Remember the other day when I said these companies don't know what agreements they operate under or what happens to their data?

PornHub was the big example. (And no, I didn't know about this yet)
🔓 PornHub is being extorted by hackers after Premium members’ historical search, watch, and download activity was stolen.

📊 The attackers claim to steal 200 million records, including searches and activity tied to Premium user's email addresses.

Why would I invade Shannon airport when I could get much more bang for my buck by funding every right wing gobdaw I can find, building bot swarms to surround columnists with reinforced echo chambers as they insist on remaining on X, and pump out dog whistles and racist pooson to chase viral heat

A genuine embarrassment and national shame that this man is still platformed by our media and in the pro-Palestine movement

They doused petrol on a building housing of refugee families and set it alight. They were trying to burn these people out, if not actually burn them alive. It was a pogrom. It's important we identify it properly

And the government is encouraging the politics behind this. It'll happen again

Every far-right riot and protest that was tolerated, every racist dog whistle from public reps, every bit of hate and misinformation allowed to spread by social media companies, all led to this moment in Drogheda last night where someone felt emboldened enough to try to burn children alive.

This is where validating “legitimate concerns” and “just asking questions” gets us. It’s where remarks by senior politicians gets us. It’s where unchecked fascist rhetoric gets us.

Even this morning, Miriam O'Callaghan was *still* pushing the line that Paul Murphy is Catherine Connolly’s campaign manager.

Not a good look at all to keep erasing Béibhinn O'Connor’s hard work & massive effort. And honestly reflects badly on RTÉ’s standards of research & reporting. #Áras25

As Barney's body lay out in the street in a pool of blood, the Derry Civil Rights Association banner held by marchers that day was used to cover him.

Damien O'Kane's father (@mckanedj on Twitter) kept it and donated to the Museum of Free Derry, where it is now on permanent display.

Institutionalising people in their family homes and presupposing that parents or siblings will provide support and care liberates nobody. Too many people are stuck, those supporting and providing support with no help or planning for the future.

I very much support the scrapping of the means test for carers allowance. If it happens it must not be allowed to continue to defray the states responsibility to support people to live independently (with supports as required). It can’t be the answer to the no vote to #CareRef.
