The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant. - Maximilien Robespierre.

The Death Of Privacy - But Have We Ourselves Murdered It?

The News this week has thrown up some interesting questions. While the main headlines have concerned immigration,  the economy, climate change, Trump, Labour MP plotting against their leader, the meltdown at the BBC, and the failure of policing there have been many second layer stories about privacy, or the lack of it in the digital era. UK citizens health records released on the dark web, Prince Harry and not-Princess Meghan's latest whine, the publication of the Jeffrey Epstein files across the pond, and the usual plethora of reports about surveillance, data mining by Big Tech corporations and abuse of users rights on the world wide web.

It seems there is now little distinction between the public and private world. We have allowed a diluted concept of privacy in which those in authority decide what civil rights and liberties rights we have rather than our right to privacy being the default position. This new privacy lite serves not as protection from authority and public scrutiny, and as a sanctuary for the inner self and a shelter for intimacy — but merely as data protection.

Through it all, we blame the convenient scapegoat of the moment: the internet. But this gets the timeline wrong. By the time social media arrived, we were already living in a post-private world. The digital revolution simply gave us more efficient tools to do what we were already doing: performing our identities, seeking validation through revelation, and treating intimacy as a public commodity. Nobody forced us to hand our data to Microsoft, Meta or Google, were nudged into it. But nudging (propaganda) and manipulation of information by Artificial Intelligence are the tools of authoritarianism.
 

This matters, because if we fail to understand the problem, we’ll never find the cure. All the digital detoxing and platform regulation in the world will never restore what was lost long before the internet became a publicly accessible medium. Far better, then, to face up to how we voluntarily dismantled the idea that some things should remain hidden, that mystery and restraint might be virtues, and that not everything must be shared.
 

The business models of technology giants like Google and Facebook, which base their revenue streams on the sale of data which they collect without consent (i.e. steal,) clearly violate people’s privacy, as does total surveillance by state or business agents. But we would be kidding ourselves if we thought that technology alone has undermined the moral status of privacy and private life. The wecams through which internet 'influencers' invite us into their world and wannabes seek the unhealthy attentions of obessives are the logical endpoint of a cultural revolution that began decades earlier. 

Not everybody will share the scepticism of the Boggart Bloggers about “mass media” communications, broadcast news and the majority of news comment and opinion – as good for nothing beyond cheap entertainment that panders to the lowest common denominator while performative legislation by political groups, for example the UK Online Safety Bill, will suppress free speech (the purpose for which it was really intenden,) while doing nothing to make the www safer for users.

Many of us had already given up on the BBC before the extent of its far left and globalist bias was revealed and major print news publications such as the Daily Telegraph and the Guardian as amusement-fodder as much as anything. Although they do offer occasional insights into the passions driving our fellow humans.


As founder and editor of the Boggrt Blog titles and a retired computer professional whose experience goes back to  the days of punched cards and huge piles of printed output I, like many of my contemporaries marvel at how the potential of communications technology to destroy our privacy developed over the past fifty years has been abused, and the misuses it has been put to by the billionaire psychopaths of Silicon Valley, the scams, the junk phone calls (which would not be possible had the digitised telephone system not been integrated with the internet,) the data mining, propaganda and politically motivated lies.

It is hard to dis agree with the statement that 99.9% of ‘internet-based communications’ is waffle, clickbait, advertising, porn or propaganda. But over the years, we  learn how to filter most of that out and extract the gems that lie buried in the shite.

As in life we must all, if we want to save the useful internet, take responsibility ourselves instead of leaving the task of cleaning up to others.

The Decline And Fall Of The BBC Empire part1

 

On Sunday 9 November  news broke that Tim Davie had stepped down as BBC Director-General over the misleading editing of a Trump speech, with news chief Deborah Turness also surrendering her lanyard. The Mail had the full story accessible without a paywall

 The fall of the BBC had been a long time coming, the decline was apparent by the mid 1990s when it became noticable that interviewees from left leaning organisations or campaign groups for leftist 'sacred cow' clauses were lobbed softball questions and allowed to rant about their personal prejudices while those with more conservative views were constantly interrupted or talked over by interviewers and shouted down by audiences packed with left wing activists.

The BBC appears to have decided at about that time history (particularly anything linked to empire or slavery) and truth are matters of opinion and feeling, rather than empirical facts. It doesn’t matter that slavery has been practised by every culture since the dawn of time; BBC historical output suggests the British Empire is responsible for all of it. No other empires existed and no British white person ever did anything good. In a similar vein, the BBC has never done anything wrong and their current predicament is down to a right wing plot. It is highly reminiscent of Royal nutcase Meghan Markle talking about ‘my truth’, ignoring anything as inconvenient as the actual truth.

For over 25 years people have been complaining about the BBC's evident bias as an institution and yet those of us collectively referred to as alt_media have spent all those years watching and reporting on  The BBC's slide into very conscious bias in favour of a globalist agenda,  no less so than the comment made by The BBC that they no longer have to provide balance when writing articles programming about their official "climate change" position. 

Time after time people have tried to highlight how The BBC website demonstrates 100% bias when moderating "Have Your Say" comments (on the subject THEY select which are often very selective too) - how they ban people from making comments without telling them. It has been proved, dozens of times, that BBC moderators allow highly contentious comments often using very abusive language, to be published. 

The topics on which free expresion of opinion was suppressed included criticism of or opposition to establishment naratives on mass immigration, net zero, gay and trans issues, anything related to Islam but particularly grooming gangs, climate change, vaccines, asylum seekers, and race relations policy.   

Conversly anything anti Tory, anti Reform, anti Trump and others of similar ilk, anti Brexit, anti Russia, anti Semitic, anti Christian or anti British could be completely anti - factual and even slanderous or libellous. 

The BBC has no defence against accusations of bias because they censored some posts but allowed others which used used the same insulting language or misrepresentation of facts. Such corporate behaviour over several decades is one of the reasons people are abandoning mainstream news.

The 19-page dossier compiled by Michael Prescott, and now in the public domain due to the Daily Telegraph being brave enough to take on the behemoth that our state broadcaster had become leaves no room for doubt. Veteran journalist Prescott was appointed as independent adviser to the BBC’s Editorial Guidance and Standards committee (ESGC) three years ago following publication of the Dyson report into the BBC deception connected with the notorious and now discredited Martin Bashir interview of Prince Diana.

Prescott’s detective work into Panorama’s doctored edit of Trump’s speech found that this was not merely human error or an error of judgment but a conscious falsification with now published emails revealing beyond doubt there was intent to discredit Trump and prop up false allegations made against the once and future President. Prescott reported this to the ESGC but they did nothing.

He was so frustrated that he then compiled the 19-page dossier which chronicled a newsroom culture where bias is hard-baked into the fabric of the newsroom, dissent is punished, and truth is doctored at the whim of the Corporation. His findings included that BBC Verify – supposedly founded by Davie and Turness as a bulwark against ‘fake’ news’ – produced fake ‘race bias’; BBC Arabic parroted Hamas propaganda, and gender-critical reporters were censored by Stonewall-aligned editors.

And where have successive governments been while the state broadcaster has transformed itself into the propaganda arm of the wannabe world government? Looking away. Every administration since Blair has promised reform and delivered none. They have merely tinkered ineffectually with elements of the BBC Charter.

Chaos Erupts In Brussels As Rubber Bullets Fired At Farmers Protesting Outside EU Parliament
Belgian police used Rubber bullets and water cannons against hundreds of farmers who had travelled from around western Europe to protest outside the EU Headquarters in the city on Thursday. The farmers threw eggs, set off fireworks, and set fire to staw bales and rubbish fires near the building while demanding that European leaders stop punishing them with more taxes, rising costs and the loonytoons 'green' policies imposed to push the continent towards the ruling bureaucrats impossible and irrational 'net zero' targets

The Never-Ending War On Cash
In the last few decades the global elites have been pushing to shift financial activity from cash and paper cheques towards a cashless world.

Destroying The Planet To Save It
In the stampede towards achieving 'Net Zero' perhaps a reality check is long overdue for the delusional Green Blob and the virtue signalling politicians. In order to save the planet from a largely imaginary threat based on an ideology behind which there is very little scientific and absolutely zero empirical evidence the solutions proposed by the Green Blob, apart from being so expensive they would destroy every functioning national economy on the planet, are going to be more damaging to the planet than continuing to burn coal and gas ...

Will Germany be the first to ditch its net zero commitments?
Things are not going well in Germany’s bid to reach net zero by 2045, five years earlier even than Britain’s own unrealistic target.

UK Government's Orwellian plan for using Artificial Intelligence to make you watch propaganda on You Tube if you shun The BBC

 

 

This piece of news sounds so very Orwellian people reading his novels '1984' or Animal Farm might think he is a contemporary writer despite his having died over 70 years ago. The idea that if you avoid watching government propaganda via the BBC, for example, you will face social sanction. In this era of Artificial Intelligence they’re going to find other ways of force-feeding you that same propaganda via You Tube? The idea could only have come from the Big Brother regime's The Ministry Of Truth.

With public trust in government and the institutions of state at an all time low, only socialists could be so stupid. 

 

from front page magazine 

”OFCOM, the UK’s Orwellian name for the Office of Communications, has decided to issue a report demanding that YouTube prioritize its propaganda content because of ‘democracy’ and ‘public service’ or something of that sort.
Even for the Starmer regime, which is racking up more speech arrest than Cuba, this is really something.
The regime believes that its programming is entitled to first row prioritization and that if people don’t choose to watch it, that’s because YouTube isn’t trying hard enough to make them.

This review calls for urgent action, both now and in the coming years to strengthen and maintain public service media (“PSM”) content which provides trusted and accurate news, tells UK stories and represents the diversity of the nations and regions of the UK.

The vital reforms in the Media Act, once implemented, will help support PSBs, including by making

their on-demand players prominent on connected TVs.

“Viewers now spend less than half of their in-home viewing on linear TV and this is declining. As people move online they are watching programmes on a much larger range of services… The PSBs are responding by putting content on third party services, such as YouTube. Their strategies are evolving as they learn what works, but our research shows that PSB content only forms a small proportion of what UK audiences watch on YouTube and they are competing with every other content creator in the world.”

“It is critical that the PSBs and YouTube work together to ensure that PSB content is prominent on its service, and on fair commercial terms. This is important for PSM to continue to connect with all audiences, particularly for news, which supports democracy, and for UK children’s programming which helps young audiences learn and grow”

George Orwell called it over 75 years ago. These people know one trick and one trick only. Force everyone to watch it. If viewers still don’t click on their propaganda even when YouTube pushes it front and center, they’ll pass legislation ordering that viewers in the UK have to watch a BBC video before watching any other video.”

Ukraine confirms loss of first F-16

 We told you they would not be the deal maker in this war:

via BBC News, 29 August 2024

One of the F-16 fighter jets sent from Nato allies to Ukraine has been destroyed, a Ukrainian military source has told the BBC.

The aircraft went down amid a barrage of Russian missiles on Monday, killing pilot Oleksiy Mes, Ukraine's military said. It marks the first loss of its kind since the planes were delivered earlier this month.

The cause of the crash was not a direct result of an enemy missile strike, the Ukrainian military claims.

It said the pilot destroyed three cruise missiles and one drone in Russia's largest aerial attack to date.

 Oleksiy saved Ukrainians from deadly Russian missiles," the Ukrainian Air Force wrote in a statement on social media.

"Unfortunately, at the cost of his own life."

The statement did not specify the type plane involved, but a military source told the BBC the pilot was flying an F-16.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky officially confirmed on Tuesday the US-made F-16's were being deployed to shoot down Russian drones and missiles.

This week, he asked allies to allow Ukraine to use long range missiles to hit targets further into Russia.

Around 65 F-16s have been pledged by Nato countries since US President Joe Biden first authorised willing European allies to send them to Ukraine in August 2023. .... Read all >>>

Update (5:15pm ET) via Zero Hedge: It appears that the US-made F-16 fighter jet, which was handed over to Ukraine earlier this year, was downed by a Ukrainian Patriot air defense system in a friendly fire incident, Ukrainian lawmaker Maryana Bezuglaya said cited by TASS. "According to my information, the F-16 of the Ukrainian pilot Alexey ‘Moonfish’ Mes was shot down by the Patriot anti-aircraft missile system due to a lack of coordination between the [military] units," she wrote on Telegram. The lawmaker criticized the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces for falsely describing the incident as "a crash."

Are US Supplied Long Range Missiles Really Winning The War For Ukraine?
Since very soon after the start of the war between Russia and Ukraine western powers, USA, UK, EU and NATO have been doing everything possible to prolong and escalate the war. The latest move is to provide the Ukrainian military with long range HIMARS missile. Mainstream media are claiming this has tilted the balance in Ukraine's favour. But for what? To prolong the slaughter? ...

Jingoistic Western Triumphalism Will Not End The War In Ukraine Or Cripple Putin, But It Is Crippling Western Nations

As the war in Ukraine grinds on and Russia steps up its economic war against the west and in particular The European Union, claims made recently by the idiotically 'woke' leaders of Europe's main economic and military powers that the West has a once-in-a–generation chance to severely weaken Russia’s capabilities, both militarily and geopolitically, look increasingly hollow. Putin's critics have cited 'Western unity' as one of the main reasons why Russia will be economically destroyed and politically humiliated when the Ukraine's military finally claim victory.

People Are Abandoning Mainstream News - Here's Why

 

BBC News today published in its Culture section, an article about the dramatic decrease in the number of people using its channels, those of rival broadcasters, and the print and online editions of traditional nrewspapers as their preferred way of accessing the news. The article presents the findings of resulting from a huge survey which collected the views of 97,943 people.

More and more people are turning away from news, described news content as depressing, repetitive and boring, the study suggests. Almost four in 10 (39%) people in the study, which covered several national communities said they often actively avoid the news, compared with 29% in 2017, according to the report by Oxford University’s Reuters Institute.

Wars in Ukraine and the Middle East may have contributed to people’s desire to switch off the news, the report’s authors said. This is despite there being strong reasons for expecting concerns about the wars esclating to global conflict might case people to be more rather than less interested, in the news:

Publication of the study's findings comes at a time when billions of people around the world have been going to the polls in national and regional elections, another reason why at this time, pepple might have more cause to follow news coverage..

The report found that elections have increased interest in the news in a few countries, including the United States. However, the overall trend remains firmly downwards, according to the study.

In the U.K., interest in news has almost halved since 2015. “The news agenda has obviously been particularly difficult in recent years,” the report’s lead author Nic Newman told BBC News. Other sources report that many people questions feel there is a political bias towards the globalist left in BBC and other mainstream news coverage.

This development will come as no surprise to those of us who have created a hobby or retirement career for ourselves as reoprters and commentators in the alt_nres community and no only because we all regularly (too regularly unfortunately,) report on misinformation, disinformation, downright lies, propaganda, biased reporting and othr bollocks pumped out by government and corporate press officers and faithfully parrotted by mainstream news outlets.

 People now demonstrably have trust issues with various things; politicians ( as evidenced by the polls and what’s happening across Europe and the U.S ), Big Pharma ( it’s often reported there’s been a downturn in people rocking up for childhood vaccinations and the Covid booster uptake has been in decline for some time ), and a distrust of all types of authority is naturally going to follow, because who has been the biggest, most influential mouthpiece when it comes to spreading government/globalist propaganda and lies? The media. 

 There’s a definite lag effect when it comes to the reporting but this just confirms what is happening in real life, and we should not expect any othe.r outcome

 

.
 

Much like if you find out your other half has been having an affair with your best friend, would you really continue to vote for a party that continues to let you down, election after election, never keeps their promises and lies to your face? What intelligent person is going to just stay in such a toxic relationship like a right mug and not break free from the whole dysfunctional cycle? Any right-minded person would ditch their partner ( and their bestie ) just like they’d go vote for some totally different party/person for the first time in their lives. People don’t /have to stay put and continue to be shat on from a high height like they’ve no control over the matter. So why anyone would even bother with MSM nowadays is beyond me. It’s just insane, but I think we know by now the correlation between MSM muppets and the following of the various government agendas. The cultists need to step away from the Kool-Aid and detox their minds.


They should do a survey at the next ‘protest’ or when the ‘Just Sod Off’ idiots are next glued to the road and ask them if they’ve got a BBC license or if they read the papers. Surely the results would be entirely predictable.

French Police Say "We're At War With Vermin" As Nationwide Riots Spread Like Wildfire

 by Egbert Nobakkon, 1 July 2023

Social unrest continued to spread in the cities and large towns of France cities for a fourth consecutive night last night, with hundreds of buildings and vehicles set ablaze. President Emmanuel Macron's government struggled to contain the violence, which was sparked on Tuesday after a teenager was shot dead by a police officer. 

Police fire tear gas at rioters in Marsailles today (Picture: Screen grab from BBC News)

Siobhan Robbins, reporting for UK's Sky news said "If I was to put money on it I would say that we're going to see another night of violence tonight," while covering a story of a on a gun store that was looted.

Videos posted on social media have shown residents of the city of Marseille bracing for another night of clashes as rioting started early (see to picture). Amateur videos circulating on Snapchat  featured business owners on one of the main shopping streets, Rue Saint-Ferréol,  boarding up their storefronts with large sheets of wood.

In one video a shop owner was pictured a drill to secure a large sheet of plywood to the front of his shop, while other businesses in the area - including a Dr Martens outlet - were also secured.

 


In an update on Saturday, France's Interior Ministry said 2,500 fires were reported overnight. Rioters set fire to 1,350 vehicles and 235 buildings nationwide. About 1,300 people were arrested, while the government mobilized 45,000 police officers with armored vehicles to quell the violence. 

According to The Telegraph, French police said they were "at war" with "savage hordes of vermin" on Friday night. The country's top police unions threatened revolt unless Macron's government restored law and order. 

"Today the police are in combat because we are at war. Tomorrow we will enter resistance and the government should be aware of this," police unions said.

The most concerning aspect of this latest outbreak of lawlessness and violence in France is that French police unions threaten to protest if the government refuses to clamp down hard on the rioting. France is now in a state of near anarchy with many middle and working class communities still unhappy about Presdent Macron's undemocratic reforms to the pension system which triggered rioting among the white working classes earlier this year. The latest outbreak was triggered by the shooting of a young man from the immigrant community as he tried to drive away from a routine traffic stop. French police said they were "at war" with "savage hordes of vermin," language which is hardly likely to help calm the situation. Right wing commentators in France described the riots as further decay and one step closer to societal collapse. It will be a long summer in Europe. Are these organized rioters attempting a 'color revolution' in France?
