Zoom confirms Chinese Government asked it to suspend activists accounts over Tiananmen Square meetings

U.S. video conferencing company Zoom issued a statement on Thursday acknowledging that the Chinese government requested that it suspend the accounts of several U.S.- and Hong Kong-based Chinese activists for holding events commemorating the anniversary of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.

The big picture: Zoom claims that it only took action because the Chinese government informed the company that "this activity is illegal in China" and that meeting metadata showed "a significant number of mainland China participants." Zoom said it does not have the ability to block participants from a certain country, and so it made the decision to end some of the meetings and suspend the host accounts.

Europol uses Palantir

Since 2016, the European Police Agency has been using the "Gotham" software to evaluate mass data. Europol has signed a contract for 7.5 million euros with the company Capgemini in 2012, just over half of the money has already been spent. Palantir promoted the software at the "European Police Congress".

The police agency Europol in The Hague has been running the "Gotham" software of the US concern Palantir for several years. This is what the European Commission writes in its answer to a parliamentary question. The application was tested in 2016 within the framework of the "Fraternité" task force, which Europol set up after the attacks in France at the time. Palantir is also criticised for his close cooperation with the military and secret services in the USA.

Since mid-2017, "Gotham" has been in continuous operation, Europol uses it for "operational analysis". This enables investigators to calculate and visualize relationships between people, objects or the course of events. "Structured data", such as contact lists, tables from radio cell queries and travel histories, are linked with "unstructured data" such as photos or location data. This so-called mass data evaluation is intended to generate new investigative approaches.

No, I'm not installing your app to order food.

https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/apps-track-you

Tracking is the new gold. Shops are following Google's example with their own tracking apps.

The outcry was loud when politicians started talking about corona tracing apps: Where is the privacy protection? How do we make sure that our personal data does not get into the wrong hands? Now, that we are sensitized against app tracking, do you know which apps track your every move, your browsing behavior, your shopping activities?

While everyone is talking about corona tracking apps and Google's extensive tracking, it is worrisome that no one talks about the tracking methods of every other app.

#ExposeBillGates Global Day of Action on June 13, 2020

A non-partisan coalition of alternative media organizations and activist groups are calling for a Global Day of Action to #ExposeBillGates and his control agenda.

In the first few months of 2020, billionaire Bill Gates has been promoted as the savior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although he is lauded as a hero Gates has been a force of disruption and shaky science. The truth is Bill Gates hides a darker agenda.

Gates has made numerous media appearances calling for extended lock downs, contact tracing surveillance, digital certificates to travel and work, and announced his intention to vaccinate 7 billion people. Gates’ family also has ties to discredited eugenics science and believes billionaires like him should help reduce the world’s population. (For those who might be new to this information we recommend watching The Bill Gates documentary series from The Corbett Report and/or reading The Bill Gates investigation from The Last American Vagabond Part 1, Part 2, Part 3)

It’s time to #ExposeBillGates and expose his agenda. Together we can shine the light on Gates’ true intentions and change the course of humanity.

WHEN: Join us on Saturday June 13, 2020 as we spread the word about Bill Gates’ agenda. We encourage everyone interested to organize and host documentary screenings, share articles, pass out flyers, drop banners, and share on social media using the hashtag #ExposeBillGates. We encourage everyone to share accurate and credible information about Gates’ goals. This is a non-partisan event and activists from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome.

To help spread the word about #ExposeBillGates Day please make this image your profile pic on all social media accounts. You can also download these flyers for sharing, editing, etc (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Whatsapp blamed own users for failure to keep phone number repo off Google searches

An infosec researcher reckons Whatsapp was a bit too quick off the mark to blame its users when hundreds of thousands of phone numbers, names and profile pictures were found to be easily accessible via Google.

Athul Jayaram, a self-described “full time bug bounty hunter”, published a blog post earlier this week highlighting that a large number of Whatsapp users’ mobile numbers could easily be found by searching Google for the domain “wa.me”.

That domain formed part of Whatsapp’s Click to Chat function. If you, the owner of a Whatsapp account, fancied letting world+dog add you as a new chat contact rather than going through the tedious process of tapping their phone number into yours, digit by digit, you could generate a QR code (yes, one of those things 🤦‍♂️…) for them to do so.

Billed as a feature for businesses wanting to make customer communication easier, Click to Chat QR shortcodes resolved to https://wa.me along with a unique URL string. The unique string just happened to be the full phone number of the user.
