Across the US, people fed up with Flock cameras surveilling their communities, and with local governments that are often unwilling to listen to concerns over privacy violations and ICE data sharing practices, are taking matters into their own hands—and tearing them down.

Across the US, people are dismantling and destroying Flock surveillance cameras
Anger over ICE connections and privacy violations is fueling the sabotage. PLUS: 10,000 drivers call on Uber to repay stolen wages, a man is arrested at a public hearing about a data center and more.

The Roberts Court loves corporations. Corporations are their benefactor more so than Trump. Corporations were not happy with the tariffs. SCOTUS rules against Trump when it's Corporations v. Trump. End of. Don't let this fool you into thinking this court as any goddamn legitimacy. It does not.

A reminder that George Orwell hated fascists so much he actually traveled to Spain in the 1930s to join the front lines of the resistance to kill them himself, taking a bullet in the throat during his time in the Civil War, & writing a memoir about it called “Homage to Catalonia”
