Site Update – Subscriptions: ISP Controls Over Information Still the Biggest Issue

Ever since we encountered the first and second wave of information control, a background battle has waged on multiple fronts around the internet.  CTH users may encounter disruptions; some information about ‘Subscription Notifications” follows.

I am currently working through another layer of background problem-solving directly related to CTH requests for subscriber notifications.  At the core of the problem are decisions on what terms and conditions we are willing to accept.

Currently people can subscribe to have a notification of a new article post.  Many people have written over the past several months saying they are no longer getting those notifications.  The problem is multi-layered, and at the core is something no one is willing to discuss, because the biggest control mechanisms in your online travel try to keep this information hidden.

Internet Service Providers (ISPs), they’re the entity who you select to use to access the internet (ATT, Comcast, Verizon, or whatever service you pay), long ago began a process to control the content of the information that is processed by their service.

This issue has become more problematic as various nations and governments have also gone beyond their geographic boundary controls with demands upon ISPs to filter information based on determinations of their various bureaucracies.

As an example, the govt of China, Russia, Europe and even Canada may restrict the flow of information available to citizens within that country.  Traditionally, they would put control mechanisms in place to block websites or traffic they deemed averse to the interests of that government.

However, as you might have realized with the Social Media restrictions in the USA based on COVID-19 (example), the issue is not always limited to “hostile” countries but can specifically be determined by the subject matter of interest.

With the advent of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), the need for control creates ever-increasing tentacles.  One of those tentacles for internet content control extends to ISP companies, who now find themselves subject to terms and conditions of operation; that means they must also adhere to the fiats of the country from which, or to which, the dataflow is connected.

Supreme Court Rules States Can Decide How Long After Election Day Ballots May Be Received

The Supreme Court has ruled 5-4 in favor of Mississippi -vs- RNC that state legislature can decide how long after election day that qualified election ballots cast may be received.  [PDF HERE] Essentially, federal election day is election day, but ballots can be received after election day for the length of time determined by state law.

Justice Barrett delivered the majority opinion, joined by Roberts, Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson.

Justice Alito dissented along with Thomas, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.

The Hight Court outlined that congress could change the ability of the states by changing the statutory language of the federal election law to require ballots be received by election day.  As long as federal law does not outline the deadline for ballot reception, states can extend that process at their legislative discretion.  THIS IS A HOT MESS FUBAR!

[5-4 Ruling Here]

“The federal election-day statutes do not prevent Mississippi from counting absentee ballots postmarked by election day but received up to five days thereafter; nothing in the federal election-day statutes requires ballots to be received by election day.”

Ewe Boll Has Released His Film ‘Citizen Vigilante’ for 48 Hours Via X Platform

Due to migrant crime, a rape crisis and government fear, the movie ‘Citizen Vigilante‘, written and directed by Ewe Boll, has been banned in the U.K and Germany.

Other European countries are limiting the film’s distribution due to cultural concerns and recent events where national patriots are beginning to push back against migrant’s entering their country with the expressed intention to harm and destroy.

The need for control is a reaction to fear.  European government’s fear this movie.  That said, in order to make it available to audiences behind the EU censorship wall, the makers of Citizen Vigilante have released it on the X-platform, and it is being promoted by Elon Musk himself.

I am going to try to embed the video below (not sure if it will work). It is available to watch until 10:00am on June 27.

Prescient Mark Steyn

I previously saw an interesting discussion with NVIDIA Jensen Huang where in the context of AI he was asked: who is the smartest person you ever met?

Jensen Huang paused for quite a few moments thinking about the question before he answered.

Huang then redefined the word “smart.”

‘Smart’ is a word we have historically used in reference to ‘intelligence’.  If a person was intelligent, we say that person is smart. However, in this era of AI at your fingertips, we must break this connection.

Intelligence, the assembly of knowledge about a particular matter of discussion, is no longer limited to educational or real-life training or study by people who focus intensely on subject material.

All of the knowing about a system, any system, process, history or discussion topic is now available almost instantly to anyone in this era of artificial intelligence.

The NVIDIA CEO then continued, therefore, once we break our historic reference connecting ‘intelligence’ and the generalized term ‘smart’, we can properly address the question you present.

Who is the smart man? Or, in the context of the originating question, “who is the smartest person?”

With this baseline established, Jensen Huang then outlined the traits of the smartest person.  The smartest person is not the person with the greatest knowledge; the smart individual is the person who can tune into the frequency of the universal moment, look at the human reality of what is factually taking place that has not yet become an input into the AI capture record, and then predict the material outcome – the destination of knowledge that has not yet arrived.

Essentially, Huang explains the smart person is alone, tuning themselves into the vibration that is the consequence of human activity, financial interests, geopolitical movement, social transformation, economic shifts and cultural modifications.  Then, positioning their interests at the place in the future where they predict all the activity will arrive.

The accuracy of prediction, or predictive positioning, then determines the scale of smart.  The more accurate a person is under this perspective, the smarter they are.

I agree with this perspective.

Canada is Next Up with Online Age Law, Surveillance and Government Control System

It is not coincidental that we have seen Australia, New Zealand, the U.K, and now Canada trigger online ‘age verification’ laws; simultaneous with a political push inside the USA to maintain FISA (702) legislation.

Separating the USA for a moment. The intelligence services of Australia, New Zealand, U.K and Canada make up four of the intelligence services 5-eyes. In essence, the British Commonwealth is the IC commonality. [Yes, there is some validity to the Lyndon LaRouche perspective (Promethean Action PAC)] Additionally, I would also posit a reminder of the international assembly who structured the originating financial sanctions against Russia; again, a commonality.

Focusing on the most recent political creation in Canada, there are three bills currently being rushed through the Canadian House of Parliament, C-34: keep kids safe on social media; C-36: stronger privacy rules, and C-22: modern tools for police.

Not surprisingly, it is difficult to find non-govt-approved information about this legislative construct online.

Canadian media must remain compliant with approved government narratives in order to maintain their business model. However, putting together some various information found on non-controlled information sources, it is possible to begin discussion of the situation.

The two issues that merge with the greatest impact are Bill C-22: The Surveillance Bill, and Bill C-34: The Children’s Safety Bill.

Bill C-22 requires that all information transmission providers, every telecom and internet company, retain metadata on all Canadian users for up to one year.  This is electronic metadata which we all know encompasses a lot more than just content.

Signal app, NordVPN, Windscribe, DuckDuckGo, Apple, and Meta have all formally opposed it. Signal app has threatened to leave Canada entirely rather than comply.  This is a government mandated metadata storage library on all electronic communication and activity by Canadian users. 

Then there’s Bill C-34: The Children’s Safety Bill, as noted by Lucy Hargreaves, a bill that ‘Applies to Everyone’, not just kids.   “The government’s social media ban for under-16s is genuinely popular, with 75% of Canadians supporting it in polling. The problem is what it requires in practice. To stop anyone under 16 from creating an account, platforms need to know how old everyone is. There is no way to identify who is under 16 without identifying everyone who isn’t. This means every Canadian adult would need to submit government ID or a face scan to a third-party verification company before posting a photo, using cloud storage, or playing an online game. The bill also creates a new Digital Safety Commission with sweeping powers to set the rules, decide which platforms must comply, and approve or deny exemptions — with almost no criteria written into the law itself.”

Telegram Founder Pavel Durov Repeats a Warning Message – 5 Eyes Countries Focused on Totalitarian Control

Telegram founder Pavel Durov is one voice who has been consistent in his message about how western countries have become increasingly authoritarian in their efforts to retain power and control.  Durov is the real deal; the John Galt within the mechanisms of digital communication.

The principle under attack is freedom, and the recent examples of internet and social media control via age verification are steps within this process.  Durov notes these moments are like the early stages of the Titanic after hitting the iceberg, where people aboard the ship did not quite realize the scope of the danger around them.

Take the time to listen to what Durov shares with specific examples and citations to back up his warning.  Well worth the time. Pavel Durov shares how Telegram emerged from a commitment to free expression and why defending digital freedom is central to protecting human rights today.

U.K Media Discover British Version of DOJ-CRS called “Research, Information and Communications Unit” (RICU)

Media in the U.K have discovered their domestic equivalent of the American Community Relations Service (CRS).  In Britain the public manipulation operation is run out of an intelligence sub-silo known as the Research, Information and Communications Unit, or RICU.

Both the American government’s CRS, run out of the Dept of Justice, and the British government’s RICU do exactly the same thing.  They manufacture narratives, promote domestic propaganda and support leftist ideology within news cycles.  If there is an event that represents something culturally awkward, like a minority specifically targeting a white person, both the CRS and the RICU quickly go into action to control public information.

Both government organizations can reach into the systems of law and order, police and courts, and instruct the participants about what types of information can be released to the public.  The CRS or RICU then control all information to ensure it is in alignment with the ideological message of the government.   WATCH:

Readers here will likely remember our frequent discussions of the secretive Community Relations Service, within the DOJ.  President Trump initially took apart the CRS, but in the legislative branch congress fully restored the CRS in the continuing resolution funding bill.

DAILY MAIL – […] The 22-strong unit was established in 2007 by the late Charles Farr, a former MI6 officer, as part of the Prevent counter-terrorism strategy.

Modelled on the Information Research Department (IRD), a propaganda unit established by the Attlee government in 1948 to blacken the names of communists and other political opponents, RICU operates out of the Home Office’s Westminster headquarters.

Embattled British Prime Minister Announces Social Media Information Control System to Protect “Children”

Leftist British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has lost support among the majority of voters within the United Kingdom as evidenced by the shellacking his party took in the recent election.  However, as the embattled leader clings to power by telling law enforcement to crackdown on anti-government voices, he extends the control mechanisms under the guise of “protecting children.”

If you are a social media user or internet user in the U.K, you now have to prove your age by proving your identity. It is obvious to the non-pretenders that proving your identity is the objective; the ruse to force the mandate is to prove your age. This is the way a grand lie is deployed in order to achieve an objective.  ‘All your information are belong to us.’

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer delivers a press conference with the announcement from 10 Downing Street. He announces a sweeping ban on social media for children under 16, describing it as a “big step” to protect young people from online harm. Starmer defends the policy as necessary to tackle “addictive algorithms, cyberbullying, and mental health risks.”  Britain will follow Australia’s example in raising the minimum age to 16 for sites such as TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, YouTube, and Snapchat.

BIG PICTURE: Australia, New Zealand and Canada all have social media control systems in place. Now, the U.K joins with them.  What does Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the U.K have on common?  They are all part of the 5-Eyes intelligence network.  This is an IC operation. Don’t lose sight of it.

This is a freedom battle against aligned interests that have historically used the intelligence community as their main strategy.

From the western globalist perspective, you must always accept their #1 priority is information control. It doesn’t matter what the tool or technique of the day being discussed it, the #1 issue -for them- is to control information.

President Trump Notes California Ballot Curation Likely to Eliminate Steve Hilton

The California bespoke ballot process is unique in the nation and developed with a previous legal partnership between California politicians and former Attorney General Eric Holder.

It has been one week since election day and there are likely many more days of ballot curation ahead.  As a consequence, the republican candidate, Steve Hilton, who carries President Trump’s endorsement, is likely to be pushed into third place eliminating him from the general election.  The creation of California ballots takes time and resources.

Locally sourced, artisanal ballots can take much longer to be created and curated than in other states.

[SOURCE]

As the bespoke process now unfolds, Democrat billionaire Tom Steyer will begin the process of gaining a higher percentage of mail-in ballots than previously assigned.  Many people have questioned the length of time; however, Steyer has to make up about 300,000 votes, so the ballot counting will take longer.

Each subsequent batch now needs a controlled lift in the progression. If the ballot counting closed the gap all at once, it would look sketchy. So, the counters need to elevate Steyers percentage a little more with each batch of ballots counted. A slow climb to eventually eclipse Hilton will enable the media to justify a few more weeks of ballot curation effort.

Spencer Pratt Loses – Following Stunning Surge in Mail-in Ballots Nithya Raman Jumps into 2nd Place in LA Mayor Race

LA Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt has dropped to third place and will not make the runoff.  Leftist city council member Nithya Raman, who previously conceded defeat, has now leaped into second place after winning approximately 40% of all mail-in ballots received in the past few days.  A stunning, remarkable, incredible and some say unbelievable outcome.

There are still several days of ballot counting ahead.  After all, the creation of ballots takes time and resources, and as noted by several people in/around the LA area, locally sourced, artisanal ballots can take much longer to be grown and curated.

With an estimated 83% of the post-election ballots now received, Nithya Raman’s concession is null and void.  Her campaign must wipe away the tears and restart efforts toward the general election. Remarkable.

[SOURCE

What a difference a week can make.  However, that said, this California ballot approach has been happening since election year 2018.

Remember, in 2016 California Democrats hired former U.S. AG Eric Holder to assist them with voting constructs.  The legislature then passed ballot harvesting and universal mail ballot laws; which were signed by Democrat governor Jerry Brown.  However, the 2016 presidential election created some panic amid those who organized new ballot creation, mailing and harvesting efforts.

Following the Trump presidential win and fearing a new administration might cross reference the voter rolls to the AB60 laws that linked the ballot creation to illegal alien DMV registration; following the advice of Eric Holder, Governor Brown, Attorney General Xavier Becerra and Secretary of State Alex Padilla quickly deleted the AB60 administrative code that would have permitted cross referencing.
