.@Majdal - The idea of the waqf, which is basically a land trust that is governed for the collective benefit of the community for charitable reasons. #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@Majdal - As we present the maps and we produce, we open the data publicly, this presents a dilemma, which is what about adversarial use? #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@Majdal - Three necessary conditions for maps to reach where they are include open source tools, entering public domain, and online publishing. #techofpower

[Emran Feroz @Emran_Feroz]

Hello people, come and join us now!

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@Emran_Feroz - The Western world just counts its own victims and decides who is worthy to count and who is not. #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@Emran_Feroz - So, we have George Floyd being killed by the police in the United States, but we also have innocent Afghan villagers who have been killed through night raids by the American military. #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@Emran_Feroz - When it comes to victims of the War on Terror in Afghanistan, at the moment, we are talking about at least 43,000 people. #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@Emran_Feroz - When it comes to war, a thing like a memorial, remembering victims is something very crucial.

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@tsnvaa - Predictive policing, which was rolled out in the mid-2000s, wasn’t even really developed for the United States, which has a high threshold for things like accountability and transparency. #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@tsnvaa - The racially hostile relationships that American police had with vulnerablized communities, were weaponized to function as an isomorphic innovative domain for US imperial contexts. #techofpower

[techofpower @techofpower]

.@tsnvaa - Social media flagging systems that were designed for gang policing in urban contexts were studied by DARPA to monitor ISIS recruitment. #techofpower
