The irony is chilling: a man who exposed a concentration camp is now imprisoned in one himself. If Guan Heng is sent back to China, there's no doubt he will be imprisoned for a very long time or worse. Hopefully, he has a good asylum lawyer.🤞
In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.

He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

ICE Holding Chinese Man Who Documented Uyghur Camps
Heng Guan is awaiting an immigration hearing on Monday that could lead to his removal from the U.S. and ultimately land him back in China, according to his lawyer and a New York-based activist group.

Americans are more likely than Germans to view China and Iran as a military threat to their country’s security. While 61% of Americans consider China a major military threat, few Germans (9%) hold the same view.

Last month, alongside @mozilla.org @algorithmwatch.org and others, we asked major platforms to share their 1,000 most-viewed posts. Not a single one agreed.

If we can’t see what goes viral, we can’t understand how misinformation spreads.

Sign the petition for basic transparency. 👇

Future historians might want to reconstruct when NATO ceased to exist IN ITS TRANSATLANTIC FORM.
Here’s a hint. Look at this passage of the Ukraine „peace plan“. The US will act as a „mediator“ between NATO and Russia.
As if they were no longer the lead nation.

New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.

Replace “Dems” for “mainstream parties” and “GOP” for “far right” and you have West European politics.
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

NEW: President Trump's pardon of his alleged 2020 co-conspirators was less about shielding them from past crimes, his adversaries say, than about signaling to others that he has their back if he needs them again in 2026 or 2028.

Wenn man es offenbar bisher nicht schafft, gegen betrügerische Werbung vorzugehen - was ein Armutszeugnis ist! -, dann muss man doch wenigstens dafür sorgen, dass sich das nicht auch noch rentiert. Ultima Ratio: Gewinnabschöpfung. So schnell werden wir nicht gucken können, wie #Meta dann handelt.
Es ist so ein großes Problem: Meta geht nicht streng genug gegen betrügerische Werbung vor & verdiente allein im letzten Jahr 16 Milliarden Dollar (!) mittels unseriöser Werbung zu Scams oder illegalen Produkten

Und ich frag mich schon: Wie lange wird dieses Verhalten von Meta politisch zugelassen?
Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show
Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, and it internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day, company documents show.

“Nobody has heard of” Lesotho, President Trump joked, to the laughter of lawmakers. He’d just cut aid to the country.

Weeks later, he announced a 50% tariff on exports from “the denim capital of Africa.”

Today, Lesotho is under a state of disaster.
