“A video shared thousands of times on a Chinese (#CCP) #SocialMedia platform claiming a re-elected #Albanese government would adopt “the far-left agenda” of the #Greens and potentially seize vacant homes was created by a member of a #WeChat group campaigning for the Liberal party in a marginal Melbourne seat.

The six-minute video, narrated by a woman who refers to herself as #AuntieGuoer, also claims any minority Albanese government that might rely on the Greens would “crackdown on the #MiddleClass” and lead to the #decline of “traditional #SocialStructures”.”

I see this is happening in the seat of #Aston and past Liberal seat of a political favourite of mine, #TudgyFudge 🤪🤣☺️ Given the subject matter I’d lay a bet this is the work of ex AFP Officer, #SandraBourke and #MatthewSheahan who now has removed all biographic links. Why?

Nur mal was ausprobieren. Daher hat die Chefin von eBay Kleinanzeigen diese Blindstich-Nähmaschine gekauft. Paket gerade ausgepackt. Ein Wunderwerk der Technik. Alles voller Öl, ziemlich ranzig das Teil. Sie funktioniert nicht.
Der Hersteller Sewkey sitzt in China. Jetzt schreibe ich gerade einer Belinda bei dieser Firma, die mich bittet, #WeChat zu installieren. Nur so könne sie mir das User Manual schicken. Nicht auf meinem Handy! 🙄

The #GeekProblem: Why Open Development Is Stuck in a Dead End

It’s no sin to have to submit to the #dotcons overlords—we all do it, whether we like it or not. Just recently, I found myself installing that vile spyware known as #WeChat because this was the only way to talk to the people I needed to talk to. That bitter swipe to hide the app from view brought a momentary sense of agency, but the reality remains: we are still too often failing at building out the #openweb that normal people find useful The fundamental question is: why? It's too […]

Катастрофа, которой не было. День, когда интернет исчез. Как это может произойти и что будет дальше?

[13 июля 20ХХ года | 08:23] Снова не услышали будильник и уже опаздываете на работу. Тянетесь за телефоном, экран разблокирован — но ничего не происходит. Wi-Fi мёртв, как и мобильный интернет. Банковские приложения не открываются, на кассах супермаркетов — хаос, люди не могут оплатить покупки. Интернет исчез. Насовсем.

Misinformation was rife as the wildfires spread across Los Angeles last month, and that wasn’t just happening in English language media. For @thexylom, Aorui Pi explains how platforms like WeChat and RedNote served as a vector for fake news, which may have made life harder for Chinese immigrants living in fire-affected areas.

> any kind of "everything app" should be seen as captivity

When I lived in China I found I couldn't socially exist without their everything app; WeChat. Even putting aside the privacy horrorshow, the power TenCent have because every other company effectively has to transact through WC is terrifying.

When FarceBook tried to do the Libra/ Diem payment integration, it was obvious who they were emulating. Very glad it failed.
