We kicked off the public delivery by recapping our key development milestones to date
This month we achieved another ENORMOUS development milestone: nodes can now send, receive & most importantly verify encrypted messages on our platform. This is a huge leap forward for PQ!
1/
Thanks in part to funding injected into PQ by @tl_eng subscriptions we're proud to now be at 85% complete on Phase 2 funding. Only 15% to go til we burst into the final phase!! Help us get there ASAP by donating at panquake.com/donate or subscribe: talkliberation.com

Geeky stuff alert! Panquake has now:
* Begun authoring our own custom Panquake messaging protocol (this is hugely significant)
* Moved from dev to testing phase for the authentication service
* Validated P2P network messaging
* Begun process of implementing our microservices
3/
Geeky language like "microservices" might not make a lot of sense to some people so we broke down exactly what we mean when we say it: it's the compartmentalization of key system components to make them way more secure, easier to scale & extend. They fortify the network

This month's @Pan_quake 'State of the Business' testimony comes from the amazing @_taylorhudak, who discusses her past and present experience of working for us as well as her hopes for the future of both Panquake and @tl_eng

Transparency is important to us, so we provided very healthy metrics from our organically-growing privacy-focused internet news service 'Talk Liberation - Your Worldwide Internet Report' (@tl_eng) which is educating users (& us!) as well as providing additional funding to PQ
6/
We discussed the impending launch of 'Talk Liberation Investigates' - a new section of @tl_eng authored by @seanodiggity & myself where in this coming month we will be breaking massively significant exclusive content based on primary source material about very relevant topics
7/
Recently I teased on Twitter that something's coming. 1000's of WikiLeaks supporters will be directly affected by what we will release, several hundred will be deeply personally affected & this exclusive will give the public an enhanced understanding of what's been occurring
8/
And that wrapped our September Public Delivery presentation - our 8th since we first brought an idea to the public and you all threw your support behind us so we could make it a reality. Your continued support will get us through Phase 3 to BETA release & we can't wait!!
You can watch the full public delivery event on our Vimeo channel here:
I'M BACK for the 1st time in 20 months.. but only briefly. I resurrected this account so I could hand it to my team to run.
I'll explain why in the below thread & briefly recap the last ~15 years that led to this
There hasn't been a minute that I stopped working for you all

I'll start with Panquake: it is ALIVE. Given we posted 62 campaign updates to date I assumed that was obvious but it seems Twitter's silencing of the widely followed @Panquake account really did break the communication lines with some supporters.
All the latest news & updates on PQ development progress, including the exciting announcement that we are now ready to show the world the look & feel of the PQ interface!
Follow the thread for more details:

You may have noticed the recent tweet by @JohnKiriakou endorsing PQ.
John is one of the first people in the world to see the PQ application working & described it as 'futuristic'.
It was huge for us to get to demo PQ for him in this way & we can't wait til you can see it too!
Ppl constantly ask me for my opinion on what is going on. When I give it, many assume I am coming from a fixed position. Actually, every single day I consume the following:
I also watch all the press conferences, be they pro or anti Western position
When you review such a spectrum of media content on a regular basis you see the way single events are skewed not just by one of two sides, but by every single outlet
They ALL have their own slants
2/?
I also watch both left & right wing podcasts & you tube shows. I follow & watch people I like and ideologically align with AND those who I don't, every single day
Living in Russia, I also have real world experience/perspective
As for @Panquake dev progress last month we revealed our interface had functioning elements in place. This month, the core structural components are basically complete
Our drag & drop panels move around & reset correctly & are now customizable - resizable, pop-outable & more
First thing I see: the site uses tracking cookies.
Second thing I see: it collects email addresses & phone numbers.
Third thing I see: Advertising on its dashboard.
That isn't alternative social media.
It's the same old data surveillance rehashed.
Having a closer look. Here's their privacy policy. Which is basically an anti-privacy policy.
GETTR is registered in the United States & thus subject to US jurisdiction.
So, it's Parler 2.0.
After some lip service to claiming they only collect what you voluntarily give them (incl your SEARCHES!), scroll down a little bit further & find they actually fingerprint your browser, device & router info
(Panquake is engineered to avoid capturing of ANY of this information)
