Can't post a link to paper w/o X messing it up.
Last post here, moving to bluer skies.
I testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee. I discussed the largest fraud in the history of the US immigration system perpetrated by DHS and the State Department. Even Republicans on the Committee were shocked by what this administration is doing to legal immigrants!
We use an auto-ethnographic "data-walk" to reveal all the ways that tech firms surveil everyday life, creating cities in ways that can then produce more data.
Tech firms shape cities to generate data for their digital products, creating a feedback loop: they invest in urban property & design spaces that capture and reinforce consumer preferences.

This is a massive media scandal.
@SkyNews posted a video accurately describing what happened in Amsterdam.
It described violence perpetrated by Israeli football hooligans, and their hideous racism.
They then deleted it. This is the original.
New Paper: I still rem how this was hatched in a Paris apt in 2022 when the world had just reopened. Since then many things hv changed but lessons frm the #QR border seem more pertinent than ever with the DIY #digitalisation of our own lives @digital_RGS

The oft-stated Jane Jacobs-ascribed misquote that 'new ideas need old buildings' is a useful example of why context matters: ie, in the context of the time, when older buildings were cheaper, it was a simple question of cost and risk.
The definitive spatial accounting of the genocide in/on Gaza.
Hugely important work from @ForensicArchi that should be enough to stop any more murder/destruction and will serve as underlying evidence for future prosecutions of war crimes inc urbacide...
