Police departments are deploying robots to get social media engagement and improve their image, but don't take the bait. Knightscope robots are rolling surveillance tech. https://t.co/5KJR7XLkoS — PolitiTweet.org

When WhatsApp says that its data sharing practices and policies haven’t changed, it is correct—and that’s exactly the problem. https://t.co/vrwfrXBmes — PolitiTweet.org

How can we start to fix social media? @jilliancyork suggests: “Companies should immediately expand their consultations to be truly inclusive of a more diverse range of civil society.” https://t.co/2YUnETUVSb — PolitiTweet.org

Fake online events are a form of commentary that build resilience in the face of absurdity, criticize the powerful, and make people laugh—and like other parody and political satire, they are protected by the First Amendment. https://t.co/ui8SYZ3G7M — PolitiTweet.org

A 150-year-old scientific research method that can be done with pencil and paper shouldn’t be patentable…even if you add a “mobile computing device.” https://t.co/sGXE9oU9pj — PolitiTweet.org

We must fight “digital redlining," where wealthy broadband users are get cheaper and faster Internet access and low-income broadband users are left behind with more expensive, slow access by the same provider. https://t.co/sSFr23bjNR — PolitiTweet.org

Machine learning is a hotbed for racially biased decision making. Seemingly cute robots capable of calling police on supposedly "suspicious" people are no exception. https://t.co/5KJR7XLkoS — PolitiTweet.org

Legislators and judges must ban so-called "consent searches" of our phones during traffic stops, sidewalk detentions, home searches, station house arrests, and other coercive police encounters. https://t.co/pnR1YpgYLC — PolitiTweet.org

Predictive policing and biometric surveillance technologies disparately harm Black, immigrant, and other vulnerable communities. https://t.co/ODGMa2ZJZr — PolitiTweet.org

What’s clear from the reaction to this most recent privacy policy change is that WhatsApp shares much more information with Facebook than many users were aware, and has been doing it since 2016. https://t.co/vrwfrXBmes — PolitiTweet.org

It sounds unconstitutional because it is. The government should not be able to buy geolocation data gathered by the apps on your phone without a warrant. https://t.co/1KUtaJXCI6 — PolitiTweet.org

The biggest shifts in tech companies' policies haven't come "from government regulation or a CEO's change of heart, but rather from sustained pressure, both internal and external, as well as consultation with experts from civil society” says @jilliancyork. https://t.co/P6ldGzCwxi — PolitiTweet.org

So-called "consent searches" by police of our phones invade our digital privacy, disparately burden people of color, undermine judicial supervision of police searches, and rest on a pure legal fiction. https://t.co/pnR1YoZnn2 — PolitiTweet.org

"Since you've got nothing to hide, you don't mind unlocking your phone for me, do you?" Legislatures and courts must stop police from asking us this question. https://t.co/pnR1YpgYLC — PolitiTweet.org
