A 'tidal wave' of forever chemicals are being pumped out to satisfy the AI industry, according to The Guardian.

Nearly all of the 10 biggest manufacturers of Pfas are planning to increase production for use in semi-conductors and data center cooling systems.

These toxic chemicals never break down in nature and are linked to cancer.

ICE plans to spend up to $20 million on thousands of gloves that can deliver painful electric shocks. The devices will create yet another opportunity for abuse and no oversight and accountability. https://t.co/rQQvDZAiXy

Daniel Sanchez Estrada moved a box full of radical literature. A right-wing judge sentenced him to 30 years in prison. https://t.co/oVlu2msWlB

Prisciliano Trejo, who had leukemia, was reportedly denied medical care by ICE for 8 days while in a detention center run by CoreCivic.

He died just days later — and ICE is already shirking accountability. After denying him care, they released him to his family, where he died shortly after. They likely did this to avoid having another official death in custody and to keep their own horrific statistics from looking worse.

ICE and CoreCivic cannot get away with this. We must eliminate every for-profit detention facility and dismantle ICE entirely.

The AI boom is sending the costs of the electronics we use every day through the roof.

Chipmakers are diverting limited resources from gaming consoles and laptops to meet the endless memory chip demands of hyperscale data centers—chasing AI industry profits at consumers’ expense.

After OpenAI committed to buying 40% of all the chips in the world for their Stargate data center project, the cost of these RAM memory chips went soaring, leading to price increases on electronics across the board.

Terrifying thread.

Due to a legal ruling which lets AI companies off the hook for copyright infringement as long as they destroy the original book, they're buying up millions of rare books, scanning them as AI training data, and then destroying them.
