When we started responding to Russia’s operation against our data centers, and when our strikes reached Yandex’s data centers, it suddenly became a little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. A lot of people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, and fewer provocations.
Because there were fewer bots. And it’s pretty clear where those bots were coming from – if they disappeared when Yandex went offline. This proves, again and again, that Europe is not the source of the problems. Europe is not the one making everything more difficult.
Most importantly, we need people in America, every morning, when the day in Europe is already moving toward evening, to really see what is happening. To see the truth.

PAULIT ULIT ako dahil hanggang ngayon hindi pa ninyo na-memorize at hindi pa rin nag-sink in sa inyo ang kaCHINONGALINGAN ninyo: illegal at imperyalista ang ginagawa ninyo sa West Philippine Sea. Kailangan ko ring ulit-ulitin ang pagsagot sa kaCHINONGALINGAN ninyo dahil baka makapambudol na naman kayo ng mga Pilipino!
1. "Sovereignty" over Panganiban Reef and Zamora Reef. I am not confusing sovereignty with jurisdiction. The Tribunal is the one that settled this: Panganiban Reef and Zamora Reef are low-tide elevations. Under UNCLOS, a low-tide elevation is not land territory, generates no territorial sea of its own, and cannot be appropriated by any state. Nobody can have "sovereignty" over Panganiban Reef. It sits within the Philippine EEZ and continental shelf, and the Tribunal found that China built on it, and on Zamora, without any lawful basis.
2. The "farce" that fourteen governments and the EU just reaffirmed. The Article 298 argument was raised, examined, and rejected in the Tribunal's 2015 jurisdiction ruling. The Philippines never asked for delimitation or sovereignty. It asked whether China's claims were lawful under a treaty China ratified. China chose not to appear; Annex VII says non-appearance does not defeat jurisdiction. As for the DOC, it is a non-binding political declaration, and the Tribunal held it did not bar arbitration.
On the "more than 40 governments" who supposedly have no right to speak: two months ago, Australia, Canada, Estonia, Germany, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, New Zealand, the Philippines, Romania, Slovenia, the UK and the US jointly reaffirmed that the Award is final, legally binding and definitive between China and the Philippines, and that there is no legal basis for China's expansive claims, including those based on historic rights. The EU High Representative separately declared the Award final and legally binding and said it must be respected and fully implemented. Japan's Foreign Minister stated that China's refusal to accept the Award undermines the rule of law in the international community.
If these countries had "no right" to comment, Beijing would have ignored them. Instead, China's Foreign Ministry lodged strong protests with the diplomatic missions of the countries concerned and the EU delegation. You do not summon fourteen ambassadors over waste paper.
3. "Who is provoking whom?" Every incident on the embassy's list happens in one place: inside the Philippine EEZ.
Ayungin Shoal: the Tribunal ruled it is within the Philippine EEZ and continental shelf. BRP Sierra Madre sits on Philippine seabed. There is no Chinese sovereignty there to "infringe."
Bajo de Masinloc: the Tribunal ruled that China unlawfully blocked Filipino fishermen from their traditional fishing grounds. In July this year, CCG water cannons hit BFAR vessels on a fuel-subsidy mission for those same fishermen, and MRRV-4408 the next day. Then a Chinese survey vessel loitered off the shoal for weeks with no permit and finally left our EEZ on 09 September. That is not "necessary measures." That is a coast guard, a survey fleet, and a self-declared "nature reserve" enforcing an invalidated claim.
Escoda Shoal: about 75 nautical miles from Palawan. A Philippine ship anchoring inside the Philippine EEZ is not a provocation. Chinese ships ramming it was.
Pag-asa Cays: Filipinos landing on Philippine features beside a Philippine municipality. The embassy calls this "illegal landings" and counts our personnel. We call it going home.
The fourteen-country statement said it directly: strong opposition to the use of coast guard, military and maritime militia forces to harass, obstruct or intimidate lawful operations by other states at sea. Only one country in the South China Sea does that.
So here is the same challenge, repeated: if China's case is as "indisputable" as claimed, bring it to a tribunal. Until then, we will keep showing the cameras, and I will keep being repetitive.

We're publishing our most detailed threat intelligence report to date.
It covers how people tried to misuse Claude—for cyberattacks, influence operations, surveillance, biology, and building weapons—and how we found and stopped them.
We disrupted every operation in the report, and used the lessons from them to strengthen our safeguards. Where appropriate, we also shared what we found with authorities and other AI companies.
These cases are not typical: we’re highlighting some of the most sophisticated misuse we’ve seen. But they’re especially important to discuss, because they show us where AI misuse is headed, where our safeguards work, and where they need to improve.
We’re publishing this report so others can spot the same activity on their own platforms, and so we can give the public a clearer view of how emerging threats develop.

OpenWorker -- an open source agent that doesn't just chat but completes tasks on your laptop -- just released a new version with many features for security workflows.
After our initial release, many users found it especially useful for cybersecurity. Attackers are already using AI; OpenWorker is committed to giving defenders the same leverage. Running an agent requires both (i) A model and (ii) A harness (the software around the model). Because the OpenWorker harness is fully open source, security teams can audit it to make sure we haven't built any backdoors that exfiltrate your code and data to some company or even a foreign adversary.
OpenWorker now comes with built-in cybersecurity agents for (i) Scanning your code for vulnerabilities. (ii) Scanning dependencies for supply chain injections. (iii) Checking your cloud security configuration for attack surfaces. This enables developers to do much more security work before deployment (part of what's called the "shift left" movement).
You choose the model: you can run open weight models fully locally so sensitive code never leaves your machine. This helps with legitimate security work (like reproducing a known exploit to defend against it) that can trigger refusals in leading closed models. Or use your ChatGPT subscription, or stealth preview models like Ox Alpha, or any model via API key.
Thanks also to all the open source contributors!

Taiwan solved tax evasion in 1951 with a trick so cheap it should embarrass every tax authority on the planet.
The problem was an all-cash economy full of small shops. A merchant pockets the cash, skips the receipt, and the sale never existed. Auditors can't catch what was never recorded, and hiring enough of them to watch every noodle stand costs more than the missing tax.
So finance chief Ren Xianqun flipped the incentive. Print a lottery number on every receipt. Draw winners every two months on live TV. Top prize today: NT$10 million, about $310K.
Suddenly the customer and the shopkeeper want opposite things. The merchant wants the sale off the books. The customer wants the ticket. And there are millions more customers than merchants. Every transaction now carries a built-in witness demanding the paper trail.
Year one, reported tax revenue jumped 75%, from NT$29 million to NT$51 million. Seventy-five years later, roughly 70% of Taiwanese still play. Convenience stores redeem the smallest NT$200 prizes at the register, so even a coffee receipt feels like a scratch card.
The elegant part is what the audit force costs. The prize pool runs about NT$7 billion a year, roughly $20 million. In exchange, the government gets 23 million unpaid auditors working every checkout line in the country, forever. No inspector general on earth delivers that coverage at that price.
Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Slovakia all copied it. The most effective compliance tool ever built looks like a game, and that's exactly why it works.
In order to prevent stores from evading taxes, every receipt in Taiwan is automatically a lottery ticket, too, which can win up to $300k, turning customers into voluntary tax auditors:

‼️🚨 BREAKING: A new npm supply-chain attack uses a dead-man's switch. The payload plants a watcher on your machine that nukes your home directory the second you revoke the GitHub token it stole from you.
The compromise happened today, across 42 official tanstack npm packages, 84 malicious versions in total. tanstack/react-router alone pulls more than 12 million weekly downloads.
The attacker forked TanStack's repository and pushed a single hidden commit. From there, they tricked TanStack's own release system into signing the malicious packages as if they were the real thing. To npm, and to anyone checking the cryptographic proof of origin (SLSA provenance), the poisoned versions looked 100% legitimate.
Maintainer Tanner Linsley confirmed the whole team had 2FA enabled. It didn't matter. This is the first documented npm worm in history that ships with a valid, signed certificate of authenticity, the same one defenders rely on to know a package wasn't tampered with.

THIS GUY BUILT AN ENTIRE WIKIPEDIA THAT IS 100% AI HALLUCINATIONS AND IT'S OPEN SOURCE ON GITHUB
it's called Halupedia.
nothing on the site existed before you clicked. every article was generated the second you arrived.
the site has one rule: the universe only exists when you visit it.
it looks exactly like wikipedia. same fonts. same layout. same scholarly citations. same "stumble" button for random articles.
the only difference is none of it is real.
here are some actual articles currently in the encyclopedia:
> the great pigeon census of 1887
> the ministry of slightly wrong maps
> chaldic arithmetic — a branch of mathematics where subtraction is forbidden
> armund the river mapper — a cartographer who mapped 14,000 leagues of river without leaving his chair
> the society for the prevention of unnecessary tuesdays
every article page also tells you how many people are reading it right now. it says: "you alone are consulting this folio at present."
the creator's own tagline for the site is the most unhinged sentence i've read this year:
"an encyclopedia of a universe that does not exist until you visit it"
the entire backend is a single open source repo called vibeserver. one guy. one description on github: "a little webserver making things up just in time."
we built the largest knowledge base in human history and the very first thing a guy did with it was make a hallucinated mirror universe and put it on the open web.
the internet is healing.

‼️🚨 ALARMING: Google now treats privacy as suspicious behavior by default. Users of GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, /e/OS, and other deGoogled Android phones are being locked out of millions of websites unless they install the exact Google Play Services software they deliberately removed.
GrapheneOS is recommended by the EFF and used by journalists, lawyers, and activists in high-risk environments. The audience most likely to read Google's data practices and refuse its terms is now flagged as fraudulent for that exact decision.
What happened?:
▪️ Google announced "Cloud Fraud Defense" at Cloud Next on April 22-23, 2026, branding it "the next evolution of reCAPTCHA." Existing reCAPTCHA customers were auto-migrated.
▪️ When the system flags traffic as suspicious, the old click-the-bus puzzle is gone. Users get a QR code instead.
▪️ Scanning the QR code requires Google Play Services running on the device. Internet Archive snapshots show this requirement has been live since at least October 2025, silently rolled out for 7 months before anyone noticed.
▪️ No Play Services = no QR scan = locked out.
The bigger picture:
▪️ Google already tried this in 2023. It was called Web Environment Integrity (WEI), and it would have let Google decide which devices were "real enough" to access the web. Standards bodies and the public pushed back hard, and Google killed it. Three years later, the same idea is back, just hidden behind a QR code instead of a browser feature.
▪️ reCAPTCHA runs on millions of websites. Every developer who keeps using it is now, by default, telling deGoogled Android users they're not welcome...

🇨🇳@Chinaembmanila's latest gaslighting of the 2016 Arbitral Award
Rear Admiral @jaytaryela did what the 🇵🇭#Philippines has been doing consistently & effectively: he 🔦 shone a light on Chinese maritime aggression & called out unilateral actions in waters where China's legal basis remains exactly what it was in 2016 — discredited.
The Embassy's response is worth reading carefully. Not because it makes a serious legal argument — it doesn't really even try — but because it is a near-perfect specimen of narrative inversion at the level of state communications.
In other words, it's rank gaslighting dressed up sloppily as if it were a legal case. And it turns on four inversions, each one answerable with actual treaty text & the tribunal's own case record.
⚖️ INVERSION #1: #China "upheld" UNCLOS by refusing to participate in an UNCLOS proceeding.
The Philippines filed in January 2013 under UNCLOS Annex VII — the Convention's own compulsory dispute-settlement procedure, which both parties accepted by joining the treaty. Annex VII Article 9 addresses exactly this situation: a party's absence "shall not constitute a bar to the proceedings," provided the tribunal satisfies itself on jurisdiction and the merits.
The Annex VII tribunal — administered by the Permanent Court of Arbitration as registry — issued its jurisdiction award in October 2015 and its final award in July 2016.
China was free to choose non-participation as a litigation strategy. It was not free to turn that absence into a veto. Under UNCLOS Article 296, decisions by a tribunal with jurisdiction are final and must be complied with by the parties.
Calling the award "so-called" does not repeal it. ❌
⚖️ INVERSION #2: "Historic rights" as a shield for present-day operations.
The Embassy again asserts that China enjoys "historic rights" in these waters. The 2016 tribunal addressed that claim directly: UNCLOS comprehensively allocates rights to maritime areas & any Chinese historic rights to resources were extinguished where incompatible with the EEZ regime established by the Convention. That was the point of UNCLOS.
Beijing is reviving — as if uncontested — the exact claim a properly constituted tribunal already rejected.
🔁Repetition is not a legal argument.
⚖️ INVERSION #3: "Waters under China's jurisdiction" as a press-release conclusion.
The statement declares a Chinese research vessel's activities "fully justified and beyond reproach" because they occurred in waters under China's jurisdiction. That is the entire dispute compressed into a sentence and declared resolved in China's favor. 🤷
🔎 Notice what is missing: the vessel's name & coordinates; the specific feature Beijing claims generates the entitlement; the UNCLOS provision relied upon
Marine scientific research requires that coastal state's consent under UNCLOS Article 246. "Beyond reproach" is a slogan, not a defense.
⚖️ INVERSION #4: Transparency as the provocation.
The Embassy dismisses Tarriela's scrutiny — and the Philippines' broader transparency work — as "hype" manufactured by "pro-U.S., anti-China forces." (Insert the usual Ray Powell trope here.) This is the most predictable move in the playbook: when evidence is inconvenient, discredit the people pointing to it.
Beijing's position is that the documentation — not the aggression — is the problem.
🎭 Gaslighting aims to exhaust — to make defending reality so wearying that people just start accepting the lie.
There is indeed an information campaign underway in the #WestPhilippineSea -- just not the one Beijing describes. It is the campaign to make lawful transparency look provocative — and unlawful coercion look defensive.
Rear Admiral Tarriela and his colleagues refuse to be bullied in the dark. Neither should the rest of us.
It's ironic that Jay Tarriela talks about unilateral actions. It was the Philippines that illegally and unilaterally initiated the so-called arbitration, in deliberate violation of international law, including the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea(UNCLOS). Citing this illegal arbitration as the basis for the Philippines' claims in the South China Sea is simply pointless.
First, China has on multiple occasions stated that China's Nanhai Zhudao (the South China Sea Islands) are entitled to territorial sea, contiguous zone, exclusive economic zone, and continental shelf. In addition, China enjoys historic rights in the relevant waters in the South China Sea. China’s maritime rights and interests are consistent with international law, including the UNCLOS. Scientific research conducted by Chinese vessels within waters under China’s jurisdiction is fully justified and beyond reproach.
Second, the Philippines, in disregard of the consensus reached with China to settle disputes through negotiation and consultation, and in violation of its commitments under the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC), unilaterally initiated the so-called arbitration by repackaging its claims. This constitutes an abuse of the dispute settlement mechanism under UNCLOS and undermines its integrity. China's non-acceptance of and non-participation in the arbitration is precisely an act of upholding the authority and dignity of UNCLOS. The arbitral tribunal exceeded its jurisdiction and rendered an illegal award. China does not accept the illegal award, nor does it accept any policy or action premised upon it.
Third, the South China Sea has seen no developments lately that justify the level of hype. Certain pro-U.S., anti-China forces appear deeply anxious and are trying to distort and sensationalize the normal operations of a Chinese research vessel. Such attempts to manipulate public opinion are neither new nor effective; they have long been seen through. Maintaining peace and stability in the South China Sea is the shared aspiration of the people of China and regional countries, and serves the common interests of all relevant parties. Any actions that run counter to this will prove futile and are doomed to fail.

San Bernardino County Fire Highlights Innovation in Fire Technology Using Sound Waves
San Bernardino County Fire is always looking ahead, and this week we had the opportunity to see what the future of fire protection could look like.
We hosted a live demonstration with Sonic Fire Tech, showcasing a cutting-edge system designed to detect and suppress fire using sound waves. Developed by former NASA acoustics engineers, this technology works without water or chemicals, creating a protective zone that can stop ignition in milliseconds while avoiding the collateral damage often seen with traditional suppression methods.
From autonomous early detection to rapid suppression, tools like these have the potential to reduce fire damage before it starts, especially in wildfire prone areas. This same technology can also be applied inside homes and businesses, helping stop fires like kitchen or appliance fires in their early stages before they grow and spread. As this kind of technology continues to evolve and expand, it could also help reduce insurance claims over time, which may ultimately lead to lower insurance costs for homeowners.
This technology is already beginning to be incorporated into newly constructed homes in the Altadena area impacted by the Eaton Fire, highlighting its real-world application and growing role in community resilience.
San Bernardino County Fire remains committed to exploring innovation, strengthening our relationships, and finding new ways to better protect the communities we serve.
