Hidden in a trove of Colombian military docs leaked to @FbdnStories by #Guacamaya, we discovered a brochure for a powerful social media surveillance tool.
Its capacities include influence operations, mass geolocation of targets and even automated phishing campaigns. (2/8)

#Surveillance must be done in a population with high risk of that disease. Nevertheless, patients at the higher end of the spectrum (e.g., cirrhosis with Child-Pugh C) carry a restricted #prognosis even with radical therapies. @EleanorBarnesOx @CR_UK @NIHRresearch 1/7
Cirrhotic patients with advanced liver failure or Child-Pugh B with #decompensation are usually not screened for HCC because they could not tolerate effective therapies. This changes if they are listed for transplant, however. 2/7
HCC onset can trigger changes in priority on the list as well as lend someone ineligible for #transplant. It is important, therefore, to maintain surveillance of HCC for this population. 3/7

We found over 37,000 requests for support, connecting at least 233 law enforcement organizations in MN and beyond. Documents obtained via a series of public records requests from the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) provide rare insight into police intelligence gathering.
Many drug and other task forces as well as more routine law enforcement operations within the region receive intelligence from investigators within the Criminal Intelligence Division (CID) and Criminal Information Sharing and Analysis (CISA) units.

In some ways, this is unsurprising. Since the #GDPR's beginning, it's been crystal clear that the intention of the landmark privacy regulation was to extinguish commercial surveillance and ring down the curtain on #ConsentTheater. 3/
The original sin of tech boosters and critics is an undue focus on what a technology *does*, rather than who it does it *to* and who it does it *for*. When it comes to technology's effect on our daily lives, the social arrangements matter much more than the feature-sets. 1/

2⃣ On November 17 the trial of Dimitriadis’ lawsuit against #ReportersUnited, #EfSyn, @nasoskook, @boublis & @Chondrogiannos, by which he demands more than €500,000, was postponed due to an impediment of the attorneys of Reporters United & @EFSYNTAKTON.
3⃣ Lawyers of #ReportersUnited & #EfSyn asked for a nearer new court date to promptly bring Dimitriadis’ lawsuit to trial.
❌ However, the court date was settled for 25/1/2024.
❗So we filed a preference request for a close-range court date, as 14 months is a long time.

Mastodon's revenue is not dependent on advertisers like other social media companies like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Tiktok, etc. The ad-based revenue model isn't necessarily good in all cases as ads=tracking leads to the users -> product and advertisers -> customers

"There is no such thing as digitization without surveillance. The very act of turning what was not data into data is a form of surveillance."
"Privacy is important because it protects us from possible abuses of power. As long as human beings are human beings and organizations are organizations, abuses of power will be a constant temptation and threat. That is why it is supremely reckless to build a surveillance
