❗️Global DNA Database Created From Home Testing Kits - BBC Misses The Point
Tests sold by firms like 23andMe and Ancestry - which are supposed to tell people more about their genetic background - have helped create a global DNA database “without us really noticing,” according to upcoming BBC podcast series The Gift.
The podcast series, launched next week, will shine a positive light on the kits, featuring people whose lives have been positively changed by the test analyses, but, since it is the BBC, will of course not consider the implications of a private company having DNA data of millions of people across the world.

Karl Nehammer lamented that buying up Russian LNG is necessary for his country's energy security during an interview with ORF TV.
What would be morally reprehensible, Chancellor, is choosing to let your citizens freeze.

With just one month until Slovakia’s parliamentary elections, the MSM and Western leaders have hit the panic button after learning Robert Fico is ahead in the polls, and could return as the country’s PM.
Western propaganda doesn’t seem to be working amongst the Slovakian public. A recently survey by the Centre for Democracy and Resilience found that 50% of Slovaks view the US as a security risk, and only 40% believe Russia is responsible for the Ukraine conflict.
Keep an eye out for election interference?

TikTok Appoints Cheating British Firm To Allay Privacy Fears
In an attempt to reassure EU lawmakers that the Chinese government can not gain access to Europeans’ user data, the social media giant has teamed up with NCC Group, which will store data in Ireland and Norway.
There’s just one problem…
NCC has a tarnished record, having been rapped on the knuckles for being “vicariously responsible” for helping employees cheat staff examinations, breaching international codes of trust.
It also breached NDAs, in what has been called the worst-kept secret around cheating in the British infosec industry.
As if the data would be safe in Orwellian Ireland or Norway, which is planning to copy the EU's authoritarian surveillance mechanisms, anyway…

🇪🇺 Vaccine Passport Doublespeak: EU Denies Backing Scheme It Claimed Credit For
The EC is not backing the implementation of “international vaccine passports” and is only trying to make digital versions have the same status as paper ones, Eurocrats have insisted.
“The proposed amendment, currently under negotiation, does not aim at creating a new obligation, but simply at providing certainty on the use of digital credentials in the future, alongside their paper version,” said Health and Food Safety Commissioner Stella Kyriakides.
This seems somewhat hypocritical when you consider that Brussels officials bragged that the Pandemic Treaty proposed by the WHO was “first announced by the President of the European Council Charles Michel at the Paris Peace Forum in November 2020,” according to the bloc’s website.

▪️On August 14, the Colombo II vessel of the Customs Surveillance Service was “obstructed” in its duties by 3 vessels belonging to the UK Customs Service and the Royal Navy, triggering a “risky situation.”

Kiev’s parliamentary deputy Mykola Kniazhytski has confirmed lawmakers will boycott international events in Poland in protest against Warsaw’s embargo of Ukrainian grain.
No Ukrainian politicians will attend the Karpacz Economic Forum, dubbed ”central Europe’s Davos” over September 5-7 - a move even the deputy thinks is a “scandal and a mistake,” suggesting he thinks Kiev is unnecessarily escalating tensions.

Catalonia's leader Carles Puigdemont demanded cases against hundreds of activists facing legal action over a failed 2017 separatist bid be dropped - and in exchange he will back acting PM Pedro Sanchez.
Puigdemont said the "complete abandonment of judicial proceedings" against Catalan separatists was needed for his JxCat party help Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to be sworn in for another term after an inconclusive national election in July.

A special unit of the Ukrainian Armed Forces was set up in in 2015 to take out targets in the Donetsk People's Republic and elsewhere, the Economist admitted.
The Ukrainian leadership decided that “imprisoning collaborators was not enough” and so “came to the conclusion that we need to destroy people," former head of the intelligence service, Valentin Nalyvaichenko, told the outlet
The unit continues to play a role in attacks on Russian territory, and is considered responsible for the death of the leader Donetsk People's Republic, Alexander Zakharchenko.

Overcrowded spaces, mould, poor insulation, breaches of safety standards, water leaks, and damp are just conditions millions of people across the continent have to put up with as the mass shift of global wealth continues in the wake of the pandemic.
“Although the average quality of housing has improved steadily overall over the last twenty years, living in substandard, non-functional or overcrowded accommodation remains a reality for a significant proportion of the European population”, the Abbé Pierre Foundation and the European Federation of National Organisations Working with the Homeless (FEANTSA) point out in the report.
But at least we're saving the planet, right?

💥 NEW: Climate Scientist Places Trap For Academic Eco-Mob, Blows Lid On Wildfires
Patrick T. Brown, a top climate scientist at Johns Hopkins University deliberately omitted a key fact about climate change in an article just recently published to make sure that climate luvvie editors ran it - that 80% of wildfires are started by humans.
The world’s academic journals reject papers which “don’t support certain narratives” and focus “intently on climate change as the root cause of wildfires,” he told The Free Press.
His recently authored paper, Climate warming increases extreme daily wildfire growth risk in California', published in Nature last week, deliberately focuses on “how climate change has affected extreme wildfire behaviour” and does not mention other factors, he said.
“I just got published in Nature because I stuck to a narrative I knew the editors would like. That’s not the way science should work,' the article begins.

🇩🇪🤡 Greenpeace And Extinction Rebellion Disrupt Munich Auto Show
Germany's biggest annual motor show was firstly disrupted by Greenpeace activists who called for more sustainable transport alternatives to petrol and diesel cars.
Activists dressed up as German Transport Minister Volker Wissing and representatives of car companies before lighting a 1.5-degree sign - referring to the global target of limiting temperature rises to 1.5 degree Celsius.
"Don't burn our future: mobility transition now," the signs by the anti-globalization group Attac read.
Later, activists from Extinction Rebellion climbed into a large pond outside and released black smoke, symbolizing exhaust fumes from cars.

The satirical magazine is leading calls against the return of the 300-year-old law, which was presented in the Danish parliament following a series of burnings of the Quran, calling it a move influenced by authoritarian regimes and a threat to freedom of expression.
The front cover on Wednesday will feature an appeal to “warn citizens committed to democratic values” alongside seven Norwegian and one Danish outlet.
The Danish Justice Minister has championed the law to “prohibit the inappropriate treatment of objects of significant religious significance to a religious community, such as the Bible, Torah, or Quran.
However, for Charlie Hebdo, the target of an Islamist attack in 2015, it is an “ad hoc” piece of legislation which will “reinstate a mediaeval offence.”
