#Serbia #Europe #war #NWO #Hungaria 🇭🇺— A message in blood, an arsenal of weapons, a stray bullet - Tension on the southern border escalates - Writes hungarian newsite, Pestisracok.hu — The situation on the 🇷🇸Serbian side of our southern border has worsened since Az Akta exposed the camps of terrorist human trafficking gangs whose warfare with each other is endangering the lives of local Hungarians. As we reported, 🇦🇫Afghan and North African terrorist groups are camping in the forests around Subotica, armed with automatic weapons, grenade launchers and grenades, and there are now daily firefights, shooting and explosions, often near residential houses. These gangs are organising the daily onward transfer of hundreds of illegal migrants from Zagreb to the South. In recent days the already untenable situation has escalated. Remnants of shootings, ammunition shells can be found by the hundreds a few tens of metres from the border - they are already shooting at the border, while groups of 300-400 people are leading an invasion of the fence. And they are no longer shaking the ladder: they are cutting through the fence, pushing people over it, with armed smugglers covering the operation. PestiSrácok.hu has obtained a number of exclusive footage of the terrorists and the operations to find them. On TikTok, we found videos of the smuggling gangs sending messages of war to each other with different messages. These videos also show that elite terrorist groups are waging a war for the human trafficking market and territories. And the Balkan investigative portal BIRN has also managed to identify the leaders of the groups and, through their internal informants, to map the events of the territorial division battles. — Their six months of research and analysis have also revealed that 🇦🇱Albanian criminal gangs, mainly from 🇽🇰Kosovo, are supplying the weapons for the wars of 🇲🇦Moroccan and Afghan gangs, and at a very high price.

Orbot vs VPN: Which One Should You Use for Online Privacy and Security? If you are concerned about your online privacy and security, you might have heard of Orbot and VPN. Both are tools that can help you protect your data and identity from prying eyes and malicious actors on the internet. But what are the differences between them, and which one should you use for your needs? In this blogpost, I will explain the basics of Orbot and VPN, compare their advantages and disadvantages, and give you some tips on how to choose the best option for you. What is Orbot? Orbot is a free app from The Guardian Project that empowers other apps on your device to use the internet more securely. Orbot uses Tor to encrypt your Internet traffic and hide it by bouncing through a series of computers around the world. Tor is a network of volunteers who run servers called relays that act as intermediaries between your device and the websites or services you want to access. By routing your traffic through multiple relays, Tor makes it difficult for anyone to trace your online activity back to you or your location. What is VPN? VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. It is a service that allows you to create a secure connection to another network over the internet. A VPN provider operates servers in different countries that you can connect to. When you use a VPN, your traffic is encrypted and tunneled through one of these servers, which changes your IP address and virtual location. This way, you can bypass geo-restrictions, censorship, and surveillance that might affect your online freedom and privacy. Orbot vs VPN: Pros and Cons Both Orbot and VPN have their pros and cons, depending on what you want to achieve online. Here are some of the main factors to consider when comparing them: - Privacy: Orbot offers a higher level of privacy than most VPNs, because it uses multiple layers of encryption and obfuscation to anonymize your traffic. No one can see what websites or apps you are using, not even the Tor network itself. VPNs, on the other hand, can still leak or log some information about your activity, such as your IP address, DNS requests, or timestamps. Some VPNs may also cooperate with authorities or third parties if they receive legal requests or subpoenas. Therefore, if you want to avoid any trace of your online presence, Orbot is a better choice than VPN. - Speed: VPNs offer faster speeds than Orbot, because they only use one server to route your traffic. Orbot, on the other hand, uses multiple relays that add latency and bandwidth limitations to your connection. This means that Orbot can slow down your browsing, streaming, or downloading experience significantly. Therefore, if you want to enjoy fast and smooth online performance, VPN is a better choice than Orbot. - Compatibility: VPNs are more compatible than Orbot with different devices and platforms. Most VPNs have dedicated apps for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Android TV, and more. Orbot only has an app for Android devices, although you can also use it with other apps that have a proxy feature. Therefore, if you want to protect all your devices and browsers with one tool, VPN is a better choice than Orbot. - Functionality: Orbot has more functionality than most VPNs, because it can access the dark web and onion services. The dark web is a part of the internet that is hidden from regular search engines and browsers. It contains websites and services that offer anonymity, privacy, and security for various purposes. Some of them are legitimate and useful, such as whistleblowing platforms, human rights organizations, or encrypted messaging apps. Others are illegal and dangerous, such as drug markets, hacking forums, or child pornography sites. Onion services are websites that end with .onion and can only be accessed through the Tor network. They offer extra security and privacy for both users and operators by encrypting both ends of the communication. VPNs cannot access the dark web or onion services unless they also use Tor as an additional layer of protection. Therefore, if you want to explore the hidden parts of the internet safely and securely, Orbot is a better choice than VPN. How to Choose Between Orbot and VPN? The choice between Orbot and VPN depends on your personal preferences and needs. There is no definitive answer to which one is better for everyone. However, here are some general guidelines that can help you make an informed decision: - If you value privacy over speed and compatibility, choose Orbot. - If you value speed and compatibility over privacy and functionality, choose VPN. - If you want to access the dark web or onion services securely, choose Orbot. - If you want to bypass geo-restrictions or censorship easily, choose VPN. - If you want to have both options available at any time, use both Orbot and VPN together. Using Orbot and VPN Together You can use Orbot and VPN together to enhance your online privacy and security. This way, you can combine the benefits of both tools and minimize their drawbacks. There are two ways to do this: - VPN over Tor: This means that you first connect to the Tor network using Orbot, and then connect to a VPN server using a VPN app. This way, you can hide your IP address and location from the Tor network, and also encrypt your traffic from the VPN server to the destination website or service. This method is more secure, but also slower and less compatible. - Tor over VPN: This means that you first connect to a VPN server using a VPN app, and then connect to the Tor network using Orbot. This way, you can hide your IP address and location from your internet service provider (ISP) or local network, and also encrypt your traffic from your device to the Tor network. This method is faster and more compatible, but also less secure. Conclusion Orbot and VPN are both useful tools that can help you protect your online privacy and security. However, they have different strengths and weaknesses that you should consider before choosing one or the other. Orbot offers more privacy and functionality, but also slower speeds and less compatibility. VPN offers faster speeds and more compatibility, but also less privacy and functionality. You can also use both tools together to get the best of both worlds, depending on your preferences and needs. I hope this blogpost has helped you understand the differences between Orbot and VPN, and how to choose the best option for you. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to leave them below.

The US strategic petroleum reserve (SPR) is an emergency stockpile of crude #oil that is maintained by the Department of Energy (DOE) to reduce the impact of supply disruptions and fulfill international obligations. The SPR has a storage capacity of **714 million barrels** and as of July 21, 2023, it had an inventory of **346.8 million barrels**¹². The SPR is stored in four sites along the Gulf of Mexico, each with a number of artificial caverns created in salt domes below the surface². The SPR can release oil in case of a severe energy supply interruption, as authorized by the President, or in exchange for more oil from private companies. The SPR has sold oil three times for emergency purposes, most recently in 2011 to offset the disruption caused by the unrest in Libya². The SPR has also run several sales since 2017 to fund federal spending, as mandated by Congress². In 2023, President Joe Biden announced that his administration would release **1 million barrels of oil per day** from the SPR for **180 days**, selling it at an average price of **$96 per barrel**, to ease the high energy prices and inflation. This was the largest release in the history of the SPR and was coordinated with other major oil-consuming countries². However, after oil prices declined in the second half of the year, the administration announced it would begin replenishing the SPR in early 2023, expecting to purchase oil at a lower price than it was sold². According to legislation already in place, the amount of oil in the reserve could fall to **238 million barrels** by 2028, which would be a **67% reduction** since 2010². This raises questions about the future role and effectiveness of the SPR as a strategic asset for the US energy security and foreign policy. If you want to learn more about the SPR, you can visit its official website³ or read some of the web search results I found for you¹². I hope this information was helpful. 😊 Source: Conversation with Bing, 04/09/2023 (1) Strategic Petroleum Reserve | Department of Energy. https://www.energy.gov/ceser/strategic-petroleum-reserve.

To generate a list of all the two letter country codes of Orbot exit and entry nodes, you can use the following steps: 1. Open Orbot and tap the **settings** button on the main screen. 2. Tap **Entrance Nodes** or **Exit Nodes** to see the current selection of nodes. You can also tap **Change exit** on the main screen to see the available exit nodes by country. 3. To see the two letter country code of each node, you can use a web browser and visit [Tor Metrics](^1^), which is a website that provides statistics and information about the Tor network. 4. On the Tor Metrics website, tap the **menu** button on the top left corner and select **Relays**. 5. On the Relays page, you can search for a node by its name or fingerprint, or filter by various criteria such as country, flags, bandwidth, etc. 6. When you find a node that you are interested in, tap on its name to see more details about it. You will see the two letter country code next to the flag icon under the **Location** section. For example, if you want to find the country code of `noiseexit01d`, which is a node that was mentioned in one of the web search results², you can follow these steps: 1. Open Orbot and tap the **settings** button on the main screen. 2. Tap **Exit Nodes** and enter `noiseexit01d` in the text box. Tap **OK** to save your selection. 3. Open a web browser and visit [Tor Metrics](^1^). 4. Tap the **menu** button on the top left corner and select **Relays**. 5. In the search box, enter `noiseexit01d` and tap **Search**. 6. Tap on `noiseexit01d` from the list of results to see more details about it. 7. You will see that the country code of `noiseexit01d` is `NL`, which stands for Netherlands. Here is a list of some common two letter country codes that you may encounter when using Orbot: - US: United States - DE: Germany - FR: France - CA: Canada - GB: United Kingdom - SE: Sweden - NL: Netherlands - CH: Switzerland - RU: Russia - CN: China You can find more country codes on [Wikipedia](^3^) or other online sources. #orbot #TOR #privacy

#TOR #privacy #orbot 1. Download and install Orbot from the the [F-Droid repository] 2. Open Orbot and tap the **power button** in the center of the screen to connect to the Tor network. You will see a message saying "Orbot is starting..." and then "Connected to the Tor network!" when it is ready. 3. To use Orbot as a VPN for all your apps, tap the **VPN** button on the main screen and select the apps you want to route through Tor. You can also enable **Transparent Proxying** in the settings to force all apps to use Tor, but this requires root access on your device. 4. To set up your own entrance and exit nodes, tap the **settings** button on the main screen and then tap **Entrance Nodes** or **Exit Nodes**. You can enter the two-letter country code or the fingerprint of the nodes you want to use, separated by commas. For example, if you want to use nodes from France, Germany, or Spain, you can enter `{fr},{de},{es}`. You can also use the **Change exit** option on the main screen to select a specific country for your exit node after connecting to Tor. 5. To enforce your node selection, you can enable **Strict Nodes** in the settings. This will make Orbot use only the nodes you specified and avoid any other nodes. However, this may reduce your anonymity and performance, as you will have fewer options to choose from. 6. Some other handy tips for using Orbot are: - You can use bridges to bypass censorship or blocking of Tor by some ISPs or governments. Bridges are unlisted entry nodes that can help you connect to Tor. To enable bridges, go to settings and tap **Use Bridges**, then select a type of bridge or enter a custom one. - You can view your current circuit of nodes by tapping the **info** button on the main screen. You can also refresh your circuit by tapping the **refresh** button or request a new identity by tapping the **broom** button. - You can access hidden services or .onion sites using Orbot. You will need a browser that supports proxy settings, such as [Orfox](^5^) or [Lightning]. You will also need to enable **HTTP Proxy** in Orbot's settings and enter `localhost:8118` as the proxy host and port in your browser's settings. - You can also share your internet connection through Tor with other devices using **Tor Tethering**. This requires root access on your device and a USB cable or a Wi-Fi hotspot. To enable Tor Tethering, go to settings and tap **Tor Tethering**, then follow the instructions.

#germany 🇩🇪 A survey by Der Spiegel reveals that half of the Germans are worried about their economic future. They think that Germany will lose its status as a global economic power in the next 10-15 years. The majority of German business leaders share this pessimism. They believe that Germany has reached its highest point of development and will decline from now on. One of the main reasons for this gloomy outlook is the expensive electricity in Germany. 76% of business leaders say that this will cause the industry to shrink. The German economy has been struggling for a while. The Federal Statistical Office announced that the GDP did not grow from April to June compared to the previous quarter. This followed two quarters of negative growth. #economy

# Why you should care about privacy and decentralization Privacy is a fundamental human right that allows us to express ourselves freely, without fear of being tracked, monitored, or censored by anyone. However, most of the popular chat and social media apps we use today are not very privacy-friendly. They often require us to provide personal information such as phone numbers or email addresses to create an account, and they collect and store a lot of metadata about our communications, such as who we talk to, when, where, and for how long. This metadata can reveal a lot about our personal lives, preferences, habits, and relationships, and it can be accessed by third parties such as advertisers, governments, hackers, or malicious actors. Decentralization is a way of designing systems that do not rely on a single point of control or failure. Instead of having a central server that handles all the data and communication, decentralization distributes the tasks among multiple nodes that cooperate with each other. This makes the system more resilient, secure, and scalable, as well as more respectful of users' autonomy and sovereignty. Decentralized systems are harder to censor, manipulate, or shut down by anyone. # How decentralized chat and social media apps work Decentralized chat and social media apps are applications that use peer-to-peer (P2P) or blockchain technologies to enable users to communicate directly with each other, without intermediaries or servers. They use encryption to protect the content and metadata of the messages from eavesdropping or tampering, and they use various methods to discover and connect with other users on the network. Some of these methods include: - Distributed hash tables (DHTs), which are data structures that store key-value pairs across multiple nodes on the network. DHTs can be used to store user profiles, contact lists, public keys, or message pointers. - Onion routing, which is a technique that routes messages through multiple layers of encryption and anonymization. Onion routing can be used to hide the IP addresses and locations of the users from network observers. - Bluetooth or Wi-Fi direct, which are wireless technologies that allow devices to communicate with each other over short distances. Bluetooth or Wi-Fi direct can be used to exchange messages when there is no Internet access available. - Memory cards or QR codes, which are physical media that can store data. Memory cards or QR codes can be used to transfer messages offline or across devices. # Examples of decentralized chat and social media apps There are many decentralized chat and social media apps available today, each with its own features and advantages. Here are some examples: - NOSTR¹ is a simple protocol for decentralizing social media that has a chance of working². It allows users to post notes and other stuff on the network, using public-key cryptography to verify the authorship and signatures of the messages. Users can follow each other's public keys, subscribe to forums or communities, and use relays or bootstrap servers to join the network. - Jami³ is a SIP-compatible distributed P2P softphone and instant messenger⁴. It supports voice and video calls, group chats, video conferences, screen sharing, media streaming, and SIP functionality. It uses DHTs to store user profiles and public keys, onion routing to protect the metadata of the calls, and Wi-Fi direct or Bluetooth to communicate offline. - Session⁵ is an end-to-end encrypted messenger that minimises sensitive metadata⁶. It supports private messaging, public forums, voice messages, and attachments. It uses onion routing to prevent eavesdroppers from learning which users are talking to each other, and it uses swarms (groups of nodes) to store and deliver messages. - Briar⁷ is a P2P encrypted messaging app that works without Internet access⁸. It supports private messaging, public forums, blogs, voice messages, and attachments. It uses Bluetooth or Wi-Fi direct to sync messages directly between devices, Tor network to sync messages over the Internet, and memory cards or QR codes to transfer contacts or messages offline. # Conclusion Privacy and decentralization are important values that we should uphold in our digital lives. By using decentralized chat and social media apps that don't need full ID and phone numbers, we can communicate more securely and freely with each other, without exposing our personal information or metadata to anyone. We can also enjoy more features and functionalities that are not possible or limited in centralized systems. Decentralized chat and social media apps are not perfect solutions for every scenario or threat model, but they offer us more choices and opportunities to take control of our own communication. #privacy #freespeech #NWO
