Tor somehow manages to get worse

Soumis par Aggregation le mer, 06/29/2016 - 21:19
Our old friends at have had a hard time of it recently. The public face of Tor, Jacob Appelbaum, was forced to resign from the project when it was revealed he apparently is a sexual predator.The first thing you should note is that he was forced to resign after it was revealed he’s a serial rapist - not “he was fired because…” - Tor’s leadership knew about this for a long time.

Hypocrisy Beyond Comprehension

Soumis par Aggregation le lun, 04/25/2016 - 19:22
You may have noticed that was all aflutter about the impeachment process against Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff last week. I decided to take a look at their coverage which is being led by team captain Glenn Greenwad’s partner, David Miranda. First he co-authored a piece with Saint Glenn and Andrew Fishman for Pierre Omidyar’s The Intercept. Followed a few days later with an op-ed in The Guardian.

Anarchist Empire

Soumis par Aggregation le dim, 02/21/2016 - 13:28
Have you ever been hit with the realization that you haven’t thought about a particular person for a relatively significant period of time? Such an instance happened to me just now when someone else reminded me that celebrity left anarchist Charles Davis exists on this Earth along with the rest of us. I simply hadn’t thought of that ridiculous moron in I don’t know how long, and it was good.I’m not bitter that I was reminded of Chuckles. Indeed, it gives me a chance to say something here I’ve been meaning to say for a very long time.

NFL Films: Saving the world from stupid reality since 1962

Soumis par Aggregation le dim, 06/28/2015 - 07:48
The final moments of the New England Patriots first Superbowl win back in 2002 were quite dramatic. The final play of the game, an Adam Vinatieri field goal, decided the outcome. The third to last play of the game may not have been its most dramatic - a short pass from Tom Brady to Tight End Jermaine Wiggins - but it made Vinatieri’s attempt a shorter and higher percentage one.

Explaining Chomsky to Chomsky fans

Pokemon: even if you disagree with him on lets say 90% of what that he stands for, he should be celebrated for his courageous work on exposing NSA and Mass surveillance
Selection of topics is the most important factor in Herman and Chomsky’s propaganda model.You don’t like “Mass surveillance”? Have you noticed that Saint Glenn doesn’t write about Google’s for-profit surveillance? (In fact he often openly mocks journalists who do on social media) Google, Facebook, Microsoft, etc. have it in their terms of use that they can

Republican Presidential Hopefuls All In Favor of Socialized Medicine!

I don’t really follow local news much. If I did it’s safe to assume I would be more vocal about living in a state run by an Koch Tea Party douche. (To all you real leftists out there, even though it’s my mother we are talking about, I do apologize for doing something as gauche as referring to

Snooping around the fake Left I came across a predictable reaction to some Tim Shorrock critical of a privacy activist who doubles as a Pentagon contractor’s call for the personal information of 4 million Americans to be posted online:imagePosted by a confused, uninformed Pokemon there is nothing

The Bad Opinions of Horrible People

Soumis par Aggregation le mar, 04/28/2015 - 09:05
Last night, as a joke, I tried confronting a Twitter troll with my perception of who they are as a person. I was given a firm answer:imageHonestly? I probably do. But, as always whenever I confront an Emoprog Army troll, couchdefiler was quickly joined in her unprovoked attacks by twitterer dongohuber.

Belichick shines as America whines

Soumis par Aggregation le lun, 02/02/2015 - 15:45
imageWatching the narratives the media has been feeding the masses this NFL season has something other than else. A month into the season sharp minds at Bill Belichick press conferences were pressing the coach on whether he had supplied Tom Brady with enough talent to compete with the likes of (ahem) Peyton Manning.

Roger Goodell: Poster Boy For American Incompetence

Soumis par Aggregation le mer, 01/21/2015 - 13:01
At halftime of a week 1 NFL game between the Jets and Patriots in 2007 the Jets alerted NFL officials that the Patriots were using a camera on their sideline to tape the Jets sideline during the game. New NFL commissioner Roger Goodell investigated the matter and penalized the Patriots with a hefty fine and also took away a valuable draft pick. That, perhaps thought Roger, was that. But, Roger was wrong.

Craigslist Killer

Soumis par Aggregation le mar, 12/02/2014 - 19:51
Shocking court documents add another piece to the horrifying puzzle that is eBay / PayPal billionaire Pierre Omidyar. Ten years ago Omidyar willfully perpetrated fraud and stole from his business partners at Craigslist. He did this not only to enrich himself, but also to spitefully crush a business model that rejected the established neoliberal principles of corporate culture. Allegedly.

Corruption At First Look Media Appears To Be Total

Soumis par Aggregation le dim, 11/09/2014 - 12:09
Has Pierre Omidyar lost his mind? The eBay / PayPal billionaire has apparently prevented Matt Taibbi from reporting the story he paid him to investigate for First Look Media. The story featured a whistle-blower speaking out about JPMorgan, their predatory lending prosecution, and the way corporations are able to gag reporting on their corruption - a legal power to keep the public ignorant which Taibbi says allows the unethical banking practices to continue.

Why is it I’ve never heard anyone criticize the Three Stooges for their shocking attitudes on social Darwinism? As they were making anti-Nazi propaganda films they were also making shorts that advanced the idea that heredity, not environment, is the deciding factor in our behavior.

Tor: Neoliberal Tool of Corporate America

Soumis par Aggregation le jeu, 08/07/2014 - 08:48
image I kept thinking about how Tor pimps always cite people living in repressive countries as the reason we need the anonymity tool. Finally it occurred to me - they aren&;t worried about a political dissident in China being able to use the internet without fear. They are worried about a billion potential corporate customers being blocked by a government.

Edward Snowden: Corporate Shill

Soumis par Aggregation le ven, 08/01/2014 - 16:14
Two months before Edward Snowden met Glenn Greenwald in Hong Kong I about the massive amount of coverage the New York Times was giving to a story about Chinese military hackers. I concluded that along with a push to increase publicly funded computer research the elite media was also advocating for COINTELPRO style activity against dissidents like Anonymous.
When Hoover started COINTELPRO it wasn’t to fight crime, it was to crush dissent.
