Jeff Thomas @buildbackwetter.bsky.social · 02/03/2026King. A Shah is a king. The US uses the Persian term simply to avoid saying, "we're reinstalling a king." So absurd this kind of low-brow propaganda works, but it does. Never say Shah. Step back. Saudi Arabia and UAE are monarchies, too. Trump wants to be a king. Their shared goal is feudalism. 000

Jeff Thomas @buildbackwetter.bsky.social · 22/01/2026There is no safe way to store data on the cloud. Do we not understand that Trump controls NSA, FBI, CIA, DHS?

Jeff Thomas @buildbackwetter.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Excellent effort to limit corporate surveillance, but critically flawed. Once Flock & their partner Palantir is in control of or analyzing data, the idea of being able to control what happens to it is just not practical.
