With Ring, American Consumers Built a Surveillance Dragnet Ring's 'Search Party' is dystopian surveillance accelerationism.

With Ring, American consumers built the surveillance dragnet. Ring's Super Bowl ad, which highlighted a feature to find lost dogs, showed Ring is still, again, and always will be in the business of leveraging its network of luxury surveillance consumers www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

Revealed: How Substack makes money from hosting Nazi newsletters Exclusive: Site takes a cut of subscriptions to content that promotes far-right ideology, white supremacy and antisemitism

I’m late in sharing it, but here is another piece about Substack making money off Nazis.

Those writers — especially those who say they are fighting tyranny and injustice — on the platform know better by now.

No excuses.

Schumer: hey you guys are out of balls

Republicans: we’re gonna kill your families

Schumer: ok we’ll pass funding for new balls but you’ve GOT to read the rules

*Do* we have to revise our expectations down, though, or could we just not make racism and nationalism such a priority that we torpedo the economy

If reading these letters doesn’t fill you with a deep and urgent need to burn these concentration camps to the ground after releasing their prisoners, you would’ve been on the wrong side in WWII.

If you do a search on here for “Ring ad” you’ll see how many people understood what was actually being advertised. A surveillance network that works side-by-side with ICE to kidnap our neighbors. If you’re in the industry and DON’T see this? …please change industries.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.
