Global News
What is global news?
Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

What I wrote in the cross post:
Some context not in the article
That "other violent crimes" appears to do some very heavy lifting. There are about 40 deaths a year in total in the criminal mileu. Unless I'm interpreting the data wrong

Yes, because liberals and conservatives sold everything. They sold it to friends, family, donors, who in turn sell it to gangs.
Not only that, children will also now be going to prison in Sweden.
Ah, yes. The head of the Swedish police said in an interview the other day that Signal have no other use than recruiting for assassinations. If you see someone using it, you should call the police.
More encryption panic, better get everyone's ID if they are online or have a phone. Because of course criminals won't use stolen IDs or phones, just like they always use IDs and register their guns.
Also note, dispute the chats and sites being encrypted the cops have managed to review enough of them to supposedly establish a trend RE women's behaviour asking to participate in violence. So clearly encryption isn't a real barrier to law enforcement. But better ban it anyway!
