For this story, we obtained hundreds of files from Flock’s login pages. Those files contained code for screens and functionality that ordinarily sit behind a police login. @dell.bsky.social and I used the code to rebuild parts of the system. We adapted/embedded it so readers can see how it works.
NEW: Flock has said for years its cameras don’t identify or track people. We obtained the code for its police AI and rebuilt parts of it. The tool can find witnesses, surface associates, search people by race or physical description, and flag vehicles by how they move. W/ @dell.bsky.social

There’s fresh evidence that the White House hatched a scheme to punish an American state because it didn’t free a convicted felon the president likes. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” a federal judge said. “I’ve never even imagined something like it.” Why isn't this a bigger scandal?

I didn’t come anywhere near this when I was on the Roosevelt (‘87-‘90) - I think we hit like 85 straight days at sea. But even that was miserable. This is an abuse of the force and will have long term repercussions
There have reportedly been multiple attempts by sailors to jump overboard the USS Abraham Lincoln as poor conditions and mental stress reach a breaking point. The crew is in its ninth month at sea, and has spent 250 days consecutively without making land, a record

The U.S. Supreme Court erased all doubts about the sweeping nature of its recent voting rights jurisprudence Tuesday night with a shadow docket ruling that effectively reverses the Court’s own decision in the same matter just three years ago. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: The judge in the $1.7B slush fund suit has dismissed the case, but she says THERE IS NO SETTLEMENT OF RECORD. As I said earlier, the media must stop reporting that this slush fund is a settlement. It's just plain THEFT. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Casual reminder that Hobby Lobby is also responsible for getting private for-profit corporations exempted from the requirement to cover contraception under their employees' healthcare plans (Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.). That was back in 2014, they've been shitty for at least that long.

Wait, I thought if 60 Minutes edited an interview with a politician in the slightest, that was grounds for a lawsuit?

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?
