A Move Towards Generalised Internet Surveillance in France?

Many states are launching preemptive attacks to abolish privacy rights before people get motivated to defend them.

Facebook is a tax dodger.

Of course, it's not the only one, but that is no excuse.

Thugs in London punched student protesters and pushed them to the ground.

One student leader said he thinks this was a planned tactic intended to pre-emptively intimidate other students who might potentially join protests. Instead it inspired a "cops off campus" protest.

Suspended student protest leaders in Sussex University say they refuse to surrender to the privatization of the university.

Geoengineering could lead to war between countries that have different needs for how to engineer the Earth's climate.

Any geoengineering method that aims to affect temperature directly will not do anything to stop ocean acidification due to dissolved CO2. This threatens to destroy all coral reefs, along with all the other species that depend on coral reefs. The result could easily be the loss of most of the sea food that a billion humans depend on.

In experiments, CO2 affected the behavior of some species of fish too -- they ceased to hide from predators. That could wipe them out.
