This is the big LG television surveillance documentary story GN have been working on for a couple of months, and that they previewed a few days ago. The complete pervasiveness of spying upon not just you and what you watch but _every person and every device around every set_ is genuinely staggering. And it gets worse if you use their apps, particularly the LG TV "network": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IFVTcM28KA Having an old set DOES NOT HELP YOU; they've been adding these spying functions in firmware updates. So DO NOT BUY ANYTHING LG. Certainly not anything "smart." #LG #surveillance #spying #evesdropping #CorporateSurveillance #SmartTV #DoNotBuy #television #electronics #HomeElectronics #journalism #news #GamersNexus

https://foreignpolicy.com/2026/07/10/cia-history-communist-albania-cold-war-kim-philby-review/ How NOT to launch a clandestine mission! Kim Philby didn't need to betray ANY of it, it was so badly organised! "Far from the buttoned-up, bureaucratized #spying of the later #ColdWar period, the early post-war #MI6 & #CIA were an almost shambolic bunch. With little oversight, especially on the #US side, these #agencies could concoct whatever schemes & plans they fancied... they were less James Bond, more Monty Python..."

It's now to the point I am going to carry a #UMPC running #linux so I have a trustworthy #PC and connection at my ready when out and about. This is ridiculous that I have to go this extent, nothing can be trusted anymore. Everything is #spying on us. #bigtech just can't stop sticking their epeen into everything in sight. Soon the only way to get any #privacy will be to build your own hardware.

Google is apparently testing a new reCAPTCHA method that prompts you to turn on your device's camera to prove you are human by scanning your hands. I assume this will eventually be mandatory, just like the current reCAPTCHA. https://reclaimthenet.org/googles-new-recaptcha-wants-your-camera-access-and-21-points-of-your-hand #DontBeEvil #Google #Privacy #Spying #Surveillance

Russian government hackers are targeting Signal and WhatsApp users in a “large-scale global” campaign, two Dutch agencies warn. The Netherlands’ Defence Intelligence and Security Service (MIVD) and the General Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD) accused “Russian state actors” of using phishing and social engineering techniques to take over accounts on the messaging apps. @Techcrunch@flipboard.com has more: https://flip.it/KYMZLt #Tech #Spying #WhatsApp #Signal #Technology

The US govt is building a new tool to circumvent filters after gutting a genuine project. "While freedom.gov is ostensibly also an “internet freedom” project, it does not propose to preserve privacy – instead, it appears to funnel users into an opaque, central system controlled by a US government agency.' Linked to ICE. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/feb/19/us-builds-website-that-will-allow-europeans-to-view-blocked-content #Spying
