DEMOCRACY IS THE OTHER FACE OF FASCISM
Since two years we live in a state of emergency without end, following the advance of a virus that has become a global pandemic. Sooner or later it had to happen in a globalized and capitalist world that for mere profit destroys the natural environment, where goods and people move in a short time from one end of the planet to another (and only the poor are rejected at the borders) and where more than half of the world’s population lives crowded in mega-urbanized cities.
The emergency proclaimed, however, has been used by the state not to put hand to the health sector, decimated by continuous cuts that governments have made over the years and that have caused so many preventable deaths (not only because of the virus), but in order to accelerate all those authoritarian and coercive mechanisms of which the democratic regime is capable.
We are not only talking about the compulsory vaccination for certain categories (health workers, teachers, over 50) about which there would be much to discuss, but especially about the social control put in place, not least the instrument of the Green Passport, which is still only a step towards the race to forced digitization of all the data that concern us. Controlling and trading digital data, as we know, is the new frontier of “surveillance capitalism,” which through emergency management is gaining momentum.
From tracking apps to facial recognition cameras, from the internet of things to artificial intelligence, technology at the service of masters and states, which was not born to simplify our existence but to monitor us, will be increasingly present in our lives, but it is only with the digitization of data and their transmission (5G, ultra-wideband) and interconnection (home automation, smart-city) that this will be possible. It is no coincidence that the PNRR of the Draghi government, the Italian Recovery Fund financed with European money, for a large part serves to channel astronomical sums towards surveillance technologies and the digital modernization of all essential sectors: school, work, telecommunications networks, mobility and health (with telemedicine). It is also not by chance that the Draghi government has made it easier for public administration bodies and institutions to collect and process personal data, through an article of the Capienze Decree that last October abrogated article 2 of the Privacy Code, also reducing the role of the Guarantor in charge of data protection.
For many people perhaps it is not a problem that their data are used by private companies, multinationals and state institutions, through massive surveillance. People still think that because they do nothing wrong, their data is not a secret. But social control is never something that concerns only the sphere of personal freedoms and privacy; there are several reasons to oppose the digitalization of data and invasive tools such as the Green pass, among the most immediate: from the ease of the employer in monitoring his own employee (and riders and Amazon employees know something about it!) to those living in a situation of forced illegality (see undocumented migrants) who see their lives continuously threatened by the increase of increasingly sophisticated monitoring devices. Let’s not forget then the discrimination of those who already today do not have access to new technologies, that is often the poorest people in society, who see their access to rights and social services undermined, conquered years ago at the cost of hard struggles.

On the evening of Friday 28 January on the heights of Renneville, a relay antenna immolated itself as a sign of solidarity with all those arrested, charged with the fight against forced digitization. The last arrest on Wednesday 26 January* in the investigation concerning the fire of the antenna of Les Cars in Limoges, left him no other choice to express his anger.
Without regrets
* Attaque note: for this last arrest, see for example here. For the other arrests for this case, last June, here. The claim of the magnificent fire of the antennas of the Cars site is here.

France: Sabotage of antennas in Les Cars, Limoges
On Monday, January 11, a sabotage took place on the relay of Les Cars. The fire destroyed the tower of the antenna disrupting the broadcasting of radio, TV and the telephone network on a large territory. The press release :
Monday 11 January 2021
Operation “voice of the wind and songs of birds
The Committee to Abolish 5G and its World (CLA5GSM) has been around for a very long time
perhaps for as long as we can remember
the movements we have founded over the centuries have had different names and different leaders, but all of them were in one way or another part of our war against 5G. Continue reading “Renneville (Haute-Garonne), France: Burning of a relay antenna”
On the night of January 11 to 12, a 5G relay antenna was sabotaged in Toulouse in the Septs-Deniers district.
That week, three strikes followed one another: hospital and medical-social, garbage collectors, education. No sector will be spared by austerity. We wanted to participate in the convergence of struggles, by touching where control and the new economy converge: the digital.

In the night of November 2nd to 3rd 2021, we led a coordinated attack against three cell towers around Saint-Etienne by setting them on fire.
(And not one, as the media tried to make believe!)
This cut off telephone communications and momentarily interrupted the dependency that the techno-world needs to survive.
(We could take as an example the Thales arms factory in the neighboring town or the 80.000 people deprived of telephones for the week but there are many others…)
We did not want to attack only a new aspect of technology (5G), but to assert our hostility against this company as a whole.
Long live the revolt
Long live fire
And long live more waterproof K-ways!

THE TRUTH CAN BE UPSETTING BUT IT IS STILL THE TRUTH
In the night between 1st and 2nd September we were stopped in Via Cavour and accused of having put up posters without permission. A simple administrative sanction was not enough for the police, they wanted to pile it on by charging us with “publication or spreading of fake, exaggerated or tendentious news aimed at upsetting public order” (Art. 656 of the penal code). To be accused of spreading fake news precisely by those who defend a system which always lies, manipulating and terrorizing the population with the aim of legitimatizing the most abject political and repressive practices is paradoxical to say the least.
But what did those posters say that was fake?
Is it not true perhaps that society is aiming for the complete digitalization of every aspect of our lives, even the most intimate? Continue reading “Italy: The truth can be upsetting but it is still the truth”

It’s that time again!
“Hamburg expects the world” is the headline of the Hamburger Abendblatt. At the first “World Congress” in Hamburg since the G20 meeting in 2017, refugees from Syria or Afghanistan are of course not expected, no, 12000 experts will meet from 11.10.-15.10.2021 in the Hamburg exhibition halls and the CCH to design a BEAUTIFUL NEW smart WORLD of the future; the focus is on “intelligent” traffic systems, autonomous driving, drones….
We don’t want that future. The supposedly climate-friendly, people-friendly, projects presented here are not to be had without total control and surveillance and are supposed to generate profits as always in capitalism and not too scarce (among other things by reducing the cost factor of workers* but also with all other tried and tested means of capitalism…). To mess up the algorithms, we sabotaged the control technology at the 10 km long test track with fire at three places. We also caused glass to break at FREENOW’s German headquarters on Neumühlen Street.
“Autonomous driving is our future” and for that we need a nationwide 5G mobile network says VW boss Diess, who has recently outed himself as a sympathizer of the party “The Greens”. VW subsidiaries Moia and WeShare are expected to bring in billions in sales in the future. Moia will begin test drives of robot cabs in the Hamburg districts of Winterhude, Uhlenhorst and Hohenfelde in early 2022. In 2025, several dozen autonomous buses are to be on the road. Transport Senator Tjarks with the Green Party wants thousands of autonomous buses, supposedly to push back individual traffic. But they would also have to be cheaper, he says. If at other places personnel are saved or costs on the shoulders of others are turned over, that can be furnished surely. The main thing is to make a profit. Continue reading “Hamburg, Germany: Sabotage of test track for autonomous driving (TAVF) before the start of the “World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems” (ITS) and glass breakage at FREE NOW headquarters”
Neither nuke nor 5G!
In the heights of the outskirts of Nancy, this August 18, a 5G antenna burned. ‘Neither nuke nor 5G!’ was tagged on a wall of the enclosure that protected the access.
This was one of many responses to the government’s obstinacy in forcing through its project to digitalize the world. This year will also be decisive for the nuclear waste burial project in Bure, which is also gaining ground despite local and wider opposition that has been going on for years. Nuclear and 5G are the pillars of a deadly industry.
Solidarity to all those charged as a result of these fights!
