Wie ICE bereits weiß, wer die Demonstranten in Minneapolis sind: Agenten nutzen Gesichtserkennung, Social-Media-Überwachung und andere technische Hilfsmittel nicht nur, um Einwanderer ohne Papiere zu identifizieren, sondern auch, um Demonstranten zu verfolgen, sagten aktuelle und ehemalige Beamte.

The right to protest is constitutionally protected.
Sounds illegal and very anti-constitutional. All the goons working for the trump administration doing that should stop immediately and turn themselves in.
The current problem with social media and data collection is that these platforms cannot refuse to provide this information if the government requests it.
First they admitted it, then denied it. Or maybe it was denied it first, then admitted it. Some combination of admitting and denying. It’s like a Monty Python sketch with a few murders tossed in.
same way they tracked the journalists to remove them in that other country
I’m sure we have it named something cute like project daisy
Fuck all of this
This is a really, really important article for people to read in its entirety. As much as what we see ICE do out in the open, what they are doing on the backend and the databases/tech they are building may be even more terrifying.
Ah yes. The Great Freedum Surveillance State, and soon to be Great Freedum Firewall. Is everyone ready for the Internet blackouts and site bans?
You can’t get the masks off these assholes with guns yet you couldn’t put a mask on their faces during the pandemic. How does that make sense?
I hope they know that some of us are purposely throwing up flares out here.
And don’t give a shit if we are being monitored.
Shut it all down. Everyone who is able and who doesn’t deign to live under the boot of technocratic fascists should be participating in a national strike
Tech perfected in Gaza of course.
This is how they knew who Pretti was when they encountered him again. He was in their tracking system. His murder was premeditated.
Ah, good, the „small government“ conservatives have built a police-state database.
I’m sure it has firearm info, by the way.
Thanks Conservatives/libertarians.
I’m sure it won’t be used against you…
Cover your face and use Signal, people.
Wear a mask and leave your phones at home
Clearly deploying their resources to deal with violent illegal criminals
This reminds me protests in Belarus in 2020 where police used face recognition on photos and vids to search and detain people. Few years later there was a book printed that told about protests with some photos inside. Those photos were also used to find people and detain them, many of them spending years in prison. You guys will have „funny“ times pretty soon unfortunately. For those who think it’s illegal, please remember that constitution is just a peace of paper if you have no strength to enforce people to follow that rules, this is not some magic manuscript that just works.
Where are the constitutional extremists? Why aren’t Matt Walsh, Tim Pool, Been Shapiro, Stephen Crowder up in arms over ICE specifically targeting constitutionally protected protesting?
I hope the grand jury laughs in the AG’s face.
So, everyone has to mask up now? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The only tip I can pass on is that cat 3 welding glasses are impenetrable to any kind of wavelength used in facial recognition..
Okay, so how do we use facial recognition to figure out who they are? Beat them at their own game somehow?
Good. We are Sparta.
I hope these people being victimized by these agents sue the ever-living shit out of this administration.
Bad guys silencing whistle-blowers. Business as usual.
It would be worthwhile looking into anti Ai, photo, video patterns: [like this ](https://urban-privacy.com/products/anti-paparazzi-bandana). I haven’t used this product but there sunglasses, hats, shirts, etc if you look around. Reflective gear really annoys cameras. The patterns confuse ai-that’s my recommendation.
Good. I’m also a proud supporter of the second amendment.
This is directly a result of the freedoms and privacy we gave up in 2001 in the name of fighting terror btw.
Why don’t the protesters just wear masks??? Especially since it’s like 0° outside.
