"...Mahmood is effectively telling the British public that they are prisoners and that the government quite literally plans to become Big Brother using AI. Yet there is barely a word about it in the media (with the notable exceptions of The Telegraph and The National). This, of course, is also a feature, not a bug."

It doesn’t matter if you’re Republican or Dem… if after seeing the carnage in Minnesota you vote to give ICE more money… you’ve betrayed your constituents.

If that child is then sent to another state? That’s trafficking.

Language matters here.

What happened to Liam Ramos should outrage us all.

A free press can’t exist in a surveillance state.

Geofence warrants allow the government to collect location data on everyone, including journalists and whistleblowers.

A Supreme Court case could make it worse. Here’s how.
