On Its 30th Birthday, Section 230 Remains The Lynchpin For Users’ Speech
(They claim they want to protect kids online but that's bullshit. They want to shut down all forms of speech they don't like specifically anyone talking about Israel committing genocide, our turn to fascism and perhaps even discussion of the Epstein files.)
from Electronic Freedom Foundation
For thirty years, internet users have benefited from a key federal law that allows everyone to express themselves, find community, organize politically, and participate in society. Section 230, which protects internet users’ speech by protecting the online intermediaries we rely on, is the legal support that sustains the internet as we know it.
Yet as Section 230 turns 30 this week, there are bipartisan proposals in Congress to either repeal or sunset the law. These proposals seize upon legitimate concerns with the harmful and anti-competitive practices of the largest tech companies, but then misdirect that anger toward Section 230.
But rolling back or eliminating Section 230 will not stop invasive corporate surveillance that harms all internet users. Killing Section 230 won’t end to the dominance of the current handful of large tech companies—it would cement their monopoly power.
The current proposals also ignore a crucial question: what legal standard should replace Section 230? The bills provide no answer, refusing to grapple with the tradeoffs inherent in making online intermediaries liable for users’ speech...

Joseph Gordon-Levitt Goes To Washington DC, Gets Section 230 Completely Backwards
(Rewriting Section 230 is a key part of Project 2025 fascist agenda.)
from Tech Dirt
You may have heard last week that actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt went to Washington DC and gave a short speech at an event put on by Senator Dick Durbin calling for the sunsetting of Section 230. It’s a short speech, and it gets almost everything wrong about Section 230.
Let me first say that, while I’m sure some will rush to jump in and say “oh, it’s just some Hollywood actor guy, jumping into something he doesn’t understand,” I actually think that’s a little unfair about JGL. Very early on he started his own (very interesting, very creative) user-generated content platform called HitRecord, and over the years I’ve followed many of his takes on copyright and internet policy and while I don’t always agree, I do believe that he does legitimately take this stuff seriously and actually wants to understand the nuances (unlike some).
But it appears he’s fallen for some not just bad advice, but blatantly incorrect advice about this. He’s also posted a followup video where he claims to explain his position in more detail, but it only makes things worse, because it compounds the blatant factual errors that underpin his entire argument...

The 'bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, Iran' Protest for Iranian Regime Change in L.A.
by Scott Creighton
Yesterday there was a demonstration in Los Angeles of a couple thousand people who seem dedicated to pushing America to war with Iran at this particular moment in time. Why not? It's not their kids and brothers and fathers who will be dying.
Google says only 0.4% of the active American armed services are Jewish while 2.4% of our population are. Hmmm. Seems kinda low. Yet they are ready, willing and able to send us to war with a nation as well armed as Iran all because they want little Israel to dominate the Middle East.
At the Global Day of Fascist Scumbags demonstration are a combination of fascist Shah-loving fake Muslims from Iran along with a smattering of fascist Mileikowsky-loving Jewish folks who put the interests of Israel above all else.
Years and years ago, a 'Republican Senator and 2008 presidential contender John McCain joked about bombing Iran by singing "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, anyway, ah" to the tune of the Beach Boys' "Barbara Ann" in April 2007. He made the comment in response to a voter's question about military action against Iran during a campaign event in South Carolina' NPR 2007
McCain, a neocon songbird and noted liar, was picked to lose to the chosen one, Barack H. Obama and since the nation was decidedly opposed to more unnecessary aggression in the Middle East, when John did his little warmongering routine, he was sealing his fate and ours for the next 8 years.
McCain was famous for hanging out with actual Nazis in Ukraine and wanted ISIS terrorists in Syria.
'In late 2013, during the Euromaidan protests in Kyiv, then-Senator John McCain was photographed with Oleh Tyahnybok, the leader of the far-right nationalist Svoboda party. Tyahnybok and the Svoboda party have been accused of anti-Semitic and neo-Nazi views'
It is argued that the image above does not show Abu Bakr al Baghdadi and that may or may not be so. However, what is not argued is the fact that the other men seen with McCain in 2013 and pictured above are leaders of the Free Syrian Army, a collection of former al Qaeda, ISIS and al Nusra proxy terrorists we trained and used in Syria to destabilize the country making ready for regime change. Ergo, McCain hung out with terrorists in Syria. The images of him with Tyahnybok speak for themselves.
Here are a couple of quotes from the ABC story about the event yesterday:

New Evidence Shows they Secretly EXTRACTED Epstein from MCC in Black Van
They took him to another facility before the M.E.'s office and fingerprinted the body and prepped him and THEN took his body double to the coroners office. This is all highly illegal. Jeffrey Epstein is not dead and is still abusing kids.

Palestine Action wins landmark legal victory against UK government crackdown
from PressTV
Britain’s High Court has dealt a significant legal blow to the UK government’s attempt to silence outspoken support for Palestine, ruling that the Home Office’s 2025 decision to ban the pro-Palestinian campaign group Palestine Action as a terrorist organization was unlawful.
The landmark judgment, delivered on Friday in London, vindicates critics who warned that the proscription was an excessive infringement on basic civil liberties and a dangerous misuse of anti-terrorism laws.
The group, founded in 2020 to challenge British support for Israeli military invasions and corporate links to the occupation, was added to the UK’s extremist list in July 2025 under the Terrorism Act 2000.
That designation equated Palestine Action with internationally proscribed terrorist organizations, making it a criminal offence to be a member or to publicly show support — punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
Supporters and civil liberties advocates were outraged at the time, arguing that the ban criminalized peaceful protest and solidarity with Palestinians rather than any genuine threat to public safety.
Government critics pointed out that actions by the group — such as blocking entrances, spraying paint at defense contractor sites, and staging direct actions targeting British complicity in arms production — were political acts, not terrorism, and should be dealt with through ordinary criminal law where necessary.
In her ruling, Judge Dame Victoria Sharp and her fellow High Court judges found that the government’s proscription lacked proper justification and disproportionately encroached on rights to freedom of expression and assembly...

Epstein jail guards used 'fake body' to trick media waiting outside the prison while paedophile's real corpse was loaded into van 'unnoticed', files claim
(Epstein was taken in the black van to another facility before the ME's office where they took his fingerprints and claimed they were the prints of the body they used as his.)
from Daily Mail
Jail guards overseeing Jeffrey Epstein used a decoy body to mislead reporters gathered outside the prison after his death, while his real corpse was secretly removed in a separate vehicle, newly unsealed files claim.
According to an internal memo, a jail supervisor told FBI agents that staff at Manhattan's Metropolitan Correctional Center staged the ruse amid an intense media presence following Epstein's apparent suicide in 2019.
The files allege that boxes and sheets were arranged to resemble a human body and loaded into a white van marked as belonging to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, prompting reporters to follow it as it drove away.
Unbeknown to the media, Epstein's actual body was instead placed into a black vehicle that left the facility 'unnoticed,' allowing officers to transport the corpse privately.
The alleged deception was carried out after an official warned guards about the large number of journalists gathered outside the jail and said he would arrive at the loading dock with a separate black vehicle to remove the body...
... Other sections of the records describe how officers were stationed at a secure facility linked to the prison, where Epstein's body was guarded while fingerprinting and other procedures were carried out ahead of its transfer...

Gallup will no longer track presidential approval ratings after nearly 90 years
(The racist, fascist, woman-hating moronic dictator is so hated by the people of America, the establishment have decided to stop keeping track of it. This is beyond Orwellian.)
from USA Today
Gallup will no longer measure presidential approval, the analytics firm confirmed on Feb. 11.
Founded by George Gallup in 1935, the Washington, DC-based management company began tracking the president's job performance 88 years ago.
Gallup told USA TODAY it will no longer publish "favorability ratings of political figures," a decision it said "reflects an evolution in how Gallup focuses its public research and thought leadership."
A statistician and founder of the American Institute of Public Opinion, Gallup first sent pollsters across the United States during the Depression era to ask people whether they approved or disapproved of how the nation's commander-in-chief was handling his job...

9 Killed and 25 Injured in Shooting at School and Home in Canada
(Six years ago a guy 'dressed as a mounty' killed 22 people and Canada got the gun grabbing law their elites had wanted for a while. There are still 1+ million assault 'type' weapons in the hands of everyday Canadians to be grabbed though. Perhaps this will put pressure on government to finish the job. Notice, the shooter is found dead 'by his own hand' and someone at his residence is also killed. This is fitting into the pattern. All we need now is a push for gun grabbing and no motive.)
from the NYT
... In 2020 in response to the worst mass shooting in Canadian history — when a rampage by a man disguised as a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer left 23 people dead — the federal government took a number of steps to overhaul the gun laws. Among the measures was a ban on 1,500 types of assault-style weapons that was later widened to include freezing handgun sales and expanding the list of banned firearms.
A national gun buyback program for military-style assault rifles was also included, which has proved politically divisive and logistically challenging. There are roughly 1.3 million registered firearms in Canada, according to police data.
The police have not released the shooter’s identity, details about the firearms used or how they were obtained. Superintendent Floyd said the suspected shooter found dead in the school was the same person mentioned in a police alert at around 1:20 p.m., which described the person as a “female in a dress with brown hair.”...
