ACTION NEEDED: an ordinance is being proposed at City Council THIS WEDNESDAY (9/2) to regulate use of predictive policing + facial recognition. Help us show City Council we support an outright ban on these technologies in Pittsburgh (call/email template: https://t.co/PwtQ8iD0l2)

[Michael Granovetter, MD PhD @mgranovetter]

Predictive policing and facial recognition tech are racist. The algorithms act as academic facades and justification for racist policing. If you are in Pittsburgh, @capp_pgh has made call scripts/letter templates asking the city to BAN these practices https://t.co/5rZTWzOohA

[CAPP PGH @capp_pgh]

Help us in our effort to ban predictive policing, facial recognition, implement community oversight for surveillance tech, & demand CMU confront their role in these harmful tech projects.
