“When his homegrown remote control app started talking to DJI’s servers, it wasn’t just one vacuum cleaner that replied. Roughly 7,000 of them, all around the world, began treating Azdoufal like their boss.”
The DJI Romo robovac had security so poor, this man remotely accessed thousands of them
DJI may have fixed it now.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.

Now we’ve got mumps rolling up.

Expect more.

This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

As others have noted, it’s a Bad Idea to go exploring this on your own computer.

But also, some national-level politicians (cc @wyden.senate.gov) should sit in a room with some judges and sort this out.
For those who missed it, Reddit users have figured out that many of the blank PDF files in the Epstein files are actually videos when you change the extension to .mov or .avi.

That's how much they care about protecting victims.

It’s clear what this is about. Forcibly preventing abortion access, often for children who are rape victims.

Even those who’ve worked in Trump’s “unaccompanied children program” the 1st time around are calling this what it is.

A citizen yells at ICE from five feet away, gets sprayed, tackled, loses hearing aid, injures elbow, is held for hours, then released into the cold without his phone (which he still doesn't have). Others have lost ID and money. Because ICE's feelings are hurt.
A 76-year-old veteran and nurse was tackled and detained at the site of Alex Pretti's killing. Agents told him his phone was evidence in an investigation into him assaulting an officer.
