How to check if the authorities compromised your smartphone

In today's day and age many people do no take seriously their privacy and security with regards to their smartphone.

This is especially true when attending a rally or mass gathering.

In order to obtain information about you, authorities or NGOs (Non Government Organisations) can use a 'stingray' like device or IMSI catcher or portable cell tower base station to obtain information from your phone about you.

These type of attacks are called Man In The Middle (MITM) attacks.

One way check if your (Android) smart phone communications have been compromised is via an app called Privacy Cell, being available through f-droid.org.

This is only available to those who have Android 11 and upwards.

If you are not running Android 11, you can still catch the 'man in the middle' via another app called Catch the Man-in-the-Middle by Braxmobile,

Elon Musk scammed people $3.75m from a car deposit

... and the authorities are silent on this.

MANY people think that Mr. Musk is brilliant, smart or maybe even eclectic, but in reality he's a scammer making money from other people's money.

In 2017, he thought of a vehicle and called it the Roadster, with world record breaking 'everything' i.e. ¼ mile, acceleration and electric range, all on paper of course.

So he then though of an ingenious money making scam, where to be part of the 'founders' club, you transfer the full purchase price of the vehicle, USD250,000 to him.

Five years later your money is in his pocket and you STILL have no vehicle!

If you invested that money you gave to 'him' into his company's stocks, you'd have $4 million in the bank.

What a rip off merchant Mr Musk is!

Report claims Apple saved $6.5 billion by removing charger and EarPods from iPhone boxes

Apple's not giving you a charger with your new phone has nothing to do with 'caring' about the planet but rather about their profits.

When TF International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo told clients in June 2020 that the iPhone 12 series would not include a charger or EarPods inside the box, consumers were stunned. Sure, Apple tried to hide behind the goal of being environmentally friendly and pointed out that by reducing the size of the boxes that the iPhone comes in, 70% more devices could fit on a shipping pallet.

Removing the charger and EarPods from the iPhone box allowed 70% more devices to fit on a pallet

More boxes on a pallet would allow Apple to ship more phones to users at one time. As a result, using smaller boxes would allow Apple to reduce yearly carbon emissions by 2 million metric tons, the company said. That is equivalent to taking 500,000 cars off the road.

 

Apple saved plenty of money by removing accessories from the iPhone box

But not everyone believes that Apple made this move, which was copied by most major phone manufacturers including Samsung and Google, to help the environment. While many will agree that Apple is removing the charger from iPhone boxes for a "green" reason, the "green" they are thinking about is the color of money.

The astute observer will note that Apple started this program with the release of its first 5G iPhone series, the iPhone 12. Could Apple have decided to make up for the extra costs of including a 5G modem and other parts by taking the power brick and the EarPods out of the box? 

According to the Daily Mail, by eliminating the charger and the EarPods from the box, Apple has saved a total of £5 billion thus far. That is equivalent to $6.5 billion. But Apple did not reduce the price of its handsets when it removed the accessories from the iPhone box. At the same time, many iPhone buyers who wanted to fast charge their iPhones only had the 5W adapters that came in the box with older models and were forced to spend $19 for a 20W charger and another $19 to replace the EarPods.

Of course, we might be selling Apple short here. After all, some iPhone buyers might have decided to replace the EarPods, which were free out of the box until Apple removed them, with a pair of AirPods which are currently offered at $129 and up.

If a consumer just wanted to replace the EarPods, that could be arranged for an additional $19. So even if an Apple customer just wanted to add a charging brick and the wired EarPods with his new iPhone, that would cost him an additional $38. When you consider the millions of iPhone units Apple sells each year, this certainly runs into plenty of money flowing into Apple's coffers.

Reducing the size of the box and allowing 70% more devices on each pallet should help Apple reduce its shipping costs by 40% which in turn should allow the company to reduce the price of the phone to consumers. Some analysts have computed that Apple is saving the equivalent of $35 on each iPhone it sells. Yet, there has been no cost reduction from the firm.

Since it announced that it was removing the charger and EarPods from the iPhone box, Apple is believed to have shipped 190 million iPhone units. Totaling up the amount of money that Apple has saved from this cost-cutting move and adding the amount of money it saved on shipping comes to the £5 billion (or $6.5 billion) that the Daily Mail computed. In other words, had Apple passed every penny of savings to its customers, the public could be $6.5 billion richer.

But okay, let's say Apple could keep half the amount it saved. That would still have resulted in the public saving $3.25 billion. And we're not even including the amount of money that the public spent on buying a new charger because they didn't have one, or more likely, wanted one that charged at a speed faster than 5W.

And we're not even including the $293.4 million bucks that the Daily Mail says that Apple customers spent on accessories since the company got stingy about what it puts in the box along with the iPhone.

So let's look at it this way. Apple saved money on shipping and by not having to purchase the charging brick and EarPods that used to go in the box. The public not only didn't save any money, but it also had to shell out to replace the accessories they wanted that they no longer received for "free."

This $6.5 billion goes straight to the bottom line increasing Apple's profits and pushing up the price of Apple's stock. In turn, executives like Tim Cook benefit to the tune of millions of dollars while the public pays to replace the missing accessories. Nice work if you can get it.

Ukraine's War Crimes 2022

See screen capture of video below.

While the world is distracted by the mainstream media to focus on the Chris Rock & Will Smith act, other irrelevant topics and that Putin is the 'bad guy', will Ukraine be punished for its war crimes?

We've been forwarded a video showing Ukrainian soldiers taunting bound Russian soldiers, where ultimately they are met with a bullet.

This is just one clip of a few going around.

This footage is available to those who wish to find it, including the authorities, where they do not have to be spoon fed the link, as we should be aware that the 5eyes nations intercept and store all internet traffic.

Can the Ukies really do no harm?

So now the question is will they get away with war crimes?

Our bet is, for sure as that's the narrative.

Why hasn't the mainstream media focused on this atrocious war crime?

There is no 'glory' in war as depicted in the propaganda machine called Hollywood, where certain producer's fiction is allegedly a documentary, e.g. Swinder's List etc.

Spam SMS a 'failure of government'

Australians are getting hammered by SMSs sent out by scammers (or rather criminals) in order to defraud the recipient.

Remembering that under 'Commonwealth' law, this is a criminal offence.

Quite simply put, the federal government is letting criminal activity through.

Living under the 5eyes (Tier 1) global surveillance regime is great.

The government keeps ALL the data going in and out of this colony and what you've generated, but if you've lost some info, you just can't ask them for a copy, as it for their use and not yours.

The other great thing (with the 5eyes) is that the governments have implemented other strategies, apparently for your 'protection', like firewalls, so you don't get 'hurt' visiting internet sites.

Here's an example:

Let's just say Hollywoodland put out a great new film, and you want to see it, but you're being geographically discriminated against, by the moguls, where they are not allowing you to see this superb piece of motion picture art.

So, because of this wonderful government invention that has been commercialised, you're able to go to a website, let's make up a name called superflixbybswoodland.com.tv. and view this piece of art.

Instead you may notice the following result:

What this means is that the federal government of Australia has decided that you are not allowed to visit that site by putting it's address into its firewall.

This is done in order not to 'protect' you but rather the business interests of Hollyoodland.

Corporations have control over government actions, period.

With fraudulent SMSs you (the serf) are being exposed to criminal activity where you will actually suffer financially and the government does NOTHING about it.

How easy is it to filter out a message like this?:

Why hasn't this been done a long time ago?

Because the government's really do not care about you (the serf) otherwise it would have been reflected in their actions.

They only care about corporate interests.

You are nothing more than a serf, a slave to corporations.
