Trumps aanval op de universiteiten (het vervolg). www.cato.org/blog/higher-...
Higher Ed Compact Is More of the Same, Worse
Universities should steer clear of the Trump compact because it is highly prescriptive, and they should want to maintain their independence. It would be a ramping up of federal control.

Today people went around my neighborhood in north east London spray painting St George’s crosses onto people’s homes. Many of these houses have non British people living in them.

This is getting very dark, very quick.

Dus als ik het goed begrepen heb, bestaat er nog radicaler rechts in de VS en die vinden radicaal rechts niet radicaal genoeg. Het loopt uit de hand, dat is zekerheid. (Groypers zijn aanhangers van Nick Fuentes)

"We emailed Infidels MC for comment. In response, Mr Mulford instructed fellow leaders of the biker gang not to reply but included the BBC when he clicked 'reply all'—inadvertently disclosing email addresses and names of fellow Infidels MC members...working in Gaza." www.bbc.com/news/article...

She nails it, that's why I use Signal... ( and everyone should )
meredithmeredith.bsky.social Meredith Whittaker @meredithmeredith.bsky.social · Sep 9
📣 NEW -- In The Economist, discussing the privacy perils of AI agents and what AI companies and operating systems need to do--NOW--to protect Signal and much else!

www.economist.com/by-invitatio...
An illustration of me, and the headline: "AI agents are coming for your privacy, warns Meredith Whittaker The Signal Foundation’s president worries they will also blunt competition and undermine cyber-security" To put it bluntly, the path currently being taken towards agentic AI leads to an elimination of privacy and security at the application layer. It will not be possible for apps like Signal—the messaging app whose foundation I run—to continue to provide strong privacy guarantees, built on robust and openly validated encryption, if device-makers and OS developers insist on puncturing the metaphoric blood-brain barrier between apps and the OS. Feeding your sensitive Signal messages into an undifferentiated data slurry connected to cloud servers in service of their AI-agent aspirations is a dangerous abdication of responsibility. Happily, it’s not too late. There is much that can still be done, particularly when it comes to protecting the sanctity of private data. What’s needed is a fundamental shift in how we approach the development and deployment of AI agents. First, privacy must be the default, and control must remain in the hands of application developers exercising agency on behalf of their users. Developers need the ability to designate applications as “sensitive” and mark them as off-limits to agents, at the OS level and otherwise. This cannot be a convoluted workaround buried in settings; it must be a straightforward, well-documented mechanism (similar to Global Privacy Control) that blocks an agent from accessing our data or taking actions within an app. Second, radical transparency must be the norm. Vague assurances and marketing-speak are no longer acceptable. OS vendors have an obligation to be clear and precise about their architecture and what data their AI agents are accessing, how it is being used and the measures in place to protect it.

1/ Russia's new 'Max' messenger app, which the government is trying to force people to use instead of Telegram and WhatsApp, reportedly systematically spies on its users. It accesses and records all processes on the phone, checks what apps are installed, and leaks unsent text. ⬇️

UK's End of Coal:

"Each these 375ft tall, 290ft diameter cooling towers used to process a staggering 7.5 million gallons of water per hour.

Safely bringing them down meant using around half a tonne of explosives across ~16,500 holes, connected with 19km of detonating cord."
