Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Full Idiocracy.

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...
