@ParkTweets Why is not possible to buy something from you online without agreeing to receive marketing emails?

@ZoeJardiniere @jdportes @GoodwinMJ Was it him who was sad people didn’t invite him to the pub?

@smithsam I seemed to recall back in the day they’d then ask for an academic email address? But that probably explains it.

So it turns out if @AmazonUK wrongly decides you’re a student and signs you up to a six month prime student trial there is no way of cancelling it and it is literally impossible these days to reach a human being in customer service. It used to be hard. Now you just can’t.

When I was young on a forum someone incredulously said "If evolution is true there has to be some kinda massive external source just pumping energy into the earth - I think we'd notice that!" and honestly I've just been chasing that high for the rest of my time on the internet.😎

Keir Starmer to create team to tackle ‘national security’ threat of people-smugglers

Labour have learned nothing from racist violence. They blocked hotel fire exits and set them alight. And without pausing for breath PM says this. https://t.co/RdQpa2odqn

@dn_campbell Always with the fishing.

A baby drowned in the Channel last night. I hope at this point the UK govt will acknowledge that increased security + policing on the French coast is not leading to fewer crossings, but more deadly ones, as people take higher risks (fuller boats, longer routes) to evade police

Uggghhhhh. The Home Office was using a racist algorithm about 5 years ago and it was stopped through pre-action. But it was only a matter of time before rights violating algorithms were going to start being used across the board. Digital Hostile Environment.

[Zoe Gardner @ZoeJardiniere]

AMAZING work by @privacyint!!

Their tenacity has REVEALED another algorithm used on the quiet on Home Office immigration cases.

This is big - we all know AI can reproduce biases & discrimination.
Transparency is absolutely key to protecting us from unaccountable software.

The community has endured 7 years of hell. They have been let down over and over again by all of civil society. They need our support and solidarity now, more than ever.

[Minnie Rahman @minnierahman]

Our @Praxis_Projects statement on the Grenfell Inquiry report and in solidarity with the Grenfell community. It has not passed us by that a huge number of bereaved, survivors and residents are from migrant communities. We stand together, calling for real change and justice.

One interesting thing about Berlin is how comfortably people with fascist ideologies move through it. Last week, on my way to coffee with a friend in the middle of town, I saw three guys dressed like this on our street. They weren't making a fuss - they were right at home.

@ZoeJardiniere @hansmollman This implies you could make a pre workout jelly.
