Frank McCormick, a former teacher and constitutional conservative, posted on X early Thursday asking if people enjoy Christmas aesthetics like lights, music, and decorations. Over 50 Jewish respondents largely expressed delight in the holiday's vibe and mood-boosting elements amid winter, noting cultural participation such as eating Chinese food on Christmas or decorating neighbors' trees. Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks. While a minority opts out, the thread with over 4,000 views reflects American pluralism and shared seasonal goodwill transcending faith.

French police, through the Office Anti-Cybercriminalité, have identified Google Pixel smartphones running the privacy-focused GrapheneOS as a tool employed by organized crime networks to protect communications by wiping data upon detection of forensic analysis. This was evident in the dismantling of the Paris-area 'Omar' synthetic drug ring, where a suspect's device reset itself during examination, denying key evidence to prosecutors. Officials are adapting protocols, such as using Faraday pouches, while GrapheneOS developers assert the open-source OS serves legitimate privacy needs for activists and others, criticizing media portrayals linking it to crime.

Key Takeaway

Drug traffickers in France are using Google Pixel phones with GrapheneOS to automatically erase data when police intervene, thwarting investigations.
