"Für einen Bestand von rund 210.000 Wohnungen der betroffenen Konzerne kommen wir auf einen Entschädigungswert von etwa 13,5 Milliarden Euro. Unter den von uns gewählten Annahmen reichen die laufenden Erträge aus, um die Finanzierung zu tragen." @surplusmagazin.de #dwenteignen

Ist Vergesellschaftung zu teuer und nicht umsetzbar? Diese Studie zeigt, dass Vergesellschaftung finanzierbar ist und Mietende entlastet.

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.
A screenshot of an email viewed in dark mode with the subject line "Google DMCA Violation." The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottomA nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."A mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. A URL for an Amnesty International UK resources page is entered in the search bar, but the page displays the message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."

A new secure messenger needs to have a solid foundation. For Air, this foundation is OpenMLS. It has been years in the making, and now it has been audited. This is an important milestone for Air.
