It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it
We’re at peak greed when the president brags about 24k gold décor for the White House while cutting commissaries, healthcare, and social nets. A palace of glitter for him, an empty pantry and hospital bill for you.

Identity theft doesn't need to hack your phone, it just needs your SSN from that data breach 3 years ago.

FREEZE YOUR CREDIT. It's free, takes 20 minutes, & prevents most financial fraud. All the encrypted apps in the world won't help if someone opens credit cards in your name.

Google quietly scrubbed its 2030 net-zero pledge from its website after AI data centers made those goals "impossible" 🤐

AI profits & data collection > climate promises
Signal just rolled out secure backups, a heavily requested feature!

Your message history can finally survive phone disasters. End-to-end encrypted backups that refresh daily, with a 64-character recovery key that never leaves your device.

If you don't have a custom domain, you don't really own your email inbox.

New service shuts down? Your address is gone forever. Provider changes terms? You're stuck. Want to switch? Good luck updating every account.

The weeds are fun to be in, but don't forget to look up once in a while 🌿

That's exactly why we made this new video ⬇️

A beginner-friendly guide to encrypted services that helps people new to privacy get started. The more people using these tools, the stronger our collective pushback against the privacy = criminal narrative.

Politicians are working overtime to make "privacy" synonymous with "criminal activity"

Every time you choose to use a service that respects your data, you're proving them wrong. Normal people want privacy. You ARE the counter-narrative!
Is this supposed to be a threat? They did this exact thing while the government was open
Garcia on Tom Homan: Yet he is somehow possibly taking a $50,000 bribe to steer contracts—while at the same time trying to deport everybody else. I think a few folks have said it, but it bears repeating: he should be self-deporting himself.
