The Surveillance Accountability Act Fixes This

US Sanctions Iran-linked Crypto Wallets, Including Addresses Holding $344 Million Frozen by Tether
And this is why you don’t want to use a centralized cryptocurrency other than minor amounts for purchases. Throw in Ethereum and all forms of stablecoins who can and do lock people out of funds. Bitcoin is decentralized and can’t…
Bitcoin’s “Security Budget” Debunked
This is a good overview of the fallacy of Bitcoin‘s “security budget” being a problem. Block rewards won’t go away until about 2140, with the network then going to fees alone. Hashrate and fees will adjust to what is needed…
Property Tax Payments Are Being Stolen From the Mail In California
More than 150 taxpayers have had their property tax checks stolen and then used in check washing schemes, and the network appears to be national. And the scheme seems to track to the Oakland mail processing center, even though this…
UAE Announces Plan to Run Half Its Government on AI
Anything with the UAE is of interest, as the country of the coming Antichrist, and seven heads of the Beast in Revelation, and also home to the Abrahamic Family House. Also, the image of the beast that is given breath…
Turkey to Ban Anonymous VPNs
What’s the point of a VPN if logged and tracked? Though, the making it a crime for you to violate the law is troublesome. I wonder how this will affect Tor usage? You can use bridges that obfuscate traffic to…
Food Company Input Costs Jump 7.9% as Iran War Drives Supply Chain Shock
This isn’t going to be good. I remember several years ago going to Costco, and you got a lot of food to get the bill up to $250. Well today, we’re spending $350 not even getting that much food at…
Buc-ee’s Will No Longer Accept Its Own Gift Cards as Payment for Fuel in Wake of New Pump-Payment Policy
And it’s just another example of gift cards being trash. People waste so much money with gift cards, as many don’t get used, or balances are left… Though, I like Buc-ee’s. When traveling into Colorado we go there for a…
GitHub Opts All CLI Users Into Telemetry Collection Whether They Want It or Not
I’m not sure who would use this over the opensource git package, but if you do, you probably want to turn off Microsoft’s telemetry. Unless you want to help Microsoft train its AI with your activity. Opt-out instructions included…
SDNY vs. The Technological Facts Appendix

Big Tech Group Jumps The Gun On Unreleased Bill, Raising Questions About Cozy Ties With Lawmakers
For one, these politicians and tech megacorps don’t care about children as they’re all for murdering babies in the womb, and mutilating them for gender dysphoria. And I’d bet they would support a measure like in the Netherlands where you…
Crypto Bill Nears Stablecoin Rewards Breakthrough as Talks Hit ‘good Spot,’ but Ethics Concerns Set to Resurface
Banks are the absolute worst, as they’re still fighting you getting rewards for holding stablecoins, while they don’t pay you much interest for your bank account when they lend out 90% of your money making good returns. As stablecoins are…
Iran Fired At Three Ships Near Hormuz, Seized Two
This whole thing has got to be purposeful. Not only are they profiting off the stock market and timing trades to Trump’s social media posts, but this will be worse than the 70’s oil embargo with a greater percentage of…
Armed Men Make Off With $1.8 Million After Robbing Brinks Truck in Philly in Broad Daylight: Police
I worked for Brinks in the late 90’s, and this might point to inside information from an employee at the bank, business, or Brinks itself. Of course, if a check cashing business it is easy to figure out. During my…
Marxist SPLC Indicted on 11-Counts, Including Funding for the KKK, Aryan Nation, and Nazis
Most conscious people knew this was a Demonrat propaganda outfit, but this is kind of hilarious that they got busted creating and sponsoring the groups they claimed to fight against, which points to the whole white racism narrative being so…
