So, basically, he just admitted that the chat is not secure, even within the U.S.? Kind of confirms item 2 above, no? And worth repeating again that Walz said the journalist effectively hacked in by changing his screen name so he looked like someone else. Leaving that there's no evidence that happened, this is Mike Walz's own claim about how secure the chat was. He searched for someone by name only and added them to the chat... And he even thought that excuse was legit enough to play well on national TV! Giving out info on that basis alone could get you fired from high street retail.

nigel99 558 #29 Friday at 07:05 AM Talking of apps. It occurred to me that in this escalating war between Trump and China they have the power to shut down Tictok in the US. I wonder how well US politicians would survive the barrage of complaints if that happened? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yesterday, Trump signed ANOTHER EO allowing TikTOk to remain another 75 days. It's now China threatening to shut it down. Sounds like they might have read, "The Art of the Deal" also. It's like watching two men at the pub rub penis heads and the first one to smile loses. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve not heard that saying before! I wasn’t aware of the EO or that they have threatened to shut it down. The reality is they are highly unlikely to shut it down because just like Facebook and Twitter they get to harvest enormous amounts of user data and it’s a very effective disinformation tool. I’ve no doubt that their algorithms can promote material that undermines Trump. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But kids think it's cool, so let's allow it. Fucking unbelievable the ignorance that is AmeriKKKa. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bunch of SF, Rangers, Marine Force Recon get done with training and go to the local bar. Things heat up, everyone squares off, and just before the blows start; Mad Dgg walks in the center with his hands up looking at the Marine Force Recon guy and hollers, "I challenge you to a real man's contest!" Everyone quiets and he says, "Let's rub penis heads and the first one to smile loses." Everyone fell out laughing and went back to drinking. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
