Friends,
We regret to inform our community that the Freedom Cells website (FreedomCells.org) is not currently active.
In truth, it has not been functioning correctly for some months. We apologize for that and for any inconvenience.
Our goal is always to help foster local connections in hopes of building a decentralized network of freedom communities. We have succeeded in that, but we know we can do better.
At the same time, at the end of the day, the Freedom Cell Network is not on a website or even on Telegram. It is in the real world. It is in each of you who go out and connect with like minds in your area and start focusing on solutions for building independence and autonomy.
Still, we recognize that the website has been a useful tool and we want to have it available for those who are struggling to find people in their area.
We are putting together a plan to rebuild the website and do it in a way that is more secure, more private, and more decentralized than ever.
Please stay tuned and keep building.
- Derrick Broze

⚡️Choosing Your Own Path: Spiritual Awakening and Free Will
On Word Up with Dani Katz, I shared a bit about my journey from diving into conspiracies to seeking deeper spiritual truths. Over time, I realized it’s not just about uncovering what’s wrong in the world, but about understanding that we all have free will. We’re all evolving together, experiencing life firsthand and choosing our own path. And sometimes it just clicks that you can choose where you want to be and the life you want to cultivate.

Apparently, Android Authority is the only major publication which has not yet posted on the leak about Pixel 11 series will feature MediaTek M90 flagship modem thus ditching Exynos modem
Looks like none of the 69 authors in Android Authority is interested in posting about others' leaks after their own "exclusive" leak about Pixel 10 series will feature the MediaTek modem turned out to be fake.

Xiaomi's HyperOS: Where Every Third-Party App Gets an 'Exit Interview'
Xiaomi allows users to uninstall system apps like gallery from its hyperOS. While doing it, Xiaomi has added an interface that will warn the users about cons of uninstalling that particular system app like, when uninstalling the gallery app, "photos and albums could not be viewed" etc
However, its Xiaomi, thus Xiaomi's own software interfaces have NO authentication at all. So, 3rd apps like Byte dance and Kuaishou are now abusing this feature to scare users if they try to uninstall their app.
For example, when you try to uninstall TikTok, it will show a prompt saying that:
"You will not be able to see the latest updates from your friends or the authors you follow, nor will you receive messages from your friends."
Xiaomi can't even implement app uninstallation properly in their software smh

BREAKING: Sony became the world's first major OEM to ship smartphones without USB-C cables
The latest Sony Xperia 10 VII does not even come with a USB-C cable, nor does it come with a bundled charger. It only comes with manuals and a phone inside the box.
This also makes Sony the world's first major OEM to ditch bundling USB-C cable with a smartphone, even beating Apple. However, Apple is not far behind tho as the latest Airpods 3 Pro and Airpods 4 also don't feature USB-C charging cable, so expect Apple to follow soon for iPhones as they first ditched charger with the iPhone 12 in 2020.
The reason to remove USB-C remains the same as that for chargers, i.e. its "better for the environment".
