Already 10 years of idiocracy thanks to marketing techniques applied to surveillance by Gafams, Donald Trump, Peter thiel/Musk ans batxs and selling people lives thanks to digitalisation of their social lives...same in EU. Can someone still stop this madness and get back to something BEING JUST "COMMON SENSE"?

This is near future war. Get prepared to it, just in case it would be used by autocratic government against either its own population (specific target profile) or another nation that would not agree with their approach of society...

Well that was a good tv show, prophetic, no? I really hope all this madness in the US and around the world will not be implemented in my country by some fool:
"The personal, as everyone’s so fucking fond of saying, is political. So if some idiot politician, some power player, tries to execute policies that harm you or those you care about, take it personally. Get angry. The Machinery of Justice will not serve you here – it is slow and cold, and it is theirs, hardware and soft-. Only the little people suffer at the hands of Justice; the creatures of power slide from under it with a wink and a grin. If you want justice, you will have to claw it from them. Make it personal. Do as much damage as you can. Get your message across. That way, you stand a better chance of being taken seriously next time. Of being considered dangerous. And make no mistake about this: being taken seriously, being considered dangerous marks the difference - the only difference in their eyes - between players and little people. Players they will make deals with. Little people they liquidate. And time and again they cream your liquidation, your displacement, your torture and brutal execution with the ultimate insult that it’s just business, it’s politics, it’s the way of the world, it’s a tough life and that it’s nothing personal. Well, fuck them. Make it personal."

Wherever you are in the western world, save the data of online resources showing the scientific reality on your offline disks, just in case some Orwellian government would try to rewrite the scientific and factual reality for their own purposes. Also archive on offline media the DVD/Blueray/books you paid for, so that your children and grand children would have a glimpse of the authors that were witnesses of the liberty people had for a time.

Reading Stuart Russel -human compatible. AI and the problem of control. Page 30 talking about Nash equilibrium and page 31 the tragedy of the commons (William Lloyd/Gareth Harding) : absent of any social or legal constraints the only Nash equilibrium amongst selfish agents is to consume as much as possible leading to rapid collapse of the common ressource. Imho, this even accelerates if profit is higher with more rare resources, because of greed. Avoiding this starts by communicating. Imho, gafam algorithms are desintermediating our private communication channels and disrupting messages to ensure that no self organization could come to ensure that the common resource could replenish and not become rare. See some big actors with regards to water. They have to dismantle the state as it was the only possible (light) opposition to making resources more and more rare to boost their profit. AI based consultancy is an extension of efforts of big 4 like consultancy, ensuring that individuals and competitors actions get more and more predictable to ease the work of prediction engines like blackrock/palantir and have immediate information through AI prompt of the current questions that could indicate new behaviors or concerns. Making people go to AI rather than going to books or other people, suppress the communication between people, make concerns more traceable, and ensures no self organization by people that would not go to what is predicted by the algorithms of all these companies. This is far worst than Orwell. Control of people by prediction engines, AI answers biaised towards the prediction engine to influence the human behavior and feedback to the prediction engine and algorithmic fascist profit driven social network analysis to guide/suppress communication between people both on the internet and in the real world (surveillance iots) was NOT part of the initial plan of the internet, cybersecurity or biologically inspired neural networks/genetic algorithm research. Look for non Gafams/batx intermediated communication, including for operating systems. Make the information for prediction engine costly to obtain to disrupt their democracy disruption and generalized control on each of US. The more costly for them, the better for democracy, for civilized society and for us. Make winning costly for profit driven barbarian using our information and relationship networks analyzed by AI and algorithm to create a dystopia.

So deepseek shows that big money, big mouth and big size does not matter after all. Intelligence, low profile, humble behavior and hard work with modest financial investment can beat "big tech". Wake up Europe and refuse investments by investors that are not pure EU. And do not be naive, US collects even more data via their OS that deepseek could collect via the browser and prompts. So, via a vpn + tor and a temp email address and no personal or sensitive information used for prompts should be OK to test its capabilities 😜😋😋😋

If he wants war with EU by invading one of EU nation state, he will get it. We could lose it, but we will not be cowards in front of a fascist trying to own our EU democraties lands. We will go far beyond resistance this time, even if it costs all we have. So Trump could be exactly like Putin and his deal with Putin, without any imagination, could be of course to get back to the 1980s situation of control of EU with the same frontiers. Maybe also an "Ukraine" in exchange of "greenland". As EU citizens, We must not expect any help from that guy, only treachery around signed treaties with EU countries after WWII. Buy only EU arms and urgently reindustralize for EU owned heavy industries, EU owned Os/cloud, EU secret services and EU AI ans go out of US clouds and OSes in a pre war planned economy fashion, just in case of treason of current treaties. And stop buying his teslas and his secured satellites communications. These are control instruments of your life by an undemocratic guy. Rebuild now and stop complaining!!!

Back to the roots:
A Cypherpunk's Manifesto
by Eric Hughes
Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age. Privacy is not secrecy. A private matter is something one doesn't want the whole world to know, but a secret matter is something one doesn't want anybody to know. Privacy is the power to selectively reveal oneself to the world.
If two parties have some sort of dealings, then each has a memory of their interaction. Each party can speak about their own memory of this; how could anyone prevent it? One could pass laws against it, but the freedom of speech, even more than privacy, is fundamental to an open society; we seek not to restrict any speech at all. If many parties speak together in the same forum, each can speak to all the others and aggregate together knowledge about individuals and other parties. The power of electronic communications has enabled such group speech, and it will not go away merely because we might want it to.
Since we desire privacy, we must ensure that each party to a transaction have knowledge only of that which is directly necessary for that transaction. Since any information can be spoken of, we must ensure that we reveal as little as possible. In most cases personal identity is not salient. When I purchase a magazine at a store and hand cash to the clerk, there is no need to know who I am. When I ask my electronic mail provider to send and receive messages, my provider need not know to whom I am speaking or what I am saying or what others are saying to me; my provider only need know how to get the message there and how much I owe them in fees. When my identity is revealed by the underlying mechanism of the transaction, I have no privacy. I cannot here selectively reveal myself; I must always reveal myself.
Therefore, privacy in an open society requires anonymous transaction systems. Until now, cash has been the primary such system. An anonymous transaction system is not a secret transaction system. An anonymous system empowers individuals to reveal their identity when desired and only when desired; this is the essence of privacy.
Privacy in an open society also requires cryptography. If I say something, I want it heard only by those for whom I intend it. If the content of my speech is available to the world, I have no privacy. To encrypt is to indicate the desire for privacy, and to encrypt with weak cryptography is to indicate not too much desire for privacy. Furthermore, to reveal one's identity with assurance when the default is anonymity requires the cryptographic signature.
We cannot expect governments, corporations, or other large, faceless organizations to grant us privacy out of their beneficence. It is to their advantage to speak of us, and we should expect that they will speak. To try to prevent their speech is to fight against the realities of information. Information does not just want to be free, it longs to be free. Information expands to fill the available storage space. Information is Rumor's younger, stronger cousin; Information is fleeter of foot, has more eyes, knows more, and understands less than Rumor.
We must defend our own privacy if we expect to have any. We must come together and create systems which allow anonymous transactions to take place. People have been defending their own privacy for centuries with whispers, darkness, envelopes, closed doors, secret handshakes, and couriers. The technologies of the past did not allow for strong privacy, but electronic technologies do.
We the Cypherpunks are dedicated to building anonymous systems. We are defending our privacy with cryptography, with anonymous mail forwarding systems, with digital signatures, and with electronic money.
Cypherpunks write code. We know that someone has to write software to defend privacy, and since we can't get privacy unless we all do, we're going to write it. We publish our code so that our fellow Cypherpunks may practice and play with it. Our code is free for all to use, worldwide. We don't much care if you don't approve of the software we write. We know that software can't be destroyed and that a widely dispersed system can't be shut down.
Cypherpunks deplore regulations on cryptography, for encryption is fundamentally a private act. The act of encryption, in fact, removes information from the public realm. Even laws against cryptography reach only so far as a nation's border and the arm of its violence. Cryptography will ineluctably spread over the whole globe, and with it the anonymous transactions systems that it makes possible.
For privacy to be widespread it must be part of a social contract. People must come and together deploy these systems for the common good. Privacy only extends so far as the cooperation of one's fellows in society. We the Cypherpunks seek your questions and your concerns and hope we may engage you so that we do not deceive ourselves. We will not, however, be moved out of our course because some may disagree with our goals.
The Cypherpunks are actively engaged in making the networks safer for privacy. Let us proceed together apace.
Onward.
