At this point in history, anyone who is claiming the U.S. Government is not directly coordinating with social media platforms to shape opinion and cull information adverse to their interests, is being intellectually dishonest.ย ย There is simply too much evidence of the intelligence apparatus, specifically the Dept of Homeland Security, being enmeshed with the platforms of Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google and Microsoft.
The DHS justifications for the relationship all involve claims of ‘national security’ and domestic terror threats.ย However, the simple and transparent motivations of the relationship are all political.ย The DHS terms of “disinformation, misinformation and malinformation” are simply excuses for the platforms to adhere to the demands of the government and censor or remove discussion that is against the interests of those in power.ย The truth of this is in the sunlight now.
That said, the relationship between the intelligence community and social media is one of mutual benefit.ย DHS gets to conduct surveillance and control permitted speech in the public square, and in return Big Tech gets assurances of their ability to continue monopolistic enterprise and simultaneously receive subsidies on operational costs.ย The legislative branch allows this synergy without oversight because the legislative branch is in alignment with the larger ‘national security’ ruse.
Into this mix it is worth revisiting congressional testimony from former Twitter founder and CEO Jack Dorsey on March 25, 2021.ย The hearing was on “disinformation” [Transcript Link]:
A shared hashing protocol is a form of data system integration.ย ย Look at what Dorsey was saying about “Blue Sky” his latest big tech initiative, on March 25,2021.
Now, remember the admissions in July, 2021:
July 26, 2021,ย (Reuters)ย โ A counterterrorism organization formed by some of the biggest U.S. tech companies including Facebookย (FB.O)ย and Microsoftย (MSFT.O)ย is significantly expanding the types of extremist content shared between firms in a key database, aiming to crack down on material from white supremacists and far-right militias, the group told Reuters.
Until now, the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorismโs (GIFCT) database has focused on videos and images from terrorist groups on a United Nations list and so has largely consisted of content from Islamist extremist organizations such as Islamic State, al Qaeda and the Taliban.
Over the next few months, the group will add attacker manifestos โ often shared by sympathizers after white supremacist violence โ and other publications and links flagged by U.N. initiative Tech Against Terrorism. It will use lists from intelligence-sharing group Five Eyes, adding URLs and PDFs from more groups, including the Proud Boys, the Three Percenters and neo-Nazis.
The firms, which include Twitterย (TWTR.N)ย and Alphabet Incโsย (GOOGL.O)ย YouTube,ย share โhashes,โ unique numerical representations of original pieces of contentย that have been removed from their services. Other platforms use these to identify the same content on their own sites in order to review or remove it. (more)
A shared hashing protocol is a form of data system integration.
When The Intercept is talking about portals between DHS and social media, the “shared protocols” is the technical name for the data integration between the U.S. government and Social Media.
Now…. again, keep in mind what Dorsey is saying about his Blue Sky network app for a new inclusive social media platform.ย A network that would be established with these “shared protocols.”ย ย Look carefully at what is written in the Intercept Article about the Intelligence Community engagement:
[โฆ] Intelligence agenciesย backed new startupsย designed to monitor the vast flow of information across social networks to better understand emerging narratives and risks. (link)
Jack Dorsey is creating Blue Sky app, a new platform that will connect social media networks and will contain “shared protocols” with the Dept of Homeland Security. Meanwhile, the U.S. intelligence agencies are funding new startup companies to “monitor the vast flow of information across social media networks.”
Do you see it?
Dorsey is creating another Magic Coffee Shop.ย This one will be called “Blue Sky.” It will contain shared protocols.
Against the previous government relationships established by Dorsey, the financing for this network is almost certainly coming from the U.S Intelligence Community.
Can you see it now?
Last point.
A prediction…..
Considering the multinational corporate relationships already established in this new WEF inspired fascist system,…. and considering that Blackrock and Vanguard are the largest shareholders in most major multinationals…… and considering that Blackrock is embedded in the White House via Tom Donilon…. Watch the multinational corporate advertisers all exit Twitter in an effort to kneecap Elon Musk as they switch to support…. wait for it…. Blue Sky!
A tripwire is now created: If Elon Musk continues to sing the praises of Jack Dorsey, then Musk is either naive to the scheming around him, or Musk is in on the scheme.
Tom Donilon is a deep DC swamp operator and has been for his entire career.ย Donilon is connected to every tentacle of the Obama and Biden administrations.ย Donilon is also the Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute. We have written about the conflicts {Go Deep Here} and {Go Deep Here}.
Tom Donilonโsย literal job descriptionย at Blackrock is to โleverage the firmโs expertise and generate proprietary research to provide insights on the global economy, markets, geopolitics and long-term asset allocation,โย and in June 2022 the State Dept appointed him as Co-Chair of the U.S. foreign policy advisory board.
Specifically, the Biden administration put Blackrock Investment Institute Chairman Tom Donilon in charge of U.S-China policy.
(STATE DEPT) โ Today, Secretary Blinken announced his selections for the U.S. Department of Stateโs Foreign Affairs Policy Board.
Since its establishment in 2011, the Board has provided independent advice on the conduct of U.S. foreign policy and diplomacy, consistent with each Secretary of State and administrationโs evolving priorities for it.
Secretary Blinken has sought to build a diverse board that could advance the Departmentโs efforts to better root American diplomacy in the needs and aspirations of the American people. With expertise at the intersection of foreign and domestic policy, the Board will focus on the issues of increasing importance to the lives and livelihoods of Americans in the decade ahead, including cybersecurity and emerging technologies, climate and energy, international economics, global health, and strategic competition with the Peopleโs Republic of China.

It doesn’t matter how sketchy the deep state tentacles are, their motives always come back to money.
There are trillions at stake.
I wonder if Dorsey has been on board with this all along or rather, what I think is more likely, intelligence operators came to him and said do this or we’ll shut you down or make your life miserable. My impression of him is that he wasn’t happy with the current Twitter board and management or the direction the company has gone. I think Sundance is right that advertisers are going to flee.
They are figure heads just like little mark of Fakebook who will lie under while being protected because of who they are being directed by.
How much of the mega data center in Utah that we taxpayers paid for is being used for this ?
The kicker is that this data center is one that we *know* about.
Are there others? Almost certainly for purposes of redundancy and reliability of function.
Reminds me of the rumors of a large number of data centers being constructed in Virginia. For Amazon Web Services was it?
Lately all the security soft ware providers want you to back up all your data on their cloud, you know in case your computer crashes. The cloud is just a bunch of storage devices. Who owns the cloud, where is it located and who has access to it.
I guess you just have to trust them. I don’t and I won’t.
I am not going to give any trust to a device to store my data that I do not have physical control over either.
True. At the end of the day physical control = ability to disconnect or to delete/destroy.
The whole point, however, is to communicate. A useful capability in times of emergency.
We’re all in the process of learning to be better stewards of our privacy information.
All my stuff goes on my own RAID with single layer optical for critical data in case of EMP. Always has, since the early 90’s. Clouds are for rain. Heh.
I have never used the cloud.
Yes you have. All your emails are in the cloud or backed up out there.
And documents. Nearly anything you type on your keyboard is being stolen and stored.
If you really wanted to, a system can be configured to monitor everything outbound.
Cloud has always meant someone else’s computer that you don’t control.
I have been anti-cloud from the beginning, and always will be.
Encrypt your data with a trustworthy, robust crypto system.
Come to Loudoun County Virginia. Youโll find your answer. Just drive down the greenway and look to your right going west bound.
No doubt. I’ve traveled around the beltway a time or two.
lol, geographically impaired…
Probably in China…? I’m sure there’s a huge bed there somewhere.
The Data centers are definitely there in Loudoun County.
My guess would be, only the small amount of space not already devoted to “pictures of grandchildren and yoga classes.”
You know – that’s the database of any information accidentally gleaned from their “friendlies” in the 0ligarchy tier 2. That’s probably its title – in fact I bet there are hashtags.
Of course, they do keep everything. At any moment some “friendly” may step out of line and need to be crushed too.
Maxine Waters can tell you all about it.
None of this is about building competitive products for the consumer. For these people $40 billion is peanuts. The big advertisers send money to subsidize these social media orgs- not for return on their investment dollar.
Dorsey is a front man. The technical and financial forces behind this Bluesky will build and deploy this. If not with Dorsey, with some other wonderkind.
Ma Bell ‘breakup’…just to fool the masses into thinking there will be competition. Bigger mouse trap. IMHO.
i think they likely gave him (and the others at the time) an ‘offer he couldn’t refuse’. something is in jack’s magic background…
I believe Dorsey left Twitter because his vision of the company had been hijacked.
Ive noticed that so far Elon is using the same model that made GAB successful.
Paid verification with access to more content is exactly what Andrew Torba did.
The libs are angry because itโs not free. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
You should re-read Sundance’s post. This is far beyond “product visionaries”. They are colluding with the DS to implement world-wide internet-based censorship of all content, from all sources and platforms.
Marxists love to spend money. Just not their own.
More like will be ordered to flee (or stay) Blackrock is calling all the shots as if “they” run the companies. They do. Not pretty, but 75 million MAGA folks have some leverage.We need to learn to use it, just lie the elections.
At least 100 million and growing exponentially.
musk is talking up using protocols like Blue Sky to integrate Twitter into social media like Truth Social
an earlier version
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_ID
I have spent time with Jack in the recent past when he was still CEO of Twitter. I considered him a Libertarian free speech advocate. The last I talked to him was about 2017. Things change and people become compromised by the trappings of wealth and power. His actions came to puzzle me over the last few years as either he did well to fool me or has gone along with the forces around him. Either way it happened and he cannot be trusted anymore to look after the interests of free speech.
It wouldn’t be a surprise if he was offered a choice by the commies in the DS: enjoy your wealth and go along, or we destroy everything and every one you care about, then finally you.
The Intercept is a limited hangout, always was

Why is everything about going after โWhite Supremacy and Right wingโ when White Supremacy is the new Russian boogie man and is the democrat party and the Right Wing that is not responsible for burning cities and capturing government buildings and trying to kill (Bernie Bros) politicians while playing softball.
Questioning any aspect of the woke ideology gets you labeled a white supremacist. Anyone who questions affirmative action is a white supremacist, and suddenly Asian Americans are now White, just lke the White Hispanics, and anyone who quesstions blind adherence to foreign policies that benefit no one but Israel are antisemites. White supremacy is the new catch phrase bogeyman.
Trapper, please specify which policies you are referring to.
White supremacy LOL. So ridiculously absurd.
The left are the white supremacists . Every single mass shooter has been a self admitted leftist , ZERO right wing people .
EVERY so called “Hate crime” has also been a leftist but the media as is always the case insists it’s a right winger .
Leftist’s are by far the most INTOLERANT HATEFUL and VIOLENT people on the planet.
White Supremacist is just a synonym for dissenter… a label to generate hatred for the labelled.
Nothing more.
Indeed there are.
Surely Power and Total Control at this point is more important to the Cabal then the trillions which they already have. With Total power and control why worry about money?
One World Globalist Super Government and depopulation to 500,000,000 slaves is much more lucrative.
And as far as Jack is concerned, his usefulness to the Cabal will come to an end too one day.
BlackRock and Vanguard arenโt majority shareholders in the big multinationals. They are, along with a few other firms , the largest shareholder.
Larry Fink is CEO of BlackRock and sits on the boards of the WEF and CFR. Heโs deep in the Great Reset.
And he has such an appropriate name. Despite the dire situation, it always makes me smile…
Thatโs โLawrence Finkโ to you, buddy.
Rat Fink.
Straight from my misspent youth…VROOOM!
More to it than that,TttHP. Take Visa for instance, a company with an obscene profit margin. Yes, top three shareholders are Vanguard, Blackrock, and State Street. Number four is T Rowe Price. The top three shareholders for T Rowe Price are Vanguard, Blackrock, and State Street. Gives you an idea of how deep that shell game is. And remember Vanguard is opaque. We have no idea whose money that is.
Bannon is correct, THERE IS NO ONE COMING TO SAVE US! IT IS UP TO US! Period.
Should we be praying for a Carrington event across the world to save us for a different ‘reset’ than what the WEF planned?
Besides being a technology wonk in many areas … Elon Musk is …. #1A out for Elon Musk, as are allot of people these days but Elon happens to be one of the richest guys in the World .. and …#1B is a Businessman who craves profits, like well all business people.
Elon and Jack Dorsey will come to an “accommodation”.
It also is very important to keep in mind while we are all thrashing about on how Elon will evolve Twitter … Twitter and Elon’s satellites over the Ukraine are NON-ATTRIBUTIONAL (privately owned, technically not Government owned) foundational parts of the C4I system being used by NATO forces in the Ukraine. It is the combat multiplier edge those NATO forces have over the Russians at this point in time, aside from an edge in troop quality.
Elon wants to make a buck while not waking up with the dead horse head in his bed.
Itโs important to understand that there are 2 different definitions of โdemocracyโ. Thereโs the dictionary definition which everyone understands as individuals having a voice in their own self-government. And then thereโs the second definition, which is actually what democrats and GOPe politicians are referring to when they say โdemocracyโ. Their definition is defined as the current government and all if itโs bureaucracy.
Now, take all the claims of โthreat to democracyโ in that context and you understand exactly how and why the politicians justify their heavy handed involvement in monitoring and controlling social media, the legacy mainstream media, and all public opinion.
If the masses knew the truth, it would truly be a threat to their โdemocracyโ.
Hence, everything is justified to maintain the โdemocracyโ.
I encourage everyone to read and interpret all democratโs statements involving threats to โdemocracyโ and domestic terrorism with their definition of the word. Then everything makes complete sense.
A case in point, consider that leak of training material from the FIB on domestic violent extremists, courtesy of Project Veritas.
“Their definition is defined as the current government and all if itโs bureaucracy”
Which is why they usually phrase it as “a threat to our democracy”.
Yes, ” A threat to OUR Bureaucracy.”
Many mistakenly say the first obligation of government, is the security of the populace.
While TECHNICALLY true, the buerocratic interpretation of that is;
If the Government can’t function, it can’t perform its task of assuring the security of the populace.
Therefore the Government MUST first see to its OWN security, so that it can meet its obligstion to the people.
Like who do you put the O2 mask on first, in an airplane.
Hence, the buerocracy can justify shooting its citisens, if they are percieved as a threat to the government.
“We HAVE to shoot the people, to SAVE the people!”
Hence…No fed employee should suffer during a “gov’t shutdown”, and should therefore get back pay (unlike private sector workers), no hovt employee lost a cent in pay during the shutdown, while their neighbors lost their businesses and homes.
I remember talking with two teachers in 2012 (the depths of the Great Recession in S. FL), who were complaining that they didn’t get their 3% automatic raise. I knew that lots of their neighbors were losing their homes.
I asked them how they could complain, when they had a steady job, and they just stared at me. AND THEY WERE “CHRISTIANS”. Big wakeup call.
Thanks for the tripwire, sundance. Nobody lays ’em out the way you do!

โWatch the multinational corporate advertisers all exit Twitter in an effort to kneecap Elon Musk as they switch to supportโฆ. wait for itโฆ. Blue Sky!โ
I am not sure how their choice to stop inundating consumers with their ads is going to get people leave Twitter and follow the globalist to join Blue Sky. Consumers rarely seek out advertisements. That could also be why Musk is seeking alternative methods to monetize the platform.
And for my own BLue Sky. I had an English teacher that would write โyour pouring on the the BSโ on my papers if I meandered to far from the topic. She said that I was painting Blue Sky.
.
An English teacher said that?
We need the context:
E.g., did say teacher write, โI am drowning in your pouring on the BSโ or was the statement complete as you wrote it?
Because if it is the latter, that English teacher should have written, โYouโre pouring on the BSโ . . .
She wrote the letters BS. Are you my old English teacher from 40 years ago coming back to haunt me about my terrible writing? ๐ค
And then there is Blue Sky lending as well. Wait for it.

I expect most people are not familiar with how hashes work. Hash algorithms are designed to generate a unique hash value corresponding to the exact contents of a file. Change anything in the file, and the hash computed from it is different. Close doesnโt count.
So any social media sites suppressing content according to government-supplied hashes are acting as government censors, full stop. There is no credible denial of this point.
Yes, it is that diabolically simple.
“Tech Against Terrorism is delighted to announce that the TCAP is now hashing all URLs that contain terrorist content and will be sharing this with the GIFCTโs hash-sharing consortium to further achieve our mission to support smaller tech companies with removing terrorist content.”
So, for example, a hash is generated for one of Sundance’s posts. It gets flagged through various algorithms. Then it effectivly disappears from the internet.
https://terrorismanalytics.org/project-news/hashing
Would be hard to block content like that if it was distributed on a parallel internet structure that they did not have complete control over.
So… we could expect a crackdown on unauthorized wireless point to point transmissions. The FCC will be right on top of that.
They control the internet and the ISPs and all the infrastructure & equipment providers. The big platforms will adopt it willingly. Smaller planforms and web hosting services will be forced to implement it.
Alternative DNS servers and VPN may buy some time, if perchance “someone” is building such a parallel structure. But, I can tell you, this is not it:
I could conceive of a lot of things like that.
Limited resources however, constrain anything I could do individually. Within a community it might be doable.
I have quite the skepticism of that Elon Musk and I don’t implicitly trust his stated motives for anything.
Holy cow!
-Worse than auto correct
Just out of curiosity, how does “the dark web” relate to this?
I know nothing but what I have heard, what we have all heard, that all sorts of criminal transactions are conducted there.
Recall that “Prohibition turned 10’s of millions of law abiding citisens into criminals over night,..”
and wondering if Govt censorship could eventually drive patriots to “the dark web” as an alternative?
Interesting. One way to look at “dark web” is like an “underground culture” in any city. Places, people, activities that are there but not seen on the surface. One can go to them on the same roads and sidewalk, but one must know where to look and how to get in. But, one still depends upon the government keeping these streets and sidewalks open – to look the other way from the dark activities.
Parallel information systems on the internet could develop with the type of censorship being proposed, similar to how open-source apps, encryption and alternative network protocols give us options today. But, under the name of “national security” the government and corporate network infrastructure are merging through massive monopolies- that infrastructure could be closed off even today if they wanted to.
Dangerous times ahead for freedom – the Patriot Act is the chains to bind free citizens.
Somewhat OT but definitely related,
Could one use this hash algorithm and technology to root out ballot fraud?
I’d like to get a hash number printed out after casting a vote.
When I get home, I can punch in the numbers and see how the voting machine tabulated my choices and get confirmation if it was approved, or not.
Is that crazy talk?
Digital signatures.
But that would require a trustworthy key management system.
Similarly….blockchain. But that is infrastructure intensive.
Hashing is already being used, big time, in so-called cybersecurity ecosystems to share malware code, attack methodology, etc. It also has other uses such as database design to realize very efficient search capabilities for information retrieval.
Simple hash systems are easy to defeat.
Hashing is one technology among others.
I agree with your main point – suppressing content (i.e., censorship) – but not necessarily gov’t supplied hashes in general (refer to cybersecurity uses; this has been in play for a long time).
We already know censorship has been coordinated along multiple vectors. This is a political problem/privacy issue that our elected representatives are going to have to fix.
A “Common Operating Environment” or COE code which underpins a common network of shared information. This form of protocol has DARPA written all over it. Who else integrates massive data from far away sources in real-time but USG?
Pioneers sure, first to the party likely. Surely others have followed their model.
DISA.
DISA made COE for military use and then it was weaponized for social media meta-data mining by DHS, despite the 4th Amendment and Redcoat spying a revolutionary spur for Concord and Lexington.

What is Bluesky, the potential Twitter alternative being tested by former CEO Jack Dorsey?
https://news.yahoo.com/bluesky-potential-twitter-alternative-being-111738532.html
Great question.
Defense Information Infrastructure/Common Operating Environment (DII/COE)
I’ve been looking for the requirements statement, architecture documentation and any associated RFCs.
Not readily available.
This does indeed look like complete censorship and control of all internet content and communications. They intend to censor at the internet level, not at the app or server levels.
Terrorist Content Analytics Program TCAP
I looked around a bit and found a UN-type high level description of a project much like what Sundance is describing.
With this, Twitter’s model of banning is of no value to them as a censorship tool anymore. With this, for example, they can effectively ban a Truth Social member – Trump can send out all the Truths he wants but no one will see them. Put it into a Tweet or an email – nope it goes nowhere.
“The TCAP automates the swift detection and removal of verified terrorist content on tech platforms, through work by our open-source intelligence experts and AI-driven processes. The TCAP primarily focuses on small tech platforms who may not have the capacity to moderate terrorist content through automated processes, meaning terrorist content is more likely to stay online and disseminate further. The TCAP archive seeks to maintain a record of all content to protect human rights and support academic research.”
https://terrorismanalytics.org/
“Far Right” groups are considered terrorists:
“We closely follow the designation of further violent far-right organisations and individuals, and will include any new designated entities in the TCAP as soon as they are legally designated by the above democratic institutions and nation states.”

If now, you still think we are not being played by Musk, think again.
Looks like we’re back to the Pony Express and carrier pigeons.
“And the signs of the prophets are written on the subway walls, and tenement halls, and in the sounds of silence.”
Anything digital has vulnerabilities.
Information control is no doubt a serious threat to free speech. I worry more about gov’t control/intrusion into communications media – the so called public commons.
Everything digital requires access. Access is granted. One starting point for accountability.
Think very expansively on system of systems relationships.
“A tripwire is now created: If Elon Musk continues to sing the praises of Jack Dorsey, then Musk is either naive to the scheming around him, or Musk is in on the scheme.”
Yeah. There are trillions at stake because the Deep State participants have trillions. That being the case, they are not going to allow anyone but the UNIPARTY to control this. They will do whatever is necessary to keep control. There’s only one thing they don’t currently have control of … our guns. And I don’t see a way fix this without those guns.
They are already working on this.
Survival (for a time) for their firearms.
The coming scarcity of necessary food and energy will convince some to submit and make that trade.

twitter thread on bluesky
On twitter — there is a bluesky account that lays it out and the status…… this is being done in the open to some degree….
Tweets by bluesky
blue skies
Beautiful song. Also covered in fine fashion by Eva Cassidy.
Conservative bloggers will more than likely NOT use blue sky. It will just be a platform for far left propaganda where there is no need to censor.
It will censor content from all platforms.
I am beginning to think that the regime (not just Biden) is preparing for the house and senate to be lost and the next step is war. Obviously republicans are flush with war mongers and will rob the bank to support a war in align with dems.
The other option is the WEF cabal is about to execute another election steal, focused on dems keeping the senate. They are likely focused on both options.
Bottom line, we are at war internally in our beloved USA fighting for freedom and liberty against globalist fascism. In this weird situation Russia is likely a ally to MAGA Anti-globalists in being opposed to the globalist cabal. Pray for a good outcome in Nov. elections and then hold those elected accountable against war.
Unless they are idiots, they understand the Senate isn’t the real threat, if Rs take the majority its not a problem McConnell can’t contain, or Thune if Mitch is forced to step down.
The threat is Govs, SoS’s etc. THAT is where the MAGA forces are attacking the Uniparty, and its where the real power lies.
The Senate? hah!
Facebook, aka lifelong reboot has always been a intel apparatus. Twitter ws developed by who??? Who bankrolled it???
“Watch the multinational corporate advertisers all exit Twitter in an effort to kneecap Elon Musk as they switch to supportโฆ. wait for itโฆ. Blue Sky!”
This puts GM’s decision to “pause” advertising purchases on Twitter into context.
Musk can switch to a subscription biz model.
Up to us whether we want to move from free “stuff” to paying for it rather than the free at the cost of your privacy biz model.
Do you believe CTH will be forced to acquiesce to such censorship?
It’s a two way relationship. If private enterprises want to participate in their long-run demise, that’s their decision.
“Do you believe CTH will be forced to acquiesce to such censorship”
As I understand this, private website content could be censored. It could still created, just not seen. e.g. A post created by Sundance would exist in his WordPress server. When it did, a unique hash would be created automatically on shared government/corporate servers, then flagged. Then when you click on the link/URL for that post in your browser, its content would stream back to you, match the hash, and your ISP would be required block it – in the interest of “national security”.
Nobody is stampeding towards blueskyโฆDOA
Nothing to stampeded to. As I understand it now, it lies below the app. It looks at content and censors independent of its source.
At the end of the day it requires processors, storage, memory, buses, hw, sw, etc. – ones and zeros as well as people. My take is the opposite, it is a capability to enable interoperability among disparate technology suites in the social media space. Not an easy thing to do at scale up and down the OSI model.
It’s control over the communications/transport media that matters most IMO.
Again, there are vulnerabilities in any system. There are political vulnerabilities. There are bifurcations globally – witness what is going on with the global financial system.
Technology evolves. Humans can adapt.
Yes scaling is an issue. But Google has solved many of those problems already with its ubiquitous WWW search servers.
But this not limited to social media apps. It would apply to any content created and sent over the internet by any app.
Musk, as I’ve said, is Luciferian. Just like his mom. His riches are on loan from his god.
Here’s his Halloween costume yesterday, a multi-thousand dollar outfit called “Devil’s Defender”, complete with Baphomet image, pentagram, and inverted cross.

Like Hitchcock’s “Strangers on a Train”, the Occupation Government and Big Tech are swapping crimes. “Criss-cross”.
Big Tech does the Political Censorship that is forbidden to the Regime, and the Regime looks the other way while Big Tech engages in monopoly, commits business fraud, spies on Americans and cuddles up to dictatorships–other dictatorships, I mean.
Social Media Monopolies essentially serve as public utilities today, much like telephone and telegraph companies once did. We broke up AT&T and Ma Bell–and they never tried to censor anybody. We trust-busted Standard Oil, but not even John D. Rockefeller kept a file on everybody on the planet like these megalomaniacs do.
Under Section 230, they claim to be neutral bulletin boards when it helps them–and a Letters to the Editor-page when that helps them. Like a bisexual-Backstreet Boy, “They want it both ways.” Tell me why.
And, for the record, Benito, this Corporate/State Incest is the very textbook definition of “Fascism”.

The battle is the Lordโsโand He wonโt cut a deal. Let’s think like God. Let’s speak like God. He says “VICTORY!”
Victory, Hallelujah!
Victory, Praise God!
Victory, Amen!
Psalm 98:1-2 A Psalm of David
God the Ruler of the World
98 Sing a new song to the Lord;he has done wonderful things!By his own power and holy strengthhe has won the victory.2 The Lord announced his victory;he made his saving power known to the nations.
Amen and Amen!
Rest in the Vine: Big Tech + Big Occupation Government = Big Fascism 101
Amen.
Dude, you never cease to amaze me and I do not say that lightly.
Your background and research into the technical aspects and players either enhances my current knowledge or enlightens me.
What I know or can elnkighten on of the deep, deep background and have alluded to on this site is a thimble full.
Maybe one day, weโll meet and talk in person.
Peace.
The point is not the portals. Those are a cumbersome and ad-hoc means of censoring content. There will be APIs that allow them to use multiple tools at once over large datasets.
And it’ll all run on solar/wind!
Elon Musk did not become a billionaire being stupid. So, either Musk sees / knows and has a plan to deal with what Sundance has detailed here, or Musk sees / knows what Sundance has detailed and has a plan to cooperate with the globalist tech fascists.
Doesn’t matter, I never subscribed to Twitter and don’t plan to now. In fact, I swore off ALL social media after November 3, 2020. This site a couple others are the only “social media” I engage in.
I will take door number 2.
“Musk sees / knows what Sundance has detailed and has a plan to cooperate with the globalist tech fascists”
Musk’s earlier plan did the same thing. Rockets, cars and satellites. With no need for marketing or advertisements. Hmmm.
The rocket and satellite technology he manages came from government contractors. The automotive technology from the multinational car companies. Our politicians and CEOS colluded to give China similar IP, why would they not use the same approach to enable the enemies within?
interestingly……. I cleared all cookies re-started Brave, ran a DuckDuckGO search for: shared hashing protocol
Sundance’s 2 hour-old post was the sixth item returned on the first page
Curious.
Seeming as Duck Duck Go runs through Google servers for searches last I knew.
Is MD5 a shared hashing protocol?
It is.
“A very funny thing happens when every(!) data point is “suddenly within your grasp, without cost.”
โข You declare that every single scrap of it is “relevant.”
โข … to conceal the actual fact that you are both overwhelmed and clueless.
Let me offer a very simple example: “Suppose that you possessed the technology to capture every single utterance that any shopper uttered, “on May 25, 2006,” at a shopping mall?” Suppose that you also possessed a government contract to turn this “data feed” into national defense information? What would you do? Of course.
Well, the present situation is more-or-less exactly the same. “Millions of people have been ‘talking,'” not yet realizing that every room has been “bugged.” Meanwhile, the Defense Department has been letting out contracts. What did you seriously expect to happen next? Of course.
However: Do we now actually have actionable Defense Information, or not? The answer is obvious.
You could have “collected Defense Information” just as effectively had you placed a single microphone under table #7 outside the Chick-Fil-A mall restaurant in Podunk, Idaho, and “transcribed” every single thing that these people said while they were eating their chicken. For all the good it would have done you. (Which is none.)
in 2020 Google used 15.4 terawatt hours of electrical power , roughly that of the entire nation of Syria
Now consider if your real business is blackmail.
The only way out is to cut all cords
Blue Sky…Twitter Bluebird? Hate to to think this was any kind of inspiration for Dorsey. Duane or Dickey in this live version?
The truly great!
Meanwhile, democrat poodles McConnell and McCarthy are just shocked I tell you, shocked.
“We didn’t know nothing” say these 2 operators!
Nothing is going to change until and unless a true opposition party is formed.
Actual opposition parties will be illegal by default.
Mitch and McCarthy have to be forced out or nothing will get done.
Well, no not actually.
Just as they have tried to structure it to make forming a true opposition party impossible, which MAGA is circumventing, they have made it nearly impossible to take control away from the Uniparty in either House of Congress.
Remove Mitch, you get thune, remove McCarthy, you get Scalise; same old RINO in a brand new bottle.
So, MAGA is circumventing both road blocks, by focusing on STATE governments, and Federalism, even as it challenges for Senate and Congress.
Yes, if I had a dollar for every conservative bill that Scalise killed for Boehner, I’d be a rich woman. I was NOT unhappy when he got shot.
It could have been his wakeup call from God to change his ways, but no… He’s still in his scummy ways.
Silly wabbit! A true opposition party IS being formed, within the existing structure of the old Republican State Parties.
With coordination between the MAGA Slates, in various States, it even has the beginnings of an alternative National organisation.
The New Republican Party has a platform, and we will see how well it does, in just a few days.
“Jack Dorsey is creating Blue Sky app, a new platform that will connect social media networks and will contain โshared protocolsโ with the Dept of Homeland Security.”

What, the name “Big Brother app” wasn’t available?
Every system has vulnerabilities.
President of El Salvador on Tucker explained that the havoc is designed and no accident. All over the world, wake up. The elites have a plan and they are not dumb. But they think we are.
His family are Christian Palestinians that fled the Holy Land shortly before the fall of the Ottomans. There were a number who went to El Salvador.
People who have grown up with persecution and tyrants know the signs. Ask the Armenians.
Well at least we didn’t try and blame Obama for what Republicans did in this article.
I still think the “deep state” is a propaganda talking point towards pretending that this isn’t just “the government” period.
It’s systemic and unfixable… But that truth is too scary.
1. The portal is old news.
2. Dr. Shiva exposed it two years ago in his Federal lawsuit. He exposed more more information, “playbooks”, the players, etc.
3. Today he alleges that the wealthy owner of The Intercept… funded the portal!!
The Secretary of State in Massachusetts may have also been involved; and there are ” playbooks” for implementing censoring – like the Harvard Playbook.
Dr. Shiva has posted all of the documents online; Twitter banned him.
Here is today’s video post. I suggestcstarting around the 20-minute mark as he is angry and a bit repetitive. (He feels Tucker Carlson and Tim Poole are pimping his hard work. Dr. Shiva emailed TC numerous times two years ago, and he didn’t help Dr. Shiva in his time of need.)
Oi. My head hurts.
Whether hashing is used or not is not relevant. The sense, detect, respond paradigm can accommodate other technical solutions. Sidebar: hashing schemes can be defeated.
This a legal and political problem. The friggin gov’t in a free society needs to operate under very, very tight rules for suppressing free speech. The rules have to be enforced. This is yet another societal battle that has been bubbling under the surface for a while; another dimension of information warfare.
The primacy of the citizen and our individual rights has to be reestablished.
Won’t happen without bloodshed…A lot of it.
It’s Happening!

Same thing happening to Truth Social?
This Redacted you tube video discusses this discovery of the portals on Twitter and other social media platforms, apparently discovered by the same man who is known as having invented email; 28 minutes:
Yes, 2 years ago. Dr. Shiva has documents, his legal paperwork, specific implementation “playbooks”, etc.
Here’s the thing…the average American doesn’t believe nineteen eighty four or Brave New World are anything but dystopian novels. The lefties have been saying “Don’t say it can’t happen here” for my entire life, probably since WWII.
The fact of the matter is that the scum who have been warning us about “it” happening here are the ones making “it” happen here, and Mr and Mrs America are watching Hulu and Netflix, and doing edibles for grins.
Like I said, it’s not CIA (but NSA was without question the white hat). DHS, ODNI and the new MI-5 (our FBI) are the problem. Langley got the burn under the Church Committee for domestic spying. That said, the last several directors have been bad, very bad stewards of the Agency mission – indeed, anything but the mission, because the mission is hard. To be sure, Brennan was the worst. Haskel is just a pawn. I love DJT, but man, he really picked just the worst people.
Didnโt we just read that Dorsey reinvested in Twitter? Apparently he thinks it will survive โฆ in some form.
“So, if it all goes south, we’ll close down blackbrier, wrap it around Landry’s neck, and start up under a new cover.”
They shut down twitter, by cutting off corporate ad revenue, blame musk for “destroying it” and start up Blue Sky.
Notice no advertisers are sueing twitter, for misrepresenting their “viewership” with bots, and so overcharging for ads.
Given that its obvious, why is that?

Questioned about the possibility that Bluesky will compete against Twitter in the social media space, Jack Dorsey commented that the platform will be โa competitor to any company trying to own the underlying fundamentals for social media or the data of the people using itโ.
However, he added: โThe goal is for Twitter to ultimately be a client of this standard.โ
