The Age of Realtime Deepfake Fraud Is Here Fraudsters are able to change their race, facial hair, voice, and more during live video calls with very little effort. Scammers are already fooling the elderly and verification systems.

New from 404 Media: the age of realtime deepfake fraud is here. Scammers in Nigeria are using realtime deepfakes to change their race, facial hair, gender, more to appear as someone else on video calls. Results very realistic now. Also tricking verification systems www.404media.co/the-age-of-r...

#OtD 28 Apr 1945 Italy's fascist dictator, Benito Mussolini, was executed by anti-fascist partisans. His body was then hung up in Milan's Piazzale Loreto, a square in which 15 partisans had been killed and left publicly to rot the previous year workingclasshistory.com/podcast/e77-...

Israel broke the ceasefire. It shouldn't be so hard for the world to condemn this
Israel broke the ceasefire. It shouldn't be so hard for the world to condemn this YouTube video by Rachel Gilmore

Renad, an 11-year-old girl from Gaza, posted a message on her Instagram story yesterday. It read: "I'm scared."

She was living through Israel breaking the ceasefire and killing hundreds of Palestinians, including children.

This is wrong. Why is that so hard for our media and politicians to say?

The rise of facism really took root when most people decided to stop masking and normalized catching COVID.

COVID conscious folks have only been saying this for oh I dunno……4 years? First they come for the sick.

It’s never too late to start again.

Hey it’s long covid awareness day! I’ve had long covid since one mild infection in 2022, and here’s what to be aware of:

It sucks, and there is no cure.

I’ve been on bed rest for a week and had to take time off work because I’m in a crash. Under no circumstances should you keep trying to get this.

Indeed, a White House official told The Free Press that the basis for targeting Khalil is being used as a blueprint for investigations against other students.

Khalil is a "threat to the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States," said the official, noting that this calculation was the driving force behind the arrest. "The allegation here is not that he was breaking the law," said the official.

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more.

The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law.

No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

ICE is snatching up people and abducting them. In the middle of the night and in broad daylight.
Students, mothers, children, People of the Global Majority, citizens, anyone they want. Anyone they don't want.

Today marks the 83rd anniversary of the passing of comrade Lucy Parsons, a revolutionary anarchist who died as she lived: a spark in the heart of Empire.

Let’s really try not to become fucking nationalists and remember that our country’s history is nothing to be proud of. We committed a genocide. We are settlers. Nationalism is a slippery slope.

If we could get more people to wear masks more often, we would help reduce the burden on the healthcare system. This would make it harder for conservatives to claim public healthcare is failing. That would make it harder to promote privatized healthcare.

Please wear a mask more often.

I'm in the west end suburbs and we have many areas that haven't been cleared yet either. I think the city based this years snow removal budget on last years snowfall? Which is just not how weather works...?

NEW: The ultra-rich are flocking to Miami, and developers are cashing in.

There are now more skyscrapers in Miami than every West Coast state combined.

But the construction workers who build Miami are dying at an alarming rate.

Commission your friends for art. Give them dollars (this makes them happy) in exchange for drawing you like (this makes you happy). This is symbiosis. This is a healthy ecosystem.

Support your friends. Support art. Support your friends' art.

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag β€” traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat β€” thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Hey! You shouldn’t rely on voting for change! Don’t just vote! Pick an issue you’re passionate about and organize your community or seek out others that already have! We’re not going to survive the rise of fascism if our only mode of resistance is through the ballot box!

Infosec 101 for Activists Website: https://infosecforactivists.org/ Introduction America has a strong tradition of activism, dating back to slave revolts and indigenous uprisings even before the founding of the United States. ...

If you are taking inspiration from movements *please study them.* 20th Century Civil rights organizers were very hard core about security. You should be too.

Here's some very basic guidance -- I don't know who made this site, but it checks out --

Say It with Barricades β€œPeace and love”—together, these words have become a mantra invoked to impose passivity on those who would stand up for themselves. But does love always mean peace?

To choose love is to choose to keep feeling the blows when others are under attackβ€”everyone threatened with violence or deportation, all the rivers and animals and plants that sustain us despite the violence inflicted upon them.

Love is not reducible to peace. If you mean itβ€”say it with barricades.

A Valentine's Day card reading "Say it with barricades"

A Valentine's Day card reading "Say it with barricades"

Love is a quality of attention, a sensitivity to the world and everything that is possible in it.

When we fight on the basis of what we love, rather than in service of ideology or cowardice, we open ourselves to serve as a channel through which everything beautiful in the world can defend itself.

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.
