We’re being conditioned to surrender to automated authority. It’s time to break the cycle and demand structural accountability.

I’m an elderly lefty, living in South West England who’s looking for a nice place in the fediverse where I can share/ learn/ politely disagree etc with others & (occasionally) vent my frustrations & concerns about the parlous state of the world that my grandkids are growing up in! When I’m not “doom scrolling” I enjoy gardening, bird watching, bread baking & being the best granddad I can be.

“No One Is Watching”: How Trump Reversed Biden’s Crackdown on Gun Trafficking
---
After Biden clamped down on the flow of illegal guns, Trump has referred fewer ATF trafficking charges for prosecution, eased up on irresponsible gun shops and shifted hundreds of ATF agents to immigration work.

Describe myself? Why? Who I believe I am is irrelevant to who you’re going to believe me to be. I can tell you that, as a straight man, I support women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and trans rights. I can tell you that, as a multi-racial, multi-ethnic individual, I believe Asian lives matter, Black lives matter, and that your life matters too. I can tell you that I oppose genocide and believe in a free and independent Israel, Palestine, and Gaza, and that everyone has the right to exist. I can also tell you that I believe in one Taiwan and one China, both as their own independent and free nations. But you know what I can’t do? Grow a silver tongue and convince you better than the trolls who presume they know everything. So believe whatever you wish. I am me regardless of anyone else.

Congress House Speaker Mike Johnson says we should have sympathy because Congress isn’t paid enough — so we should “allow” insider trading just so they can take care of their families.
Fuck you, Mike Johnson, and every so-called “public servant” who thinks public service is a get-rich-quick scheme.

English – The Conversation | From AirTags to AI nudification: the growing toolkit of technology-facilitated abuse by Jason R.C. Nurse, Reader in Cyber Security, University of Kent
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article outlines how a growing array of everyday technologies—from Bluetooth trackers and smart glasses to generative‑AI tools such as ChatGPT and xAI’s Grok—are being misused to control, harass, stalk, and create non‑consensual deep‑fake pornography, a phenomenon the authors term technology‑facilitated abuse. It details three recent cases: smart glasses that can be covertly recorded and shared online despite manufacturer safeguards; Apple AirTags and similar trackers that enable covert stalking, especially of women, even though legislation criminalises unauthorised attachment; and AI‑driven “nudification” apps and deep‑fake generators that produce sexualised images of adults and minors, prompting UK legal reforms to mandate rapid removal of such content. The authors argue that despite rising harms, governments and tech companies have been slow to embed preventive guardrails into device design or to enforce strong penalties, leaving victims to bear the costs while platforms profit. They call for proactive safety‑by‑design measures, clearer regulations, and enforceable penalties to curb the abuse of emerging technologies.
