At Sunday’s Super Bowl, Ring advertised “Search Party,” a cute, horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for a lost dog: “One post of a dog’s photo in the Ring app starts outdoor cameras looking for a match,” Ring founder Jamie Siminoff said in the Super Bowl commercial. “Search Party from Ring uses AI to help families find lost dogs.” Onscreen, an AI-powered box forms around a missing dog: “Milo Match,” it says. “Since launch, more than a dog a day has been reunited with their family. Be a hero in your neighborhood with Search Party. Available to everyone for free right now.”

It does not take an imagination of any sort to envision this being tweaked to work against suspected criminals, undocumented immigrants, or others deemed ‘suspicious’ by people in the neighborhood. Many of these use cases are how Ring has been used by people on its dystopian “Neighbors” app for years. Ring rose to prominence as a piece of package theft prevention tech owned by Amazon and by forming partnerships with local police around the country, asking them to shill their doorbell cameras to people in their neighborhoods in return for a system that allowed police to request footage from individual users without a warrant.

Conservative Swiss MP Urges 'End To Immigration From Stone Age Cultures' As Stats Expose Prevalence Of Domestic Violence

New statistical data has highlighted the prevalence of domestic violence across different population groups in Switzerland, sparking a political debate over its root causes.

SVP National Councillor Pascal Schmid argues that the figures identify this primarily as a migration problem, noting that even foreign women are accused of these offenses more frequently than Swiss men.

Schmid requested data from the Federal Council, which provided an analysis of domestic violence frequency broken down by gender and nationality. The results show that for every 10,000 foreign men in the permanent resident population, 33.3 were accused of domestic violence in 2024, compared to 12.6 for Swiss men. For women, the rate was 13.2 for foreign women and 4.4 for Swiss women.

The data shows that foreign women are accused of domestic violence at slightly higher rates than Swiss men, however, foreign men clearly dominate in this category of crime overall, according to Blick.

In response to the latest Swiss data, Schmit wrote: “Domestic violence is not simply a problem solely affecting men, but primarily a migration problem.”

Carrie Prejean Boller Takes on the Zionist Lobby at White House Religious Liberty Commission

Catholic activist Carrie Prejean Boller set X on fire on Monday after taking on the Zionist Lobby while serving as a commissioner on the White House Religious Liberty Commission.

Boller, who made waves in 2009 for opposing gay marriage as Miss California in the Miss USA pageant, was appointed by Trump to the commission and used the opportunity to boldly fight for Americans' free speech and religious liberties -- both of which are under assault by Zionists.

One of the Largest Silver Deposits in the World Likely Going Offline

Vizla Silver …who controls one of the single largest Silver deposits in the world – located in Mexico …

had 10 of it’s employees kidnapped by the Sinaloa Cartel a couple weeks ago …

those employees have now been found dead …

i’m pretty sure this is going to take their massive planned Silver mine offline indefinitely … as it appears cartel has other plans …

Whats at stake with this massive Silver deposit? …

* 361 million ounces of Silver

* these are “low cost” ounces of Silver

The Dollars at stake; using 361 million Silver ounces …

* 361 mil x $83 US per ounce = $29.9 Billion US

* 361 mil x $200 US per ounce = $72.2 Billion US

Those are big numbers for a single mine, especially for in a country like Mexico

https://vizslasilvercorp.com/projects/panuco-project/overview/

Details are being leaked out thru Facebook & Twatter …

it appears that Vizsla has been hiding from their shareholders the “alledged” fact they’ve been paying the cartels a monthly fee to operate in their territory, among other details Vizla “appears” to be hiding from their shareholders …..

(Cartels also took over Mexican avocado exports)
