Anthropic Drops Flagship Safety Pledge
In an abrupt shift, the companyΒ may release future AI models without ironclad safety guarantees
Ps. And just today its reported that Anthropic stepped away from its safety pledge. Itβs honestly a pattern for them:
1. Anthropic notes a problematic thing
2. Anthropic talks about a problematic thing
3. Anthropic engages in problematic thing regardless
Gutless immorality is the business plan

But it is indeed broken!
Good news though: it can be corrected in November.
Vote en masse; take back our government with a solid veto-proof majority in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.
End Trump's destruction of our democracy and filling his pockets with our tax dollars.

Appleβs new iOS setting addresses a hidden layer of location tracking
Apple has introduced Limit Precise Location, a new setting that reduces how precisely cellular networks can locate your device, though support is currently limited.
There's also active espionage against any protesting. If you can, buy a dumb phone. Throw it in a portable faraday cage. If you have a new phone, turn off the triangulation for Apple cell devices and use face masks to keep AI facial recognition at bay www.malwarebytes.com/blog/mobile/...

Susan Collins hands Trump the 50th vote against free and fair elections
When it comes to free and fair elections, Collins is as conservative and anti-voting rights as they come.
Collins always has an excuse to vote against free and fair elections. It is the one issue on which she reliably proves she is in lockstep with the rest of her party. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/susa...

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.
Haven Watch lives by the promise, βNo One Walks Alone.β Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Verge headline: ICE is pushing Minneapolis underground
by Gaby Del Valle
Photos by Jack Califano
Photo depicts a white brick wall plastered with two recurring posters: One that says Alex Pretty ICU Nurse - Murdered by ICE, shows his photo with red highlights. Another is similar but reads Renee Nicole Good American Mom - Murdered by ICE
ICE may have lost the battle for public opinion, and its operation may be hampered by local pushback, but it has succeeded in one respect: It has instilled terror in Minnesotaβs immigrant communities, forcing them into the shadows.

Sens Jon Husted (R-OH) & Bernie Moreno (R-OH) both got big payments from Les Wexner and then on cue started to disparage investigations into the Epstein files. This is how the corrupt system works.

As American Views of ICE Dim, Warehouses Become a Symbol of Resistance
The federal government has a plan to convert a warehouse located in Chester, NY into an ICE detention facility.
But despite the frigid temperatures, New Yorkers have turned out in droves to make their voices heard: We don't want mass detention camps in our communities. ICE has no place in New York.

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP.
