Headline: ARY Digital Network acquires majority stake in Nukta ARY Digital Network, one of Pakistan’s most influential and widely viewed television networks, has acquired majority shares of the digital media platform Nukta as part of ARY Group’s broader strategy to expand its leadership in the evolving digital media landscape. The move reflects ARY Group’s continued commitment to innovation in journalism, combining its decades-long strength in broadcast media with the growing importance of digital storytelling and audience engagement. Through this integration, Nukta will join ARY Group’s expanding media ecosystem, which currently reaches millions of viewers across television, digital platforms and international markets. Salman Iqbal, Founder of the ARY Digital Network & CEO of the ARY Group, said: “The media landscape is changing rapidly, and ARY has always been at the forefront of that evolution. By bringing Nukta into the ARY ecosystem, we are strengthening our digital presence while building on ARY’s global broadcast leadership. We are confident this integrated platform will deliver powerful journalism and innovative storytelling for the digital age.” While continuing to operate from its Dubai headquarters, Nukta will now become part of ARY Group’s broader international media network, leveraging the group’s scale, credibility and production capabilities to expand its audience and content offerings. Originally launched as Nukta Pakistan and Nukta Dubai, the platform includes verticals such as Nukta Business, Nukta Crime and Nukta Life. These platforms have already built strong digital audiences and are expected to expand further as part of ARY’s strategy to strengthen its digital content ecosystem across Pakistan and the wider South Asian region. Kamran Khan, founder of Nukta and a veteran journalist with over 42 years of experience across print and television, now joins ARY as Chairman of ARY News & Nukta. “This partnership creates an exciting opportunity to combine ARY’s unmatched broadcast reach with Nukta’s fast-growing digital platform. Together, we aim to build a modern media platform that delivers credible journalism, sharp analysis and compelling storytelling for audiences across Pakistan and the global South Asian community,” added Kamran Khan, Chairman of ARY News & Nukta. As part of the integration, Nukta’s flagship program On My Radar (OMR) with Kamran Khan will soon appear on ARY News, bringing the show to a significantly larger television audience. The acquisition marks another step in ARY Group’s evolution as a multi-platform media leader, combining its strong television network with an expanding digital media presence to serve audiences across Pakistan and beyond.

🚩🚩You need to set aside 17 mins and watch this clip. BSA = Safer Online services bill = censorship = Age Verification = Digital ID = Ardern. Retired Judge David Harvey gives a chilling insight into the BSA over reach and explains it’s the precursor for mass censorship and digital ID. Harvey is a former mastermind champion has written books on Internet regulation, has specialised in Media and the Internet for 25 years. This interview was recorded before Nationals member restriction of social media bill was drawn out of the tin - and he correctly guessed “They will have legislation ready for Xmas that is far far spookier than the BSA issue” He explains how the Christchurch Mosque shooting spurred dangerous Lu over reaching legislation including hate speech, and how the insane bureaucrats have long angled for control of the internet - “this is very very dangerous” says the retired Judge. In 2019 The Safer Online Services Bill proposed in New Zealand aimed to establish a unified regulatory framework for media and online platforms, including mandatory measures to mitigate exposure to harmful content like hate speech and to be enforced by an independent regulator (guess who that will be). The bill was shelved in 2024 without progressing to legislation because of widespread public condemnation - but guess what, it’s back. Harvey has gone through proposed changes to regulation and has concluded its the online services bill rehashed. Age verification means we all will have to provide biometric data to be identified to use the Internet. Digital Drivers licences, the new passports, are all devices to load your personal ID data onto the newly built Digital ID architecture, the same architecture that the newly developed CBDC’s (digital cash) works on. Age verifcation to use the internet is THE mass on boarding technique. Everyone needs to use the internet - and many hapless midwits are happy to oblige - welcome to the control grid, where everything you read, post, what your personal messages are and what content you see, information you can access is determined by bureacrats. It will be the beginning of the end of privacy and freedom. Inform yourself and others.

I always look forward to my meetings with Mr Bill Gates for the inspiration and optimism he brings with his conversations. Today, when Lakshmi & I had the privilege to host him again, the keen conversation on the breakfast table with eminent members of Mr Gates’ team and some highly accomplished achievers who are driving India’s economic growth was about how the many initiatives have brought about a huge change in the lives of the people. We discussed how the Digital India initiative spurred by PM Narendra Modi Ji has spawned a wide variety of ideas that empower the citizens, along with bringing convenience and dignity into the lives of people including the women. Things can now be done without stepping out. From green energy to space, everyday services, banking, insurance, space and Artificial Intelligence, we discussed how the scope, scale and depth of these ideas which startups use have a potential to benefit the world. We were delighted to have my friend and India’s G20 Sherpa & former CEO of NITI Aayog Mr Amitabh Kant along with Sh Abhiraj Singh Bhal of Urban Company which offers convenience to people and skill training to its employees, Sh Ravichandran of eVidyaloka which provides online education, Ms Vrinda Kapoor of Third iTech, Inc, Sh the founder of sliceit_, Sh Kamesh Goyal of Digital Insurance which allows consumers to buy insurance covers from the comfort of their home or office, Sh Sunil Vachani of Dixon Technologies India Limited, Sh Vivek Raghavan, the co-founder of Sarvam, Sh Arvind Gupta Arvind Gupta, founding member of the thinktank DIF, and senior journalist Ms Marya Shakil among others.

🚨 Introducing Hash Network - World's Provenance Chain. Misinformation is at an all-time high. AI-generated content, deepfakes, and manipulated media make it impossible to tell what’s real. This crisis of authenticity undermines our ability to rely on the information we consume, leaving us questioning the integrity of everything from images and videos to news we consume. This has given rise to critical questions: How can we trust what we see? Who created this piece of content? How was it modified? The answer lies in provenance, it is the ability to trace the origin, history, and modifications of any content. Simply put, provenance provides the much needed transparency to verify authenticity and understand the steps taken to reach a content’s current state. However, the way provenance is currently stored presents a critical issue. Currently, provenance data is written into the metadata of the content itself. This approach leaves it vulnerable to being erased or tampered with. To truly address the issue, provenance must be tamper-proof, transparent, and universally accessible. This is where Hash Network comes in. Building on C2PA standards and leveraging Content Authenticity Initiative tools, Hash Network provides a tamper-proof layer for content authenticity. By embedding every action whether it’s a content edit or a transformation on-chain, Hash Network ensures that provenance is not just traceable but also tamper proof. It is built as a Layer 3 Arbitrum orbit chain that settles on Base . This infrastructure ensures that the provenance data is protected from tampering and remains accessible, creating a global provenance chain.

Announcing: DePIN Summit Africa in Kenya and Tanzania in July 2025 Hosting DePIN Summit has been one of my favorite highlights of building Escape Velocity over the past few years. DePIN, or Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks, use crypto to scale critical infrastructure like wireless, electricity, or compute in a peer-to-peer manner. By cutting out the middle-man, DePINs provide cheaper and more reliable services than the current incumbents. In other words, DePIN is all about putting power back into the hands of users. 2023's Summit showed that DePIN is a MOVEMENT: for the very first time, 100+ DePIN founders and investors sat in the same room, in Menlo Park, all with a shared vision for the future of what decentralized infrastructure networks will become. 2024's Summit showed that DePIN is INEVITABLE: with more than 350 founders, investors, and operators coming together on a summer Saturday, in NYC, to discuss humanity’s urgent need for digital infrastructure networks that can scale to serve exponentially-growing demand decades in the future. In July 2025, DePIN Summit Africa will show that DePIN is GLOBAL by bringing the community together in Mombasa, Kenya and Zanzibar, Tanzania. We are excited to be collaborating with our on-the-ground partners SHARE and ThreeFold to make the event truly special, bringing together DePIN entrepreneurs and investors from abroad, alongside local industry and government leaders who are eager to understand how DePIN can serve their communities. DePIN has been mostly a US-based phenomenon to date, by almost any metric you can pick: number of projects, total capital raised, etc. A few protocols are bucking the trend and showing how DePIN can serve users in emerging markets: for example, local ISPs in Ghana are using DAWN to provide internet services, one of the largest telcos in Mexico is offloading its customers traffic onto Helium🎈, and grid-scale solar farms in India are mining on Glow Foundation. But by and large, DePIN activity is focused on developed markets, and specifically the US.... DePIN in the US is a huge opportunity, but it’s not the only one! Emerging markets are a different ballgame: the end-user demand for more reliable, performant, scalable digital infrastructure in growing economies is enormous across virtually every sector of DePIN: wireless, energy, compute, sensors, logistics, identity, etc. In East Africa, consumers spend 10-20% of their monthly income on internet service for only 3-4 GB of capacity. The user behaviors, unit economics, and regulatory hurdles are fundamentally different than other markets. With DePIN Summit Africa 2025, we hope to bridge that gap and help plant the seeds for DePIN to expand its reach globally, and specifically into East Africa going forward. We’re excited to be joined by headline speakers including: - Kristof De Spiegeleer, co-founder of ThreeFold's decentralized cloud computing network - Neil Chatterjee, co-founder of DAWN's decentralized fixed wireless internet - Jose Aycart, co-founder of SHARE's decentralized internet and compute infrastructure - Alireza Ghods, co-founder of NATIX Network's decentralized digital mapping network - Robin Wingardh, co-founder of wingbits's decentralized flight tracking to Africa - Fredrik Ahlgren, co-founder Sourceful Energy ⚡️'s decentralized virtual power plants - Raullen Chai, co-founder of IoTeX's modular DePIN L1 and development platform If you’d like to join us and help accelerate the growth of DePIN in emerging markets, please apply below 👇

Today, we’re excited to announce our $50M Series B, led by Greenfield Partners (formerly TPG Capital), with participation from Lightspeed and Notable Capital. 🚀 At PatronusAI, we develop simulations and evals to train and improve AI. The first phase of AI was built on static benchmarks, but that era is over now. As agents are used to solve longer and longer tasks, they need to practice in dynamic, living worlds to get better. Simulations are the critical infrastructure powering this next phase. As a company, we’re behind the most influential research and products in AI evaluation, like FinanceBench, Lynx, and Percival. And things have moved at the speed of light since. ⚡ We partner with the world's leading frontier AI labs and enterprises, and our revenue has grown more than 15x over the past year. Additionally, today, we’re introducing a preview of the first Digital World Model for AI agent training and simulation: Patronus-DWM. Digital World Models are language diffusion world models that predict realistic environment behaviors and steer agent actions across digital workflows. Just as physical world models predict how objects move through space, we’re developing the equivalent for the digital world: predicting how agents act in digital workflows, then using that to scale the creation of high-quality training data for LLMs. Digital World Models help us push the frontier of ultra long horizon workflows, and unlock a new class of self-improving RL environments. This is our scalable approach to simulating all of the world’s intelligence. The round was also joined by Datadog, Inc., Samsung Ventures, Gokul Rajaram, Factorial Capital, and a large cohort of amazing AI leaders and researchers across Anthropic, OpenAI, Google DeepMind, NVIDIA, Recursive, and more. ✨ It has been the ride of a lifetime. But we’re just getting started. The best is yet to come. "Do not go gentle into that good night, Rage, rage against the dying of the light" - Dylan Thomas (1954)

This is the most important post I’ve made to date, by far . It’s an interview with journalist Whitney Webb explaining - Digital ID, where the idea came from, who are the stakeholders and beneficiaries of it, the immense power and control you will cede to Govt and corporations. I have spliced in NZ video to illustrates the points that Webb makes throughout the video. In it she explains how Digital ID is necessary for digital currency to be used, which in turn will create a river of wealth and control for corporations and global bodies. It explains how the public (including here in NZ) is being gaslit about the bill for restricting social media - this requires us all to be biometrically scanned and it will be linked to the new Whakatuturu or verify me digital ID. It features outtakes from select committee submissions from Mattr NZ a subsidiary of Spark who have designed the digital ID architecture, and has previously developed the Covid App plus worked with spy agencies in the US at the dept of Homeland & security. It also features footage of the Co -Chair of the Digital Trust Framework Anna Marie Cavanagh on a UN sustainable Goals discussion, along with Ardern stating the digital ID is built for interaction with Carbon Markets and with the UN SDG’s in mind. Larry Fink (Blackrock) and Jamie Dimon (JP MorganChase) discuss the future of finance and tokenising assets, including your house and even natural assets. Dimon has publicly said that banks should be able to seize public property in the name of climate change. The UN a will force us all to use carbon markets the take up so far has been woeful. Ever wonder why the UN has pushed for legal personhood for natural sites such as Mt Taranaki? It’s because they need to be loaded on the digital ledger. Ngati Wai activist Aperahama Edwards (best known for taking Davis Seymour’s mic away at Waitangi) has so far gathered $70m USD with the backing of King Charles & Richard Branson to make a blue carbon market from NZ’s EEZ and are developing a electronic ‘rāhui’ in the waters to ‘protect the whales’ and the whales will be given a digital ID. The project steered by an Ex IMF director will then ‘take control of the migratory sea channels’ and sell bonds in the ocean. News items covering this bizarre scheme is included. When they say Data is the new oil they were wrong. Data is much more valuable, when you have total tracking of everyone in society. If this all sounds far fetched. Watch the video and get back to me. For nearly two decades I worked internationally in funds management, including working on projects for the biggest Tech companies in the world. I was there when banking institutions pushed CDO’s sheer lunacy that nearly wrecked the financial system in 2008. saw ESG and DEI together with new technology like digital Currency take over the industry and the most preposterous ideas floated, believe me I am very aware of how big Investment banks operate. The UN who entrenched such great ideas such as Transgenderism, Climate change alarmism, mass immigration, internet censorship and globalised centralised control are at the bass line of digital ID and asset tokenisation. Those some progressive woke lunatics who locked us up for months in our houses have designed a new digital prison. Expect it to be insane. The Digital ID architecture is built and ready to go, they just need a mass onboarding process where they can pair your biometrics to your digital ID & digital wallet - enter Luxon’s social media ban. This is nearly an hour long I know, and it’s taken me hours to make in the hope it will inform as many people as possible . Please do yourself and your family a favour, watch and share it. — Rhys Williams.

Dimon has publicly said that banks should be able to seize public property in the name of climate change. The UN a will force us all to use carbon markets the take up so far has been woeful. Ever wonder why the UN has pushed for legal personhood for natural sites such as Mt Taranaki? It’s because they need to be loaded on the digital ledger. Ngati Wai activist Aperahama Edwards (best known for taking Davis Seymour’s mic away at Waitangi) has so far gathered $70m USD with the backing of King Charles & Richard Branson to make a blue carbon market from NZ’s EEZ and are developing a electronic ‘rāhui’ in the waters to ‘protect the whales’ and the whales will be given a digital ID. The project steered by an Ex IMF director will then ‘take control of the migratory sea channels’ and sell bonds in the ocean. News items covering this bizarre scheme is included. When they say Data is the new oil they were wrong. Data is much more valuable, when you have total tracking of everyone in society. If this all sounds far fetched. Watch the video and get back to me. For nearly two decades I worked internationally in funds management, including working on projects for the biggest Tech companies in the world. I was there when banking institutions pushed CDO’s sheer lunacy that nearly wrecked the financial system in 2008. saw ESG and DEI together with new technology like digital Currency take over the industry and the most preposterous ideas floated, believe me I am very aware of how big Investment banks operate. The UN who entrenched such great ideas such as Transgenderism, Climate change alarmism, mass immigration, internet censorship and globalised centralised control are at the bass line of digital ID and asset tokenisation. Those some progressive woke lunatics who locked us up for months in our houses have designed a new digital prison. Expect it to be insane. The Digital ID architecture is built and ready to go, they just need a mass onboarding process where they can pair your biometrics to your digital ID & digital wallet - enter Luxon’s social media ban. This is nearly an hour long I know, and it’s taken me hours to make in the hope it will inform as many people as possible . Please do yourself and your family a favour, watch and share it. — Rhys Williams.

RTI = RIGHT TO DENY INFORMATION? ▪️The RTI is under attack like never before - if the Modi govt has its way the Right To Information may well become the Right To Deny Information. Because it’s likely that you may no longer get the information you seek from your govt. Read on 👉How is RTI under attack? • Amendment of Section 8(1)(j) of RTI under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act), 2023 makes RTI redundant and ineffective 👉What has Modi done to dilute RTI? • Govt has amended Section 8(1) (j) of the RTI Act that pertains to Personal Information. The changed rule says that no personal information can be given under RTI • This is nothing more than broad denial of information under the guise of privacy 👉Why Furore Over DPDP Act Now? • Modi Govt had passed Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act) in 2023 when majority of opposition MPs were suspended • Govt had not notified rules so far and had put the changes for public consultation, the deadline for which ends today • If the govt undermines concerns from every sector quarter and notifies the rules then RTI becomes a toothless right with no good for people 👉Why is RTI important? • The Right to Information Act was revolutionary, it empowered citizens by giving them the right to seek answers & information • RTI also made governance transparent and govts more accountable - just how it should be in any democracy • RTI has time and again exposed massive corruption or lapses in policy execution • RTI has unravelled violation of rules and human rights • RTI made powerless citizens powerful 👉Did RTI really divulge personal information? • Absolutely NOT. In its original form, Section 8(1) (j) of the RTI Act 2005 clearly provided for withholding Personal Information which doesn’t pertain to a public activity or public interest or which amounts to invasion of privacy 👉So what kind of information can RTI now possibly deny? • Names and amount of billionaire wilful defaulters? • Wilful defaulters who have fled India? • How much loan has been waived off for the crony capitalists by banks? • How many work days have been given under MGNREGA? • How much grain has been distributed under PDS and to whom? • Whose names have been added or deleted from electoral rolls? • Income and assets of public representatives, bureaucrats and judges? • Beneficiaries of govt schemes? 👉Does Transparency compromise Privacy? • No. In a constitutional democracy like ours transparency and privacy are not mutually exclusive but they mutually coexist to ensure various fundamental rights 👉Citizens or Subjects? • The dilution of the RTI Act, 2005 under the DPDP Act, 2023 is a direct attack on both transparency and accountability which threatens the fundamental right to information.

Meet Layla Jane. She was introduced to the idea of transitioning via Instagram’s algorithm before she was even 13. By 12 she was put on a "puberty blocker" called Lupron and less than a month into being 13, she got a double mastectomy. Her insurance paid for her transition but does not pay for her detransition. The drug she was given, Lupron, has also been used to chemically castrate pedophiles who rape kids. Again, she was given it at 12 yrs old. Every adult needs to hear how she was abused by the medical system, this ideology and by Big Tech. The worst part? All the adults who affirmed her along the way without treating it as the mental health issue it was think of themselves as compassionate people. Their idea of compassion is Layla’s story of horrific abuse. On her level of education at 12 and 13: "There’s a lot of information I didn’t know about like my own anatomy. I was so young I hadn’t taken a Sex-Ed class… I hadn’t even seen diagrams" "I didn’t know transition from male to female was an option until I was on social media and began being exposed to those types of communities" On the pain after surgery that continues still today: "I was expecting numbness… I wasn’t expecting electrifying jolts and just itchy sensation that I can’t scratch" On lifelong consequences: "increased permanent body hair, my voice has deepened, I actually… I have a slight Adams apple… This Adams apple is always gonna be here unless I get it shaved down surgically. On her mental health being ignored: "They really kind of ignored my co-morbid mental health issues… I remember one of my doctors said that if I transitioned then my anxiety and mental health would get better" "If they would’ve gave me liposuction, I would’ve done it" Transitioning children is pure evil. What was done to Based Detrans🦎LaylaJane is criminal and should never happen again. Spread awareness about her story so we can prevent more horror stories in the future. Watch our full film on ALL the issues kids face at and follow my co-host + wife Landon Starbuck. Special thanks to Center for American Liberty for the work they’re doing to hold people accountable for the abuse perpetrated on young people like Layla. Their work in this space is critical to ending the abuse. @pnjaban

Yesterday, I received ALTON on a courtesy visit at the ncc.gov.ng. I appreciate Engineer Gbenga Adebayo and his team for the engagement and for reaffirming ALTON’s support for a stronger, more stable telecoms sector. I also want to acknowledge EVC, Dr. Aminu Maida, and the NCC management team for the steady institutional work that keeps the Commission effective and trusted, especially the consistency and professionalism that industry stakeholders continue to reference when they speak about the NCC’s independence and credibility. Beyond sector collaboration, I used the opportunity to issue a clear call to action: ALTON should prioritise the zero-rating of educational websites to expand access to learning resources nationwide. This is a practical, near-term intervention that can unlock opportunity for students and educators across Nigeria, especially in underserved communities where data costs can determine whether learning happens at all. It aligns with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, particularly the commitment to inclusive, quality education and ensuring no child is left behind in the digital age. In their response, ALTON welcomed the focus on practical interventions that translate connectivity into measurable national impact. They also reiterated their expectation that the NCC continues to operate with independence and fairness, and they acknowledged that this administration has helped move the sector forward by addressing long-standing legacy issues affecting operators. ALTON expressed readiness to sustain engagement with the Commission as we work through shared priorities. As NCC Chairman, I remain committed to fairness, transparency, and a level playing field for all operators, while pushing for initiatives that convert connectivity into real social and economic outcomes. I look forward to continued collaboration with ALTON and all stakeholders to strengthen quality of service and widen meaningful access.

Canada's forests burn as Carney hands out hundreds of millions abroad Juno News columnist Sue-Ann Levy joined The Ezra Levant Show to discuss her story focusing on the hundreds of millions of dollars Canada has sent countries around the world, and how that money could have been used at home to prevent devastating forest fires. Canada is burning. Mark Carney is paying everyone else. That's the headline published in a Juno News story by journalist Sue-Ann Levy, who joined Ezra Levant on Tuesday's episode of The Ezra Levant Show to walk through the striking numbers. Canada has committed $26.5 billion to Ukraine during its defensive war against Russia. At $50 to $80 million per aircraft, that money would have been enough to purchase more than 350 water bombers. Canada has sent $500 million to Gaza in so-called humanitarian aid, including $100 million as recently as a month ago — enough for two more water bombers. Meanwhile, forest management remains chronically underfunded, and as Ezra noted, the catastrophic Fort McMurray fire nearly a dozen years ago was made worse precisely because forests were not trimmed back from the city for political and environmental reasons. "There are politics," he said. "But the politics need money." Sue-Ann argued the foreign aid spending is not really about the countries receiving it; instead, the dollars are about shaping about domestic politics. "It's about Carney going on a tour mosque to mosque like Trudeau used to do," she said. Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand's trip to Pakistan this week, she noted, has nothing to do with Canadian interests in Pakistan. That trip, Sue-Ann said, is about wooing hundreds of thousands of Pakistani-Canadian voters. The Ukraine funding has a similar diaspora logic. "This is ethnopolitics," Ezra said, "and in some cases it makes us do really dumb things just to try and bribe local voters." The conversation also turned to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg, which recently hosted a Nakba exhibition developed in concert with the Palestinian ambassador. Ezra recalled that the museum was founded with a major donation from the late Izzy Asper, a proud Winnipeg Jew who told him he wanted Canada to have its own Holocaust museum so Canadian Jewish children wouldn't have to travel to Washington. "Now what irony that it's the opposite of that," he said. But Ezra said even a pro-Israel museum would ultimately be beside the point, given "demographics drown it out." "If every year you bring in a quarter million more people who are endemically antisemitic, Holocaust education in school curricula isn't going to make a difference," Ezra said, pointing to a recent report showing 25% of students in the Ottawa-Carleton school district are now Muslim. Sue-Ann added that the Toronto District School Board has introduced anti-Palestinian racism courses while antisemitism surges across the country — antisemitism she said was imported by people taught to hate Jews and brought into Canada by the Carney government.

Public Health Agency of Canada releases first report on psychological manipulation of citizens🩺🇨🇦 Under Chief Medical Officer Theresa Tam, the Public Health Agency of Canada has launched a behavioural science office and released a report on persuasion tactics for compliance, raising ethical concerns about transparency in how taxpayer money is used to influence public behaviour. Canada’s public health agency (Health Canada and PHAC) has established a behavioural science office (BeSciO) and has recently released its first report detailing its persuasion of public compliance under the guidance of Chief Medical Officer of Canada, Theresa Tam (Canada's CPHO). Tam, who also serves on various World Health Organization committees, has been heavily scrutinized for this conflict of interest in recent years. The report starts with a land acknowledgment and outlines the Public Health Agency of Canada’s progress in establishing BeSciO from April 2021 to March 2023. Launched in Spring 2021, BeSciO emphasizes the importance of human behaviour in public health and supported the government's pandemic response with critical advice and evidence. The report defines behavioural science (BeSci) as a multidisciplinary field that studies human behaviour and decision-making by integrating psychology, neuroscience, and social sciences. It emphasizes the importance of understanding psychological, sociocultural, and systemic factors that influence decision-making, enabling practitioners to create effective solutions that impact behaviour-based outcomes. It’s noted in the report that BeSciO has “joined forces with the Office of the Chief Public Health Officer, the World Health Organization, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the Behavioural Insights Team, to name only a few.” As such, it’s important for the public to be prepared for the “crazy ideas” coming down the pike, as stated by WHO director-general Tedros Ghebreyesus (Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus) during a strategic roundtable on behavioural science for better health in 2022. Tam confirms collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), utilizing their behavioural insights tool to monitor compliance with public health measures. The new unit says it is “indebted to the incredible staff of BeSciO, as well as PHAC’s Data, Surveillance and Foresight Branch (formerly Corporate Data and Surveillance Branch).” The report is signed by Heather Devine (Heather Devine 🇨🇦) and Dhurata Ikonomi (Dhurata Ikonomi 🇨🇦), but the rest of the behavioural science team remains unclear. Notably, while partner Impact Canada lists its behavioural insight team, neither Devine nor Ikonomi are included, suggesting the government employs behavioural scientists in various, less transparent roles beyond public health. BeSciO was formed after a “needs assessment” was conducted in April 2021, and then Minister of Health Patty Hajdu, who is said to have “recognized the critical role of human behaviour in public health.” “Creating BeSciO introduced an innovation and experimentation function within the Branch to support PHAC's revitalization as a world-leading, data-driven public health organization,” it says. It would appear that one of their first tasks was the May 2021 memo titled “Testing Behaviourally-Informed Messaging In Response To Severe Adverse Events Following Immunization” where messaging and communication around COVID-19 vaccine injuries needed to be framed in a way that did not compromise the government's safe and effective marketing slogan. Faced with mounting distrust in public health after its grotesque failures in pandemic handling and response, in its first year, BeSciO aimed to address “priority areas such as vaccine confidence, public health measures, combatting mis/disinformation, borders measures, and public health communications to inform key pandemic response activities. In its second year, BeSciO expanded its focus to new areas that emerged as critical to PHAC’s mandate, including climate change and infectious disease, mental health, and antimicrobial resistance.” The new office highlights the growing global use of behavioural science to improve health outcomes by addressing human decision-making tendencies. It aims to predict responses to policies, identify barriers to health-promoting behaviours, design aligned programs, and evaluate interventions for better outcomes. In its first two years, it completed 11 research projects, responded to over 50 advice requests, recruited 10 fellows, conducted 10 training sessions, expanded its community of practice by 308 members, and published 63 newsletters on topics including COVID-19, public trust, mental health, and climate change. It further outlines how it came after the WHO developed the behavioural insights tool – the organization that says “One of the most critical elements of reducing virus transmission is public behaviour.” BeSciO plans to use its research to gauge Canadians' intentions regarding public health measures, studying misinformation and public trust in PHAC. Future project areas include antimicrobial stewardship, childhood immunizations, mask-wearing, mental health, and climate change. They will apply the IMPActS model to shape perceptions and behaviours, which involves identifying policy challenges, mapping targeted changes, prototyping solutions, testing effectiveness, and scaling successful strategies. Notably, their efforts include supporting routine childhood immunization programs during the pandemic through collaboration with the Vaccine Behaviour and Confidence Team of PHAC. The use of behavioural science to nudge compliance often amounts to coercion, occurring subliminally without the public's awareness, undermining personal autonomy and trust. It raises ethical concerns about experimenting on individuals without consent and emphasizes the need for transparency from the agency about these techniques and their impact on public behaviour, particularly given the millions in taxpayer funding involved.

It’s noted in the report that BeSciO has “joined forces with the Office of the Chief Public Health Officer, the World Health Organization, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the Behavioural Insights Team, to name only a few.” As such, it’s important for the public to be prepared for the “crazy ideas” coming down the pike, as stated by WHO director-general Tedros Ghebreyesus (Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus) during a strategic roundtable on behavioural science for better health in 2022. Tam confirms collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), utilizing their behavioural insights tool to monitor compliance with public health measures. The new unit says it is “indebted to the incredible staff of BeSciO, as well as PHAC’s Data, Surveillance and Foresight Branch (formerly Corporate Data and Surveillance Branch).” The report is signed by Heather Devine (Heather Devine 🇨🇦) and Dhurata Ikonomi (Dhurata Ikonomi 🇨🇦), but the rest of the behavioural science team remains unclear. Notably, while partner Impact Canada lists its behavioural insight team, neither Devine nor Ikonomi are included, suggesting the government employs behavioural scientists in various, less transparent roles beyond public health. BeSciO was formed after a “needs assessment” was conducted in April 2021, and then Minister of Health Patty Hajdu, who is said to have “recognized the critical role of human behaviour in public health.” “Creating BeSciO introduced an innovation and experimentation function within the Branch to support PHAC's revitalization as a world-leading, data-driven public health organization,” it says. It would appear that one of their first tasks was the May 2021 memo titled “Testing Behaviourally-Informed Messaging In Response To Severe Adverse Events Following Immunization” where messaging and communication around COVID-19 vaccine injuries needed to be framed in a way that did not compromise the government's safe and effective marketing slogan. Faced with mounting distrust in public health after its grotesque failures in pandemic handling and response, in its first year, BeSciO aimed to address “priority areas such as vaccine confidence, public health measures, combatting mis/disinformation, borders measures, and public health communications to inform key pandemic response activities. In its second year, BeSciO expanded its focus to new areas that emerged as critical to PHAC’s mandate, including climate change and infectious disease, mental health, and antimicrobial resistance.” The new office highlights the growing global use of behavioural science to improve health outcomes by addressing human decision-making tendencies. It aims to predict responses to policies, identify barriers to health-promoting behaviours, design aligned programs, and evaluate interventions for better outcomes. In its first two years, it completed 11 research projects, responded to over 50 advice requests, recruited 10 fellows, conducted 10 training sessions, expanded its community of practice by 308 members, and published 63 newsletters on topics including COVID-19, public trust, mental health, and climate change. It further outlines how it came after the WHO developed the behavioural insights tool – the organization that says “One of the most critical elements of reducing virus transmission is public behaviour.” BeSciO plans to use its research to gauge Canadians' intentions regarding public health measures, studying misinformation and public trust in PHAC. Future project areas include antimicrobial stewardship, childhood immunizations, mask-wearing, mental health, and climate change. They will apply the IMPActS model to shape perceptions and behaviours, which involves identifying policy challenges, mapping targeted changes, prototyping solutions, testing effectiveness, and scaling successful strategies. Notably, their efforts include supporting routine childhood immunization programs during the pandemic through collaboration with the Vaccine Behaviour and Confidence Team of PHAC. The use of behavioural science to nudge compliance often amounts to coercion, occurring subliminally without the public's awareness, undermining personal autonomy and trust. It raises ethical concerns about experimenting on individuals without consent and emphasizes the need for transparency from the agency about these techniques and their impact on public behaviour, particularly given the millions in taxpayer funding involved.

Elon Musk just told the world his plan to own the one thing every AI on Earth depends on. The silicon. The entire AI industry is fighting over the same layer. Models. Parameters. Data. Benchmarks. All of it runs on chips none of them produce. Every frontier lab on the planet is building intelligence on a foundation they do not control, in a country they cannot influence, on an island they could not defend. Musk: “You design a chip, you fabricate the chip, you test the chip, you redesign the chip, and you fabricate it again. All under one roof.” That’s the Terafab. One building in Austin, Texas. No wafers shipped across the Pacific. No six-month tape-out cycles. No single point of geopolitical failure sitting in the Taiwan Strait. Total vertical sovereignty over silicon. But sovereignty is not the endgame. Sovereignty is what makes the endgame possible. Speed. Every fab on Earth optimizes for yield. For cost. For predictable output at massive scale. The Terafab optimizes for one variable only. Learning speed. That distinction will define the next era of compute. When your iteration cycle compresses from months to days, perfection on the first attempt becomes irrelevant. What matters is how fast you reach the fiftieth. That is the exact principle that made SpaceX untouchable. They did not build a superior rocket on the first try. They built a system where failure was cheap and iteration was relentless. And that system produced something no one else could match. Now transplant that into semiconductors. Musk: “New physics. Wild and crazy things.” He is not trying to out-manufacture TSMC. He is trying to make TSMC’s entire model a relic of a slower era. TSMC cannot take radical bets on unproven architecture. Their customers demand predictability. Their margins demand stability. Their entire empire is built on perfecting what already works. Elon’s model is built on trying what has never worked. Repeatedly. At near-zero cost. Until it does. When the cost of failure approaches zero, breakthroughs stop being accidents. They become mathematically inevitable. Now add the layer that makes this permanent. xAI builds frontier AI. That AI assists in chip design. Better chips accelerate the AI. Faster AI designs better chips. That is not a production line. That is a compounding feedback loop with no external dependency. And nobody else on Earth can run it. Intel has fabs but no frontier AI. NVIDIA designs but does not fabricate. TSMC fabricates but does not design. Google designs but outsources production. Every one of them has a structural gap they cannot close. Elon is closing his. The AI that architects the chip. The fab that forges it. The vehicles and robots that run on it. The data they generate. The AI that trains on that data to design the next generation. Full circle. No seams. No permission required from any government, company, or supply chain on Earth. That is not a factory. That is a self-improving system with a physical body. A structure that manufactures upgrades to its own capacity to think. That has never existed before. Not as a concept. Not as a metaphor. As a building. Every era of human civilization was defined by whoever mastered its most critical substrate. Land built empires. Iron built armies. Oil built superpowers. The next substrate is compute. And a single facility in Austin is being designed to produce it in a closed loop that no competitor can replicate, no government can embargo, and no market force can interrupt. That is not a factory announcement. That is the foundation of the first self-reinforcing intelligence monopoly in the history of this species. And the loop only needs to start once.

India's Vulgar Content Crisis: How Algorithms, Greed, and the Erosion of a Generation Are Colliding in 2026 In 2026, open any Indian teenager’s Instagram or YouTube Shorts feed and you’ll see it: a relentless stream of suggestive reels, borderline explicit dances, and creators pushing every boundary for clicks. What began as occasional “bold” content has now become the default algorithm diet for millions. This isn’t organic cultural evolution—it’s engineered addiction, fueled by cold, hard incentives that reward the raciest material while quietly reshaping an entire generation’s sense of normal. The Numbers Don’t Lie—And They’re Alarming Official data from the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal shows a staggering 76,657 complaints of cybercrimes against women in 2025 alone—an increase of over 28,000 cases from the previous year. Sexually obscene material topped the list with 37,743 reports, followed closely by sexually explicit acts. At the same time, the government has issued repeated advisories to platforms demanding immediate removal of “obscene, vulgar, pornographic” content, warning of legal consequences for non-compliance. Yet the flood continues. Why? Because the system is designed to reward it. The Algorithm’s Poisonous Incentive Loop Social media platforms don’t care about culture—they care about watch time, comments, shares, and subscriptions. Provocative, sexually charged content consistently outperforms everything else: - Reels with “bold” hooks get 2–3x more watch time. - Controversial or suggestive posts trigger 4x more comments and shares. - Once a creator dips into semi-nude, twerking, or heavily sexualized fitness/glamour content, the algorithm pushes it harder—because engagement skyrockets. Creators aren’t stupid. Many started with dance, fashion, or comedy. Then they noticed the pattern: a slightly suggestive thumbnail or outfit = exponential growth. Instagram’s subscription model (where fans pay monthly for “exclusive” content) has turned this into a direct revenue stream. The more explicit the tease, the more subscribers pay to see what’s behind the paywall. It’s not art. It’s calculated escalation. Meanwhile, young viewers—especially impressionable teens—are being trained from their first scroll. The hyper-sexualization of children and teens on these platforms is no longer fringe; it’s algorithmic mainstream. Algorithms actively promote self-sexualized content from users as young as 12 because it drives insane engagement metrics. The Hidden Cultural and Psychological Cost This isn’t harmless entertainment. Constant exposure to vulgar, objectifying content is rewiring expectations: - Relationships become transactional and appearance-obsessed. - Body image issues explode among both boys and girls. - Respect, consent, and emotional depth take a backseat to shock value and dopamine hits. - A generation is learning that the fastest path to fame and money is self-objectification. India’s rich cultural heritage—rooted in restraint, family values, and spiritual depth—is being drowned out by a globalized, profit-driven race to the bottom. The same platforms that once promised connection and creativity are now the biggest distributors of cultural decay. It’s Not Just Creators—It’s Us Here’s the uncomfortable truth: every view, like, share, and subscription is a vote. We are the demand side of this supply chain. When we reward vulgarity, platforms and creators respond with more of it. The algorithm doesn’t have morals—it has metrics. We do. What Needs to Change—Now 1. Platforms must be held accountable. The government’s recent push for faster takedowns (now down to hours in some cases) and age-based classification of digital content is a start. But enforcement must be consistent and transparent. 2. Creators must choose integrity over virality. Real influence comes from substance, not skin. 3. Parents and educators need to wake up and actively monitor, discuss, and limit exposure. 4. Users must vote with their thumbs—follow, share, and pay for content that elevates rather than degrades. The sudden rise of vulgar content in India isn’t accidental. It’s the predictable outcome of unchecked algorithms meeting human greed in a hyper-connected society. If we don’t interrupt this cycle now, we won’t just lose our feeds—we’ll lose the values that define us as a civilization. The question isn’t whether this content exists. The question is: what kind of India are we building—one scroll at a time? What do you think—have you noticed this shift in your own feed? Drop your thoughts below. Let’s start the conversation that actually matters.

How to Build a Super Brand in the Age of Al. Marketing guru Seth Godin's understanding of branding and marketing has always revolved around trust, connection, resonance, and irreplaceable value. In an era where generative AI is rapidly proliferating and the marginal cost of content generation approaches zero, BrandAI synthesizes his core views on "brand building in the AI era" into the following key dimensions: 1. The End of "Average": When AI Makes Mediocrity Free, Remarkability is Mandatory Godin emphasizes that AI has reduced the marginal cost of producing "good enough" content, software, and marketing to zero. The Bankruptcy of Mediocrity: If a brand relies on generating formulaic text, generic visuals, or transactional service, AI will replace it at trivial cost. The "Purple Cow" Principle Amplified: Brands can no longer win on volume. Victory belongs to what is remarkable—truly worth talking about. In an age of infinite automated output, distinctiveness, friction, and bold choices stand out far more than polished perfection. 2. The Trust Economy: From Content Scarcity to Trust Scarcity In Godin’s view, a brand is not a logo or a slogan; it is a promise kept. In the AI era: Authenticity over Algorithm: As automated copy floods every channel, consumers develop a natural cynicism toward hyper-optimized messaging. Trust shifts toward human intent, vulnerability, and genuine lived experience. Accountability: AI can generate endless recommendations, but it cannot stand behind its work. Human brand leadership requires accountability—taking a stance and taking responsibility for outcomes. 3. Tribes & Identity: "People Like Us Do Things Like This" As traditional search engines evolve into AI-driven direct answers, traditional SEO and top-of-funnel acquisition models degrade. Godin advocates doubling down on community: The Smallest Viable Audience (SVA): Mass market appeals cater to the average, which AI now owns. Brands win by obsessing over a passionate niche and helping them express their identity. Direct Permission: Relying on third-party algorithms or intermediaries is risky. Owning a direct line of communication based on explicit consumer consent (permission marketing, direct subscriber bases, trusted ecosystems) is critical. 4. Leverage vs. Essence: AI as the Engine, Humans as the Intent Godin treats AI as a productivity tool rather than a brand builder: AI for Logistics, Humans for Empathy: AI excels at synthesizing data, drafting frameworks, and reducing operational friction. Human leaders provide empathy, culture, ethics, and strategic direction. Intentionality Over Execution: When execution becomes commoditized by generative tools, the ultimate competitive advantage becomes why you are building, who you are serving, and where you are leading them. Summary To Seth Godin, AI does not change what a brand is; it clarifies it. Building a brand in the AI era is not about out-producing algorithms, but about doubling down on what software cannot replicate: human connection, explicit trust, and meaningful shared identity.

Hello Dear $BRN Community🐝 We hope you’re all doing well and that everything is going smoothly. As for us, let us tell you what we’ve been up to. 🇳🇬Our game is now officially live in Nigeria, and our biggest goal right now is to reach as many players in Nigeria as possible and get them into EndlessClash. We want to share with you what we’ve been working on during this exciting phase. 🎥First, we created advertising creatives specifically tailored to the Nigerian market. We designed these creatives not only around the dynamics of the Nigerian market, but also around content that genuinely excites us and brings the energy of EndlessClash to players. 👨🏻‍💻We then prepared our advertising infrastructure and launched campaigns across Google Ads, Meta Ads, TikTok Ads, and Unity Ads. 🤩Our campaigns are currently still in the algorithm learning phase, but the initial results are very promising. In particular, creatives reaching 3.5% CTR are showing us that our market and content analysis is moving in the right direction. As we move forward, we will continue analyzing the data to identify which creatives can truly deliver scalable results. 🙋🏿At the same time, we have started working with leading gaming influencers in Nigeria. We will also be expanding our promotional efforts through local community channels and other media networks. 👨🏻‍💻But we are not focusing solely on user acquisition. We are continuously analyzing player behavior, event participation, and in-game activity to understand what is truly working and what still needs improvement. This allows us to identify which features players enjoy most, which systems need further development, and what kind of content creates the strongest engagement. 👨🏻‍💻Behind the scenes, our developer team is also continuing to work on new content, game improvements, and a better overall player experience. 🎯We are still at the beginning of this journey. But every step we take is backed by data. We measure what works, scale what performs, and continue improving what doesn’t. 🇳🇬Nigeria is only the beginning. 🌍We will continue taking EndlessClash to more players around the world, one step at a time. To everyone who has been with us throughout this process, supported us, and shared in our excitement thank you from the bottom of our hearts 🤍 And to everyone who has discovered us through EndlessClash , joined our community, and become part of this journey welcome👋🏻 We are only getting started. There is so much more to build, improve, and achieve together. 🦾Everything is just beginning. Get ready! #StrategyGame #mobilegames #GameDev

As we move forward, we will continue analyzing the data to identify which creatives can truly deliver scalable results. 🙋🏿At the same time, we have started working with leading gaming influencers in Nigeria. We will also be expanding our promotional efforts through local community channels and other media networks. 👨🏻‍💻But we are not focusing solely on user acquisition. We are continuously analyzing player behavior, event participation, and in-game activity to understand what is truly working and what still needs improvement. This allows us to identify which features players enjoy most, which systems need further development, and what kind of content creates the strongest engagement. 👨🏻‍💻Behind the scenes, our developer team is also continuing to work on new content, game improvements, and a better overall player experience. 🎯We are still at the beginning of this journey. But every step we take is backed by data. We measure what works, scale what performs, and continue improving what doesn’t. 🇳🇬Nigeria is only the beginning. 🌍We will continue taking EndlessClash to more players around the world, one step at a time. To everyone who has been with us throughout this process, supported us, and shared in our excitement thank you from the bottom of our hearts 🤍 And to everyone who has discovered us through EndlessClash , joined our community, and become part of this journey welcome👋🏻 We are only getting started. There is so much more to build, improve, and achieve together. 🦾Everything is just beginning. Get ready! #StrategyGame #mobilegames #GameDev
