Careful if you're traveling to Hong Kong with a Bitcoin hardware wallet... Hong Kong has updated enforcement rules under the National Security Law as of March 23, 2026. Refusing to provide passwords or decryption assistance to police is now a criminal offense, covering ALL personal devices including phones, laptops, and likely hardware wallets. The rule applies to everyone in Hong Kong, including US citizens, even if only transiting through the airport. Authorities also have expanded powers to seize and retain devices they claim are linked to national security investigations. Travelers are advised to understand the risks before entering or transiting through the region.

If cash were invented today, it would be illegal to use. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) highlights the prohibiting or denying of licenses to platforms that allow transfers to "unhosted wallets" as a measure to combat illicit finance risks, per its latest report. The report recommends that identity verification be required before any "unhosted wallet" can transact — and that issuers proactively monitor the location and use of their stablecoins in the secondary market, meaning after they leave the issuer entirely. It further recommends that governments require stablecoin issuers to embed blacklists, whitelists, and freeze functions directly into their smart contracts.

Missouri v. Biden just settled. The US government signed a 10-year consent decree today admitting it colluded with Big Tech to silence Americans on COVID, the Hunter Biden laptop, and the 2020 election.

A 10-year consent decree in Missouri v. Biden is the first real, court-enforceable restraint on the federal censorship machine. Rational Ground was...

I knew I had heard the word #Palantir long before the company came on the scene but never really thought much about it... I figured it out serendipitously over the weekend while watching the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Palantir is the singular of Palantiri. The so-called "Seeing-Stones" are 7 indestructible, spherical, dark crystal artifacts used for long-distance communication and viewing past or distant events. In the story, they were created by the Elf, Fëanor, and used by the stewards and kings of Gondor, but became dangerous tools that allowed Sauron to corrupt users like Saruman by manipulating what they saw.

@OpenMike Investigation finds it was Barack Obama who allowed Ticketmaster and Live Nation to merge. After the merge, Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino earned $70.6 million in 2017, one of the largest CEO pay packages ever recorded “Ticketmaster and Live Nation can basically do whatever they want because they have seized control over every aspect of the live music industry by creating a monopoly. This ticketing cartel has the power to destroy venues and artists who refuse to work with them even have their own resale platform and they encourage and incentivize ticket resellers to gouge fans” This show our politicians actually work together to protect monopolies instead of stop themdestroy venues and artists who refuse to work with them even have their own resale platform and they encourage and incentivize ticket resellers to gouge fans” This show our politicians actually work together to protect monopolies instead of stop them.
