San Francisco police commission accepts tech billionaire’s gift, to provide cops with drones, cameras and a massive new office
In evil authoritarian North Korea…
They’re using this to gather facial biometric data to deanonymize protestors. Everyone stay safe and cover your face, else they’ll use it against you!!
Trump is a puta.
biden would be nutting in his pants with joy at this headline if his brain hadn’t already turned into jello
Or if his prostate wasn’t a tumor
Damn, I hope no one has already started a non-profit for prostate cancer support called Post-Nut Charity.
Nice
“Nut. Joy. JellyJellyJellyJellyJellyJellooooo. Nut-nut-nut-nut. Corn Pop. Corn Pop? Nut Pop. Jelloooooooooooooooooooooooo…” And he falls asleep. It was taxing.
Gazafication continues apace

I thought this guy was a privacy advocate.

$9.4 million could be used for a lot of good things instead of giving the police more toys they’ll use for evil.
I hope this billionaire meets a karmic end. Head cut off by a drone or something.
$2m to lease an office for 16 months and $7m for drones and tech.
No doubt this will be added to the department’s budget and taxpayers will be forced to pick up future lease extensions, drone attrition, new drone models, training, and the continued costs of server hosting, software licenses, etc. in perpetuity.
Capitalists showing they have class conciseness
You can build a microwave gun that will make them drop out of the sky. There’s videos on YouTube lol. Or a less technical way would be just fly a drone into theirs or rig up a little net to drop on them. Main problem is spotting the damn things in the sky.
Another way to counter it is to go to the source. Find where they’re launching from, if they have a network of repeater antennas, the names and home addresses of the operators. A whole bunch of opportunities!!
I just had a look on youtube and I’m pretty underwhelmed by the DIY microwave guns. I can’t see them being in anyway useful against drones that are not going out of their way to be shot down for a video.
Evil country says “We’re going to be covering the entire city with drones:”
Pretty much inevitable. Why pay for helicopters and police chases when you can simply tail a suspect with a fleet of drones and then arrest them later?
Free drones.
Hopefully all police will be covered in (shahed) drones
Everything is fucked
