 The Surveillance Economy and its Discontents
Alexei Goldstein via dulcie, Monday, Sep 3 2018, 8:16am
In 2016, Amazon Web Services released Rekognition, a service that lets users analyze digital imagery in order to identify objects, including faces, based on a machine-learning algorithm. The company has touted uses for this product that include identifying triggering content in images, determining emotions in an image, cashier-less grocery stores (which they have implemented in Amazon Go) — and, most worrisome, “public safety.” (story and 1 image)

Google Reportedly Bought People's Banking Data In Secret, And That Isn't Even The Bad News
Adam Clark Estes via gus, Monday, Sep 3 2018, 7:44am
In a post-capitalistic world that seems very specifically and violently designed to rip off the poor for the benefit of the rich, spending money is complicated. But at least, until recently, you could live without fear that some multibillion-dollar Silicon Valley giant would buy up your banking data in order to serve you more effective ads.

 Extra-judicial Kill Lists: Murder by Algorithm
Tom Emswiler and Will Isenberg via jane, Monday, Sep 3 2018, 12:03am
The USA ILLEGALLY murders anyone it chooses anywhere in the world. Those SECRETLY selected for execution are the unlucky 'winners' of an insentient mathematical formula/lottery, known as an algorithm. It should be noted that algorithms cannot think or judge, it's limited mathematics at work that determines who is to live or die; and if you think that reality is an outrage you would be right, extra-judicial kill lists are grossly illegal by name and nature, the RESPONSIBILITY for this American CRIMINAL outrage falls squarely on the shoulders of International Courts as kill lists more often than not, target citizens from a host of nations. Law abiding nations should immediately test, in international courts, ANY nation that imagines itself ABOVE the LAW, it really is that simple.

The Weaponization of the US Dollar
Pepe Escobar via suzie, Sunday, Sep 2 2018, 10:50pm
The Iranian rial: crash. The Turkish lira: crash. The Argentine peso: crash. The Brazilian real: crash. There are multiple, complex, parallel vectors at play in this wilderness of crashing currencies. Turkey’s case is heavily influenced by the bubble of easy credit created by European banks.

Leaders and Followers
lex, Saturday, Sep 1 2018, 9:08pm
This situation prevails today as it has throughout human history -- the need of the weak to follow the strong. This became the most popular model when REAL leaders led their groups/tribes/nations by EXAMPLE and fought wars on the front line with their followers who were proud to fight for the cause that leaders espoused. We note the historical record in this regard, ancient Greek heroes, the foremost of which was Alexander. Roman Caesars who led their conquering armies and expanded the empire until it was subverted from within by money/corruption and the destructive intrigues of WEAK men’s politics.

Provocations Have A History Of Escalating Into War
Paul Craig Roberts via jan, Friday, Aug 31 2018, 11:06pm
The following article by Paul Craig Roberts is worth a read if only to demonstrate how naivety and personal bias are able to distort one's perception of REALITY. Mr Roberts has failed to address Putin's enormous personal WEALTH in the hundreds of $millions which is ferreted away in WESTERN banks and western offshore tax havens and he should note that Swiss banks that have no difficulty freezing $5 billion in Russian assets NEVER touch Putin's filthy corruption cash assets, which could never be earned as a Russian politician. So the case for corruption by globalist interests that rule the USA, is HUGE. (story and 2 images)

Sickening: Australia's new Conservative PM, Scott Morrison Bans Entry of Chelsea Manning
Jon Queally via stacey, Thursday, Aug 30 2018, 10:59pm
Australia's clearly UNREPRESENTATIVE conservative political party, only weeks out of one of the most appalling internal leadership spills in the country's history, has immediately demonstrated to VOTERS that the new PM neither respects nor represents Australia's love of free speech AND acquiring information by banning whistleblower Chelsea Manning from the country to give talks; an APPALLING but expected action from the new arch-conservative, treasonous Washington lap dog, Scott Morrison. Either this man is blind to the electoral consequences of his clearly UN-AUSTRALIAN action or he is aware that the party is finished in the next federal poll and has decided to acquiesce to Washington's desires to gag a person whose only 'crime' is exposing REAL U.S. war, and other crimes against humanity. Australians would soon have their say at the POLLS. (story and 1 image)

Big Telecoms on Verge of Net Neutrality Defeat in California
Jon Queally via shaz, Thursday, Aug 30 2018, 10:09pm
Closing in on a major defeat for the powerful corporate interests trying to wrest control of how the internet functions, the California Assembly on Thursday night overwhelmingly passed SB 822, a bill that proponents have call "the strongest and most comprehensive state level net neutrality bill in the country."

Unstoppable Political Sea Change in the Making
nano, Wednesday, Aug 29 2018, 10:17pm
It is true that all western governments serve unrepresentative minority elites, politicians lie to gain power much like Trump lied about ‘draining the Washington swamp’ and ‘jailing Hillary Clinton’ for her many un-prosecuted crimes. But where does it all go after the victorious party gains office? Indeed, up the political spout, which reality has been proven in EVERY western ‘democracy’ time and again, and the masses are acutely aware of the fact.

Get ready for a major geopolitical chessboard rumble: from now on, every butterfly fluttering its wings and setting off a tornado directly connects to the battle between Eurasian integration and Western sanctions as foreign policy.

Apply the Pin-prick Test to all Mass Media Propaganda
neil, Tuesday, Aug 28 2018, 7:57pm
The NYT recently published a story, linked below, intended of course to convince the public there is substance to the 'Russiagate' fabrication/fiction -- Russiagate is repeated incessantly in the media primarily because no proof exists to implicate Russia or any other EXTERNAL party in Clinton's loss to Trump; clearly the Democrats just can't take the truth/reality, Hillary lost because the public detested her and what she stood for, pure and simple.

There is NOTHING United About the United States
zlatko, Tuesday, Aug 28 2018, 9:23am
Not being an American I really have to laugh over the degree of disunity in the USA. Far from a binary division like the civil war, ‘blues and greys,’ today we have every imaginable group politically, theologically and socially apart, though each group is distinct and opposes, at the very least, the ideology/theology/ideal/race etc, of other groups, which of course leads to RUIN, be told by an external observer.

Why US Imperialism Loves Afghan Quagmire
Finian Cunningham, Tuesday, Aug 28 2018, 3:35am
It may seem paradoxical that any American interest would seek to deliberately prolong the Afghan quagmire. Costing trillions of dollars to the national debt, one would think that US planners are anxious to wind down the war and cut their immense losses. Not so, it seems.

Former Oz PM Kevin Rudd -- Put Murdoch on Trial for Interfering with Oz Democracy
cyd, Monday, Aug 27 2018, 7:55pm
Rudd recently commented on the turmoil which now characterises Australian politics and levelled majority blame on Rupert Murdoch, a media mogul and plutocrat able to character assassinate any politician at home and abroad if they do not comply with his wishes, which of course are self-serving and guided by his ultra-right wing political ideology -- ‘who do those political fleas think they are interfering with MY plans,’ is essentially Murdoch’s sentiment and Rudd should know as he was once supported by the Murdoch media but on condition. Remember the absurdist Murdoch plan of a “NATO of the South Pacific” which obliged Rudd was forced to run with, unsuccessfully of course. (story and 2 images)

US-UK Preparing Another Chemical False Flag in Syria
Peter Korzun via jillian, Monday, Aug 27 2018, 9:23am
The US warned Russia it would attack Syria again if chemical weapons (CW) were used by the government forces. According to Bloomberg, National Security Adviser John Bolton told his Russian counterpart, Nikolai Patrushev, at a meeting in Geneva on Aug. 23 that the US “is prepared to respond with greater military force than it has used against Assad’s regime in the past.” US officials supposedly “have information” that the Syrian military is preparing a chemical attack in Syria’s northwestern province of Idlib. Mr. Bolton had also stressed publicly the US readiness to use force on a larger scale before the meeting with his Russian counterpart. (story and 1 image)
