Kyiv Independent: Russia reportedly restricts Telegram in latest push to tighten internet control. “Russia’s communications regulator, Roskomnadzor, began restricting the operation of Telegram on Feb. 10, targeting one of the country’s most widely used messaging platforms, Russian pro-state outlet RBC reported, citing three sources familiar with the matter.”
https://rbfirehose.com/2026/02/10/kyiv-independent-russia-reportedly-restricts-telegram-in-latest-push-to-tighten-internet-control/It's true. It's mainly bullshit on #socialmedia instead of #medicine.
How about asking a doctor before shoving things in your ear (which they will likely warn you against)?
The sound stuff? Go nuts. No self harm. There is some relaxing stuff i listen to that claims a reset (i think it's bs), but it is relaxing music.
Use that thing between your ears without attempting to touch it. 🤣

Die in #Trump #Epstein Kreisen sehr beliebte Plattform #Discord führt #alterscheck ein.
Man kann alle #Kids nur davor warnen irgendwelche persönlichen Daten von sich preiszugeben. Klärt eure Kinder auf! Sonst steht demnächst ein #Epstein vor der Tür.
Diese Kreise und #Amerikaner überhaupt nutzen die Daten und Bilder gnadenlos aus, auch für denkbare Erpressungen.
I stopped using Whatsapp some days ago and I'm feeling some sort of withdrawal effects.
Until now the most difficult part was coping with the illusion that someone might be asking you something important and you're not responding. (Maybe FOMO?).
But today I was going to uninstall the app, I long pressed the icon and a list of people appeared. A horrible feeling of strong anxiety kicked in. That was the moment I knew the app was making me worse than I thought.

Irish Examiner: Government bodies need to get off X, now
"Nobody in Ireland should be exposed to hate speech, bullying, or child sexual abuse images on X just to find out if their train is delayed"
"... most Government departments continue to use X for their outbound comms with the Irish people, with several, including the HSE, An Garda Síochána and the Department of Transport (via TFI and the TII) providing essential real-time updates via this now-niche third party platform — some exclusively so."

Las autoridades nacionales bloquearon varias apps dedicadas a la piratería, discord dice que va a pedir verificación de rostro para entrar en su app; el internet con el que yo crecí está muriendo. Por suerte todavía hay alternativas (como mastodon), esperemos que duren mucho más tiempo.

(2/3) Anlass zu einem Umbau der sozialen Medien geben aktuelle Berichte über eine Flut #KI-generierter #Falschmeldungen und politische #Zensur auf den großen Plattformen, die zunehmend Beiträge blockieren, die die Aktivitäten der #Trump-Administration kritisieren.
Die Hochschulen sollten deshalb den Schwerpunkt ihrer #SocialMedia-Arbeit auf die nicht-kommerziellen und dezentralen Plattformen legen, die als #offeneNetzwerke konzipiert sind. Hochschulen als Bildungseinrichtungen werden damit viel eher ihren eigenen Zielsetzungen zur Förderung von nachhaltigem Wirtschaften und dem Schutz der #Demokratie gerecht.
