An activist has started using artificial intelligence to identify Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents beneath their masks — a use of the technology sparking new political concerns over AI-powered surveillance.
So now they’re worried about surveillance? Spy on the entire population and it’s fine, but hold a cop accountable and all of a sudden surveillance is a “political concern”.
So, this leads me to believe that our politicians are getting blackmailed all over the place, not to mention bribed. I do wish he would make his own security cameras like nest or ring, I would buy that shit in a heartbeat.
I’m starting to think this is a worldwide issue and we are slowly reaching the climax of global society. Governments and US politicians caving to Trump, the slow adoption of authoritarian laws, the increase of mass surveillance around the world, governments denying genocide when they see it, politicians ignoring the public, and so many more issues. I feel like every world leader has blackmail on every other world leader and we are just waiting to see who gets exposed first. And when that does happen, I expect a domino effect of things akin to the Epstein files being exposed as every world leader gets their dirty secrets leaked one after the other.
I think the blackmail theory may be overly charitable. Maybe we’re just surrounded by billionaires and politicians who really believe in authoritarian fascism.
Yep. This is it. There is definitely blackmail occurring at some scale, and mass surveillance is definitely being used to conduct a lot of political corruption and espionage, but the overarching theme is that the winners of capitalism are no different to the kings and queens of history, and are using their capital to seize the means of democracy, returning the majority to dictatorships of feudalist servitude, and they haven’t even been quiet about their psychopathy or megalomania.
I don’t think blackmail is needed. These are ambitious people who won’t let anything get in the way of thier success. To them, ignoring genocide is just a way to curry favor. (That can’t be the right curry, can it?)
Pretty excited to try out an adversarial license plate cover though. At least, until they make them illegal only for members of the police benevolents association.
The entirety of conservatism is “there must be in groups for laws to protect but not bind, and out groups for laws to bind but not protect”. That’s pretty much it. Everything else follows from that. Facts don’t matter. Consistency doesn’t matter. They are shitty people. Cartoon villains

Thanks. I hate it.

well said
Yeah of course. Same reason we can only have nuclear power to run AI data centers and not for residential power.
