The Iranian regime A month since the onset of the conflict, the Iranian regime is affected, yet remains resilient and, seemingly paradoxically, optimistic…
In a move that underscores an increasingly visible ideological coordination in the Eastern European information space, the pro-Russian and revisionist politician Victoria Furtună has launched a campaign in the Republic of Moldova focused on the pillars of “food, water, energy”. The theme is not an original one, but represents an almost identical adoption of the slogan heavily promoted in Romania by Călin Georgescu, a politician known for his pro-Russian and ultra-nationalist positions, writes g4media.ro. The convergence between the two is not limited to words alone, but indicates a common strategy of capturing the dissatisfied electorate through apparently vital themes, yet…

Without a federal law similar to Europe’s GDPR, the collected data circulates without transparency and is already being reused for purposes far beyond the initial mandate – from deportations to reproductive health investigations, writes Live Science. For decades, cars have dictated urban planning in the United States. Few could have predicted that one day these would also function as surveillance nodes. In thousands of cities across the USA, automatic license plate readers…
