Germany's Bundesrat, the upper house of parliament, backed a bill to criminalize the denial of Israel's right to exist on Friday, a motion that constitutional experts said could jeopardize freedom of expression.

According to the bill, anyone denying Israel's right to exist or calling for its abolition would be punished with a prison sentence of up to five years under the regulation. The bill will be examined by the Bundestag, the lower house of parliament, after its summer recess.

I came across this while doing some cursed bitbanging design to cut down on the number of GPIO pins needed by using shift registers. Thought it was very interesting, with the FIFOs and the CPU halting reads and writes.

Seriously, weekly I restart the laptop to clear out the cache and ram and whatnot and from restart to launch then opening chrome it's like a hot minute tops. Meanwhile back on my old hdd laptop a restart was a 10-15 min affair.

Can we deny that putting messages on missiles is legally a meme now? We obviously cannot. Thank you for the assenting nods. Take care.

Director of the Security and Intelligence Service of Moldova, Alexandru Musteata, said that Russia has begun to use the video platform TikTok more actively to spread propaganda.

...

He stated that Russia is already preparing to interfere in the upcoming elections in Moldova and has intensified its disinformation campaigns, as well as its attempts to influence public opinion.

He added that while the messaging app Telegram was previously the main channel for spreading Russian propaganda, the video platform TikTok has now become the primary tool.

In addition, campaigns to manipulate public opinion on Facebook have resumed, and temporary websites created specifically to spread false information have appeared.

According to Musteata, the goal of these campaigns is to undermine citizens’ trust in democratic institutions.

“Campaigns are being carried out to discredit the army, the security sector, law enforcement agencies, and the justice system. The goal is to lower the level of trust so that by the next election cycle, citizens will begin to doubt whether state institutions are functioning effectively,” explained the director of the SIS.

The European Commission ... has approved definitive anti-dumping duties on imports of certain tires from China used on passenger cars and light trucks and buses.

...

The duties range from 4.3% to 45.3%, depending on the manufacturer. The Commission said the measures are intended to offset the effects of dumping and help ensure fair competition for tire makers operating within the EU.

...

The measures were adopted under the European Union’s trade defense framework, which permits anti-dumping duties when imported goods are found to be priced below their normal value and to have caused harm to producers in the bloc.

The decision comes amid broader trade frictions between Brussels and Beijing, with both sides pursuing trade-related investigations and other measures affecting a range of industrial products.

Has the deal been fulfilled even if it was only a week after?

The question is purely academic. I am not having technical issues and I am NOT asking for technical support.

I understand that technically, my ISP had probably choked the previous port.

I also know that some nation states, organizations or other actors - such as ISPs - block Tor connections for whatever (political?) reasons.

What I don't understand is what legal grounds they have to do this. I have read the Terms of Service. Twice. And there is nothing explicit about having specific ports blocked for whatever reason. It does say that they have the right to limit my bandwidth if they deem that my usage is impacting their other customers' connection negatively. Perhaps they somehow force it into this paragraph? As in, according to them, running a Tor relay doesn't count as "normal use"?

If you have any experience or knowledge on the matter, please advise. 😊
