Apple doesn't need to scan through all the data; it simply identifies the signature of the documents it is looking for. The company's purported aim is to weed out material with a pedophile content. This system - if accepted for the noble purpose of protecting (...)
Wed Oct 13, 2021 19:38 The Iraqi legislative elections were boycotted by 59% of the citizens. The population is aware that the system is rigged, that foreign powers are calling the shots, that corruption is rife among the elites and that the militias do not abide by the law. It therefore lends no credibility to so-called democratic institutions. The 41% of voters who showed up at the polls upset the political balance.

Thierry Meyssan - Tue Oct 12, 2021 09:28 In the global imagination, Facebook would be a responsible social network that allows everyone to connect confidentially while censoring messages contrary to local laws.

In a few months, this company has become one of the most influential players in world politics.

Manlio Dinucci - Thu Oct 07, 2021 15:38 The human cause of global warming is a highly contested theory in scientific circles, but not by the United Nations, which has a group of experts responsible for formulating public policy in scientific terms, the IPCC. The German government and the owners of the Metro retail group fund the MCC in Berlin, which goes much further. These bodies promote nuclear power as an "ecological energy source".
Thu Oct 07, 2021 07:06 Washington is attempting to reassess its number one strategic priority.

In this context, the Center for American Progress, Washington's leading liberal think tank, has just released a report on China's strategic inroads in Africa . It aims to reformulate (...)
