No Harsher CFAA! Support Aaron‘s Law Instead

The whole Internet is clamoring for reform of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act because it stifles innovation and even imprisons activists and innovators like Aaron Swartz. (And could easily have been used against Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, and countless others.)

So what are some Republicans in the House thinking about doing? Expanding it, and instituting even harsher penalties.

Tell Google: Stop Helping Our Government Censor The Internet!

To date, Google has chosen to comply with 65 percent of the our government‘s 6,000 takedown requests, and over 90 percent of their requests for user information, often „pressured“ by little more than a polite request by the official in question!

If Google really wants to fight government censorship, then it needs to stop talking and start taking action. Please, sign our petition urging CEO Larry Page and Chairman Eric Schmidt to stop helping these „democracies“ spy on us. Don‘t let America become Google‘s new China: Tell Page and Schmidt to fight this censorship NOW!

“Du bist Merkel. Du bist Deutschland. Du bist ein sadistischer Kolonialherr? Lass Dir das nicht gefallen, Du!”

Das Kartell der Monopole und seine Spieltheorie-Wiese “Euro”-Kapitalismus versucht den international wachsenden Unmut über sein wichtigstes Instrument, die Regierung von Deutschland, hinter dem Staatsvolk der Deutschen zu verstecken. Dieses war zwar in den letzten Jahren vier Mal in Folge das beliebteste Volk der Welt, ist aber in seiner berühmten “breiten Mehrheit” mittlerweile so exorbitant verblödet, dass die surreale Verwechslung von 82 Millionen Menschen mit ihren ferngesteuerten Partei-Kadern noch gelingen mag – wenn auch die Breite der Breiten bereits parallel zur Unterwerfungsbereitschaft der “Euro”-(Kapitalismus-)Gläubigen zu schrumpfen beginnt.

Eine Kommission ohne Macht

Seit über einem Jahr verhandeln Bund und Länder über ein „Endlagersuchgesetz“. Zum großen Teil geschah dies völlig intransparent in kleinster Runde zwischen den (Ex-)Bundesumweltministern Norbert Röttgen und danach Peter Altmaier (beide CDU) auf der einen Seite und Jürgen Trittin (Grüne) und Sigmar Gabriel (SPD) auf der anderen Seite

Canada’s Totalitarian Shift

Naomi Wolf’s The End Of America, Letter Of Warning To A Young Patriot might just as well be named The End of Canada, since the Government of Canada, now re-branded the “Harper Government”, is following many of the steps that governments follow (in varying degrees) to transition away from democracy and into the murky world of totalitarianism.

Ecuador asks UK to back non-extradition deal for Assange

A Labour source was eager to distance the party from the issue, saying: “The meeting was on the basis of a discussion about other issues and was one part of a series of regular contact meetings with foreign governments in London.

Hetze gegen Menschen aus Rumänien und Bulgarien

In der „jungen Welt“ vom 28. Februar sagte der Sprecher des Duisburger Netzwerkes gegen Rechts, Henning von Stoltzenberg: „Es gibt einzelne Initiativen, die sich sehr engagiert in mehreren Stadtteilen um Gegenöffentlichkeit und konkrete Hilfestellungen wie Kleidersammlungen, Sprachkurse oder verschiedene Beratungen bemühen. Auch Antifa-Gruppen oder die Linkspartei nehmen sich des Themas an und weisen auf die eigentlichen Ursachen von prekären Verhältnissen hin (…). Insgesamt muss hier aber noch viel mehr passieren.“

Stuttgart 21: Was ist Wahrheit? Polizei verstrickt sich in Widersprüche

Was ist Wahrheit?
…diese berühmte Frage des Pilatus stellte sich für die Anwesenden im Saal des Landgerichts am Mittwoch Morgen, 27.3., beim Berufungsverfahren gleich mehrfach, während sie den Hauptkommissar und – damals, am 8.2.2011, Zugführer der BFE sowie seine damalige Untergebene anhören mussten.

„Es zeigte sich wieder einmal, wie wichtig eine freie, unabhängige Dokumentation bei Demonstrationen und Versammlungen ist – darum hier ein großer Dank an camS21! Ohne dessen Video wäre es höchstwahrscheinlich zu einer erneuten Verurteilung A.’s gekommen. “

Marktkapitalisierung: Bitcoin knackt Milliarden-Grenze

Denn immerhin ist Bitcoin eine Währung, die unabhängig von Zentralbanken und staatlichem Zugriff von jedem Nutzer mit speziellen Client-Programmen erzeugt werden kann. Zudem ist die Geldmenge von vornherein auf 21 Millionen Bitcoin begrenzt, weshalb das Krypto-Geld mitunter als Schutz vor Inflation und Fluchtwährung gesehen wird, bisweilen sogar als das digitale Gold.

US-Saudi Funded Terrorists Sowing Chaos in Pakistan

Quetta, the capital of Pakistan‘s southwest Baluchistan province, bordering both US-occupied Afghanistan as well as Iran, was the site of a grisly market bombing that has killed over 80 people. According to reports, the terrorist group Lashkar-e-Jhangvi has claimed responsibility for the attack. Billed as a „Sunni extremist group,“ it instead fits the pattern of global terrorism sponsored by the US, Israel, and their Arab partners Saudi Arabia and Qatar

WARNING: „Final“ Psy-Op Vs. Syria Begins

A window is closing, and the West is resorting to dangerous desperation. Syria and its allies, as well as concerned interests around the world, must be more vigilant and resilient than ever. The tell-tale signs of a psychological operation are there – but for a psychological operation to succeed, a nation‘s people must not be prepared or aware that it is coming. By raising awareness of this most recent, insidious attempt at snatching a psychological victory from the jaws of a tactical defeat, we can help quicken the day when the West‘s war machine finally stumbles and falls, giving the people of Syria their lives back.

Woman heads CIA spy unit for first time

Another glass ceiling has been cracked at least temporarily with a woman now running the CIA‘s spy division.

The long time CIA veteran leading the National Clandestine Service on an acting basis cannot be publicly named because she is still a covert officer.

Russia Calls On U.S., North Korea To Step Back From The Brink

Russia is urging the U.S. and North Korea to end an escalating cycle of dangerous provocations after Pyongyang put its missile forces on high alert and American stealth bombers flew practice bomb runs over the Korean Peninsula.
