 What's Up tests new feature to fight misinformation, can't make this shit up. What's Up one of the most popular instant messaging platforms on the planet is testing a new feature that could make it simple for its two billion users to tell whether the assertions made in this message have any merit to it or as they call it, is it true? And the most recent beta version on Android, the Facebook-owned service has given the users the ability to quickly comb through the web with the text or video they received for more context. What's Up has been testing this feature in some capacity for several quarters now. Last year, it allowed some users to look up images on the web, but a spokesperson now has told TechCrunch that the platform plans to roll out this feature in the near term future. Well, well, well, what does this tell you? Well, it pretty much tells you that every known aspect of society, all privacy is eroded and it's nothing new. You, we've been seeing the erosion of privacy for a very, very long time. The technocratic elites in Silicon Valley with all their fancy companies literally are ripping every aspect of privacy that, you know, and the crazy thing, this is the most fucking crazy thing possible, is we are freely giving the data in our privacy towards these beautiful companies that care so much about us because Facebook really cares about my well-being, both mentally, physically, spiritually, and financially. You know, there's that saying, if you're not paying, you're the product, and fuck me, are we the motherfucking product? All your data, everything about you, what you like, your political affiliations, your creed, your, if you're gay or not, your religion, who you're associated to, every known fucking aspect, your wife, if you wipe your ass with fucking toilet paper A, they fucking know this information about you and they're selling that information to people. Now, why privacy is important? Because privacy is a sovereign human right. Governments do not grant rights. You need to understand this. People keep on getting a fucking twisted. It's a sovereign human right to have privacy. It's a sovereign human right to protect you and yourself and your family from danger. It's a sovereign right for freedom of speech to practice your religion. These are, let's put in quotations, God-given, sovereign rights of a human being. Government doesn't give you these rights. Remember, we are the government. We empower the government through our voting. That's a whole different kind of worms. But this is really important information to you because let's not forget, there's places around the world that if you're talking about certain people, well, you disappear. There's places around the world, depending on your sexual orientation, well, you just might get hanged in front of everybody. Depending on your places in the world, if you have anything to say against anybody, well, you just fucking disappear. And this is the majority, not the minority. And I can't stress this enough. You know, you gotta think forward to this. It's not just about you. It's about your extended family. It's about everybody around the world. Privacy is the most important fucking thing for the human race to survive. We cannot have big brother, in this case, the technocratic companies are the same. They cannot be monitoring everything you do. Like for fucksakes, every single aspect of your being, when you're on face, face deal, I call it, they take every data and sell it to the highest bidder. This is why I'm a big, big fucking proponent of you controlling your data. You opting into better services to protect the privacy in your life. So I recommend, if you haven't done it already, use Signal. It's an open source, messaging app. They have it on Android. They have it for Apple. It's not the best UYUX, but it works. Use Proton, PGP, email. Like start doing these simple things. We call it like privacy hygiene. No, it's not the greatest. It's not the best in the world, but it's 10 million fucking times better than you using WhatsApp or Facebook in a face deal or Instagram or Twitter. If you're talking with people around the world about sensitive information, and I just gave you examples, sexual orientation. Oh, well, I don't like that political party. Well, I'm this type of ethnicity. Well, it's pretty fucking dire in those situations and these circumstances. So let's get power back to the individual user. Let's start focusing on privacy. Remember, it's a sovereign right. It's your sovereign right to have privacy away from other people and start practicing better technical hygiene. Signal app, PGP, Proton, email. We can even get into like VPNs. Those aren't free, but like 20 bucks a year, all different types of VPNs. Get a VPN for your phone. Get a VPN for your desktop and start practicing privacy hygiene. I should make a website, privacyhygiene.com where we have the best tips and tricks and products around privacy. It's so fucking important, especially now in these times. You see now with the pandemic and corona, all these amendments are gonna come in. National emergency. Oh, we can just do whatever we want, whenever we want, whoever we want. And it's imperative that we come together and use better technology. You know, Wade Dye had a good saying, famous open source software engineer who worked on Bitcoin. He's like, and I'm paraphrasing here. In the history of humankind, there has never been a regime or a government that's never turned on its own. It always happens. Always, like think about it in every fucking government, in regime, empire, whatever you wanna call it, in the history it implodes, it turns on its own people, always. We can never really stop that pattern as Rene Rajar talks about in Mimesis. It's a recurring pattern and we see it right now too. But what we can do, and this goes back to the laws of nature, we can create better technologies to supersede their technologies. Hence, Bitcoin's one of them. Single, a signal, yeah. It's another one. PGP, Protomail is another one. So instead of fighting it as in like, stop what you're doing, let's create better systems just like in nature. In nature, if a predator or alpha apex predator comes around, it's a better technology. If an organism, in this case, let's say the virus, it's a smarter, better technology that wipes people out. These are technologies. Nature has the best answers. So let's mimic nature. Let's create better technological advancement. The tools that you and I can utilize to supersede the oppressive regimes around the world and supersede these technocratic companies like Fuckface Steel and WhatsApp and all these people. What do you think of what's the founders left? Yeah, the founders left. They gave signal, the foundation, I think it was like $50 million grant. Good for them. Bravo, bravo, bravo. And let's start getting together and building better tools and having better knowledge and privacy hygiene so we can just protect ourselves. I'll leave it at that.
