Abstract. Chinaβs Great Firewall originally focused on restricting domestic access to resources on the global web. Today, however, efforts in China and bey
Western discussions of the cybersecurity concept refer to hacking, disruptions of critical cyber infrastructure, and cyber espionage.
Chinese authorities frame cybersecurity as βthe prevention of any risk to the integrity of the Party-led regimeβ.

Jonathan Haidt Promoted a Fringe Theory on Trans Youth β Assigned
The author of βThe Anxiety Generationβ told Margaret Hoover for PBS that young people become trans due to peer contagion effects. There is no evidence for this claim.
It's incredible how effective transphobia is as a litmus test for SO many issues. Every time I find a new pro-surveillance tech stooge, they're transphobic. I think people need to understand how tightly the belief that the internet is turning everyone trans is bound up w mass surveillance efforts
