A screenshot of text reads: "Reuters reports that internal documents from Meta (Facebook, Instagram) show that the company projected that 10% of its 2024 revenue (about US $16 billion) came from advertising tied to known scams and banned goods. The company estimated that it posted around 15 billion high-risk scam ads per day. Documents reveal Meta charged higher rates (“penalty bids”) to advertisers flagged as likely scam operators."

govts fanning misinformation >:(
A screenshot of text reads, "...window into not just a little-known sector of the American military, but also a completely unregulated practice. No one knows the program's total size, and the explosion of signature reduction has never been examined for its impact on military policies and culture. Congress has never held a hearing on the subject. And yet the military developing this gigantic clandestine force challenges U.S. laws, the Geneva Conventions, the code of military conduct and basic accountability." A screenshot of text reads, "The newest and fastest growing group is the clandestine army that never leaves their keyboards. These are the cutting-edge cyber fighters and intelligence collectors who assume false personas online, employing "nonattribution" and "misattribution" techniques to hide the who and the where of their online presence while they search for high-value targets and collect what is called "publicly accessible information"—or even engage in campaigns to influence and manipulate social media. Hundreds work in and for the NSA, but over the past five years, every military intelligence and special operations unit has developed some kind of "web" operations cell that both collects intelligence and tends to the operational security of its very activities." A screenshot of text reads, "In the electronic era, a major task of signature reduction is keeping all of the organizations and people, even the automobiles and aircraft involved in the clandestine operations, masked. This protective effort entails everything from scrubbing the Internet of telltale signs of true identities to planting false information to protect missions and people. As standard unforgettable identification and biometrics have become worldwide norms, the signature reduction industry also works to figure out ways of spoofing and defeating everything from fingerprinting and facial recognition at border crossings, to ensuring that undercover operatives can enter and operate in the United States, manipulating official records to ensure that false identities match up."

budum!
A lightning bug is wedged in the vertical crevice of two white-washed panels. An orange plastic plant container is partially visible in the bottom right corner of the frame.

i love this idea, but substack isn't a good platform to support
A screenshot of a tweet from @EoinHiggins_ says, "As a privately owned company Substack can do whatever it wants-choosing not to, at minimum, demonetize literal Nazi content is a choice," above a photo. The photo shows a post from Hamish McKenzie, reading "Hi everyone. Chris, Jairaj, and I wanted to let you know that we've heard and have been listening to all the views being expressed about how Substack should think about the presence of fringe voices on the platform (and particularly, in this case, Nazi views). I just want to make it clear that we don't like Nazis either-we wish no-one held those views. But some people do hold those and other extreme views. Given that, we don't think that censorship (including through demonetizing publications) makes the problem go away-in fact, it makes it worse."

it's so curious when a well-known scientist refers to circulating covid levels as low, when the wastewater says the opposite
A screenshot from WastewaterSCAN's National Overview shows SARS-CoV-2 in the "High" category

been having chest pain since my last fucking infection -> looked up this article -> ok. thanks
screenshot of The Heart Foundation's website, a page titled "5 warning signs of a heart attack that you may not know" The page reads, "5. No warning signs at all Finally, it is entirely possible to experience a 'silent heart attack', where you might not have any symptoms at all. In this case, your heart attack might not be picked up until later down the track. It is possible to experience several of these symptoms or just one. They usually last for at least 10 minutes and may come on suddenly or get worse as time passes. And did you know women are more likely than men to suffer from the non-chest pain symptoms listed above, along with feeling fatigued or tired? Read more about specific warning signs and risk factors for women. Here are some heart-healthy tips to reduce the likelihood of a heart attack: • Be smoke free • Do regular exercise • Follow a heart-healthy eating pattern • Maintain a healthy body weight • Reduce your alcohol intake • Look after your mental health."

like grow a fucking spine and do better. it's been 5 years
A screenshot of a comment on an instagram post by queercollage.party. User baltobestie41 writes, "@queercollage.party this is deeply disappointing. time and again, event organizers say "masks are strongly encouraged!" - and then when people at the event don't wear masks and organizers don't do anything about it, people at risk for long covid, with it already, or with conditions that make them otherwise vulnerable to infection are forced into highly dangerous situations. what does "highly encouraged" mean here? asking nicely, and then enforcing no repercussions? showing the limits of your care for disability justice and intersectionality, and your willingness to sacrifice disabled people if it means avoiding a brief moment of discomfort? you can do better. you can require attendees protect each other, and create an event that's safe for everyone. please do."

A public health message is only as valuable as its accuracy. www.who.int/news-room/qu...
A screenshot from the WHO reads: Can I still get COVID-19 after I have been vaccinated? Yes. While COVID-19 vaccines are highly effective against serious disease and death, no vaccine is 100% effective. Vaccinated people can get infected and may fall ill with COVID-19. This is known as a 'breakthrough infection' or 'breakthrough case'. Breakthrough infections can happen with any vaccine and do not mean that the vaccine does not work. People who get COVID-19 after being vaccinated are much more likely to only experience mild symptoms as effectiveness against serious illness and death remains high. Vaccine effectiveness wanes over time, so it's important to stay updated with your shots as recommended by your health care provider.
