Silly Answer: American morning rituals are sacred. They are to be hidden from our enemies.

Actual Answer:

Small Data sources compiled over time with rough geographic approximation (or direct geographic information such as GPS sensors on phones) as well as likely consumer information can actually form a complete or near complete profile on the habits and locations of individuals, groups, and companies, including military targets. As an example, if we assume all Chinese companies are secretly government controlled (they’re not.) extensions of their spy agency then, for example, a useful profile might include:

Time the alarm clock went off + time water heater gets activated + time coffee maker is set to make coffee + time refrigerator is opened and closed + time recorded by alarm system + video from doorbell cam = Accurate morning routine, including when the house will be empty, when it will be occupied but not actively monitored (during a morning shower), if and when the person might be gone for a run and how long

If you need to target say, a general who you believe has classified information in his home office, then it would be amazing to know all of this. It’d also be easier to just bribe the maid to get what you want (which is how 99% of ‘spying’ operations actually work.)

If you extend that to all things that might form some amount of data on their use, you could get a total profile of everything someone does in a day in their home… or office… or possibly military base.

Now is this is a risk? Yes.

Is this a likely risk? No. Not even a little. Again bribing a maid or maintenance technician is cheaper, easier, and way, way less risky.

Then why do so many Chinese appliances send this information to unknown and scary ip addresses?

Because data is valuable to advertisers, and theoretically it’s valuable to engineers to know how their product is being used. This combined with executives’ push for everything to have an app, because data is valuable and because it makes the product seem ‘modern,’ fully offers a simple explanation on how and why we find ourselves here. But sinophobia in the Amerisraeli Empire is the only way the Epstein class actually maintains any control – if there is an enemy who they accuse of doing even worse, the subjects of the empire let them do anything they way.

Would.

One can assume they’re drawing from current material conditions, and not meaning to disparage the theoretical platonic form of ‘laws;’ specifically the fact that it doesn’t matter which country you pick (with few exceptions that do try their best), under capitalism those with capital statistically make the laws, and specifically make them to bind the working class while not expecting them to ever affect themselves. Now one could argue all laws that could possibly exist do this to some extent. And some people would think you’re correct, but realistically the word society is synonymous with rules, which itself is synonymous with laws, so no one seriously believes that any group of more than one person would exist without some level of legality; though that last line itself is incredibly contentious given the hang up some people have on 'if there are laws then surely there must be a state to enact and enforce them – and to those people I say actually read your literature, either anarchism or communism.

Donald Trump violently raped his ex-wife because his hair plugs hurt. She was bruised for days, according to her book. He saw no jail time. Not even a charge. Not one Epstein Client has seen jail time. The vast majority of cases against the Affluent fail to secure jail time, if they’re even brought at all. In many cases it is not that the laws are written in a way that precludes prosecution, however they are written in a way knowing it is unlikely to ever bring prosecution against those in the Epstein class.

Serious question, do you have autism?

…Yes, I provided an alternative summary. Very good. I’m glad you recognized that I did that and explained it for the class, little one. I don’t know why you people (violently pejorative) get so angry when people don’t mindlessly reply in the exact same way that you do, but it is something you need to get over. You’re not on reddit anymore. American Neoliberalism isn’t welcome here, and soon will not be welcome anywhere on the planet after your Regime leader’s actions over the last few years. You need to get over your programming sooner, rather than later.

Reminding people that this method DOES IN FACT WORK, when the article heavily suggests it is the method, not the people performing the method, that is the problem seems valuable to me. There is nothing wrong with the science behind the Great Green Wall. As empirically proven in the other massive de-desertification project that is on a similar scale. The problem is, very specifically, capitalism and its systemic failures.

They believe creator should be paid. That’s about it. Theoretically it lets you skip the occasions when Noutube/[insert youtube front end]/uBlock origin has issues blocking youtube ads, but that’s rare nowadays.

Victims are always the good guys. Iran did nothing to provoke this war, and Iran has only targeted the infrastructure that has been targeted by the US and Israel. They have allowed the Amerisraeli Empire to dictate the legal targets of war, and the escalation path of war.

All things all governments release or effect, and all things produced to generate or provoke thought are propaganda. Just this time the propaganda happens to be from the good guys in a conflict against one of the most evil empires in world history.
