Eynelys, we love you

October was a really hard month for Panquake but we still moved forward. Below are the key campaign metrics. We are now only $23,192 away from capping Phase 2 and moving into the final BETA delivery round. Please help us get there ASAP: panquake.com/donate

3/
In Sept we announced we'd successfully authenticated nodes on our test network & they'd sent received & verified encrypted messages. This month the rest of the authentication service functionality has been built out and tested. As promised, users can be anonymous/unregistered

4/
Every month we transparently publish our (very impressive) @tl_eng stats & metrics. ALL money earned by @talkliberation publications goes directly to supporting the @pan_quake build. So subscribing at talkliberation.com helps to bring Panquake to the world faster

5/
Why is a software development company, spending time & energy on tech and data journalism?
Because the facility for recurring payments/revenue that talkliberation.com provides makes Panquake more sustainable & less dependent upon generosity, & for all of these reasons:

6/
October was the launch of Talk Liberation Investigates & our flagship series #WLDragnet

We smacked straight into the tip of an iceberg & in the coming days & weeks we'll be unearthing the monolith beneath it

Subscribe today if you haven't already: talkliberation.com

7/
With your support we're going to deliver our next generation social media app to the world. Privacy, freedom of expression and data sovereignty are coming your way. We won't stop til we push through Phase 3 & have everything in place to deliver the service quality you deserve.
Thus concluded our 9th public meeting. We have kept our promise of being accountable to our community & keeping them in the know every single month as to our progress. It's amazing that what was only an idea at the beginning of this year is now becoming a reality. Thank you all!

THREAD: Now complete, w/ new images, evidence & quotes:

#WLDragnet Part 1. Social Media Mercenaries: CIA & DoD-connected Organizations Mapping WikiLeaks Supporters
talkliberation.substack.com/p/wikileaksjul…

Part 2: Social Media Mass Surveillance COMING SOON!

Key Pt 1 findings in the below thread
How vast is the US-led intelligence operation targeting WikiLeaks? To whom was ex-CIA Director Mike Pompeo referring when he coined the phrase ‘Assange and his ilk’?

These are the initial questions addressed in this groundbreaking series from @tl_eng by myself & @seanodiggity
The #WLDragnet investigation is based on multi-source primary documents, including from US defense contractors, government agencies & House Intelligence Committee testimony. None of the documents were obtained from hacking or leaking. We have published a repository of the files

Some quick points you should know about the current status of #WLDragnet

* Our most significant, far-reaching evidence & conclusions are not yet in the piece but will be soon

* We worked day & night on this release to try & prepare it ASAP, but the scope of it is enormous

1/
* Remaining to come: comprehensive testimonies of affected WL supporters, data analysis related to that & trail of evidence that leads far beyond NodeXL or Graphika & straight to US military agencies targeting Julian

* The implications/impact is global & not limited to WL

2/
* Also still to go into the piece, a significant number of official statements and reactions by high profile persons named in #WLDragnet that we collected over the course of the last few days

* A deeper dive into the targeting of each of those people will occur in follow-ups

It's here: the PQ September Delivery Video

Full details in the thread below :D
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

Dear @KiwibankNZ

As a foundation customer & a business owner I need to know when your IT department is going to UNBLOCK your international customers like me from accessing our own accounts & our funds

You haven't tweeted in days & I still can't access my accounts a WEEK later Image
That means:

1. I can't access account balances
2. I can't transfer money between accounts
3. I can't pay staff
4. I can't make international money transfers

And I have ZERO word from you on when this will be fixed. Not good enough.

cc @BankombNZ
@KiwibankNZ persistently claim to customers that service is "intermittent". This is demonstrably false. Service is down 24/7. Their own website (per screenshot at the top of this thread) proves it's because KiwiBank IT staff have configured CloudFlare to block international TLD's

NEW! August Public Delivery Meeting

Full thread below detailing all the news, updates, progress & more of our incredible next generation social media development project!

Follow along with me and please share to help spread the news that it's out :) Video link at end of thread
Thanks to the generous support of our community, Panquake now employs 9 full time staff! We've regained all the ground we lost from PayPal censoring us & withholding our funds, & we've raised another $4,551 on top of that, picking up 127 new donors & 113 new @pan_quake followers
We've had another HUGE month of development progress, designing the 8 microservices which will compartmentalise (& make easily extensible for scaleability) the delivery of various types of Panquake data to our users. This is best practice & discussed in much greater detail in vid

We didn't hire a PR team or ad agency. PQ started w/ just volunteers then slowly hired devs, designers & other staff over time as our crowdfunding grew

We're ppl-powered & not corporate-powered which makes us responsive. So ask me anything, I'll respond!

The short answer to what Panquake does, is it's a short messaging system.

Gives you a few more characters than Twitter, but doesn't allow paid advertising, moderation is visible to the whole network, content is published on blockchain so you can prove it hasn't been messed with
We also designed 4 new pieces of functionality that don't exist on any other platform. These new technologies dramatically increase social reach

On Panquake your messages will go far further than on existing social media, be seen by more people. There's more user interaction too
