A police chief in Georgia used Flock's cameras to track his ex-girlfriend and her teen daughter nearly 600 times. “Don’t worry I’m not tracking you or some weird stalker shit," he texted her. After hi...
SummaryAn investigation found at least 50 police officers misusing Flock's network of 120,000 license-plate cameras to stalk ex-partners and track intimate details of their lives, including one Georgia police chief who tracked his ex-girlfriend nearly 600 times before his arrest and suicide. Flock's leadership downplayed the abuse as inevitable human error and an infinitesimally small problem, despite the cameras capturing 20 billion scans monthly and enabling surveillance violations ranging from monitoring abortion access to tracking relationship activities.4 tweets1 min read - Aug 4, 2026

Un poco de geopolítica para principiantes sobre el tema del asalto a la valla de Ceuta, que veo a la gente muy perdida. O peor, mintiendo y esparciendo bulos de forma intencionada. Entender el context...
SummaryMarruecos, una monarquía autoritaria con economía débil, utiliza la inmigración subsahariana y su propia población como herramienta de chantaje geopolítico contra Europa, facilitando deliberadamente saltos de vallas como respuesta a conflictos diplomáticos. El asalto a Ceuta no es casualidad sino una estrategia de desestabilización nacional que debería unir a todos los partidos políticos en su condena, mientras que los migrantes son víctimas usadas como peones en este juego.13 tweets2 min read - Aug 14, 2026

SummaryWikipedia's founder highlights four policy discussions that could significantly impact the encyclopedia's editorial standards: requiring mainstream media sourcing for political endorsements (limiting coverage of local elections), debating CBS News's reliability due to new editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, establishing standards for labeling elections as "shams" on the front page, and the inconsistent enforcement of AI-generated content rules against a long-time administrator.7 tweets1 min read - Aug 15, 2026
Let us talk about kidney failure in Nigeria. A dialysis session costs between ₦50,000 and ₦100,000. You need three a week. That is about ₦600,000 a month. And the money is just buying you time. Nobo...
SummaryKidney failure in Nigeria is often silent and preventable, costing ₦600,000+ monthly for dialysis with no cure. The main causes are uncontrolled high blood pressure (affecting 38% of Nigerians), diabetes, a genetic variant (APOL1) common in West Africans, medication abuse (especially NSAIDs), unregulated herbs, mercury in bleaching creams, and counterfeit drugs—most manageable through regular blood pressure checks, kidney function tests, and avoiding medication abuse.21 tweets2 min read - Aug 17, 2026

SummaryThis thread argues that the USA cannot be destroyed externally but only from within through policies that create dependency on foreign resources, accumulate unsustainable debt through wasteful spending, perpetuate one-sided trade deals, encourage mass immigration, divide citizens along racial and ethnic lines, suppress free expression, and weaken family structures in favor of state control. The author presents this as a warning about strategic vulnerabilities rather than a prescription.15 tweets2 min read - Aug 17, 2026
Roger Froikin @rlefraim wrote, "Understanding the Lies from Some Florida City Leaders About the Property Tax Cut. 1)
SummaryFlorida city leaders are falsely claiming that a property tax cut will force service cancellations, but the argument is misleading since property valuations have doubled while service costs increased less than 30%, giving cities a windfall of excess tax revenue. Even with the proposed tax cut, cities would still have more funding than they did before the property valuation surge.7 tweets1 min read
