Internet Shutdown Observatory
Our Internet Shutdown Observatory uses novel measurement, classification and attribution techniques to detect internet disruptions, online censorship and cyber-attacks on critical infrastructure in the defence of human rights, democratic process and digital prosperity.
Non-partisan internet observation and monitoring requires the highest ethical standards for impartiality and accuracy based on credible methodologies that incorporate best practices that are suitable to operate at internet-scale over extended periods. These efforts enhance digital integrity by deterring and exposing disruptions and shutdowns, deterring and mitigating potentials for internet-based attacks on critical infrastructure and offering recommendations for improving internet governance and digital policy to build more resilient and decentralised networks.
The initiative also seeks to promote public confidence as the internet’s usage evolves to new form factors and to promote safe, secure and private citizen participation through platforms that are free of censorship and unreasonable restrictions while enshrining transparency, fundamental human rights and the rule of law.

Gay people will be stoned to death as Brunei implements Sharia law
People who commit adultery or have gay sex will be subject to death by stoning after Brunei brought back strict Sharia law. Human rights groups have reacted in horror at the latest hardline move from the resource-rich nation on Borneo, which practises a stricter brand of Islam than its neighbours Malaysia and Indonesia. The tiny sultanate will implement the harsh new penal code – which also prescribes amputation of a hand and foot for theft – next Wednesday

Iran: Flood victims protesting mullahs’ regime, Rouhani
Iran, March 28, 2019 - Angry flood victims of a village near the town of Aq Qala in Golestan Province, northeastern Iran, were seen voicing their strong protests on March 27 when the mullahs’ president Hassan Rouhani visited the area after a delay of many days. These angry locals are holding the regime and officials’ incompetence/corruption responsible for the floods.
Aq Qala locals were furious about why no relief aid has been provided after the flood. They criticized regime officials and emphasized how locals were the only individuals actually providing aid to their neighbors. There was no sign of any authorities or state institutions doing their duty, the angry locals added.
The devastation of floods continue across Iran as reports continue to show more people suffering.
Water levels have risen to such an extent that a goal of a football/soccer field in the city of Karoon in Khuzestan Province is seen going completely under water and locals say in irony the field has literally turned into a lake for the athletes.

Where prosecutors stumbled in Bogucki and Cartel cases
Courtroom losses suggest failure to read the FX industry correctly before jumping into action
US prosecutors’ failure to make charges stick against former foreign exchange traders accused of misconduct has exposed gaps in understanding an industry that officials are still trying to clean up.
Recent losses against the ‘Cartel’ three and former Barclays trader Robert Bogucki suggest government prosecutors may be misreading the culture of the FX industry before leaping into action.
Earlier this month, California judge Charles Breyer acquitted Bogucki of fraud charges brought by the US,

The Misplaced Priorities of the FBI and DOJ Protect the Deep State Seditionists
Today’s Campaign Update
(Because The Campaign Never Ends)
But…but…but wouldn’t that be double jeopardy? Answer: No. – Corrupt Cook County State’s Attorney Kimberly Foxx and a corrupt state judge can fix things for Jussie Smollett at the state level, but there isn’t a thing they can do to help him out with federal crimes he may have committed in his effort to smear President Donald Trump and his millions of supporters.
Before he claimed to have been attacked by two MAGA-cap-wearing thugs – a claim the Chicago PD investigated and determined to have been laughably false – Smollett may have committed the federal crime of mail fraud. A week prior to that alleged assault, a threatening letter arrived at the offices of “Empire”, complete with “MAGA” smeared across the envelope.
Investigators suspect Smollett mailed the letter to himself in his pathological efforts to get himself a raise by convincing the TV series’ producers that he had become a widely-recognized star. You seriously cannot make this stuff up.

There is mysterious 'undocumented technology' hidden on Intel computer chips
Computer experts have claimed that the chips which power most of the computers in the world are hiding mysterious and ‘undocumented’ technology. Analysts from Positive Technologies alleged that Intel chips and processors contain an enigmatic ‘logic signal analyser’ capable of reading ‘almost all data on a computer’. The claims are likely to alarm conspiracy theorists…
The analyser was discovered in the Platform Controller Hub (PCH) on Intel motherboards as well as the main processor itself. Together, these parts of the computer serve as its ‘brain’. It’s called VISA and can potentially allow hackers or spies to access the information stored in the computer memory as well as the information generated by ‘peripherals’ – the name for computer accessories which could include anything from a webcam to a mouse. The VISA technology was believed to be used to check Intel microchips for flaws, but Positive Technologies suggested it could also be used to ‘capture and analyse’ data.

ICYMI: Mueller’s collusion delusion: US media is furious their president isn’t a Russian spy (VIDEO)
The dysfunction in American politics has reached the bizarre stage where there is visible anger that President Donald Trump didn’t collude with Russia to take the office.
Russiagate has been a fixture in the news for two years, where the media sold a story that it wasn’t a case of ‘if’ but ‘when’ Special Counsel Robert Mueller would find evidence to prove that Trump was Moscow’s man in the White House.
Unfortunately, Mueller wasn’t playing ball and – having taken the unprecedented approach of considering facts and not wishful thinking – he concluded that there was no evidence of collusion to be found.
So ICYMI looks at how America is dealing with the fact that Trump may have been elected because people thought he was the best option.

Note To Beto: There Is No Impending Climate Refugee Crisis
Beto O’Rourke is an example of a snowflake teenager growing up thinking he knows everything about anything that is, in actuality, a big nothing-burger. There is no impending refuge crisis and never has been. Beto is simply reading old scripts from the United Nations. ⁃ TN Editor
This Tuesday, the newest entrant to the 2020 Democratic presidential field, Beto O’Rourke, warned on his first campaign stop in New Hampshire of a mass refugee crisis when “some of the countries in the Western hemisphere are no longer habitable by human beings.” The notion that climate change is causing forced migration all around the world is bogus, and O’Rourke would be well advised to avoid commenting on a subject he plainly hasn’t studied very closely.
The notion of mass climate refugees is usually traced to a 1993 book by British environmentalist Norman Myers, who somewhat magically produced the figure of 200 million climate refugees to get the debate going. Prominent Norwegian peace scholars Nils Petter Gleditsch and Ragnhild Nordås have said “it is generally recognized that this figure represents guesswork rather than a scientifically-based estimate.”

Two Ways Our World Resembles “1984”
It had been at least 25 years. Most of what I remembered seemed to be fragments of quotes and cliches my brain had absorbed from internet articles and pop culture. Truth be told, I had always been more partial to Brave New World. Perhaps because Huxley’s dystopia had always seemed lighter and less malevolent. Less gritty.
I’m not sure which book I prefer now, but I will say reading 1984 today was a very different experience. To a teenage mind, 1984 is basically an allegorical prophecy of the modern police state. Big Brother is watching. Telescreens are everywhere. Children spy on their parents and report them to Thought Police.
I don’t mean to diminish these themes. Orwell, a one-time socialist who soured on its ideology once he got a good look at it, was prescient to observe how totalitarian surveillance states would operate. (Bear in mind, 1984 was published two years before the Stasi was formed.)
Orwell’s Philosophy
What impressed me reading 1984 today was Orwell’s grasp of the philosophy behind Big Brother, or, rather, its lack of philosophy (beyond Nihilism). Truth, we see, does not exist in Oceania, the totalitarian nation-state that serves as the setting of 1984.
The absence of truth is shown at various times in various ways, but it most famously is depicted when Winston Smith, the book’s protagonist, reflects that it’s only a matter of time before the Party would insist that two plus two makes five.
