play store “news” app suggestions

Google Play Store:

NPR and NBC as app suggestions. OhhKay. 🙄

we are the victims, i guess

It’s everywhere! 😱 I need to watch some more movies about nuclear winter. ☃️

Coming home from work on Friday, on car radio NPR was going on about “multiple foreign actors” being involved in Havana Syndrome without saying who those actors were. Those US officials suffered so much from it.

Today I see NC Policy Watch reporting that the fuel pipeline companies want an entire government agency and additional powers to protect against more Russian hacking of the pipeline controls like happened last summer that caused fuel shortages. The Russian hacking was reported as flat fact.

The Mozila/Firefox newsletter and blog had many articles over the past year about how their software keeps you safe from Russian hackers. Yep, that really ups my trust in that organization’s motivations and security. They can keep me safe from phantoms.

Protonmail gave support to opposition groups in Hong Kong last year. Yep, another trust builder for that company. No, it’s the same position as the US government which makes it suspect.

I turn on an FM radio in a rental car today, and NPR was all “Russia, Russia, Russia.”

npr presents the status quo on cuba, what else in new

I let headlines load on my browser’s start page so that Mozilla will get a little revenue. This is a screenshot of one of them. I knew as soon as I saw the lede and the NPR url that the story would be status quo rubbish. It doesn’t take reading anything more than contained in the image to know that.

The article could have been written by the Miami crowd, the White House, and/or any of the “intelligence” agencies.

In the pic, I count all of about 25 “protestors,” not counting the neighborhood people milling about.

Low information disinformation a la NYT, WaPo, and so many others. According to the recent Psaki announcement, maybe NPR should be removed from all social media.
