Anthony Marcotte questioned the call, wondering if Tarasov could have made the save without Jake Evans in front of the net. He pointed out that the goalie was already on his knees and had been beat to his left, while Evans was on the right. Marcotte stated that he did not understand the decision or the interpretation of this rule. #Hockey #Règlement #Sport (translated)

The author argued that whether genocide was occurring in Gaza was not merely a matter of semantics, and said people who had previously made confident assertions were now quietly retreating from them. They rejected describing it as a borderline case, a matter of interpretation or an issue on which reasonable people could disagree.

The 2027 budget for national education, according to La France insoumise, indeed foresees a decrease compared to inflation, as well as the elimination of nearly 1,600 teaching positions, but the government disputes this interpretation of the figures. #BudgetEducation #FranceInsoumise #Inflation (translated)

Baha described the excitement surrounding the events in Saxony-Anhalt as exaggerated and wrote that actions are being taken there at one's own discretion. Schulze's previous promises were seen as unrealistic; the CDU is not solely responsible, but also all those who believed they could replace a parliamentary majority with a specific stance. The author pointed out that the SPD and the Greens also voted with the AfD when it suited them, accusing them of only observing the firewall in the case of the Union. Political observers, in his view, have no connection to reality in the country. The criticism does not come from Magdeburg, but from an "ivory tower," in which the Union is collectively portrayed as the sole culprit. No one takes responsibility for the failure of their own interpretation of the firewall against the right, wrote Baha. #Politik #SachsenAnhalt #CDU (translated)

Disinformation for hire – the network of 70 fake newsrooms sold as a service The websites looked local. Naija Pulse appeared to cover Nigeria, Echo Berlin Germany, The British Daily Britain, Fifty States the United States and Commonwealth Post Australia. Each had its own branding, articles, supposed journalists and matching social-media presence. Taken individually, they resembled small independent news outlets. According to Anthropic, however, they were parts of a single commercial influence network spanning six continents. Anthropic’s September 2026 threat report identifies the operation as GTG-54002, a commercial “influence-as-a-service” network that used Claude to generate and rewrite political content at industrial scale. Investigators linked roughly 70 fabricated news websites to around 70 matching X accounts and more than 250 additional inauthentic commenting accounts designed to create the appearance of genuine public engagement. The network produced at least 8,913 articles in about 20 languages before Anthropic disrupted the activity. The significance of the case is not simply the number of fake sites. It is the business model. The network did not consistently promote one government, party or ideology. Anthropic found that its political position changed according to the apparent interests of different customers. The company therefore described it as a commercial influence operation: political manipulation offered in much the same way as other outsourced digital services. A fake media ecosystem built at scale Anthropic says the infrastructure was created rapidly. Domains were registered from France during a roughly ten-week period in mid-2025 and deployed through shared technical infrastructure, allowing investigators to connect publications that outwardly appeared unrelated. Most of the supporting social-media accounts were also created within a narrow timeframe in June and July 2025. The sites were designed to look like functioning local newsrooms rather than anonymous propaganda pages. Articles carried fabricated bylines belonging to journalists who, according to Anthropic, did not exist. Each outlet had a corresponding account on X, while a second layer of fake profiles commented on and amplified the articles. Many of those accounts used AI-generated profile photographs. The result was a three-tier structure: the newsroom published the story, the branded social account distributed it, and apparently ordinary users supplied the appearance of public reaction. Some of those sites remained publicly visible after the operation was exposed. The British Daily, for example, described itself as providing “conservative insights” on British sovereignty and migration, while Commonwealth Post presented itself as an Australian liberal publication focused on democracy, migration and regional security. Those contrasting editorial identities illustrate the central feature identified by Anthropic: the network was capable of taking different political positions in different markets. Claude as a publishing engine Claude was not simply asked to draft occasional articles. The operators built a structured production pipeline around it. Prompts required fixed JSON outputs, formatted HTML, precise character limits and internal links, allowing articles to move directly into an automated publishing workflow. The system could generate entirely new material or take reporting produced by legitimate journalists and rewrite it to fit a desired political perspective. Anthropic identified three recurring techniques. The same source article could be rewritten in opposite ideological directions for different audiences; a political interpretation could be added to a story that originally contained none; and material could be moved from one country to another after its original context had been removed. The articles were also structured to improve the apparent authority of the sites in search engines, helping the network imitate ordinary digital publishing practices rather than simply broadcasting propaganda. This is where generative AI changes the economics of an influence operation. A conventional network of dozens of supposedly local publications would normally require writers, translators, editors and social-media staff. Here, much of that production could be standardised and automated while human operators concentrated on political direction, customer requirements and distribution. The DRC–Rwanda conflict as a test case The clearest concentration of activity involved the Democratic Republic of Congo. Anthropic identified 318 articles concerning the DRC across the fake-news network. The material generally supported positions aligned with the Congolese government, particularly on regional mineral agreements and tensions with Rwanda. Early in the network’s growth, many of the fake social-media personas following and amplifying its accounts also presented themselves as Congolese. Investigators observed one especially revealing episode on 11 September 2025, when multiple sites published almost identical articles about the DRC–Rwanda conflict within approximately three minutes of one another. The wording and political tone were adjusted for different regional audiences, while associated X accounts distributed the links in a coordinated pattern. Anthropic said the activity contained signals suggesting that one or more customers had interests connected to the DRC–Rwanda conflict. It did not, however, identify those customers and explicitly stated that it found no evidence that any government had directed the operation. That distinction is essential. The content may have benefited a political actor without demonstrating that the actor commissioned or controlled it. Influence without ideology Commercialisation is what distinguishes GTG-54002 from many state-linked information operations. A government propaganda network usually has an identifiable strategic direction. A commercial influence provider does not need one. Its infrastructure can support one position in one country and the opposite position somewhere else, provided different customers are willing to pay. That makes attribution more difficult. Analysts cannot necessarily infer the operator from the ideology of the content because ideology may simply be part of the service package. The enduring asset is the infrastructure: domains, publishing systems, fake journalists, social-media accounts and automated amplification. Anthropic says the operation was disrupted before it achieved significant genuine reach. It classified GTG-54002 as Category Two on the Brookings Breakout Scale: material circulated across the network’s own sites and associated social accounts but showed no evidence of substantial penetration into authentic communities. Most of the 8,913 articles generated little observable engagement from real users. That limited impact is important. The case should not be presented as a successful global manipulation campaign. It is better understood as evidence that the infrastructure required to run such campaigns has become cheaper, faster and increasingly commoditised. The deeper shift is that a fake media ecosystem no longer has to be built around a single political cause. It can be built once, automated and then repurposed for the next customer. Disinformation, in this model, is no longer only a political instrument as it turend into the service.

🚨🚨💣 BIG CASE SURROUNDING MOHAMED "MOMO" SANHADJI, head of security for the French national team for over 20 years. 🇫🇷😳 The investigation revealed by L'Équipe describes how this man, who has become extremely close to many stars of French football, allegedly used his connections to obtain loans, gifts, trips, and personal services. Among the disclosed elements 👇 💰 To buy a house for €440,000, Sanhadji is said to have asked for money from about fifteen players. €215,000 was ultimately loaned to him, notably: • Kylian Mbappé, through Fayza Lamari: €120,000 • Raphaël Varane: €20,000 • Sabri Lamouchi: €20,000 • Laurent Blanc: €20,000 • Yann M’Vila: €15,000 • Mattéo Guendouzi: €7,500 🤫 He allegedly asked several to keep these loans secret, even writing: "otherwise I’m dead." 🦷 Fayza Lamari also supposedly paid €7,000 for his dental expenses. The Mbappé family also financed the travel of their sons' football club for a tournament and invited him and his family to PSG-Bayern in 2023, including a night at the Royal Monceau. 📲 His closeness with the Mbappé clan was such that Fayza Lamari supposedly went through him to send messages to Didier Deschamps, notably after Kylian Mbappé was not selected in the fall of 2024. She also allegedly asked him to intervene with the coach regarding Rayan Cherki. ✈️ Sanhadji also allegedly solicited several personalities to finance his vacations. After facilitating administrative procedures for relatives of Franck Ribéry, he was offered a stay in Sicily worth €6,000. 🇲🇦 Jamel Debbouze allegedly invited him to his riad in Morocco, with a driver and buggy, after Sanhadji secured a spot for his son in a highly sought-after training at Clairefontaine. 🎟️ In 2022, Patrice Evra allegedly offered him €10,000 if he managed to retrieve 80 tickets for the Champions League final Liverpool-Real Madrid at the Stade de France. 💶 Mattéo Guendouzi also allegedly considered donating part of his bonuses from the 2022 World Cup to the police accompanying the French team. Sanhadji allegedly asked him to keep it "very discreet" and to have it justified accountably. ⚖️ Mohamed Sanhadji is currently being charged and is under judicial control. Philippe Diallo explained to the investigators that his behavior was contrary to the ethical and deontological charter of the FFF. His entourage contests the interpretation of certain elements and indicates that he "will reserve his statements for the justice system." 🇫🇷 #Football #FF #Enquête (translated)

Pfizer-DNA gevonden in harttumor van jonge man na vaccinatie: 'Dit is de smoking gun' https://t.co/pmwu33zLr0 Even snel gescreend. Belangwekkend artikel. Dit is voor mij echter de crux van het verhaal, omdat ik dit al heel lang vermoed. En ik zeg het heel voorzichtig - dit zou ook de oorzaak kunnen zijn voor de waarneming van velen over de zogenaamde 'turbo-kankers'. Strikt genomen betekent het aantonen van plasmide DNA in een tumor nog niet dat dit ook de oorzaak is van het ontstaan van de tumor. Ik denk dat de relatie tussen vaccinatie met een #mRNAvaccin en het ontstaan cq progressie van een tumor veel complexer is. En dat vatten @NicHulscher et al. heel mooi samen: "The more parsimonious interpretation of this discrepancy is therefore not that mRNA vaccination initiated this malignancy de novo, but that a small, occult and clinically silent sarcoma was already present at the time of vaccination and that its growth and metastatic behavior were then drastically accelerated." "A lesion of that size may have been undetectable by any available means, and might have remained indolent, been contained by immune surveillance, or never become clinically manifest." "This is the phenotype the concurrent-hit model predicts: not a uniform excess of new cancers, but accelerated progression and metastatic outgrowth in susceptible hosts, including those carrying dormant micrometastases or occult residual disease." On this account the relevant mechanisms are those of tumor promotion rather than initiation: sustained inflammation, impaired immune surveillance, immune tolerance associated with IgG4 class switching, and the structural genomic instability documented in tissue following mRNA vaccination. "This framework accords with the population-level data, in which excess cancer risk was detectable within a single year of vaccination — an interval far too short for the initiation of most solid tumors, but fully compatible with the acceleration of pre-existing subclinical disease — and it is the mechanism proposed for the rapid post-vaccination malignancies catalogued elsewhere." De mRNA-vaccins: the gift that keeps on giving. #vaccinatie #gezondheid #kanker

Amann hat es wieder getan. Knapp anderthalb Stunden versucht sie, @JasminKosubek als zumindest ehemalige „Kreml-Sprechpuppe“ darzustellen. Besonders bemerkenswert wird es ab etwa Minute 20. Amann lässt einen Ausschnitt aus einer alten Sendung einspielen und gibt anschließend dessen Inhalt wieder. Das Problem: Ihre Zusammenfassung hat mit dem Inhalt des Einspielers kaum etwas zu tun. Was im Einspieler tatsächlich thematisiert wird: Die deutsche Fregatte „Augsburg“ war zum Begleitschutz des französischen Flugzeugträgers „Charles de Gaulle“ abkommandiert worden. Von diesem Träger aus wurden Luftangriffe (mehr als 5.200) gegen den Islamischen Staat in Syrien geflogen. Aufgabe der „Augsburg“ war es, den Flugzeugträger zu schützen und damit dessen Einsatzfähigkeit sicherzustellen. https://t.co/JalEbuCr9h Die Bundeswehr beschrieb den Auftrag selbst entsprechend: Die „Augsburg“ war aus ihrem vorherigen Einsatz herausgelöst und dem französischen Trägerverband für den Kampf gegen den IS zugeordnet worden. Auch die im Beitrag wiedergegebenen Aussagen Baschar al-Assads sind keineswegs das, was Amann anschließend daraus macht. Assad argumentiert dort, der IS könne nur wirksam bekämpft werden, wenn mit syrischen Soldaten und der syrischen Bevölkerung zusammengearbeitet werde. Luftangriffe allein würden dafür nicht ausreichen. Die britischen Luftangriffe nennt er "illegal". Anschließend ordnet ein Politiker den Bundeswehreinsatz als völkerrechtlich problematischen beziehungsweise als Kriegseinsatz in Syrien ein. Und wie fasst @MelAmann diesen Einspieler gegenüber Kosubek zusammen, die ihn im Podcast selbst nicht sehen kann? Sinngemäß behauptet sie, die Fregatte sei (immer noch) im Einsatz gegen Schlepper gewesen und Assad habe die Luftangriffe als (völker)rechtswidrig bezeichnet. Beides entspricht nicht dem Inhalt des gezeigten Beitrags. Gerade journalistisch ist das ein erhebliches Problem. Hier geht es nicht um unterschiedliche Interpretationen oder politische Bewertungen. Es geht darum, wer im Beitrag was gesagt hat und welchen Auftrag die Fregatte zu diesem Zeitpunkt hatte. Das sind überprüfbare Tatsachen. Noch abstruser ist die Gesprächssituation: Kosubek soll sich für eine Jahre zurückliegende Sendung rechtfertigen, bekommt den Einspieler selbst aber nicht zu sehen und muss sich deshalb darauf verlassen, dass Amann dessen Inhalt korrekt wiedergibt. Umso höher wäre hier die journalistische Pflicht zur präzisen und vollständigen Wiedergabe gewesen. @MelAmann, wie kann es passieren, dass Sie den gezeigten Beitrag in gleich mehreren zentralen Punkten falsch wiedergeben und diese Wiedergabe anschließend als Grundlage für die Kritik an Ihrer Gesprächspartnerin verwenden? (Rhetorische Frage. Sie sind in meinen Augen keine seriöse Journalistin, sondern linke Aktivistin.) Wer anderen journalistische oder propagandistische Verfehlungen vorhalten will, sollte beim elementarsten journalistischen Handwerk anfangen: Quellen korrekt wiedergeben. Dass „Funke“ den Podcast so abgenommen hat, ist ein Beleg dafür, dass es hier nicht um seriösen Journalismus geht. Amann fabuliert kurz darauf von faktentreuen und realitätsgetreuen Schilderungen. Realsatire. Ob der Kreml diese Propaganda auch abgesegnet hätte? #Journalismus #Medienkritik #Bundeswehr

J’ai eu le plaisir de lancer l’événement de la Ligue islamique mondiale consacré à l’éthique de l’intelligence artificielle, dans ses deux dimensions religieuse et civilisationnelle, avec le soutien et la participation de haut niveau des Nations Unies, dans le cadre de la Semaine de haut niveau de la 81ᵉ session de son Assemblée générale, à New York. J’ai également eu le plaisir d’accueillir les représentants des plus grandes entreprises d’intelligence artificielle des États-Unis, de la Banque mondiale, de prestigieuses universités américaines, ainsi que les principaux candidats au poste de Secrétaire général des Nations Unies, ainsi qu’un grand nombre de personnalités religieuses, intellectuelles, politiques et universitaires, et de centres d’études spécialisés dans la recherche sur l’éthique de l’intelligence artificielle. Je me suis tout autant réjoui de la recommandation formulée par la conférence de confier à l’Alliance des civilisations des Nations Unies l’élaboration du code de l’Alliance des civilisations pour l’éthique de l’intelligence artificielle ( UNAOC, code of Ethics for AI ), ainsi que de l’acceptation de cette recommandation par l’Alliance. Dans le cadre de cet événement, j’ai annoncé que la Ligue islamique mondiale lancera, en coopération avec plusieurs entreprises technologiques, un laboratoire d’intelligence artificielle chargé de développer des programmes destinés aux institutions religieuses, éducatives et humanitaires œuvrant dans le domaine religieux. J’ai également annoncé que la Ligue œuvrera à la numérisation d’un certain nombre de sources et d’ouvrages islamiques et arabes afin de les rendre accessibles aux entreprises d’intelligence artificielle, dans le respect des droits de propriété intellectuelle. J’ai enfin annoncé la création d’une unité spéciale chargée de détecter et de corriger les erreurs de traduction. De nombreuses erreurs ont en effet été relevées dans la traduction de certains textes islamiques et des sciences qui leur sont liées, dans certains contenus générés par l’intelligence artificielle. Elles ont donné lieu à des interprétations sans rapport avec la réalité et ont engendré des perceptions et des convictions profondément erronées. #ÉthiqueAI #IntelligenceArtificielle #LigueIslamiqueMondiale
