π€« A story shared by Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, uncovered that the current leaders of Signal, an allegedly βsecureβ messaging app, are activists used by the US state department for regime change abroad π₯·

π₯Έ The US government spent $3M to build Signal's encryption, and today the exact same encryption is implemented in WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Google Messages and even Skype. It looks almost as if big tech in the US is not allowed to build its own encryption protocols that would be independent of government interference πβπ¦Ί
π΅οΈββοΈ An alarming number of important people I've spoken to remarked that their βprivateβ Signal messages had been exploited against them in US courts or media. But whenever somebody raises doubt about their encryption, Signal's typical response is βwe are open source so anyone can verify that everything is all rightβ. That, however, is a trick π€‘
π΅οΈββοΈ Unlike Telegram, Signal doesn't allow researchers to make sure that their GitHub code is the same code that is used in the Signal app run on users' iPhones. Signal refused to add reproducible builds for iOS, closing a GitHub request from the community. And WhatsApp doesn't even publish the code of its apps, so all their talk about βprivacyβ is an even more obvious circus trickπ€

π‘ Telegram is the only massively popular messaging service that allows everyone to make sure that all of its apps indeed use the same open source code that is published on Github. For the past ten years, Telegram Secret Chats have remained the only popular method of communication that is verifiably private πͺ

Short answer: no
Long answer: noooooooooo
Detailed explanation: No, because definitely not.
If they think it's unfeasible (we don't have the tech currently to do it on a large scale) they should at least explain their reasons
No. It's mostly smoke and mirrors. Why are fossil fuel companies so interested in this technology? They use the captured CO2 to extract additional oil from wells. It's just another distraction to avoid the elephant in the room and continue business as usual.
The answer is No
This user is surely negative

I'm a chemist working on the (electro)conversion of CO2 into economically valuable products. In my opinion, making this process profitable would be the only way to convince big companies to significantly invest in the process. I can tell you that we are far from making the process economically viable
Edit: to clarify, I'm not defending that we should prioritize the economy. I'm saying that that's what policy makers/ big companies prioritize, so it won't happen until the process is profitable, which is far from now. We thus rely on different approaches to mitigate climate change
A sensible comment
Bonus on doomering about millions dying in India during heat waves just a few years from now
We are going to have a heat wave combined with power failure that kills millions by the end of the decade.
You get a wet bulb temp weather system that settles over a city for a couple days, and the power system goes down.
The opening chapter of the novel "The Ministry for the Future" is a description of just this scenario, and it is hands down one of the most horrifying things I have ever read.
Yup that chapter was sickeningly realistic
The heat wave deaths are then followed by a massive pandemic as millions of corpses liquefy in the heat. The whole city would be a biohazard for a long time
I just started this book yesterday and this post made me do a double take. I had a moment of like, βwaitβ¦that's too realβ
!bookworms JUST LIKE KSR THE MINISTRY FOR THE FUTURE!

They say Etsy's on a death spiral, so the time to make posts about Etsy is now.
You ever type "curse" into Etsy?
Sometimes this kind of witchshit shows up on Etsy, regardless of if you're looking for it. It's way too common
Let's look into the $80 digital download "death spell"
π DISCLAIMER π
LEGAL DISCLAIMER (ETSY MAKES ME PUT THIS HERE):
Etsy requires me to state that all spells are for entertainment purposes only.
I do not offer refunds or exchange. All sales are final.
In keeping with both Etsy's guidelines and the law, tarot readings, spells and other paranormal items may only be sold for entertainment purposes. We frame all of the spell-related digital items we sell as βspell kitsβ which help guide you to explore manifestation, this is a tangible digital product. In addition, we are not responsible for anything that may or may not occur.
This person paid probably $100 to have a witch curse them into being a millionare
why are there so many
when you search "blessing" instead of curse
There's not so much, and most things are self serving. Bless your own career. Bless ur house. Get a soulmate blessing (which will make your soulmate extra attracted to you).
and a bible verse about blessings... a lot of listings for "blessing" are just bible passages on canvases
The bracelets are this thing where you're supposed to use each pearl to knowledge a different blessing in your life.
...aint many witches and wizards selling services to bless a random target.
Im an r-slur but they're evil or something.
This is listed under the tag "blessing"
"Win custody, avoid punishment, remove legal stress"
"navigating LAWSUITS, avoiding PENALTIES, and even sidestepping SPEEDING TICKETS."
Not seeing many spells for blessing an arbitrary target, even though there is hundreds for killing and cursing them (which get tons of sales)
"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. " - John 10:10
