Listen🎙️on Blog Stream Infopedia Radio On Air A Christian nonprofit overseen by theologian Christopher Yuan has filed a lawsuit against a California-based technology company, accusing it of religious discrimination. Yuan’s group, Holy Sexuality, filed a complaint against Asana, Inc. of San Francisco on Tuesday in the United States District Court of the Southern District of California. According to the lawsuit, Asana refused to give Holy Sexuality a 50% nonprofit discount for the company’s project management software due to the religious nature of the organization. The lawsuit cited an entry on Asana’s website which excludes from their discount “organizations that exist to solely propagate a belief in a specific faith or do not provide services to people outside of a specific faith.” Asana also bars from the nonprofit discount any hospitals, credit unions, educational institutions, and any groups “that advocate, support, or practice discrimination based on age, ethnicity, gender, natio...

Listen🎙️on Blog Stream Infopedia Radio On Air Hackers thought to be working for the North Korean regime have successfully converted at least $300m (£232m) of their record-breaking $1.5bn crypto heist to unrecoverable funds. The criminals, known as Lazarus Group, swiped the huge haul of digital tokens in a hack on crypto exchange ByBit two weeks ago. Since then, it's been a cat-and-mouse game to track and block the hackers from successfully converting the crypto into usable cash. Experts say the infamous hacking team is working nearly 24 hours a day - potentially funnelling the money into the regime's military development. "Every minute matters for the hackers who are trying to confuse the money trail and they are extremely sophisticated in what they're doing," says Dr Tom Robinson, co-founder of crypto investigators Elliptic. Out of all the criminal actors involved in crypto currency, North Korea is the best at laundering crypto, Dr Robinson says. "I imagine...

Tal-Or Cohen Montemayor, the executive director and founder of CyberWell, told CBN News the Oct. 7 terror attack in 2023 kicked off a slew of new assaults and attacks online, with her organization’s annual report painting a bleak picture. “Because of the October 7th attacks, which was really the first successful hijacking of our social media platform by the terrorist group, Hamas, we’ve seen a repeated cycle of these flooding social media platforms with … violent content, literally documenting physical harm of Jewish people into these high engagement algorithms,” she said. “And that was true on the October 7th attacks. We also saw that repeat itself in the Amsterdam program that happened only a few months ago.” Montemayor continued, “So we’ve seen this cycle of how there is really almost a fetish...

Listen🎙️on Blog Stream Infopedia Radio On Air Trump Shouts Out Elon Musk, DOGE Savings, and Reveals Shocking Levels of U.S. Spending Fraud In a dramatic address to Congress on March 4, President Donald Trump made headlines by revealing shocking figures related to fraud in U.S. government spending. Trump highlighted the role of the DOGE (Department of Government Oversight and Economic) agency in uncovering fraud, claiming that over $500 billion annually is lost due to mismanagement, inflation, and systemic inefficiencies. One of the most startling discoveries Trump shared during his speech was the inflated number of people reported to be over the age of 100. This “statistical inflation,” as he called it, was one of many examples cited by the DOGE agency in its recent report. Trump emphasized that such discrepancies in government data were just the tip of the iceberg and that much of the waste occurred due to bureaucratic inefficiencies and outdated record-keeping practices. In addition...

Listen🎙️on Blog Stream Infopedia Radio On Air Meta maintains an internal “do not rehire” list of former employees who are not welcome back at the company — even on the recommendation of a vice president, according to a report. A former Meta engineer who was among the 10,000 employees laid off during the company’s 2022 downsizing told Business Insider that they were shocked to learn that they were deemed “ineligible for rehire” even though hiring managers spoke to them after submitting some 20 applications. With over four years at the company and a consistent performance rating of “exceeded expectations,” the engineer had even been promoted to a senior technical position the previous year. Their contributions had been acknowledged as “crucial” by a senior manager, and multiple hiring managers had initially expressed interest in rehiring them, according to the Business Insider report. However, after submitting nearly 20 applications, a concerning pattern emerged. Hiring managers would i...
