Very important to know - Meta's AI, baked into WhatsApp, Facebook etc - posts everything you ask *in public* for research purposes, if you're not paying attention to the UI prompt. People are now crawling through the logs and identifying people.

⚠️ Update: Metrics show further disruptions to internet connectivity across the #Gaza Strip; the telecoms disruptions are likely to impact search, rescue and aid efforts 📉

Graph from NetBlocks showing network connectivity by region in Palestine from June 6, 2025, to June 12, 2025. The y-axis represents normalized connectivity, ranging from 0% to 100%, and the x-axis represents the dates. The green line representing operator Paltel's (AS12975) connectivity remains stable at around 100% throughout most of the time period, with a sharp drop on June 10 and a second sharp drop on the night of June 11, caused by a cut in one of the main routes due to ongoing aggression. The minimum and current connectivity levels are indicated as 13% and 13%, respectively. The chart has a dark background with a red circle highlighting the decline at the end of the period.

I’ve done some crazy things to get over a breakup. Maybe a tub of Ben & Jerry’s and The Notebook is a better way to grieve your boyfriend than deploying the Marines.

@ai6yr @HamonWry Holy crap! This guy on the left feels entirely empowered to deliberately take aim at and shoot with rubber bullet someone who is very obviously a reporter, and nowhere near the actual protesters!

With her being Australian, and with this 100% clearly being on video, this should be a massive international incident, in addition a to being outrageous in its own right!

#LAprotests #Australia #press

Australian 9 News reporter Lauren Tomasi is reporting on the protests. In the background, there is a line of police with rubber bullet guns. The one in the left, circled, is for no reason raising his gun to aim at the reporters.

The moment when reporter Lauren Tomasi is hit by the rubber bullet. Smoke from the shot is visible. A red arrow showing the approximate bullet trajectory has been added.

Matt Organ boosted:

@ai6yr Yes. The reporter is no where near the protestors. The armed cop closest to her first turns to look at her and a second later deliberately aims at her and fires. Here is a screenshot from the video just as she was hit. #LA #LosAngelesProtests #LAPD #LAProtests
