Former Syrian #Prison Official Charged with #Torture
Source: justice.gov/usao-cdca/pr/forme…
In that role, #Alsheikh allegedly ordered subordinates to inflict and was sometimes personally involved in inflicting severe physical and mental #pain and suffering on political and other prisoners.
Isn't that exciting? The American #justice #system knows exactly what torture is and can even convict foreigners for it. Unfortunately, it is blind with its own #military or with the #CIA, or can someone explain to me why nobody was punished for #Guantanamo? #Bush admitted to ordering torture after #911 and is still walking around free. This is not only a disgrace to the #legal system but also totally undemocratic, because in a #democracy all people must be equal before the #law.

The vulnerabilities, discovered in the vehicle’s MIB3 infotainment unit, could allow attackers to achieve unrestricted code execution and run malicious code every time the unit starts. This could let an attacker obtain live vehicle #GPS coordinates and speed data, record conversations via the in-car #microphone, take screenshots of the infotainment display, and play arbitrary sounds in the car, according to PCAutomotive.

Biden has proven that what #Trump can do, he can do too. Lies, nepotism and saving criminals from their just punishment. Look, he's just the lesser of two evils and Trump is much worse. US democracy can only be saved without these two evil parties. Trump's supporters can now pull off much worse things with reference to Biden without the other side being able to justifiably outrage. Righteous anger at this despicable system can only come from the outside.

As a result, the court ordered blocking of “fr.xhamster.com,” including the “fr.” prefix. This means internet service providers have complied with the order and blocked xHamster at the DNS level but only with the “fr.” prefix. So #xHamster remains accessible in France — until regulator, Arcom, finds a way to close this embarrassing loophole.

Forced #sterilization in the #CzechRepublic
Source: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Forced sterilisation, a serious violation of human rights, occurred across the former communist bloc, both during and after the socialist period. This #study examines the case of the #Czech Republic, where legislation regarding compensation to the victims of forced sterilisation was only passed in 2021, despite a 2005 finding by the Ombudsman that at least 50 women had been subject to the procedure. My research shows that long-standing discrimination against Roma people and public lack of interest in the issue were largely to blame for this delay.

This #Child Made $30K #Rugging a #Solana #Meme Coin— Then #Crypto Degens Got #Revenge

But as the token hit a $1 million market cap, the #kid promptly sold and dumped his bag, resulting in the token’s price falling 54% in a matter of seconds. This has been defined as a rug pull by on-chain data visualization company, Bubblemaps.
...
After the rug, the kid created another token called I’m Sorry (SORRY), which hit a $4.5 #million market cap after he sold at the $400,000 level for just over $13,000. Then another token based on his dog (LUCY) hit a $3.8 million #market cap, after he split his supply, selling around $20,300 worth when the token was around a $700,000 market cap.

#Orbot lies brazenly to the user
Source: guardianproject.info/apps/org.…
Orbot is a very useful app for using the #TOR #network on #Android. With all due respect to floss and the achievements of the altruistic developers, I still think it's downright cheeky to lie so blatantly to the user.
The bridge functionality, which can be optionally activated, allows users from the censored Internet, where all TOR servers are blocked, to connect anyway.
Orbot is writing:
It will not drain your battery
This is wrong. There will be more background activity for this connections and this will cost battery power. This is a damn lie!
It will not slow down your internet
This is wrong. There will be connections from others and they will slow down your internet. With a big bandwidth you won't note it but not everyone have high speed internet. This is a damm lie!
