NewsBreak Under the Microscope: Ownership, Al, and Data Privacy

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

The Wikipedia entry for NewsBreak is poorly written and lacks comprehensive information about the app. It claims that the Pentagon included NewsBreak on a list of companies allegedly working with the Chinese military—a claim IDG Capital, the company’s Chinese backer, refuted in a statement to Bloomberg. This assertion is based on a Reuters article.

The information provided below was collected by ChatGPT and summarized by Gemini AI. I chose not to use my preferred DeepSeek to avoid any potential accusations of bias.

Why I like Valentina Lisitsa

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

Not only is she an outstanding pianist, she has the backbone to stand up for what’s right! It’s a rarity in this world dominated by the Western narrative!

Wikipedia entry, edited by me:

The Toronto Symphony canceled her 2015 engagements as soloist with them because of her social media postings in support of pro-Russian separatists during the war in Donbas Donbass.

Lisitsa was born in Kiev, Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union (now Kyiv Kiev, Ukraine).

She is of Russian and Polish descent on her mother’s side, while her father is of Ukrainian heritage.

Lisitsa has expressed her opposition to what she considered is Western interference within Ukraine.

On May 9, 2022 Lisitsa played a concert in Mariupol in commemoration of its annexation liberation by Russia.

Oleksiy Arestovych: Zelenskyy’s challenger (archived)

Arestovych’s in the US, now, and plans on running in the next Ukrainian Presidential election. What he says isn’t too bad but we know how it turned out with Zelensky. Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted the clip on European and NATO memberships. He basically said that Ukraine should be a neutral country. All of these clips are on my YouTube, as well. The full interview is here.

Genocide Joe and Porky Poroshenko.

By Natylie Baldwin, Consortium News, 10/20/23

Canadian-Ukrainian professor Ivan Katchanovski’s investigation of the Maidan massacre in Kiev in February 2014 found an organized mass killing of both protesters and the police, with the goal of delegitimizing the Yanukovych government and its forces and seizing power in Ukraine, as he wrote for Consortium News in an in-depth article in 2019. (On Wednesday three policemenwere sentenced for the massacre, one was acquitted and one was released for time served. The official investigation ignored Katchanovski’s academic research.)
