For years, #ClearviewAI has collected billions of photos from #socialmedia websites including Facebook, LinkedIn & others & sold access to its #FacialRecognition tool to law enforcement. The collection & sale of user-generated photos by a private #surveillance company to #police w/o that person’s knowledge or consent sparked international outcry when it was first revealed by the NYT in 2020.

#Doge just took it over."

Yours is a very elegant reply! You haven't admitted to carrying a powerful weapon, and any observer would say you have clearly behaved cooperatively. This is the way. Be congenial while - in point of fact - admitting nothing at all.

“The City of Tempe and the Tempe #Police shut down the Tempe Free Market today. This event has been in Daley park for over two years without incident. This market provides free clothing, household necessities and more from local nonprofits and community members.
The City of Tempe and the Tempe police continue to harass community members who are trying to help each other. In a time of economic struggle. Arresting people for feeding the #homeless. Harassing community events that help people who are struggling. Do better Tempe! #tempe #arizona”

“Just hours after the summoning and interrogation of our peer, Lana Kamleh in #Jerusalem by Israeli #police another peer of ours, journalist Latifeh Abdelatif was taken and her detention extended by Israeli authorities until tomorrow (Monday, March 17).
In the #WestBank we’re witnessing unprecedented frequency of Israeli raids— this comes after the depopulation campaigns in the north where tens of thousands of #Palestinians are without shelter— their own homes bulldozed, burned, or bombed to the ground by trigger happy colonial soldiers.
What is happening now is an increase of Israeli attacks at all fronts, including armed settlers in civilian clothing, settlers conscripted to the army, and judicial assault.
This is not #war, it is a clear and explicit operation of eradicating Palestinian cities and towns, while pushing Palestinians out either dead or as an asylum seeker.”
Is this real? FBI training in USA is 20 weeks. 
Finnish police train 3,5 years. They gain a Bachelors Degree.
“This is the Trump administration desperate to meet the goals that it’s set to carry out its mass deportation agenda. But he’s having trouble reaching those numbers, because he doesn’t have the manpower and the infrastructure to actually rip away people who have years and years of life in our communities and are deeply entwined.” https://www.texasobserver.org/local-state-police-ice-287g-task-force/

Fusion centers act as back doors for I.C.E. in sanctuary cities. Fusion centers in sanctuary cities need to stop sharing a roof with I.C.E. agents, and stop sharing fucking surveillance data with them!
Fusion centers are inherently deeply problematic, but stopping illegal cooperation with I.C.E. in sanctuary cities is an obvious and urgent first step to minimizing harm!
"Vous avez sorti une carte de député LFI", bredouille le ministre Buffet (adjoint de Retailleau) après que l'élu Aly Diouara a raconté avoir été menacé par un policier avec un taser lors d'un contrôle. Le groupe Insoumis a quitté l’hémicycle après ces propos "méprisants". "On n'a même pas de carte de militants", rit jaune un cadre du parti. Le député, lui, explique avoir vécu une "question au gouvernement au faciès"
