LIVE NOW: Explaining the Historic Ruling in the Fluoride Lawsuit, What Comes Next, & How You Can Help

Derrick Broze interviews Michael Connett, lead attorney for the Fluoride Action Network and the lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Mr. Connett and his team recently won a legal victory when a federal court ruled that fluoride is a neurotoxin and the EPA must act to prevent further harm to Americans. Broze and Connett also discuss the recently released report from the National Toxicology Program which also concluded fluoride was lowering IQ in children. Finally, Connett shares advice for activists and researchers seeking to end water fluoridation in their communities.

⚡️NEW INTERVIEW: Energy Weapons, Radiation and Alternative Technology
@takebackourtech

Mike from the amazing health & supplement company Alfa Vedic asks: does all wireless technology need to be dangerous to biology?

I briefly discuss how my research into EMR led me to the conclusion that a lot of wireless frequencies are like energy weapons in terms of the harm it does to biology.

I would love to hear from you, what do you think?

⚡️How To Avoid Big Tech Map Apps
@takebackourtech

If Google Maps went down this very moment, would you be able to get directions to the nearest grocery store? Would you be able to get back home if you're on the other side of town?

Probably not, because we have lost our sense of direction.

We're super tied down to these big tech mapping applications, which when you search for food, it gives you bullshit like McDonald's and Walmart, lowest common denominator things.

That’s why I am pleased to announce I'm hosting a webinar called Open Source Navigation!

It's going to take place Thursday, October 24th at 11 a.m. Central time.

If you're interested, please RSVP at: https://abovephone.com/webinar/

We hope to see you there!

New investigation from me:

The screams of babies as buildings collapse in Gaza. Terrified parents carrying the remains of their children away in plastic carrier bags. These scenes – altogether too familiar today – come enabled by German-American tech billionaire Peter Thiel and his company, Palantir, whose software uses AI and big data to help the Israeli military surveil, target and slaughter hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. It is also used by ICE, the FBI and U.S. law enforcement to destroy privacy, to attack whistleblowers, and to turn the Orwellian concept of “pre-crime” (identifying and tracking potential subversives before they commit any offense) into a reality.

The Silicon Valley oligarch has deep ties to the CIA and the military-industrial complex and is one of the Republican Party’s most powerful backers. Already one of the world’s most influential individuals, if Donald Trump wins in November, Thiel has set himself up to become a “shadow president,” wielding gigantic power over us all. This is his story.

Alrighty then Algorithm Ghetto...the biometric version of the Mexican CURP, effectively a type of Digital ID, will apparently become mandatory for everyone next year:

"The establishment of a biometric CURP has been criticized by social organizations such as the Network in Defense of Digital Rights (R3D). According to the argument of that body, this could be a mechanism for the Mexican State to make - massive surveillance and EXCLUSION of access to public services." https://www.radioformula.com.mx/estilo-de-vida/2024/10/18/curp-biometrico-requisitos-para-tramitarlo-ya-que-sera-obligatorio-en-mexico-837548.html

⚡️LEAKED: IRS Attempts to Trace Monero in Chainalysis Training Video, Response from Monero Community
@takebackourtech

We’re living in a comic book. A legendary cat and mouse game is taking place, with the world’s financial privacy at stake.

Tyrannical regulatory bodies are obsessed with ensuring no one can exchange money without their knowledge. They join forces with international law enforcement and corporate technology partners that weaponize surveillance on the blockchain.

Who stands in their way? A bunch of Monero nerds and nodes.

⚡️PART 2 - LEAKED: IRS Attempts to Trace Monero in Chainalysis Training Video, Response from Monero Community
@takebackourtech

The reason I started using cryptocurrency was because I didn't want anyone to be able to track what I spend my money on. Can you relate?

In part 2 of IRS Attempts to Trace Monero I'm asking the hard questions - Is Monero actually private? Is any cryptocurrency genuinely private? I would love to hear from you in the comments below!

⚡️Exciting New Crypto Project: DarkFi
@takebackourtech

Had an amazing chat with Rose O' Leary from an exciting new project: DarkFi. I talked about how inspiring it is to build technology that brings people together rather than creating more division, especially here in the US.

DarkFi is a base layer for anonymous applications and smart contracts that aims to be multi-chain interoperable.

Curious to hear what ya'll think of the project, let me know in the comments!

⚡️Response from the Monero community
@takebackourtech

I had the privilege of asking the Monero community our questions from my article: LEAKED: IRS Attempts to Trace Monero in Leaked Training Video, Response from Monero

Received a response from Rucknium - an anonymous statistician of Monero Research Lab who’s conducted some of the first professional statistical analyses of the Monero blockchain and contributed work through Monero’s CCS (community crowdfunding system), including current work on improving Monero’s Decoy Selection algorithm.

⚡️Japanese Authorities Trace Cybercriminals Using Monero, But How?
@takebackourtech

Another interesting development in the 'tracing' of private cryptocurrencies.

Japanese National Police announced the arrests of a 18 person cyber-criminal ring.

Interestingly they have their own word for these types of groups "Tokuryu" or "anonymous and fluid criminal groups".

Between June 2009 and January 2010, Kobayashi's group is suspected of repeatedly making approximately 900 fraudulent transactions by misusing a credit card in another person's name. It is highly likely that the abused credit card information was stolen through "phishing" via fake websites and fake e-mails.

As covered in our previous investigation into the tracing capabilities of Monero investigators, we can speculate the following:

- This is a historical investigation dating back all the way to 2009.

- The transactions in question occurred before 2020, meaning that there was no IP address anonymization (which occurred with the 2020 Dandelion++ update)

- There is mention of social networking sites and confidential communication apps, meaning that there was additional evidence gathered through these avenues.

- If the suspect (Yuta Kobayashi) neglected to protect their IP address (no VPN, or Tor) in these old transactions there would be a direct link to him.

- If the Japanese police got a dump of Monero transaction information from an exchange this group used, this would be a valuable 'consolidation transaction' which could then be used to analyze co-spends and make predictions as to where the Monero was going.

I speculate that the Japanese police borrowed heavily from external sources and had a source of Monero transaction information (such as from an exchange) in order to faciliate this tracing.

Learn how this type of tracing works and what you can do to protect yourself:

⚡️Is Privacy Possible With Crypto?
@takebackourtech

In part 2 of my interview with Rose O’ Leary from DarkFi, I asked about the involvement of the FBI and the IRS in tracing and tracking transactions. I was wondering how DarkFi could potentially safeguard visibility into the blockchain.

What did you think of the answer Rose gave about Monero's ring signature? Do you have any alternative options to propose in this space?

⚡️How To Contribute Code Anonymously
@takebackourtech

I spoke with Rose O' Leary from DarkFi about the problem of centralization in app development and pointed to the recent Telegram saga with Pavel Durov. Rose talked about an alternative to GitHub, where you can contribute code to any project anonymously.

Although Rose was also quick to point out that she can’t necessarily protect herself once her image is online and on social media.

What do you think about privacy in the age of social media? How careful do you have to be to maintain anonymity online?

⚡️Spiritual Successor to Samourai Wallet, Ashigaru Wallet Launched
@takebackourtech

https://ashigaru.rs/about/

Users of Samourai wallet may reminisce about its standout privacy features including CoinJoins, PayNyms, and the like. After having their infrastructure seized by the DOJ, Samourai users were left without an option and had to migrate to other wallets.

Now, a new project has risen up out of the ashes, keeping many of the same features and honoring the Samourai legacy.

The Ashigaru Open Source Project was established in the months after the United States Department of Justice brought charges against the founders of the self custodial Bitcoin application, Samourai Wallet. At the time of arrest, multiple servers that hosted documentation, code repositories and message coordination services were either seized or failed to remain online, presumably due to being no longer administered. With the indicted individuals placed under restrictive conditions on bail, it became clear that all software development had ceased.

Aims and Goals
We believe anyone should be able to engage in peaceful, voluntary and private commerce on the internet without tracking, surveillance or censorship. The Ashigaru Open Source Project develops, releases and maintains free and open source software that makes extensive use of both published code from active projects as well as those archived in the public domain.

Open, unrestricted communication networks are utilized to ensure continued availability. The software released by the project will always have a low barrier to entry, be non discriminatory, never expose users to counterparty risk and provide as much protection as possible for those transacting on a public blockchain.


What’s in a name?
As former users of Samourai Wallet, yet having no association or relationship with the core team, “Ashigaru” was chosen to represent individuals of humble origin whom, borne out of necessity, would equip themselves with their own tools and rise to the occasion during a period of great change.

⛔️ TikTok to be BANNED in the USA?

In less than one month, The US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit is expected to issue its decision on a lawsuit challenging the TikTok divestiture law signed by President Biden in April this year.

The law requires TikTok’s parent company, Bytedance, to sell the platform or face a nationwide ban. In response, TikTok and Bytedance sued the US government over what they call an “unconstitutional law,” that would silence the voices of 170 million Americans.

For the past two years, US politicians have made other attempts to shutdown the platform due to “national security concerns.” However, I explain the real reasons why the US establishment may want to ban the popular video-sharing app.
