This week, Israel actually marks its 76th Independence Day.

Some call it the Nakba, like Jewish Voice for Peace among others.

Environment Minister, Paulina Hennig-Kloska, said the investment would be in the public interest and align with Poland's energy and climate policies.

Some more greenwashing then, in the name of _ public interest._

US citizens don't need to fear any Russian disinformation video campaign, just themselves. Remember Pizzagate? No video was needed for this one to stick.

But they promised...

So this title claims that

US intelligence spotted Chinese, Iranian deepfakes in 2020 aimed at influencing US voters

After that we get nothing but in more words:

It’s unclear what was depicted in the deepfakes

The NSA declined to comment.

And some bits that kinda contradict the danger implied in the title

The Chinese and Iranian operatives never disseminated the deepfake audio or video publicly

While they didn’t deploy their deepfakes in 2020, Iranian government operatives

At the time, some US officials who reviewed the intelligence were unimpressed, believing it showed China and Iran lacked the capability to deploy deepfakes in a way that would seriously impact the 2020 presidential election

Finally, we arrive to the funniest part:

This story has been updated with additional information.

So the info is that there is no info? And this was written by 3 people? Give us a break CNN

The brothers created 16 Ethereum validators and targeted three specific traders who operated MEV bots, the indictment said.

To activate 1 validator you need 32 ETH. So for the 16 validators they got, it would be 512 ETH. Prices in December 2022 for eth were around 1200$. So they "invested" in this fraud over 600,000$.

Today's eth price is around 3000$ so they'd be having over 1.5 mil, if they weren't that greedy

I don't think business insider qualifies as fake news site. Does it?
