With all the doom and gloom headlines about AI apocalypse, I wrote for the NYT about something hopeful: the successful and growing rebellion against Flock cameras. People do care about their privacy, it turns out. You just have to show them a viable path to reclaim it. (Gift link)

The campaign against Flock shows that fighting to protect personal privacy isn’t a lost cause.

The brilliant Martin Leahy singing the current Irish iTunes Number 1 at the opening of new HIVE arts centre in Bandon Why is this track not being played on every Irish radio station? Are they boycotting the boycott song? #dontplay #stopthegame #speirghorm
Ed Sheeran should just go into hiding at this point. This video’s already at 600k likes in 7 hours on TikTok 😂
#WorldAtoZ P EMEL x Naci en Palestina (born in Palestine) 🇹🇳 artist EMEL is one of the great voices of courage, justice, empathy & heartbreak This LIVE version is 8yrs old. You don’t need to understand a word to feel “I share your pain” m.youtube.com/watch?v=NQFN...
Whether you personally like the tunes is secondary in importance to Palestinian liberation
#WorldAtoZ N One of the great things about Allison Russell’s Rainbow Coalition is that you get to discover artists like Sista Strings AND see them bloom thereafter New Orleans’ Joy Clark is 🎶joy. Now on AniDiFranco’s label, here’s her grandma tribute Lesson x AR LIVE m.youtube.com/watch?v=yaHC...
Which is the reason those lawmakers refused to pass those laws. They WANT to be able to prosecute reporting they don't like. Cool bipartisan consensus!
Matthew Keys@matthewkeys.net · 4d agoFor years, Democratic and Republican lawmakers had opportunities to pass strong federal shield laws. They didn't. And, now, we have a government that is exploiting their inaction to target reporters whose only apparent crime is committing acts of journalism.
As is the customary practice. Also, the purpose of a system is what it does.
In These Times@inthesetimes.com · 5d agoTwenty-five years after 9/11, the tools built for the War on Terror are being used against Cop City opponents, pro-Palestine organizers and anti-ICE activists. Tina Al-khersan and Azadeh Shahshahani trace the history.
“Why aren’t more artists speaking out about Gaza?” This is why. The rich and powerful will torch your whole career if you utter any criticism of the state of Israel.
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · 5d agoRapper Macklemore has been dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour after he made a “Free Palestine” speech on stage earlier this month
I really want people to think more like organizers. I'm seeing endless debate, and more than a little conspiracy theorizing, about the motivations behind the big companies' warnings about the danger of AI. And almost no discussion about how we seize this moment to demand the policies we want.
If folks on here want to pretend that the only thing Talarico said was about sports, that's fine—it's also not true. He would ban gender affirming care for 17 year olds. And I'm sure many of you haven't tried to figure out how to keep a trans kid from killing themselves, so you don't get it
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Talarico says he would vote in favor of a national ban for transgender surgeries for minors
Do not. Blame. Trans people. For being upset. When the Democrats. Throw them under the bus. For political gain. You do not get to judge trans people for being angry about this. You do not. Shut your mouth.
Never forget the millions of innocent men, women, and children the US slaughtered in a scorched Earth genocide over 2 decades. Democrats and Republicans hand in hand executing the only mission any US politician cares about: expanding the white supremacist Empire Fuck the red white and blue Always
I've spent my entire career reporting on the War on Terror. Many this week have asked me for my extended thoughts on the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Here they are.
Today We Must Finally Remember What The 9/11 Commemorations Ignore
Righteous victimhood fueled the War on Terror. 25 years later, we also have to remember all of those slain under its banner

It’s really something to talk about a “shared bond among all Americans in the early weeks after the attack” when this happened 4 days later en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_...

Never forget. The day we destroyed a democratic Chile and installed a fascist regime to torture as many schoolteachers to death as possible. Never forget. …what? Something else happened? …A settler state fucked around and found out? That’s not news or memorable.
i remember the day my math teacher said "go turn on the TV" my whole class watched the towers fall we'd all just turned sixteen calculating all the things to come in the years ahead we spray painted "the war" on every stop sign but it didn't stop the war www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvLC...

He wasn't wrong then, and he's not wrong now. 25 years on after a momentous loss of life, and what did we do with it? Doubled down on most of this nation's worst impulses and ended up where we are now. youtu.be/ERpzLYXBxbk?...
