it’s difficult, to live this life, the best one we can under any circumstances. It isn’t easy, and even if it appears as though it is for some, we know it so isn’t. we know the reality of the situation because we are living it too. I am not talking about someone’s wealth and security. Those things have an impact for sure. And one that cannot be ignored. But we are all apes experiencing thought for the first time. And we’re expanding in it all the time, whether as a species or an individual. We are blessed that the universe chose us to be the vessel that it used, partially at least, to observe itself. To ask itself philosophical questions about its existence. We should think that when it gets too hard. Not just how lucky we are, but how important our existence is to the universe experiencing itself as a self-aware being, possible of spiritual and creative growth. What joy it has, for having us here.  Our family existence brings joy to the universe. But that is hard to remember when it kicks us in the stomach.

The 2020 election was marked by severe political divisions, a public health crisis, unease about the voting process, concerns about… Some interesting data here; whilst most Americans surveyed seem to believe they had enough information to make a decision during the recent US election 4 in 5 felt they had been exposed to misinformation. This is no surprise to us it is a sign of a change in awareness to some, if not all, of the problem we are tackling today. All free countries should be looking to tackle the rise of misinformation and foreign interference both technically and through education to the people and through our school systems. https://www.facebook.com/103626624451616/posts/232023038278640/

Two years ago, complaints against real time bidding (RTB) were lodged by Jim Killock of Open Rights Group, Michael Veale of UCL, and Johnny Ryan.

Two years ago, complaints against real time bidding (RTB) were lodged by Jim Killock of Open Rights Group, Michael Veale of UCL, and Johnny Ryan. “WHAT’S THE ISSUE WITH RTB? Every time you visit a website, hundreds if not thousands of hidden trackers are taking note of what we do, read and watch. Your browising history and profile data is then shared all across the globe, and sold in auctions where countless advertisers and middlemen can access our data and bid for their adverts to be shown in the websites we visit. It is worth noticing that this information is collected and traded away without any security in place. Dodgy intermediaries could participate to an auction with no intention to bid or to show you adverts, but only to grab your data and use it for any reason they like — such as to manipulate your political views, check your compliance with coronavirus restrictions, or track protesters of the Black Lives Matter movement. It is little surprising then that RTB must rely on coercion (cookie walls) and deception (dark patterns) to gain your consent. Who would ever say yes to advertising under these terms?” https://www.facebook.com/103626624451616/posts/230296751784602/

You could be forgiven for thinking the government has treated the pandemic as an opportunity to reward its friends, says researcher Sophie Hill The Tories have undoubtedly seen this pandemic as an opportunity. An opportunity to exploit the system and the good will of the people in order to line the pockets of their friends and dismantle parts of the NHS "It’s remarkable that the government has managed to squander so much goodwill so quickly – all while paying huge sums to PR firms to work on their messaging strategy." https://www.facebook.com/103626624451616/posts/217156946431916/
