Measured over 4 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 15, 2026.
Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 4 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 44 interactions against 198K followers, an engagement rate of 0.022%. Posts are seen about 1.6K times each, and 2.71% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.808% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.4 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 4 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 25% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 20K interactions, about 444x its own typical post. Only 4 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 11:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 100% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 25% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 100% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 25% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 1039 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

People understandably want to know how AI actually kills everyone. We made a video about one such scenario. https://t.co/WBQ7tEIJxk

ICE is using Israeli zero click spyware called Graphite that can compromise phones and expose Signal and WhatsApp messages without breaking their encryption. ICE says itโs using the capability against fentanyl traffickers and foreign terrorist organisations, but Israelโs export approvals allow Graphite to be sold for much broader government use. Thatโs one of the investigations in my drafts folder and Iโll publish it in the coming hours. See below for a link to my drafts folder. Iโm looking beyond the $2M ICE contract at Paragon Solutions, the Israeli company that built Graphite, its connections to Israeli Military Intelligence Unit 8200 and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, named journalists and civil society figures previously targeted, and the wider Israeli offensive surveillance industry exporting these capabilities globally. Iโll publish a shorter version here, but @Substack gives me room for the technical details, people, companies, contracts, data and connections that donโt fit. Everything stays compact and information heavy. Iโve opened my drafts folder so you can see what Iโm investigating before I publish it and contribute insights, data or stories you think I should prioritise. ๐บ๐ธ While the West condemns China over surveillance, suppression of expression and human rights, Western governments are using spyware to target political opponents, journalists and activists, expanding facial recognition and surveillance, working with military contractors on predictive policing, and making agreements with companies like Meta to expand identity verification while claiming itโs about keeping children safe online. ๐ซ๐ท I investigate the companies, investors, governments, intelligence links, legislation and incentives behind this expansion: AI PR stunts, privacy harms caused by ChatGPT, surveillance enabling legislation across the US, UK, Ireland and France, and new powers in countries like Australia that increase government access to personal devices. ๐ช๐บ I also look at AI moderation and legislation designed to suppress political dissent and make people censor themselves once identity verification is rolled out because they fear permanent bans without human appeal, and EU proposals such as Chat Control designed to force foreign companies to monitor private messages and posts for EU citizens while officials promote data sovereignty and protection from foreign surveillance. ๐ฎ๐ฑ Thatโs only a small part of it. The same companies, technologies, governments, investors and incentives keep appearing across these stories. Iโll eventually map those relationships to show how a relatively small group of people and organisations are shaping technology and legislation that expand surveillance, identity controls and government access across the AI and digital services people increasingly rely on every day. X and LinkedIn make it difficult to find new posts or see everything Iโve written, so LinkedIn readers convinced me to write on Substack. Everything is free and a community is forming around privacy, surveillance, personal digital safety and government power. If you want to see each investigation when I publish it, create a free account and follow me there, or subscribe for the weekly digest. If you know someone who cares about privacy, surveillance, AI, cybercrime or government power, send them this. https://t.co/s8jknd5QiM

MN House Republicans voted to limit restrictions on data centers Data center incentives are the latest footnote in the One Big Beautiful Bill to be scrutinized, and for rural Minnesotans, thereโs a good reason why. All four of Minnesotaโs Republican members of Congress voted for the OBBB, which creates a tax credit for investment and infrastructure in rural areas. In that tax credit, hyperscale data centers are specifically mentioned as one of the qualifying large-scale investments. #mnleg
