Impact requested explanations for three incidents that occurred in Paris this weekend. The collective wrote that a street medic had been violently beaten by several police officers and that there had been no news about his health status. According to Impact, another video showed him being attended to by firefighters and apparently regaining consciousness. Impact also indicated that it had exchanged messages with Rafael, a 17-year-old who had recently been released from the hospital after being beaten by several police officers. The collective reported that doctors had diagnosed him with a cranial trauma, two 3 cm hematomas at the back of his skull, and multiple bruises, requiring ten additional days of care, and that the teenager remained deeply traumatized. It added that the video of the assault had been viewed millions of times and had sparked outrage even internationally. Regarding a man who died in Châtelet from Sunday night to Monday, Impact stated that the circumstances of his death remained unknown and that no link to police intervention had been established. The collective reported that Le Parisien had published a testimony from a woman mentioning numerous police charges in the area, without excluding a possible link to the death. Impact also recalled that Sébastien Lecornu had praised the absence of deaths during the violence of October 17, while the man had died the following night. Impact called on its readers to share the information and to call on Laurent Nuñez, Sébastien Lecornu, the police prefect of Paris, and the Paris public prosecutor's office to get answers regarding the three cases. The collective finally invited the public to send them testimonies, photos, and videos. #JusticePourTous #ViolencePolicière #Paris (translated)

Press Briefs described a rally organized on October 17 as massive, but marked by violence. The report stated that the Ministry of the Interior counted 550,000 demonstrators, compared to up to 800,000 according to the organizers, and that intelligence services had underestimated the size of the gathering by five to eight times. It compared the official figure to the 282,710 participants recorded during the record of the Yellow Vests on November 17, 2018. The report mentioned looting and damage in Paris, Lyon, and Marseille, as well as clashes near the Élysée. It also reported that a 17-year-old girl lost an eye in Mulhouse, where an investigation by the IGPN was opened, and that a 17-year-old boy had his hand severed in Saint-Étienne. In Paris, according to Press Briefs, a video showed a person on the ground being beaten by more than twenty police officers, while a protester died on Boulevard Magenta; the prefecture mentioned a cardiac arrest. Press Briefs criticized the media coverage of the rally and relayed several political statements. The report noted that Marion Maréchal Le Pen refused to distinguish between the vandals and peaceful demonstrators, that Éric Ciotti called the unrest an "intifada," and that François-Xavier Bellamy called for the imprisonment of Philippe Poutou. It also highlighted comments from Prisca Thévenot about Jean-Luc Mélenchon and his remarks about Sébastien Lecornu, who called on the French to choose their side between the law enforcement and the Republic. The report further indicated that the mayor of Marseille, Benoît Payan, denied the figure of 30,000 looters, and that an AI-generated image, presented as showing an elderly couple being robbed in Paris, had garnered nearly six million views on X. Finally, it reported that Laurent Nuñez had submitted his resignation to Emmanuel Macron, who had refused it. #France #Mobilisation #Violences (translated)

RADIO ARC 101:“NEWSSTANDS, ‘ENDANGERED SPECIES’ LIKE CAFÉS: MONEY LOST AND HOPES FROM STANFORD” by NANDO SILVESTRI SOURCE: https://radioarc.it/edicole-razze-in-estinzione-come-i-bar-soldi-persi-e-speranze-da-stanford/ Newsstands are another repository of humanity and knowledge, in many respects similar to cafés, at least as far as the unfortunate fate that has befallen many of them is concerned. The smell of printed paper, coloured card, variegated covers, surprise packets and cellophane was an olfactory molasses that once intoxicated young and old alike and represented, at the same time, a sought-after destination for daily walks and pauses. Stopping by the newsstand meant drawing upon knowledge, entertainment, culture, imagination and creativity. All prerogatives lost on account of the shapeless and amorphous surrogates disseminated by the web. This is the principal reason for the cumulative and recurring closure of a great many Italian newsstands: in economics, one speaks of a sector in demand collapse. But it is not merely a newsstand that closes; a piece of the local and national economy closes with it. From 35,000 newsstands in 2005 to about 20,000 in 2024: -43%. With them goes direct turnover of over €400 million per year, but the real hole is the indirect economy that is never calculated. Each average newsstand in a small town generated distribution worth €15,000 per year in margins for local distributors, couriers, and printers. Moreover, the customer who bought the newspaper would have a coffee, buy a bus ticket, place a bet. Download the Medium App One must consider that without a newsstand, the village cinema loses its only physical promotional outlet, not to mention the losses in terms of advertising. When it closes, it is not only the newsagent who loses. The café loses, the driver loses, the printer loses. In Irpinia, over the last five years, Avellino has lost six newsstands, Ariano Irpino three, Sant’Angelo dei Lombardi two. The total loss in Irpinia amounts to about 22% of outlets. All this means that many of the closures mentioned above have deprived Irpinian cafés of several dozen customers, harming workers, distributors and suppliers. These are jobs that do not make the news, but they exist. Another hard blow inflicted upon the local and national economy in the name of a false progress that almost always favours the business of fixers and the usual suspects. However, what is happening in Puglia, a few kilometres from Irpinia, opens up scenarios of renewal based precisely upon the reconversion of disused newsstands. These are prospects so unique and innovative as to have aroused interest worldwide, especially at Stanford University. This is news of enormous significance that few news programmes have disseminated, in the name of a perennial pre-emption by technologies contemptuous of common sense, tradition and art. In San Severo, 40 km from Upper Irpinia, a newsstand abandoned for six years in Via Matteo Tondi became, on 27 March 2026, the Teatro-Edicola Foyer’97: six chairs, four square metres, an idea by Francesco Gavino. The well-received 10- to 15-minute shows have piqued the curiosity of Stanford University. Its academic journal, the Stanford Social Innovation Review [SSIR], has chosen the Teatro Edicola in San Severo as an international case study with the reportage “The Six-Seat Revolution”. Why is Stanford watching us? Because it has realised that those four square metres can once again generate indirect economic activity. Indeed, 60 spectators in an afternoon can become 60 coffees at the neighbouring café. With a symbolic ticket price of €5, we are talking about a cultural micro-economy. Not to mention the indirect income from tourists and journalists who arrive and frequent B&Bs and restaurants. It is the model Irpinia needs: not to leave the void, but to reconvert it virtuously. Every closed newsstand can become an information point, a micro-cinema, a service hub. Otherwise we shall continue to count only the lowered shutters, without counting the money that no longer circulates.

I-E B. wrote that the PSD government's program omitted, compared to that proposed by USR, PNL, and UDMR, the reforms that, in his opinion, disturbed the system. Among the absent measures, he listed a 13% reduction in the number of parliamentarians, according to the 2021 census, limiting the number of secretaries of state from each ministry to a maximum of three, and banning the accumulation of pensions with salaries in the public sector, about which he said the bill had already passed the Senate. He also mentioned the reform of special pensions and changes in justice: the election of the CSM by all judges and prosecutors, limiting delegations that he considered to be made "with dedication," selecting the Judicial Inspection through a real competition, and measures to prevent the expiration of criminal cases. His list also included civil control over the secret services, banning undercover officers in the press, political parties, and cults, as well as the proposal that half of the state's savings be returned to people through lower labor taxes. I-E B. asked why the reforms that reduce privileges were absent from a program that spoke about an efficient and responsible state. He argued that maintaining an oversized parliament, special pensions, and a justice system in which cases expired would represent the management of the status quo, not reform. #Guvernare #Reforme #PSD (translated)

SaxX stated that a cyberattack targeting Danfoss regulatory systems affected around 500 supermarkets in France during the night of October 11 to 12, including Intermarché, Netto, Coopérative U, Market, Monoprix, and Leclerc stores. According to him, the attackers forced the defrosting of equipment, with instructions reaching up to 50 °C. Two stores in Alsace alone reportedly recorded losses of 270,000 euros. Relying on information from a cyber official of a major brand, SaxX indicated that the vulnerability concerned three types of equipment and had been known since July, without clients being informed. Only one of the three types had a patch, which needed to be installed manually by refrigerant technicians, store by store. He added that the connected refrigerators used 3G cards installed by technicians, outside of the network and control of the brand's IT teams. The equipment would have been shut down, and the stores would have switched to manual mode, with a return to operation expected within the day, while the application of the patch would take longer. According to SaxX's analysis, the targeted versions were earlier than version 4. He reminded that Danfoss had fixed an authentication bypass vulnerability in version R4.2 related to passwords generated from the date and time. If these elements were confirmed, he estimated, it would not be a “zero-day” vulnerability, but rather a delay in updating. He also noted that Shodan still listed more than 3,700 Danfoss interfaces accessible from the Internet in August. SaxX said that France seemed to be the only country affected for the moment. He mentioned possible explanations such as the size of the French Danfoss park, a common provider or access channel, or deliberate targeting, while clarifying that nothing was established. He finally reported that his contact feared that other organizations might be more affected, particularly those whose activities relied mainly on frozen products. SaxX also indicated that he intervened at midday on TF1’s newscast to talk about the attack and possible motivations of the state group or hackers. #cyberattaque #sécuritéinformatique #France (translated)
