The #EU Wants Its Own #DNS Resolver that Can Block ‘Unlawful’ Traffic

https://torrentfreak.com/the-eu-wants-its-own-dns-resolver-that-can-block-unlawful-traffic-220119/

The EU is planning to develop its own government-run DNS resolver. The project dubbed DNS4EU is meant to offer a counterweight to the popular resolvers that are mostly based in the U.S. Aside from offering privacy and security to users, the DNS solution will also be able to block "illegal" websites, including pirate sites.

NEW - Deported Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic buys 80% stake in Danish biotech company QuantBioRes aiming to develop an alternative COVID treatment.

Correction: apparently not bought now, already had it since last year. Many "news" sites are giving click bait titles

The investment was made in June 2020

Anarchy-Droid

One-Click Android rom installation assistant

Anarchy-Droid is an application designed to help you install custom roms on your Android device. It is supposed to make the process of finding, downloading and installing a rom (with addons like F-Droid and microG) as easy as possible. The primary audience is all the folks who do not really know anything about Android, TWRP or roms, but still would like to run a free, open-source and non-bloated Android on their devices. Using a free after-market rom like LineageOS should not be restricted to the few people with enough technical know-how to do the complex installation procedure all by themselves.

Anarchy-Droid is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. As of now, it should be working fine with many Samsung, OnePlus, Motorola, NVidia and Sony devices and with all other devices that already have TWRP installed.

Anarchy-Droid is the successor of Free-Droid which has been fully rewritten from scratch in go.

Google's weirdly pedantic Play Store crusade against all things 'free' is somehow getting even more ridiculous.

Bad translations and a semantically imprecise crackdown are causing issues for open source software on the Play Store

Independent developers have struggled with Google's Play Store developer support for years. The company claims to be doing more to make things better recently, with more actual human beings and fewer automated tools on the other end of those appeals, but it could still be doing much more in its role as the toll-taking gatekeeper for Android apps. Unfortunately for at least one developer, the company's reliance on automated tools has struck again: It looks like Google incorrectly flagged an open-source app because of its own reliance on machine translation as part of its new war against the word "free,"

An Analysis of Infiltration In Grassroots Health Freedom Movements
— @takebackourtech

Inspired by COVID-19 UP's Recent Post

An alarming report came out in October 2021 detailing sophisticated sabotage operations on local Health Freedom Groups such as World Wide Demonstration.

Some points of note:
- Deceptively similar looking organizations/groups are launched almost overnight to copy organic movements. These fake groups consist of central and extensive local groups
- Attackers convince local admins to let them install 'Rose' the bot by giving them permission to add new admins
- Rose the bot is used to silence the existing admins, and a federated ban list is imposed across all groups the infiltrators control
- The new admins cause havoc by double scheduling protest events, and encouraging members to bring guns
- They gaslight existing members for not being 'active' enough
- The bot is likely used to harvest all user info and asks members where they live

Attacks continue with the infiltrators controlling the narrative to make the groups seem like far-right extremist groups with constant discussion of modern conservative psyops. (audits / CRT / partisan politics)

How you can protect your group from infiltration:
- Be aware of new individuals who are eager to get admin privileges or install bots
- Be aware of new accounts posing as org admins to local groups
- Meet all core organizers in person regularly
- Be vigilant for members pushing for political discussion
- Be vigilant for members pushing for resistance or violence

As our movements grow we will continue to face adversity in the form of cowardly sabotage. Don't be a victim!

Ignore these desperate attempts to hijack the movement and continue to build parallel systems.

HAHAHA They are having to work overtime. Guess what? #TheGreatReset has been exposed and #ThePeoplesReset #TheGreaterReset will succeed

#Reuters has no conflict of interest here....

12ft.io - Hop any #paywall

https://12ft.io

Prepend 12ft.io/ to the URL of any paywalled page, and we'll try our best to remove the paywall and get you access to the article.

Why?
I believe Google Adwords killed the web. Google Adwords incentivized sites to peddle SEO optimized garbage. Sites who aren't are forced to optimize for email capture so they can market directly to you. Search results now show "news", ads, and SEO spam instead of surfacing information.

You ought to be able to search something on Google and get an answer to your question without signing up for some newsletter. This is why I created 12ft.io.

How does it work?
The idea is pretty simple, news sites want Google to index their content so it shows up in search results. So they don't show a paywall to the Google crawler. We benefit from this because the Google crawler will cache a copy of the site every time it crawls it.

All we do is show you that cached, unpaywalled version of the page.


🧗‍♂️ Add a “.” After the “.com” and it gets by the paywalls half the time too
“Www.thing.com.”

It’s a valid DNS name… technically is the correct way to spell a DNS name

Most sites don’t have the logic to detect the period at the end and thus their web routing rules don’t think to stick up the paywall

If ($uri like “thing.com/%” && !$loginValid) { $paywall=$true }

Else {$paywall=false}

They should have a regex to detect the period at the end but most web devs don’t know enough about DNS to include it in their regex
