So the Ceuta situation is orchestrated. Morocco and Algeria have a conflict, Spain improves relations with Algeria and Morocco spoke about sovereignty claims over Ceuta. Add to that that Morocco has good relations with the US and Israel, and Spain doesn’t None of the migrants will cross to Spain

I got a question for you: If Europeans cannot count on one another when a Member State is under pressure at the Union’s external border, what confidence should they have that solidarity will prevail when the threat is military rather than migratory?
China’s foreign reserve agency quietly amassed stakes in European infrastructure, utilities and property through shell companies. This joint investigation maps the hidden holdings, warning that opaque ownership keeps the public in the dark. @occrp.org VSquare.org

We are making it very easy to our adversaries and foes. Instead of solidarity and providing help between EU states, we defaulted immediately to finger pointing, throwing accusations and threats between us. Italy and Denmark immediately wanting to suspend Spains Schengen status, France mobilizing
The European response to the #Ceuta crisis will go down in history as an own goal that emboldened Europe’s adversaries. Instead of showing solidarity, Italy & co sought to punish it. Now, with the vast majority of arrivals already returned, the failure wasn’t border control but European solidarity.

By uncritically and without trying to understand the underlying facts,usually serious newspapers and news outlets are doing Anthropic’s and OpenAI’s bidding and doing marketing for them for free/
Eryk Salvaggio@eryk.bsky.social · 6d agoReally important to note that in no way shape or form did Anthropic’s models in this incident “escape containment,” and not just in the word-policing sort of way. The model stumbled through an open, misconfigured gap. From Anthropic’s incident report:

It just shouln't be possible for non state actors to have this power and ability to make decisions for the government. It is completely antithetical to democracy where the state's task is to execute the will of it's people; here a private person injects itself and circumventing the state's mandate.
