'Technofascist military fantasy': Spotify faces boycott calls over CEO’s investment in AI military startup
Spotify, the world’s leading music streaming platform, is facing intense criticism and boycott calls following CEO Daniel Ek’s announcement of a €600m ($702m) investment in Helsing, a German defence startup specialising in AI-powered combat drones and military software.
The move, announced on 17 June, has sparked widespread outrage from musicians, activists and social media users who accuse Ek of funnelling profits from music streaming into the military industry.
Many have started calling on users to cancel their subscriptions to the service.
“Finally cancelling my Spotify subscription – why am I paying for a fuckass app that works worse than it did 10 years ago, while their CEO spends all my money on technofascist military fantasies?” said one user on X.

Inside the face scanning tech behind social media age limits
As age restrictions on social media gain political momentum, biometric software is being explored as a way to effectively enforce any potential laws. However, critics warn that privacy and surveillance issues could arise if these tools become more widespread in policing the internet. So, should this technology be used to build a safer, more secure internet?

ईडी रेड: ADC के ठिकानों पर ईडी की छापेमारी, 32 लाख की कारें, 40 बैंक खाते और तीन लॉकर बरामद; जानें पूरा मामला
Himachal News: प्रवर्तन निदेशालय ने ईडी रेड के तहत धर्मशाला में सहायक ड्रग कंट्रोलर निशांत सरीन के ठिकानों पर छापा मारा। 22-23 जून को हिमाचल, हरियाणा, और पंजाब में सात जगहों पर तलाशी हुई। 32 लाख की दो गाड़ियां, 40 बैंक खाते, और तीन लॉकर सीज किए गए। सरीन के घर से 60 से ज्यादा शराब की बोतलें मिलीं। जांच में एल-50 लाइसेंस भी बरामद हुआ, जो होम बार के लिए होता है।
जांच का दायरा बढ़ा
ईडी रेड में सरीन के न्यू चंडीगढ़ स्थित आवास से बरामद शराब की बोतलें आबकारी विभाग को सौंपी गईं। जांच एजेंसी यह पता लगा रही है कि सरकारी अधिकारी को इतनी शराब रखने की जरूरत क्यों थी। एल-50 लाइसेंस की मौजूदगी सवाल उठाती है। क्या यह सिर्फ शौक था या कुछ और? जांच अब इस दिशा में भी आगे बढ़ रही है। दस्तावेजों और डिजिटल साक्ष्यों की गहन पड़ताल जारी है।
भ्रष्टाचार के पुराने मामले
निशांत सरीन पर पहले भी भ्रष्टाचार के आरोप लगे थे। 2019 में बद्दी में तैनाती के दौरान उन्हें हिमाचल पुलिस ने गिरफ्तार किया था। तब उन पर फार्मा कंपनियों से रिश्वत लेने का आरोप था। 2022 में हरियाणा पुलिस ने सरीन और उनके सहयोगी कोमल खन्ना के खिलाफ जालसाजी का मामला दर्ज किया। यह मामला झेनिया फार्मास्यूटिकल्स में साझेदारी विलेख से जुड़ा था। जांच में और खुलासे की संभावना है।
संपत्ति और लाइसेंस पर सवाल
ईडी रेड ने सरीन की संपत्ति पर भी सवाल उठाए। 40 से ज्यादा बैंक खाते, फिक्स्ड डिपॉजिट, और तीन लॉकर बरामद हुए। उनके पास एल-50 लाइसेंस का होना हैरान करता है। शराब कानून विशेषज्ञों के अनुसार, यह लाइसेंस बड़े पैमाने पर शराब संग्रह के लिए होता है। जांच एजेंसी इस बात की तह तक जा रही है कि क्या सरीन का आवास पार्टी स्थल था। दस्तावेजों की जांच से और रहस्य खुल सकते हैं।
आबकारी विभाग की भूमिका
ईडी रेड के बाद बरामद शराब की बोतलें आबकारी विभाग को सौंपी गईं। ईडी ने विभाग को लिखित जानकारी दी है। जांच अब शराब के स्रोत और इसके पीछे की मंशा पर केंद्रित है। सरीन के परिवार और फार्मा कंपनियों के बीच वित्तीय लेनदेन की भी जांच हो रही है। आने वाले दिनों में और बड़े खुलासे हो सकते हैं। यह मामला हिमाचल में भ्रष्टाचार की गहरी जड़ों को उजागर कर रहा है।

Gaza’s Grassroots Effort to Ensure Humanitarian Aid Reaches Starving Palestinians

"On Tuesday, the National Gathering of Palestinians Tribes, Clans, and Families convened a meeting in Gaza City to launch the initiative. “These trucks arriving in besieged Gaza—which has been starved for 90 days by our enemy—must reach their rightful recipients, the needy,” said Abu Salman al-Mughni, a tribal leader.[...]For this reason, the tribes, from all factions, have united to secure these trucks, ensuring they reach the warehouses and are then distributed fairly to all our people.”"

Successful local efforts to get aid into north Gaza met with Israeli backlash
Successful local Palestinian efforts to organise the entry of aid to northern Gaza have prompted fresh restrictions by the Israeli military and violent looting by criminal gangs.
Relief was brought into north Gaza for the first time in a month on Wednesday by local tribes, drawing anger from Israeli officials and members of the Israeli public.
Northern Gaza has been under full siege since March, when Israel blocked all aid and goods from entering the territory and created a severe hunger crisis.
In late May, the US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF), a recently launched and scandal-hit aid group, began distributing limited food parcels at four locations in south and central Gaza.
The northern parts of the Palestinian enclave remain largely cut off from aid distributed through this mechanism. However, Israel has recently allowed a limited number of aid trucks carrying only wheat flour to enter some areas of the north.
According to local reports, the recent Palestinian-led relief delivery, backed by local clans, saw several trucks enter safely and successfully, with their contents distributed on Thursday.
Footage circulating online show dozens of trucks carrying aid from the United Nations World Food Programme entering the northern Gaza Strip.

Sorella di Perfezione – Giuseppe Iannozzi presenta il suo nuovo libro – LFA Publisher
Sinossi – Sorella di Perfezione
Sorella di Perfezione offre al lettore poesie che trattano molteplici temi: amore, amicizia, erotismo, vita, morte, tristezza, solitudine, paranoia, ossessione, spiritualità. L’autore Giuseppe Iannozzi è stato influenzato da molti poeti, classici e contemporanei: Catullo, John Keats, Edgar Allan Poe, Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud, Federico García Lorca, William B. Yeats, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Charles Bukowski, Paul Celan, José Saramago, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, etc. Le poesie di Giuseppe Iannozzi sono veri e propri quadri, ogni lirica racconta una storia. La nostra esistenza terrena non ci offre certezze che si possano definire assolute. L’autore è consapevole che l’amore non è eterno, perché troppi sono gli sbalzi d’umore e i capricci dell’umanità. In Sorella di Perfezione, Giuseppe Iannozzi mette in luce la fragilità dei sentimenti e la caducità della vita umana. In questa raccolta di poesie non troverete risposte che possano lenire il dolore esistenziale che ognuno di noi, giorno dopo giorno, deve affrontare, ma imparerete a interrogare il vostro IO, quello più profondo e oscuro.

As Hurricane Season Picks Up, Key Forecasting Tool Access Set to End
The US Navy will no longer distribute certain satellite readings, a move that will leave forecasters without important insights into storms’ strength and structure.
What's going on is that the same microwave measurements that are used to track hurricanes also are used to monitor sea ice, and they showed an ongoing loss of sea ice as a result of the warming caused by greenhouse gases that result from fossil fuel consumption. So the Trump administration decided to cut off access to make it harder to monitor sea ice.

As discussed on the attached patch, it doesn't sound like unified push is a direction we want to go in at the moment.
So i'm going to close the bug, but do appreciate the interesting exploration and discussion it has generated.
Thank you to everyone who contributed thoughts, time and code to this issue!

hello - thank you for looking into this and submitting this patch stack!
I have asked around a few people internally but unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a lot of support for the idea of moving to Unified Push.
So I think it would be best to abandon the stack rather than spend more time working on this implementation.
Sorry to have to say that and sorry it's taken so long to get back to you with this message!
We appreciate your time and effort here and hope that you will still consider contributing to firefox in the future.

Iran's supreme leader claims 'victory' in his first comments after U.S. strikes
Iran's government also voted to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, which will stymie efforts to monitor its uranium enrichment.
Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, broke his weeklong silence Thursday, claiming in a televised speech that his country had secured a victory over Israel and delivered a "slap in the face" to Washington.
Hours earlier, Iran's government also approved legislation to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, a move that will stymie efforts to assess the damage from U.S. airstrikes and monitor uranium enrichment.
“The Islamic Republic emerged victorious and, in return, delivered a harsh slap to America’s face,” Khamenei said after eight days of silence.

EU leaders try to out-bully Trump, floating world trade club without US
For six months, Donald Trump has upended the global trading order, threatening and announcing tariffs, then easing them to open negotiations, while warning that punitive levies will be reimposed if the terms are not to his liking.
With just 13 days until the Trump-imposed deadline to conclude a EU-U.S. deal, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen decided the time for conventional negotiating tactics was over.
She floated the idea that the EU’s 27 countries could join forces with 12 members of the Asian-led Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership bloc (CPTPP) — which now includes the U.K. — to form a new world trade initiative.
The new grouping would redesign a rules-based global trading order, reforming or perhaps even replacing the now largely defunct World Trade Organization, she said.
Crucially, the U.S. would not automatically be invited.

Abstract: Over 188 million people in the United States use a subscription video streaming service, yet digital piracy remains prevalent and costs the U.S. economy an estimated $29.2 billion annually. This paper investigates the relationship between a movie's availability on Netflix, the largest video subscription service, and intent to illegally stream the movie. We leverage a contract dispute that caused Epix (a cable network company) to move all its movies from Netflix to Hulu, representing a substantial decrease in the legal streaming availability of these movies. Using a difference-in-differences design, we find that reducing legal streaming access via the removal of Epix movies from Netflix results in a 20% increase in piracy intent relative to movies that remained on Netflix, as measured by Google search volume. This study contributes to the understanding of the substitution between legal streaming services and movie piracy and has implications for content owners deciding what platform to offer their movie on.
