📢 NEW REPORT: @georgetowncpt has spent the past two years investigating #ICE surveillance tactics and published their findings in a groundbreaking report American Dragnet: Data-Driven Deportation in the 21st Century https://americandragnet.org/

Today, EFF and other civil society organizations issued a damning report about the prosecution of open source software developer and security expert Ola Bini, whose trial may come to an end next week. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/05/eff-and-other-civil-society-organizations-issue-report-danger-digital-rights-what

Government face surveillance uses our faces—unique identifiers that can’t be left at home, or replaced like a stolen ID or compromised password—to facilitate covert mass surveillance of the places we frequent, and people we associate with. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/05/movement-ban-government-use-face-recognition

El juicio a Ola Bini podría llevar a más criminalización de los expertos en seguridad que actúan amparados por las normas internacionales de DDHH. Investigadores y activistas como Bini deben ser protegidos, no perseguidos. Lea nuestro informe conjunto:

Ola Bini’s trial could lead to further criminalization of security experts carrying out legitimate activities protected by international human rights standards. Read our joint report with @DDHH_Ec, @CorteNacional @RELE_CIDH, @DEFENSORIAEC:

Highly invasive data about millions of people is up for sale, putting vulnerable people at serious risk. Here's how one vendor, SafeGraph, has used misleading framing to obfuscate its role in this shadowy marketplace. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/05/safegraphs-disingenuous-claims-about-location-data-mask-dangerous-industry

Hoy, la EFF y otras organizaciones de la sociedad civil emitieron un informe condenando la persecución al desarrollador de software de código abierto Ola Bini, cuyo juicio puede llegar a su fin la próxima semana. @DDHH @CorteNacional_Ec @DEFENSORIAEC https://www.eff.org/es/deeplinks/2022/05/eff-and-other-civil-society-organizations-issue-report-danger-digital-rights-what

ICE’s human rights record is both horrific and well-documented. After coming under increasing criticism for its ties to the agency, @thomsonreuters is taking a good first step in conducting a company-wide human rights assessment of its products & services.
