Awide range of anonymous X (Twitter) users have reported that their real names are suddenly being Googled in Israel shortly after they began criticizing the country for its actions in Palestine. Some connected the phenomenon to Au10tix, the software X requires users (even anonymous ones) to use in order to verify their real identities.

Au10tix is an Israeli company founded and staffed by former Israeli spies from the elite Israeli military intelligence group Unit 8200. .

Iran(?) using Lego for their propaganda

Hrvoje Morić: "And just to add to that, we're seeing again the signals being put out there. And I think for us that have real good discernment, we're able to form these patterns and accurately predict, extrapolate, predict the future...What we saw in Mexico was Operation Gladio, you know, a Mexican division. And that, I think, is the shape of things to come.

..And it's wild to see Alex Jones - I keep an eye on him - and the other day his newsletter - and it's it's like so mainstream media - he's got some pretty lady with big boobs in the studio with him and he's like I predicted the Iranian sleeper cells You know, so the sleeper cells are going to be activated in the U.S.

And it's like, guys, really? Come on. That's false flag. And so the guy who, you know, made his mark on being the anti-false flag guy is now literally the tip of the spear, as he used to say, leading the false flag operation. So they've seeded that narrative of Iranian sleeper cells. I would not be surprised if we begin to see these Iranian sleeper cell false flag operations across the United States."

OpenAI's head of robotics resigns, specifically citing that they are building fully autonomous lethal robots and mass-surveillance.

Apparently we are openly crossing that line now: killer AI robots without human judgement/oversight.

...

I rate the probability that this is true and is what it seems is low (being generous).

As I jokingly say, though I’m not joking, if information is given to us from government or mass media figures, if you can’t check something because it’s too small, too far away or two complex, it’s a lie.

Why would they ever tell the truth? A variation will always be more useful to them.

This is fear propaganda. Autonomous robots are going to be noisy for, unless they have a very long mains lead, they’ll need an internal combustion engine to power it.

This isn’t mentioned. Many will imagine robots like in Terminator. Most unlikely, imo.

And anyway, this guy gets a conscience now? Give me a break.

And, having realised what evil things he’s enabling, and wants to speak out, the perpetrators just allowed that?

None of this makes sense.

Best wishes

Effects on the South Korean economy:

The oil refining and petrochemical sectors face the most direct impact. Korea imports 70.7 percent of its crude oil and 20.4 percent of its LNG from the Middle East. “We are trying to secure crude supplies, but if the situation continues we may have to reduce refinery operations,” an industry representative said. “If that happens the impact could spread to other industries.”

Yeochun NCC, which can produce 2.29 million tons of petrochemical products a year, told major customers on Wednesday that deliveries may be delayed because supply problems have disrupted production. As factories needed less raw material, companies kept only one to two months of naphtha — a petroleum-based liquid used to make plastics and other chemicals — in storage.

A prolonged disruption in the Strait of Hormuz could delay shipments of vehicles and auto parts while increasing logistics costs.

The semiconductor industry is also watching shipping costs closely. Helium, a key material used to cool lithography equipment and check wafer leaks in semiconductor production, largely comes from Qatar. About 90 percent of the helium used in Korea is imported from the country.

An 80-year-old nonprofit that advises conscientious objectors says its phone is "ringing off the hook" as American service members who object to the US-and-Israel-initiated war on Iran are seeking guidance on how to avoid being a part of it. Ominously, the group's executive director says the breadth of force mobilization is much like the run-up to the ground invasion of Iraq.

"Phone has been ringing off the hook," wrote Center on Conscience & War executive director Mike Prysner on X. "A LOT more units have just been activated for deployment than the public knows about." Founded in 1940, the Center on Conscience and War provides guidance to military service members pursuing a conscientious objector (CO) status or a discharge. The group also opposes military conscription.
