More and more we are seeing these stories collide in ways where our information diets are so divergently extreme that people can’t even agree on any shared understandings, let alone cause and effect. These collisions are a key feature of Musk’s X algo, where Wall capital managers describe the effects on tariffs on the production of t-shirts as an AI image PFP responds that American’s will gladly pay extra for a T-shirt given our newfound DeFi yield. Our stories are splintering.

One thing that I keep coming back to is how the internet is fundamentally changing how we attempt coherence in a web of increasing global interdependency. These stories are told by sign-spinning Presidents; by podcasters with Shurr microphones; through the endless cultural image regurgitation on Instagram; by journalists; by researchers ; by poets. (It increasingly seems seems like this is our new descending order of mass reach.)

imagine being a time traveller from the 1999 WTO protests and trying to understand 2025 tariffs. Teleporting personas through time is fun. But it’s ultimately deceptive. https://jamesbeck.mirror.xyz/yuyKLCxMXdyqtOrjaQRjRDdeziQ51Se3PZrRYq9Zrv0

I remember reading this years ago and feeling like TG was the most secure given they weren't compromised by the US or Russia (the stories of Pavel would be greeted by the FBI when he'd visit california for the google dev conference. But my opinions have changed dramatically given what went down last year https://thebaffler.com/salvos/the-crypto-keepers-levine

reminder, even though whatsapp uses the signal protocol, they collect metadata -- who you talk to, timestamps, locations. And more importantly, if you backup via iCloud or Google, those messages are unencrypted and can be used for FBI investigations.

With a heavy heart am sharing a statement from Drop Site about the killing of our colleague Hossam Shabat. Hossam was a reporter in Gaza who filed many dispatches for us during the war. This morning we received the terrible news that he had been killed in a targeted airstrike on his car. The killing came after numerous threats from the Israeli military directed against him during the period that he was reporting. He was only 23 years old. https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/statement-israel-killing-hossam-shabat-journalist-gaza
