'Real Problem': Remote Learning Amid Pandemic May Allow Tech Giants to Exploit Children's Data

Julian Vigo, an independent scholar and filmmaker who specializes in anthropology, technology and political philosophy, joined Radio Sputnik’s Political Misfits Friday from Italy to warn about the possibility of children’s data being exploited by big tech companies as governments cede control of public education to Google during online learning.

“Basically, I found out when school started this term that the education was being put contractually in the hands of Google, and I was really not having that. I was extremely upset, I write a lot on tech, and I started to draft a letter to [Italy’s Ministry of Education],” Vigo told show hosts Michelle Witte and Bob Schlehuber.

“The real problem here is that Google is in business, just like Facebook and Twitter, because they’re selling our user data. They make money off of us. That’s OK when you’re an adult; I don't think it’s very OK when we’re talking about children’s lives and their ability to access learning. That’s something that we should not be allowing,” she added.

Judge Cites Trump Tweets in Restricting Feds at Protests

A federal judge found Friday that tweets by President Donald Trump helped incite improper conduct by federal officers responding to racial justice demonstrations in Portland, Oregon, and directed both sides in a lawsuit to determine “rules of engagement” for officers acting outside a U.S. courthouse.

U.S. District Judge Michael W. Mosman granted a preliminary injunction on a First Amendment claim in the case against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security filed by two state lawmakers, the Portland-based Western States Center, a church and a legal observer, The Oregonian/OregonLive reported.

However, Mosman rejected their claim that the federal officers violated the 10th Amendment’s separation of powers.

He directed the parties to agree on the “contours” of the injunction, asking them to provide him with their best proposals within hours Friday because he wants a deal reached before Election Day, when mass protests are expected.

See No Evil: Europe Supports Genocidal Regime in Iran

Swiss and German economic deals might be aiding Iran's illicit nuclear weapons program…. The Swiss firm Ceresola TLS reached an agreement [in 2010] with the Rahab Engineering Establishment in Iran to deliver tunneling technology as part of a subway project. This is precisely the type of heavy earth-moving equipment Iran's rulers need to burrow away nuclear facilities underground, as the regime did with the Qom and Natanz nuclear enrichment plants.

The German company Krempel delivered to two Iranian companies insulating pressboards that were incorporated into Iranian missiles armed with chemical warheads, which were used by the Syrian regime in a chlorine gas attack in January 2018. The attack resulted in 21 injuries, including six children.

The Association of Iranian Banks in Europe wrote in July: "45 percent of the EU exports to Iran came from Germany, which delivered goods worth 555 million Euro, with an increase of 31 percent compared to last year."

US announces seizure of Iranian weapons it says were en route to Yemen

The United States says it has seized a variety of missiles that the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps’ (IRGC) Quds Force shipped to Yemen and announced the sale of Iranian oil it seized in August before it reached Venezuela, saying the proceeds will benefit victims of terrorism.

The U.S. Justice Department announced the actions on October 29, saying the missiles were seized after two U.S. warships interdicted two “flagless vessels” in separate routine security operations in November 2019 and February 2020 in the Arabian Sea.

“Aboard both of the vessels were large stocks of weapons, including 171 guided anti-tank missiles, eight surface-to-air missiles, and various other missile components,” the department said in a news release. “Subsequent investigation revealed the ships’ cargo to be of Iranian manufacture and consistent with known Iranian weapon systems.”

It said additional analysis revealed that the arms were from the IRCG’s Quds Force and destined for militant groups in Yemen. The United States has long accused Iran of illegally smuggling arms to Huthi rebels battling the Yemeni government

Reports Show Trump Rallies Are Not Super Spreaders for COVID-19

Reports of incidences of COVID-19 China coronavirus infections potentially traced to President Trump’s campaign rallies this fall shows low numbers of cases, contradicting fear-mongering that the outdoor rallies attended by thousands of supporters are “super spreader” events.

The Trump campaign does temperature checks of attendees at the entrance to the rallies and encourages the use of face masks and hand sanitizers, however once inside there is little social distancing.

Wearing of masks is more prevalent with those seated behind Trump than with supporters in other sections of the rallies.

Money from Iranian Gasoline Seized on Its Way to Venezuela Will Go to Victims of Terrorism

The United States explained that the sale of oil that Iran makes to Venezuela in exchange for gold directly finances the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Venezuela’s illegal business with Iran will have a different destination than the one planned by Nicolás Maduro‘s dictatorship, which exchanges gasoline for gold, given the country’s fuel shortage.

The U.S. Justice Department reported that it would use 40 million USD obtained from the sale of confiscated fuel to help victims of terrorism, Efe reported.

The amount corresponds to 1.1 million barrels of gasoline, diesel oil, and refined products confiscated in August from the Liberian-flagged cargo ships and Greek shipowners Bella, Bering, Luna, and Pandi.

This was achieved thanks to a lawsuit filed by the National Security Division and the U.S. Attorney’s Office before a court, which led to the seizure of a murky business between two nations that are in Washington’s sights because of their totalitarian regimes linked to terrorism.

In a statement, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that Iran’s sale of oil to Venezuela in exchange for gold directly finances the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRCG), a terrorist organization that has sought to expand in the continent.
