Neo-Nazis head to encrypted SimpleX Chat app, bail on Telegram

App swears there’s no way for law enforcement to track users’ identities.

Dozens of neo-Nazis are fleeing Telegram and moving to a relatively unknown secret chat app that has received funding from Twitter founder Jack Dorsey.

In a report from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue published on Friday morning, researchers found that in the wake of the arrest of Telegram founder Pavel Durov and charges against leaders of the so-called Terrorgram Collective, dozens of extremist groups have moved to the app SimpleX Chat in recent weeks over fears that Telegram’s privacy policies expose them to being arrested. The Terrorgram Collective is a neo-Nazi propaganda network that calls for acolytes to target government officials, attack power stations, and murder people of color.

Helene ravaged the NC plant that makes 60% of the country’s IV fluid supply

There is currently no timeline for when the plant will be able to reopen.

Hurricane Helene's catastrophic damage and flooding to the Southeastern states may affect the country's medical supply chain.

Helene unleashed unprecedented amounts of rain throughout the western part of the state, killing dozens and ravaging numerous communities, homes, and other structures, including the plant.
