today I deleted hundreds of telegram groups i was subscribed to. afterwards it felt i lost about 30 pounds of mental weight. it turns out i don't need to be tuned into the latest wars, geopolitics news, food shortages, surveillance bills, or whatever bullshit in real time. first and foremost i am taking back control of my mind, i suggest you do the same.

🐔 Mass Non-Compliance Works. Mexico tried to force Digital ID & Biometrics on 82 million people -- and they failed. June 30th was the deadline for people to register with the 'CURP', Mexico's biometric registration system. As of the deadline, 82 million lines are still not registered. This band of holdouts is preventing Mexico from becoming a total technocratic state. Let's take a lesson from them. Never comply with Digital ID. ¡Viva la Independencia!

@durov — why on earth does Telegram not use HTTPS? this paper verified that unique device identifiers are sent completely naked over the internet, which would enable internet service providers and agencies to track users. you critique WhatsApp’s privacy -- but this appears to be a failure of yours. do you want people to switch away from Telegram? fix this. paper here: https://symbolic.software/pdf/gnmx-01.pdf

🙏 Kenya's New Data Center Will Require Shutting Half the Country Down Announced in 2024, Microsoft is planning to build a 1 GW data center in Kenya. “We would need to switch off half the country for the data center to be powered,” President Ruto said. Once again, governments and big tech companies are trying to create power out of thin air, putting everyone else at risk. https://www.techradar.com/pro/microsofts-usd1-billion-kenya-ai-data-center-project-hits-major-hurdle-as-the-government-says-it-would-require-switching-off-half-the-country-to-meet-power-needs — 🫶 @takebackourtech

⚡️God Save the Digital ID (U.K) Despite massive backlast to the U.K Digital ID program, the King and current administation are marching forwards. Instead of ‘Digital ID’ required to work by 2029, they’ve given everyone a break… now its just ‘Digital Verification’ required for everyone to work by 2029. So there’s no getting out of biometric capture. A panel of 100 Britains will be chosen for a ‘People’s Panel’, the U.K government is interested in how they can get Britains to ‘love’ Digital ID as much they do. Good luck with that. 👀 Watch full episode on Substack:

⚡️ Return of the Luddites I'm sensing a shift towards open resistance against harmful technologies like data centers and surveillance cameras, and I'm not the only one. But to understand where its going we must look to the past. James Corbett breaks down the Luddite movement in its historical context, looking at sabotage and assassinations, and its representation in fiction like in the Dune series. I'm honored to join James for the last half of this episode to discuss the AI Data Center Map & solutions. Watch Butlerian Jihad on the Corbett Report

#introductions hi, i'm Hakeem. Using Bitcoin since 2012. Lost most of it playing Texas Hold-Em. 🃏 I'm not a Bitcoin maxi, but a privacy & freedom maxi. I run a conscious technology company (https://abovephone.com) and have a show covering tech news. (https://tbot.substack.com) We are experiencing the biggest shift in consciousness ever seen before. Those clinging to old systems or old ways will be pinned under the rubble. Those willing to challenge themselves, their beliefs, and adapt will pave a new path forward for humanity. Each of us has our own special, sacred mission to fulfill. Mine is to help people reclaim their technology. What's yours? P.S - I'd like to see more solutions for private payments on Nostr. What have you got for me?
