptly used it to reveal his whereabouts to authorities in Romania who then arrested him.

All because Greta Thunberg owned him so hard his little wee-wee fell off.

Do I have that right? Please say I have that right.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

yes, please do enlighten me. email me at [email protected]

Let this sink in: @elonmusk hath decreed that all links to Mastodon should be flagged as malware. This is, of course, a baldfaced lie, and he knows it. So the CEO of Twitter is lying to everyone on Twitter, and to all its advertisers, even to all of his defenders.

OMG 😂

Not only have they taken down iSpoof’s homepage, but this is what @metpoliceuk uploaded to the service’s Telegram channel — basically mocking iSpoof’s existing advertising video. This is beautiful.

I'm old enough to remember Suella Braverman's principled resignation for having breached the ministerial code less than a week ago.
