“From this point forward, all of the Qin empire's documents, and hopefully the world’s, will be changed to use the much more accurate term, "horse" as opposed to "deer". So it’s a horse. In other words, welcome to the new world of horse shit — HS.”

Apart from @doctorow.pluralistic.net's #enshittification theory having been one of the most impactful on my understanding of tech and platforms recently, one of his case studies inspired me years ago to make an early try of OSINT. Chuffed to meet him in person, and looking forward to the reading.

Source citation for "alarming rise" of stabbings, please (being found with a knife or any sharp object is counted as a "knife crime", and varies strongly with policing patterns and classifications, so I don't care about those).

Today in right-wing desperation of disinformation, the Smegtator decided that the Mayor of London is personally responsible for a church voluntarily entering (yet another) music event deal.

Well, if it does, that needs to be applied across the board, regardless of cause or ethnicity. The black bloc was not originally a nationalist tactic, it must be remembered.

It's a shit-take war mushrooming between competing conspiracism camps blaming either Israelis or Palestinians. 😑 (in actual fact, the person charged with the arson is one "Gilles Mallet of Saint-Simon"—an Acadian-Canadian name, of someone who almost certainly is of Catholic background).

🧵 Yes, it does *also mention* that rape is illegal, but it is primarily about how sexual consent is understood in the UK with regard to changing one's mind, inebriation, pressure, clarity of expression, silence, spousal entitlement, etc. 🧵

Hey, maybe Google (and other ad platforms) can ban ads that are deliberately engineered to look like system app update alerts (and often can also be targeted at specific demographics e.g. the elderly)?

Scam click farmer tactics have evolved yet again in recent iterations. In one example, URL shorteners plus: • Images with less identifiable persons • Carousel X ads, cannot swipe, links on click • Cached scanner detection+deflection Intermediate domain now seems down, though.

What's to prevent Farage or Trump or someone else from invoking this proposed law? How do we even triage the daily allocation among all the media outlets? What a phenomenally dumb and illiberal idea! I thought this was a right-wing troll op at first.

#enshittification These "anchor accounts"—at least the ones run by governments of countries threatened by Xitter's information disorder incentivisation—need to migrate to open interoperable networks.
