Your Data For Sale – Who’s Buying?

There are 160 apps on my phone. What they’re actually doing, I don’t know. But I decided to find out. I have a feeling these apps are spying on me. Well, not listening in, but that they’re keeping track of where I am at all times. That my every move is shared on. When I am shopping for groceries, having a drink, or hanging out with friends. I know there are those that buy and sell such information. How are they tracking us, and what do they want with our data? To try to get to the bottom of this, I started an experiment in February.

Matt Taibbi: The Youtube Ban Is Un-American, Wrong And Will Backfire

"There’s no such thing as a technocratic approach to truth. There are official truths, but those are political rather than scientific determinations, and therefore almost always wrong on some level. The people who created the American free press understood this, even knowing the tendency of newspapers to be idiotic and full of lies. They weighed that against the larger potential evil of a despotic government that relies upon what Thomas Jefferson called a “standing army of newswriters” ready to print whatever ministers want, “without any regard for truth.” We allow freedom of religion not...

Vijay Boyapati: The Bullish Case For Bitcoin

I recently transferred my crypto to a Ledger wallet, it felt great to have complete control of my assets. No bank, no government and no third party intermediary.

The Worlds Largest Arms-Producing Companies

No surprise. I don't expect this to change under Biden (or any president). While he didn't make the worse pick for Secretary Of Defense, he did pick an ex-military four star general that took the all to common career path. Military - head of Centcom - retire - work for hedge fund that invests in defense contractors and government contracts - Board of Directors at Ratheon - back in government as SOD. Last year, sales by the world's 25 biggest arms companies were 8.5 percent higher than in 2018, totaling $361 billion, according to new data released by SIPRI. The 12 American companies in the...

Grading Candidates For Biden’s Foreign Policy Team

Robert Wright and Connor Echels at nonzero.org "Background: Flournoy, a candidate for secretary of defense, was an undersecretary of defense in the Obama administration, where she played a big role in designing the Afghanistan “surge.” She is perhaps best known for co-founding and then running the Center for a New American Security, a think tank that is considered liberal-hawkish and gets an unusual amount of funding from defense contractors. Her involvement with the military-industrial complex also includes co-founding (with Secretary-of-State-designate Tony Blinken) the consulting firm...
