Big Tech’s role in atrocity crimes is unfolding in real time. During Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza, Meta’s platforms have amplified incitement, disinformation, and paid propaganda while disproportionately silencing Palestinian voices.
💬Our panel will explore:
-Meta’s failures in moderation & accountability
-Legal & policy strategies for justice

DOJ Opens Grand Jury Criminal Investigation Fed Governor Lisa Cook Over Mortgage Fraud Allegations
DOJ Opens Grand Jury Criminal Investigation Fed Governor Lisa Cook Over Mortgage Fraud Allegations
The Department of Justice has opened a criminal investigation into Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook - and has issued multiple subpoenas as part of the inquiry into whether she committed mortgage fraud, according to the wsj.com/politics/policy/lisa-c…
, citing 'officials familiar with the matter.'
cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inl…
The probe - for which a grand jury has been assembled, will begin by looking at Cook's properties in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Atlanta. It comes on the heels of two criminal investigations from Federal Housing Finance Agency director Bill Pulte, who has been dropping receipts for weeks with evidence that Cook committed fraud - including claiming two properties as her "primary residence" - as well as claiming that a rented out zerohedge.com/political/feds-l…
was her 'second home' - all things that would qualify her for better rates and tax treatment.
Pulte accused Cook of misleading banks on multiple mortgage applications to receive favorable lending terms, such as lower interest rates, typically given to a buyer who intends to occupy the home they purchase.
A judge is considering Cook’s request for an emergency order stopping her from being removed from the Fed board while the case proceeds. The Fed’s next meeting is set to begin Sept. 16. -WSJ
Last Thursday, Cook filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration after President Donald Trump fired her that Monday 'for cause.' Among the excuses contained in the lawsuit for alleged mortgage fraud was a possible clerical error.
Except, Cook described herself in her 2023 nomination hearing as having "significant experience in banking and finance, as is evidenced by my service on the board of directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and of a Community Development Financial Institution in Michigan, in addition to my employment at an investment bank and a large commercial bank."
What's more, the Federal Reserve Act allows the president to fire Fed governors 'for cause' - which the Trump administration claims applies. In a Tuesday court filing, Cook's lawyers said she "did not ever commit mortgage fraud."
Pulte shot down any notion that the fed wasn't political in a Thursday appearance on CNBC, saying "I don't believe for the last 4 years that the Fed has been independent."

: "I don't believe for the last 4 years that the Fed has been independent...
You've got Lisa Cook who's being represented by Norm Eisen. Norm Eisen is the guy who tried to TAKE DOWN Trump, failed at it, but led the first impeachment... This is a raging Democrat." t.co/7yZFoJlBeC

According to the report, the DOJ investigation involves Ed Martin, a top DOJ official who AG Pam Bondi designated to investigate mortgage fraud among public officials.

Spicy Take:
Sometimes I think we get too hyperfocused on original content and plagiarism and being The Original Inventor. The entire history of human art, language, science etc is "hey, here's these cool and interesting things this other person did, I think I can remix it and add my own stuff to it and make it something different."
Copyright and patents were created as a concept that they could create legal protection allowing small people to make a living on "intellectual property", but like everything, it's become irrevocably corrupted by capitalists using it against people to actually prevent innovation and remixing and creating.
Fanfiction spinoffs of Star Wars can't be sold without inciting the wrath of Disney Lawyers, and even when given away live in a very fragile grey market. Reverse engineer a patch for a Microsoft product, and get sued. Reimplement a Java API and spend billions and a decade fighting Oracle. Want to do a simple chemical synthesis to make a lifesaving medication at a fraction of the price? Go to jail.
Like it's not even worth it. It stifles human creativity and progress by letting corps own every product of our minds.
What artists want is not IP, what artists want is something like "the moral rights of the artist". Their confusion between the two has led to some anarchists being angry with me.
(Artists, like anyone, also want to not starve etc, but that's not really a special case.)

Trump told leaders on today’s call that Europe must stop buying Russian oil and step up economic pressure on China, Reuters reports. The call has ended.
😂 And the US will postpone any pressure on Russia for two more weeks.

🔴 « Assassiné ! » - Sur la place de la République, lecture des noms des enfants palestiniens assassinés par l'armée génocidaire
Depuis le début du génocide à Gaza, entre 150 000 et 200 000 palestiniens ont été massacrés de façon directe ou indirecte par l'armée de Benjamin Netanyahu.
Depuis 23 mois de génocide, Emmanuel Macron n'a toujours pas décrété d'embargo sur les armes ni suspendu les accords de coopération entre l'Union européenne et l'État d'Israël.
Samedi 6 septembre, LFI et de nombreuses organisations appellent à participer à la manifestation pour exiger la fin du génocide en cours à Gaza. La manifestation partira à 14h de la place de la République à Paris, en direction de la place de la Nation.

Spammer des tages: guhgell
Vor mehr als drei Jahren hat noyb eine Beschwerde gegen Google eingereicht, weil das Unternehmen unerwünschte Werbe-E-Mails direkt in den Posteingang von Gmail-Nutzer:innen verschickt hatte. Entgegen dem EU-Recht hatte das Unternehmen die Betroffenen nie um ihre Einwilligung gebeten. So sieht es auch die zuständige französische Datenschutzbehörde (CNIL): Die CNIL hat nun eine Entscheidung veröffentlicht, in der sie sich auf die Seite von noyb stellt – und eine Geldstrafe von €325 Millionen Euro gegen Google verhängt […] Neben der Geldstrafe in Höhe von 325 Millionen Euro hat die CNIL Google angeordnet „Maßnahmen zu ergreifen, um die Anzeige von Werbung zwischen E-Mails in den Postfächern der Nutzer des Gmail-Dienstes ohne vorherige Zustimmung einzustellen und sicherzustellen, dass die Nutzer bei der Erstellung eines Google-Kontos ihre gültige Zustimmung zur Platzierung von Werbe-Cookies geben.“ Google hat nun 6 Monate Zeit, das umzusetzen. Kommt das Unternehmen der Aufforderung nicht nach, muss es eine Strafe von €100.000 pro Tag der Verzögerung zahlen

Personally, if the only issue was Angela Rayner being given the wrong advice then paying the tax when discovered I would not have an issue with it.
It is because she was getting advice on how to use a legal loophole to avoid tax, while talking about trying to close the legal loopholes that bothers me. I'd feel the same had she successfully used it.
C'est avec beaucoup de peine que nous avons appris mardi soir la disparition de Lovis IX, cofondateur d'Exodus Privacy, président actuel de l'association et surtout ami.
Hacktiviste vindicatif, il savait en découdre avec les administrations et nous a aidé à en découdre avec les pisteurs. Que ce soit au clavier avec ses bons mots ou au pétrin avec son pain, il avait à cœur de nourrir les personnes qu'il rencontrait. Ses râleries autant que ses blagues nous manqueront.
