"Trump Says He’s ‘Not Joking’ About Seeking a Third Term in Defiance of Constitution"

nytimes.com/2025/03/30/us/poli

"President Trump, in an interview with NBC News, said there were “methods” that would allow a third term. The 22nd Amendment prohibits a person from being elected to more than two terms as president."

I guess the USA is now close to being a dictatorship. Or is there still some doubt about that? Any signs that US democracy could survive?

"violent far-right groups in Sweden recruit boys as young as 10"

theguardian.com/world/2025/mar

"Driving through western Sweden, [...], Lars Stiernelöf says he has noticed a worrying new trend among young boys. Since the inauguration of Donald Trump in January, after which the US president’s top adviser and the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, gave two fascist-style salutes, there has been a rise in children using the Nazi salute in schools in Värmland."

Got this one for a couple of bucks.
It is in a very non-working condition, basically nothing electrical is working.
The only thing left is a Cathode-ray tube and some speakers - the rest was thrown out long time ago.

So, I need some tips from #fediverse

What display-panel should I put in this one?

I am thinking, of reusing a raspberry pi and make it some sort of "media station" if possible. But first do I need to make the display functional.

I was hoping I wouldn't have to do the "the police are not your friends" talk this early to my kids.

Does Sweden have a right to silence? When can my kids simply walk away from a police officer who wants to ask them questions?

I chose to move to Sweden in part because I enjoyed not being watched police surveillance cameras (big minus for the UK).

Now they are setting up recording cameras on the main square. I don't know what they record, or my rights to object or delete data.

"Virtue or Vice? A First Look at Paragon’s Proliferating Spyware Operations"

citizenlab.ca/2025/03/a-first-

"This report is a first step towards understanding the scope and scale of potential Paragon spyware abuses. The 90-some targets notified by WhatsApp likely represent a fraction of the total number of Paragon cases. Yet, in the cases already investigated, there is a troubling and familiar pattern of targeting human rights groups, government critics, and journalists."

"Den svenske reportern Joakim Medin var på plats för att skildra det stora politiska skeendet. Att Erdogans hårdföra regim inte uppskattar det är tydligt.

Den svenska regeringen måste sätta stark press på Turkiet så att den svenske journalisten kan åka hem."

Swedish police want to dismantle human rights. They want to change the laws to allow secret state surveillance of all children.

sverigesradio.se/artikel/polis

This is wrong in so many ways. What pisses me off most is that the police don't understand their own role in society. OK clearly they don't like human rights but it's anyway not their job to design laws. The police should not lobby to change laws, they should apply the law that exists. The parliament makes laws.

Grrrrr 😠

Frankrike röstar nej till att kräva bakdörrar i totalsträckskrypterade appar

"They listened—not only to French digital rights organizations and technologists, but also to basic principles of cybersecurity and civil liberties. They understood that encryption protects everyone, not just activists and dissidents, but also journalists, medical professionals, abuse survivors, and ordinary citizens trying to live private lives in an increasingly surveilled world."
