Shot Spotter's CEO donated money to @MayorofSeattle Bruce Harrell's campaign, and now he's returning the favor by buying their unproven snake oil with $1 million in taxpayer dollars that should be used to fund actual public safety needs.

Seattle Privacy was founded with inspiration from Wikileaks. (We stole their motto.) One of our founders comments on the current US effort to lock away Julian Assange. https://t.co/sRV4fs0bjj

I am part of the group who turned up public records revealing this and can vouch for the accuracy of all of it. See this thread for an *outrageous* example of @SeattlePD's malfeasance and @SeattleOPA's near-complete ineffectiveness:

Public interest technology is so hard because governance problems that civil liberties experts deal with all the time, like surveillance & automated decision-making, aren’t well understood by everyone.

Thankfully, @critplat & @ACLU_WA have a new toolkit! https://t.co/OvMx5mt5Tj

Newly-obtained documents show that a Silicon Valley data-mining company helped ICE plan the largest “gang raid” in New York City history—a 2016 operation in the Bronx. “They attacked us, our whole community.” https://t.co/Kik6wAPcc0

Hey @TwitterSupport, how can we help restore important #privacy account @EmeraldOnion?

[willscott @willscott]

After 2 weeks of the account being limited, and with no response to the support ticket filed, the ISP I help with, @Emeraldonion, has now had its twitter account suspended with no communication from @twittersupport as to why.

@TwitterSupport How can we help restore the @EmeraldOnion account? #privacy

[willscott @willscott]

@EmeraldOnion @TwitterSupport This is a legally registered US 501c3 nonprofit, which has used twitter as a primary form of communication, and has not published any objectionable content that I am aware of. The experience makes it clear how much at the mercy of siloed platforms we are.
