    The House Judiciary Committee released a report showing how the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) organized corporate cooperation aimed at silencing conservative viewpoints over the Internet by "demonetizing their platforms, podcasts, and news outlets." GARM's leader and co-founder, Rob Rakowitz emphasized that "our goal is to ensure that vendors don't inadvertently place ads on sites whose content could misinform the public. When we spot an ad on Breitbart, X, or Joe Rogan we contact the company to ask them if they really want ads for their product or service to be seen on these disreputable sites and whether they...

  • AT&T Says 'Nearly All' Of Its Customers' Call And Text Data Has Been Leaked In Massive Security Breach

    The Daily Mail ^ | 07/12/24 | Natsha Anderson and Stacy Liberatore
    AT&T suffered a massive data breach that saw data from 'nearly all' of its customers' accounts illegally downloaded, the company has confirmed. The compromised data included records of calls and texts of wireless subscribers and landline customers over a five month period in 2022. AT&T listed it had 110 million wireless customers that year, which would make this hack one of the biggest breaches of private communications data in recent history. Although the exposed data did not include customer names, there are 'publicly available online tools' capable of connecting numbers with people's identities, the company said. AT&T admitted it had...

  • MUST SEE: Who Is The Voter Participation Center? – How One Group Is Identifying All of the Addresses in Swing States Where Ballots Will Be Sent to Phantom Voters (VIDEO)

    Leftists create literally thousands of organizations – with the most innocent-sounding names – to hide their use of tax-free Dark Money to influence U.S. elections. The Fractal team, using advanced quantum technology, entered this organization – The Voter Participation Center – and into its recently released Fractal Dark Money System and the results were shocking. This one organization is tied to literally thousands of Leftist organizations, some tied to Chinese organizations, and in hundreds of cases tied to groups who are registering voters and running political campaigns. VIDEO AT LINK................... Some of these connected organizations are tied to Chinese Communist...

  • They Are Using Lab-Grown Human Brains That They Have Enslaved Called “Organoids” to Run Computers

    https://discernreport.com ^ | June 23, 2024 | Michael Snyder
    This approach saves an extraordinary amount of energy compared to normal computers, but there is a big problem. The lab-grown miniature human brains keep wearing out and dying, and so scientists have to keep growing new ones to replace them. Stem cells that are derived from human skin tissue are used to create the 16 spherical brain “organoids” that the system depends upon. I realize that this sounds like something straight out of a really bad science fiction movie, but it is actually happening. (snip) If the enslaved mini-brains do what they are supposed to do, they are rewarded with...

  • The Nation Rejoices As Another Left-Wing Smear Factory Suffers Mass Layoffs

    Daily Wire ^ | June 14, 2024 | Matt Walsh
    A couple of weeks ago, I covered the large round of layoffs at the Left-wing activist group known as Media Matters. Many conservatives celebrated the news because of course, Media Matters exists for the sole purpose of smearing the opponents of the Democratic Party. They misrepresent people’s words, stalk them on social media, and so on. But Media Matters’ dishonest attack on Elon Musk and Twitter appears to have been a bridge too far. Elon Musk fought back with a massive lawsuit, which Media Matters’ management cited as one reason for the layoffs. For my part, I wasn’t particularly thrilled...

    The Washington Post's CEO Will Lewis, announced that "we will be replacing most of our human reporters with artificial intelligence (AI). We are in a hole, and we have been for some time. It's clear that we cannot afford to continue as we have been. Many on our staff have already been submitting AI-generated text as their own work. They have, effectively, made themselves redundant. So, we are eliminating the middle men, their salaries, and their benefits. The electricity to run our AI is dirt-cheap by comparison." Recently, Google's AI has recommended "adding glue to pizza sauce" and suggested that...

    Times of India ^ | 5/21/24 | Abhinav Kaustubh
    Microsoft has unveiled a new category of Windows PCs called Copilot+ at a special event held at their campus in Redmond, Washington. These PCs are designed to handle more AI tasks locally, thanks to powerful hardware that includes dedicated neural processing units (NPUs) capable of at least 45 trillion operations per second (TOPS). Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella introduced the Copilot+ PCs, calling them "the fastest, most intelligent Windows PCs ever built." The company has partnered with major PC manufacturers like Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer, ASUS, and Samsung, as well as chipmakers Qualcomm, Intel, and AMD to bring these devices to...
  • We Are Being Warned That Nanobots Will Be Flowing Through Our Bodies “By 2030” And Will Be Used To Connect Our Brains To The Internet

    End of The American Dream ^ | 5/16/24 | Michael Snyder
    nce thousands of nanobots are zipping around inside your body, will you still be in control of your mind, will and emotions or will the nanobots be running the show? According to Google, a nanobot is “a hypothetical, very small, self-propelled machine, especially one that has some degree of autonomy and can reproduce”. Scientists here in the United States have been working on nanobots that can travel through our bodies at astonishing speeds, deliver medicines to targeted locations, and even enter our brain cells. Eventually, researchers hope to use nanobots to connect our brains directly to the Internet. I realize...

    President Biden has challenged former President Donald Trump to not one, but TWO presidential debates in the most cringe-worthy way possible. Not only does Biden want to circumvent the Commission on Presidential Debates, which would have suggested 3 debates, but he wants to hold the first one much earlier than usual — BEFORE the Democratic National Convention. Glenn has a theory as to why this is: Is he giving the Democratic Party enough time to REPLACE him if his polls keep dropping? Glenn, Pat, and Stu also review some of Biden’s ridiculous rule proposals and Trump’s quick response to the...

    Apple on Tuesday introduced a new chip called the M4 that it said would outclass personal computers designed for artificial intelligence - but put the new chip in an iPad Pro model rather than a laptop. -- "The neural engine makes M4 an outrageously powerful chip for AI," Tim Millet, vice president of platform architecture at Apple, said during the presentation. "In fact, with this level of performance, the neural engine and M4 is more powerful than any neural processing unit in any AI PC today."

Brave doesn't seem to want to download, but the web search pulled up the Vivaldi browser. (I guess you could say it's a browser for all four seasons.) Anyone used this browser? Know anything about it?
