📈 Confirmed: Live metrics show a partial restoration to internet connectivity in #Iran on day 88, after 2093 hours of near-total isolation from international networks, the longest nationwide internet shutdown in modern history. It is unclear if the restoration will be sustained.

Let me know if you know anybody who needs a Signal proxy to connect through.

I'm a big fan of Signal as a replacement for various messaging apps, but it's getting blocker in more and more countries. I just set up a Signal proxy to allow people to bypass blocks - send me a message here and I'll pass on the address. #Signalproxy

Trods ’The Stringer’s sympatiske mission om at undersøge, hvorvidt gamle magthierarkier fratog den rigtige fotograf æren for fotografiet af ’napalmpigen’, giver dokumentaren alligevel fotochef Sigrid Nygaard en lidt dårlig smag i munden.

There's a reason why sports teams don't chant "I believe that we will lose" before a game, a reason so obvious that I'm pretty sure it needs no explanation. Which is why it makes my head explode when people surrender in advance verbally, which they do all the time about politics.

Podcast om pressefotograf Jan Grarups mange løgne er både gruopvækkende og medrivende. Men man savner en redaktør, skriver Rasmus Elmelund i denne anmeldelse.

Gaza er blevet navnet på en moralsk katastrofe for Vesten. Med inspiration fra den svenske avis Aftonbladet har Information i denne uge bragt en række fotografier af de rædselsvækkende realiteter i Gaza og konfronteret en række danske politikere med dem. Flere politikere takkede nej til at deltage.

In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

Exercises in attention — Emil Ryge

It’s not like the world seemed simple and peaceful before 2025, but it sure feels like it’s taken a turn for the crazier. It feels as though our constant access to news and information—and an apparent strategy from those in power to "flood the zone" and barrage us with ever more absurd sta

As a first step, I’ve given my website an overhaul and plan to spend more time updating it. And in the same vein, I’ve started a visual diary where I post images from my everyday life, both at home and out and about.

Emil Ryge @emilryge.com · 06/04/2025

But just as importantly, I can clearly feel how all these online platforms fragment my attention. From being spaces meant to foster community and focus on photography, they’ve been reduced to entertainment channels with the sole purpose of keeping us hooked for as long as possible.

Like countless others, I’m currently considering leaving Facebook and Instagram. First of all, it seems unsustainable to spend time on platforms that not only profit every time I use them, but have also become weapons in a political battle with the American president at the center.

I usually bring my 4x5 large format camera to add images to by ongoing series about the climate movement, but as this was not technically a climate protest, I brought my digital camera this time. It’s been years since I’ve seen this level of violence used against non violent protesters.

Yesterday I attended an international protest against the shipping company Mærsk, which is based here in Copenhagen. Protesters from across Europe barricaded the headquarter, protesting Mærsk’s involvement in shipping goods for the Israeli army.

“We don’t need any more irony-poisoned hot takes or cathartic, irreverent snark. We need to collectively decide what kind of world we actually do want, and what we’re willing to do to achieve it.”

“But perhaps the greatest of these sins is convincing ourselves that posting is a form of political activism, when it is at best a coping mechanism—an individualist solution to problems that can only be solved by collective action.”
