In the leadup to & throughout WW2, US tech giant IBM chose to be the "information muscle" of the Nazi Party, running census & kill accounting for Hitler's Final Solution.
As this shitty loop comes round at scale, tech giants once again center themselves within the white supremacy project. Rather than combine their power to fight back, the CEOs & investors of these corps *choose* to side with the hateful & increasingly lethal regime.
Helping friends & fam off #bigtech is a moral imperative.
@solitha Good idea. Depending on how you can fix it, could use a technique like this, but opaque. https://julianoliver.com/projects/public-patch/
If you are in the US and have an Amazon Ring camera, disconnect it. The camera may be being used by ICE, by way of its participation in a Flock AI surveillance network.
Or sure, smash if it feels better.
Online activists are telling owners of Ring Doorbell cameras that it's time to get rid of their devices, which can be used by ICE.

Flock has built a nationwide surveillance network of AI-powered cameras and given many more federal agencies access. Senator Ron Wyden told Flock “abuses of your product are not only likely but inevitable” and Flock “is unable and uninterested in preventing them.”
