– New World Next Week –
I like that term: “Doom Porn”. I’m glad James is trying to help guide the alternative media towards reporting the facts. It helps us all. So often, I see “sensationalism” pollute the waters and bring a poor image to the alternative media, which in turn makes it more difficult when informing “normies” about an issue.
New Zealand – Dang! I just don’t know what to think about that country.
Dr. Paul Connett and other anti-fluoride folks have been over there trying to handle the government on this fluoride debate. Corbett last interviewed Paul Connett in March.

The New Zealand media tried to stifle the facts when interviewing Connett.

Airport Searches – ANECDOTE
Back in the mid 1980’s, I was dating my future wife (who at that time looked much like the actress Jaimie Alexander). Full of dating adventure, she was going to fly out of Dallas-Ft Worth to see me in another state where I was running a large, temporary women’s fashion sale.
But evidently, her purse set off something with security. Grinning, security pulled out the novelty handcuffs and said, “Miss, we can’t let you take these on the plane, but you can pick them back up when you return.” She never did pick them up on her return.
re: New Zealand – a brief history for you:
https://www.jacobinmag.com/2017/03/new-zealand-neoliberalism-inequality-welfare-state-tax-haven/
Spoiler: When the Economist praises the government as “out- Thatchering Mrs Thatcher”, and the likes of:
Powerful neoliberal institutions like the IMF, the Asian Development Bank, and the World Bank exported New Zealand’s grand “experiment,” …
you know something doesn’t pass the smell test.
Thanks heartruth!
EXCERPT
…In New Zealand, it’s the idea that a benevolent, liberal state will look after its people.
This self-image can be traced back to the period between 1890 and 1920, when the country became known as the “social laboratory of the world.”….
Interesting reading. I am of German decent across the different grandparents and their parents. Evidently, my great, great grandfather Myer immigrated to southern Kansas in the late 1800’s from New Zealand, hiding his money sewn in a mattress on the boat. I guess he had enough of the ‘great experiment’.
Interesting, you almost could have been a Kiwi!
You still can, if you’re rich enough 🙂

Thing is, this is not a black and white situation. There were decades through which generations of New Zealanders were (generally speaking) beneficiaries of many aspects of this ‘grand experiment’. Yes, even this needs to be put it into its historical context (e.g. colonization, etc).
But the problem came when the wolf skinned the sheep and put on its clothing… (no pun intended 🙂 ). As the writer states, there’s still this perception of a benevolent liberal social democracy. Basically that horse has well and truly bolted and the stable door has long since stopped swinging in the wind.
I’ve been thinking about ‘what happened’ (hindsight and all that). Perhaps the overarching picture could be one of a massive transfer of centralized ‘control’ from the state to …? corporations?
Electricity is a good example. Most of NZ’s power is hydro. This resource literally falls from the sky, and yet:
http://www.geoffbertram.com/fileadmin/publications/How%20neoliberalism%20doubled%20the%20price%20of%20electricity_01.pdf
I also am aware of the current global context, and I realise that there’s no ‘going back’. Hence I am reading/viewing TCR content on voluntarism etc with an open mind and genuine interest.
Correction:
I inadvertantly conflated the decades-earlier social reforms with the controlled demolition in the 1980s with my use of the term ‘grand experiment’.
To clarify: Kiwis benefited from the earlier social reforms (which were seen as experimental i.e. ‘social laboratory’), but the ‘grand experiment’ of the 1980s referred to in the article (aka ‘Rogernomics) was the wolf in sheep’s clothing!
Defending Privacy at the U.S. Border: A Guide for Travelers Carrying Digital Devices
https://www.eff.org/document/defending-privacy-us-border-guide-travelers-carrying-digital-devices
Mines are an incredible pain in the ass. Cheap to lay down, very expensive and dangerous to pick up. There are still some areas that are mine infested in this area, some 20 years after the war.
A simple solution for the $5000 dollar fine would be to store everything you have on the phone (to a novelty USB drive, for instance) and then reset the phone to factory defaults.
OR on rooted phones one may perform a full nandroid backup followed by a full wipe (factory reset.) ‘There you are “officer” teehee’ *hands him a completely empty phone*
Recovering from backup could take just minutes. You could recover during the flight, then format again for boarding off lol
Some ideas from the top of my head:
1. have data stored on a hidden encrypted partition on SD card, tucked in a 64 SD card pouch, all of which are full with suspiciously named 1kb files. For extra meanness, each file could be password protected zip file. One SD card could contain all passwords to the files, in binary form three bytes shifted to the left lol
“yes, officer, you take this binary number, apply ror 3 to it, then convert it to hexadecimal and ta-da…. what do you mean it’s not working, are you sure you applied ror 3… wait, was it rol 3???”
2. I often toyed with the idea of developing a really REALLY annoying UI. For instance, an Android UI which requires a ten digit password to be entered between every two screens? Check.
“no, officer, I can’t turn that damn thing off, it’s my company’s security requirement, but by all means, do go through all of my data”
What fun! Make them rue the day!
Important data can be put on a micro-SD.
Just remove it from your phone/PC and put it in your wherever. I mean your reading book.
What if you have USB sticks?
Do they just insert them into their computers?
From a hackers perspective, that would be fun!
They will never forget the moment they used my prepared USB 🙂
You can also just drop them on the ground.
So much fun potential. They wouldn’t know what hit them.
zyxzevn says: They will never forget the moment they used my prepared USB
Yay for psychopaths in power who just never, ever quit.
Why would they though, when they get away with everything they do, regardless of how sickening, unjust or criminal it may be?
For any of you travelers out there, Micro SD cards are very easy to hide.
Until you arrive at your destination, hide your real card and keep a dummy card in the phone that contains nothing of interest (or, if you’re feeling saucy, a couple hundred blank files named go f**k yourself).

Think about it another way.
We are told by James and many others that all our smartphone data is vulnerable to the spying eyes and ears of the NSA, Google et al., even when we turn our phones off.
Do you really think that taking out your SD cards at the airport during a security check will keep your data safe from the prying eyes and ears of these giants?
Your flight is complete. You have returned the SD card to your phone. Now what?
If Presidents can hijack your phone with messages, their spy networks can likely download anything they want from your phones/computers etc. when you put your SD cards/drives back inside them, using chip back doors etc.
I seem to remember that “good news” can be put in these comments for consideration.

Sounds like good news to me.
Thanks
That does sound good. I just don’t get what’s decentralized about it at first glance.
Actually, I liked the shout out to Bruce best (and who the heck is Bruce?!). It took me back to my teen years, when that was one of my favorite songs. The video was one hoot of a dance compilation! Loved it!
Hey, better late than never. Those ladies are great, not to mention completely new to me (can you tell I don’t get out much? 😉 )!
I’m a fan! Scrolling through their songs, I found they did a great cover of Gerry Rafferty’s “Right Down the Line”. Naturally, I have to post each because they’re both great:
Rafferty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzSXSo3dTHU
Lucius: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_FPDXFzZ4Q
Maybe James simply didn’t know that about short links. Not too long ago, I didn’t either.
In a world full of censorship, print friendly versions are useful. I have handed plenty of information out on the street in paper form and have had to use short versions for references. It is always a compromise.
Ideally, the screen version and print friendly version would show the short URLs but the actual links would be to the original URLs, however I guess that would require custom programming.
And maybe God-le would rank the site lower because of it? (difference between actual and displayed content)
Perhaps an app that shows a “battery %1 charged” logo full screen until some secret button combo is pressed would be the solution the the digital strip search?
People who work at airports don’t strike me as being too bright!
