Oh, great, my country is in the news again. Oh, wait, it's bad news, again. Here's some better news: the students have blocked all the universities and other people are joining the protests in hopes of overthrowing the authoritarian regime. The corruption has reached peak levels and is actually killing people. The government is doing it's best to stay in power, but no real, mass violence has been applied just yet. People have given up on elections because they are demonstrably fixed and can't change anything. I don't know how this will end.

Israel sells surveillance software to everyone. That’s probably their main source foreign currency besides the worst hummus at any grocery.

This isn’t anti-semitism, for the record. I’m criticizing Israel’s IT sector, specifically (and Sabra), for being too focused on selling zero-day exploits to police and spy agencies. It’s despicable and needs to be stopped or we’re all worse off. All zero-day viruses discovered by any government agency should be reported immediately to the company. Especially in a “democracy.” But especially in a democracy.
