Can anyone recommend phones you can get which Google don't have dominion over?

California mandates "Age" Verification for all Operating Systems including Linux by OrionsMask in c/technology@hexbear.net

What the fuck is up with the ruling class's push on age verification on everything the past year? Does anyone actually know what the deal is?

My brain goes to the theory that they want to create undodgable ways to surveil everyone after the Luigi incident so everyone's ID (and photo) is on record, making them easier to track - I trust these people not storing identifiable information as much as I trust my phone to not be recording 24/7. The fact that Palantir has started to spread like mold in every industry with sizable information databases too.

Guy Hochman, was detained upon arrival at Toronto Pearson international airport and only released after the intervention of the Israeli consulate, according to the Times of Israel.

Hochman called for the “mass killing and extermination” of Palestinians, advocated for the use of nuclear weapons against Gaza, celebrated civilian deaths, and called for the starvation, displacement and collective punishment of Palestinians, among other statements. He also called for the destruction of religious sites, including stating that “not a single mosque will remain in Gaza”.

He confirmed the detention in a social media post. “They tried to stop me from entering Canada, but after 6 hours of delay, I got in,” he wrote. “They tried to prevent me from performing in front of the Israeli community, I performed.

“And while they kept shouting ‘free Palestine’ to themselves in minus 10 degrees, we warmed up with laughter–400 Israelis inside. That’s what victory feels like.”

Just remember that although these people may look and behave like devils, they are bags of meat no more durable than any other human.

The day the US gets nuked, their people will be screaming and crying and shitting their pants and calling it the greatest tragedy ever, and I will be cackling with uncontrollable joy. Fuck you US, fuck you Americans.

I, John Brown, am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. by OrionsMask in c/news@hexbear.net

Remember. One day they will try to tell you that these people are innocent victims, just like they tried with the settlers on October 7th, a lie they repeat to this day. Remember that it's all bullshit. Remember how evil these people are and how they will deserve everything they get.

They're propagandists. Journalism and propaganda are intrinsically tied, and western journalists are responsible for poisoning the minds of entire populations.

I always see the death of journalists as a great tragedy and injustice when they're targeted in the name of imperial interests. But man, American journalists need a goddamn purge.

This SCOTUS ruling sets the precedent that the office of the Presidency is immune to any legal repercussions for crimes committed as part of an ‘official act’. Any president can now do whatever they want in office and face 0 consequences for it.

I mean, this is largely how it's always been, right? It's just now they're being super brazen about it?
