Can immigration deny you entry if you refuse to hand over your phone? What can officials look at or download, and how can you protect your devices?

This sounds like you're visiting Russia or North Korea

It is a tool that produces results and has good/useful uses. It should improve our lives, not make us dumber, lazier and be the sole source of knowledge/"creation"
If the trend we see currently on social media, search engines, writing... Is our future, then it is very bleak.

Are people forgetting the very core of what makes our #humanity ? #humans #facism #ai #aiart #populism #aitools #criticalthinking #creativity #aitools #aieverywhere

Continued thread

#JonathanCook | The new fascism: Israel is the template for Trump and Europe’s war on freedom

"This should come as no surprise, because the main repository for the West’s fascist ideas since the Second World War has been hiding in plain sight: Israel."

"When the West was reluctantly forced into decolonisation processes in Africa and Asia, Israel was given licence and endless support to grow a violent ethno-nationalist project on another people’s homeland.

Even the Guardian is providing (deeply flawed, I am assuming either the word count or the ‘writers' attention span was exceeded) advice on travelling to the US.

My advice (non technical, that is beyond 500 words if you have to know), is DON’T VISIT THE US. It might be painful - instead gang up with the family to help friends and family visit you. It makes sense.

The FCC is questioning YouTube TV's decision not to carry two faith-based channels.

New FCC Chairman Brendan Carr — who wrote a chapter of Project 2025 —suggests discrimination may be the cause.

And he's proposed regulation to give the FCC control over what channels are carried by YouTube TV and other live TV streaming services.
