'You'll never need to work again': Criminals offer reporter money to hack BBC Reporter Joe Tidy was offered money if he would help cyber criminals access BBC systems.

No vulnerabilities used. No lateral network movement.

It's all just OAuth tokens all the way down.

Read the whole story here:

This BBC reporter was offered 25% of a ransom payout if he gave hackers access to the corporate network.

He played along so we got a look inside their tactic here:

I'm frankly amazed that no-one has yet shot a masked ICE agent!

I'd love to hear Kavanaugh's opinions after his own home gets raided by CBP/ICE.

Good one. "Kavanaugh Stops" for when DHS officers grab US citizens on the street and detain them for anywhere from 20 minutes to a couple days, and "Kavanaugh Raids" for when DHS officers raid a worksite or apartment building and detain US citizens for hours/days while they check everyone there.

Hard to say. Not sure Illinois has the ability to do anything. There may be a civil rights lawsuit seeking to stop warrantless arrests, as there has been in Chicago, but since the Supreme Court let the LA injunction lift DHS is massively emboldened. And the shutdown is another lawsuit complication.

That last excerpt is from the Chicago Sun Times story about the raid. It makes my blood boil. bsky.app/profile/walt...

Rodrick Johnson, 67, is one of many residents who were detained by federal agents during the South Shore raid. A U.S. citizen, he said agents broke through his door and dragged him out in zip ties. Johnson said he was left tied up outside the building for nearly three hours before agents finally let him go. “I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up,” Jones said. “I asked if they had a warrant, and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.”

What DHS pulled in Chicago on Tuesday is wildly unconstitutional. They smashed down almost every door in the building, dragged entire families into the street, and detained people for hours ("Kavanaugh stops").

Ms. Fisher was held for five hours and another senior citizen was held for three hours.

When a state or local law enforcement official violates your rights, you can sue for money damages. When a federal official violates your rights — you largely cannot, thanks to a quirk of the law and the Supreme Court's decision not to find an inherent cause of action to sue under the Constitution.

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion.

Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

Is the @royalsociety.org still a legitimate learned society? 😬

They seemingly can’t even enforce their own rules 🤷🏾‍♂️

Terrible news about the attack on the Manchester synagogue. Thinking of those who lost loved ones or whose loved ones are injured.
Especially to attack on Yom Kippur, such an important day in the Jewish calendar.

It would be a shame for you to share it

It will be available in the theatrical run in USA- but details are forthcoming

Blow-up dolls?

I wish I had hope for gun control and that I could believe “political violence has no place in this country”.

But we live in a country that accepts white children being massacred by gun violence.

Not just accepts, but worships violence.

Idk what dial YouTube turned but they definitely did something. Viewership is inexplicably down around 30% for myself and many channels I watch/follow. I've never blamed the algorithm for anything in my 10 years on YT, but this is too obvious to ignore. Spoken to others who have noticed it, too.

Trump's efforts to cut National Parks budget faces bipartisan pushback President Trump wants to cut hundreds of millions of dollars from the National Park Service budget this year and much more next year. The effort is facing bipartisan criticism.

Gutting California’s national parks — places like Yosemite, Joshua Tree, and the Redwoods all at risk.

That’s what Trump’s doing by pulling federal funding. He's putting our national parks on the chopping block.

Power Mapping to Design a Winning Campaign Strategy The Commons is an online library for the change makers of the world and for those interested in social change, activism, organising, advocacy and justice.

Let's think about the various pillars of power that are propping up the authoritarian regime.

Our goal in nonviolent resistance is to undermine them.

We can isolate the authoritarian leaders. We can divide them from each other and from their supporters.

Four lessons COVID taught us about the immune system In the midst of pandemic upheaval, researchers have gained fundamental insights about how the body fends off infections.

Some learnings about our immune system from Covid @nature.com
—importance of T cells (not just neutralizing antibodies)
—key role of interferons, the first line of defense
—hybrid immunity
—underpinnings of Long Covid

Cool. We are now the country that builds concentration camps.

The covid deniers have won, but they also have to live in the world they created.

Can't make a woman do what you want? Force her. This seems to be what the small dicks of the GOP do to women who resist them. For example, the leader of the GOP is an adjudicated rapist. This is not the party for people who care about women & girls or their rights.

Nicole Collier is courage & democracy in action. Tonight on the Texas House Floor, she stands firm with Gene Wu, facing down authoritarian and unconstitutional acts from extremists hellbent on rigging maps & silencing Texans. They will not bend, will not break, & will not be bullied.

She is not gonna take it anymore and neither should we. They don't get to decide what we do with our bodies, our hearts or our minds. #WeveHadEnough #FreeNicole #Texas #FreeDC
