👨🏿‍🚀 John Oliver's comprehensive explanation of the rot in US policing

Understanding the reasons for US policing's out of control, violent
racism is hard, because there are so many factors at play. First,
there's policing's root in "slave patrols" - white supremacist
vigilantes who hunted Africans who'd escaped bondage.

https://theconversation.com/the-racist-roots-of-american-policing-from-slave-patrols-to-traffic-stops-112816

Then there's "qualified immunity," a judge-made legal doctrine that
means that it's virtually impossible to hold a cop legally responsible
for corrupt and violent misdeeds, up to and including murder.

https://pluralistic.net/2020/05/29/mind-control-skepticism/#qualified-immunity

Add to that police unions, all-powerful criminal syndicates who immunize
even the worst, most brutal cops from being fired or even disciplined,
almost without limits. Unsurprisingly, police unions are correlated with
murders committed by cops.

https://www.npr.org/2020/06/05/871298161/police-unions-and-police-violence

There's the fact that cops are basically the only public service left in
many cities, serving as social workers, mental health professionals, and
youth workers.

https://pluralistic.net/2020/06/02/broken-windows/#broken-windows

There's the militarization of police, a scheme cooked up by military
suppliers to goose sales of war-fighting weapons to the military, who
pass them on to local cops, turning cities into literal war-zones.

Don't forget "broken windows," a criminological fraud that led to bust
quotas for cops, who met them by repeatedly and continuously harassing
brown and Black people and anyone else whose complaints don't get a hearing.

https://pluralistic.net/2020/06/02/broken-windows/#broken-windows

And on top of *that*: US structural racism, "warrior" training for cops,
and even police departments who literally ban anyone who's "too
intelligent" from signing up to be a cop:

https://pluralistic.net/2020/06/08/the-last-federated-platform/#derp-badge

So many toxic threads, snarled together in a terrible knot. However,
John Oliver is here with a 33-minute segment that unpicks many of these
threads, in admirable and clear fashion.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wf4cea5oObY

If you lack time/inclination for a 33-minute segment, then please spare
a few minutes for Kimberley Jones's superb, self-described "rant," which
closes out the segment.

👨🏿‍🚀 Cox violates the Geneva Conventions

I'm accustomed to ISPs finding new depths of shittiness to plumb, but
even I was taken aback to find one that is violating the fucking Geneva
Conventions.

Nice work, Cox!

Cox offers "unlimited" data for an extra fee. However, they're using
"unlimited" in special technical sense that means, very, very limited.

That's what "Mike" found out when Cox threatened to disconnect the
broadband he relies on during lockdown because of "excessive" use.

Mike in Gainesville runs overnight backups that eat up a lot of upstream
bandwidth, but confines those to run between 1AM and 8AM, when
neighborhood usage is lowest.

Still, he got a threatening voicemail telling him he would be disconnected.

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2020/06/cox-slows-internet-speeds-in-entire-neighborhoods-to-punish-any-heavy-users/

When he returned the call, they told him he had to use less in order to
conform with the "acceptable use policy," but neither the company nor
its policy would tell him how much less he had to use - just "use less."

Or else.

They followed this up with an email telling him that he'd been such a
naughty boy that they were *slowing down connections to his whole
neighborhood* to punish him for it.

Which brings me back to the Geneva Conventions, specifically Article 33
ofthe Fourth Convention (AKA GCIV): "No protected person may be punished
for any offense he or she has not personally committed. Collective
penalties... are prohibited."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_Geneva_Convention

AKA, punishing Mike's neighbors because he used too much bandwidth is
war criminal shit.

But the hits keep on coming!

Cox has seen several years of record profit - and new lows in network
investment (the profits were skimmed by execs and investors).

5.2m American households rely on Cox for broadband, and most of them
live in cities where Cox is the only cable broadband provider.

And finally, while Cox has not told Mike whether or not he's still in
danger of disconnection, they *have* warned him that they're about to
raise his monthly bill.

👨🏿‍🚀 Paramount's Unproduced Screenplays

The funniest gag in Raiders of the Lost Arc is right at the end, when
Indy fetches back the greatest treasure of history, only to have it
crated, stored and forgotten in a giant, anonymous, secret government
warehouse.

It's funny because it's so emblematic of the journey of screenwriters,
who slave for years - even decades - over scripts that go through
pre-production, even actual production, only to be shelved...forever.

If there's a novelist you loved who seems to be doing all right
financially despite not putting out any more books, chances are they're
writing unproduced screenplays, doing the best work of their career, in
the knowledge that virtually no one will ever read them.

Sidebar: the funniest joke in 1984 is this one: "One of them was a girl
whom he often passed in the corridors. He did not know her name, but he
knew that she worked in the Fiction Department. Presumably—since he had
sometimes seen her with oily hands and carrying a spanner she had some
mechanical job on one of the novel-writing machines."

Just a little writer humor folks. If you didn't laugh, you'd have to
cry, amr?

Studios buy a LOT of screenplays and produce very, very few of them. A
Twitter account called @ParamountUnprod has come into possession of a
hand-typed, hand-indexed catalog of 1,000 of Paramount's unproduced
screenplays from 1983-97, with summaries of each.

And @ParamountUnprod is tweeting out every single summary, one at a
time, for as long as it takes.

Some sound really, really awful.

https://twitter.com/ParamountUnprod/status/1269056177154949121

Some are fantastically weird:

https://twitter.com/ParamountUnprod/status/1268150536483876870

Some are grossly offensive:

https://twitter.com/ParamountUnprod/status/1268150835655172098

Some are promising-sounding work by brilliant writers:

https://twitter.com/ParamountUnprod/status/1269947635047305224

And some are very intriguing indeed:

https://twitter.com/ParamountUnprod/status/1268513019887321088

"These documents are an alternate reality of movies. Though many of the
titles read like absolute stinkers, many of the ideas under discussion
are serious gamechangers, and possibly even a few screenplays listed
here could have become masterpieces."

https://twitter.com/ParamountUnprod/status/1268513019887321088

"Ultimately this account is to make these otherwise lost concepts
available for everyone for posterity, which should start some
conversations with anyone with an interest in film history - and
hopefully some of the original filmmakers involved."

👨🏿‍🚀 Police budgets are out of control

As #DefundThePolice spreads, you may be wondering what, exactly that
means. It means a new kind of policing, with a dramatically shrunken
role, one that excludes social work, mental health interventions, drug
counselling, etc.

https://jacobinmag.com/2020/06/defund-police-protests-minneapolis-city-council

Police (rightly) complain that these are not jobs cops should be doing
in the first place, but what they don't talk about is the reason cops
are called upon to do that work: it's because they've absorbed the bulk
of city budgets, leaving the rest of the system starving.

As David Sirota writes, between 1977-2017, the US population grew by
50%; police budgets grew by 173% - triple the rate of population growth.

https://www.urban.org/policy-centers/cross-center-initiatives/state-and-local-finance-initiative/state-and-local-backgrounders/police-and-corrections-expenditures

In Chicago - a city whose population is declining - police budgets
comprise 37% of general fund spending, having grown 27% during Rahm
Emmanuel's 8-year reign; now Mayor Lightfoot wants to give them a 7%
boost on top of that.

NYC is even worse: police spending grew from $4.1b (!) in 2008 to $6B
today (!!), up 22% in the past 5 years alone.

The NYPD's budget consumes "more than the city spends on health,
homelessness, youth development and workforce development combined."

https://twitter.com/public_citizen/status/1269648445033320449?s=21

The phenomena of decreased social spending and increased police spending
are not unrelated.

The choice to immiserate and starve people, to deprive them of homes and
health care and education, demands an increased spend on guard-labor to
keep them from building guillotines.

"Defund the Police" isn't just a slogan, it's a compact manifesto about
our social priorities: do we want to  spend our money to provide humane
conditions and meaningful opportunities for every person, or spend the
same money locking up the people we marginalize?

Because cops *are* right that we shouldn't be asking them to do social
work. What they miss is that we mostly need them because we defunded all
the social workers and gave the money to the police force.

👨🏿‍🚀 Auditing Omniballot, a terrible e-voting system

Omniballot is an "internet voting and ballot delivery system" from a
company called Democracy Live.  A group of MIT and U Mich engineers did
a security audit on the system. The results are really ugly.

https://internetpolicy.mit.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/OmniBallot.pdf

Before we get into the technicalities, let's talk about what we need
from our voting technology. Here's a recent interview with the eminent
security researcher, Purdue's Eugene Spafford, where he assays a very
compact answer.

https://www.darkreading.com/risk/qanda-eugene-spafford-on-the-risks-of-internet-voting/d/d-id/1338011

"One of the goals of an election should be that whoever loses in an
election can look at what happened and acknowledge it was a fair loss."

That is, if your voting machine doesn't work, your democracy loses
legitimacy. Bad voting tech is an existential threat to democracy.

Which brings us back to Omniballot, some very bad voting tech indeed.
Here's a good summary of the researchers' findings about its shortcomings:

https://freedom-to-tinker.com/2020/06/08/democracy-live-internet-voting-unsurprisingly-insecure-and-surprisingly-insecure/

Start with the headline finding: "votes returned online can be altered,
potentially without detection, by a wide range of parties."

"Insiders at Democracy Live, Google, Amazon or Cloudflare, or any
hackers who manage to hack into these companies, can steal votes."

"The Omniballot system send[s] the voter’s identity and ballot
selections to Democracy Live (and Amazon)."

Even if you use Omniballot to generate a ballot that your print, hand
mark and mail, it can't be trusted because attackers could alter the ballot.

"In all modes of operation, Democracy Live receives a wealth of
sensitive personally identifiable information: voters’ names, addresses,
dates of birth, physical locations, party affiliations, and partial
social security numbers.

"When ballots are marked or returned online, the company also receives
voters’ ballot selections, and it collects a browser fingerprint during
online voting.

"This information would be highly valuable for political purposes or for
election interference, as it could be used to target ads or
disinformation campaigns based on the voter’s fine-grained preferences.

"Nevertheless, OmniBallot has no posted privacy policy, and it is
unclear whether there are any effective legal limitations on the
company’s use of the data."

Here's a summary of the researchers' recommendations for voters:

https://www.csail.mit.edu/news/how-protect-your-vote

Recco #1: "Your safest option is to avoid using OmniBallot."

Easier said than done: "This system has been deployed in Delaware, West
Virginia, and other jurisdictions."

👨🏿‍🚀 Who are Dark Basin?

For years, researchers have tracked a group of hackers-for-hire that
targeted US-based Net Neutrality and anti-Exxon campaigners. Now Citizen
Lab has identified the cybermercenaries behind these "Dark Basin"
attacks: Belltrox, a New Delhi company.

https://citizenlab.ca/2020/06/dark-basin-uncovering-a-massive-hack-for-hire-operation/

"Dark Basin’s targets were often on only one side of a contested legal
proceeding, advocacy issue, or business deal."

Their targets: "dozens of journalists in multiple countries," "net
neutrality advocacy groups," "organisations working on a campaign called
#ExxonKnew."

Also: "elected and senior government officials, hedge funds, multiple
industries."

Citizen Lab makes a good case that Belltrox is behind these attacks:
"director Sumit Gupta, was indicted in CA in 2015 for his role in a
similar hack-for-hire scheme."

"BellTroX and its employees appear to use euphemisms for promoting their
services online, including 'Ethical Hacking' and 'Certified Ethical
Hacker.' BellTroX’s slogan is: 'you desire, we do!'"

BellTroX staff activities listed on LinkedIn include:

* Email Penetration
* Exploitation
* Corporate Espionage
* Phone Pinger
* Conducting Cyber Intelligence Operation

Here's a partial list of environmental groups targeted by Belltrox:

* Rockefeller Family Fund
* Greenpeace
* Center for Intl Environmental Law
* Oil Change International
* Public Citizen
* Conservation Law Foundation
* Union of Concerned Scientists
* 350.org

Other US-based NGOs targeted by Belltrox, during the campaign to save
Net Neutrality:

* Fight for the Future
* Free Press

Belltrox targeted law firms working on corporate litigation in "US, UK,
Israel, France, Belgium, Norway, Switzerland, Iceland, Kenya, and Nigeria."

Citizen Lab also found evidence that Belltrox had been retained to
intervene in divorces and other personal disputes.

Hilariously, Belltrox didn't secure their own phishing servers, so
Citizen Lab was able to access the logs and see how they'd been used.

As the report highlights, Belltrox is just one high-profile, sloppy
actor in a large, shadowy industry of hacks-for-hire.

These cybermercenaries work for corporations and wealthy individuals as
personal dirty tricks squads, attacking government officials, activists,
and journalists who threaten to expose their wrongdoing and corruption.

Citizen Lab has alerted the DoJ to their findings.

This project builds on work previously done by EFF, and was undertaken
in conjunction with Nortonlifelock.

👨🏿‍🚀 NYPD's structural racism

It's one thing to talk about structural racism in policing. It's another
thing to quantify it. The NYC Civilian Complaint Review Board has
released its first-ever report on the NYPD's treatment of young people,
and it's ugly.

https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/ccrb/downloads/pdf/policy_pdf/issue_based/CCRB_YouthReport.pdf

As The City reports, "investigations substantiated complaints of
misconduct against youth at a higher rate than adults (29% compared to
23%) and exonerated cops at a lower rate (13% versus 23%)."

The investigations were hampered by NY State Law 50-a, a privacy law
that cops and city governments wilfully misinterpret as a ban on
releasing details of police misconduct.

https://www.thecity.nyc/2020/5/31/21276497/police-disciplinary-records-may-come-to-light-with-50a-repeal

Despite that, the CCRB report offers a blood-curdling look into the
cruelty meted out by NYPD officers against children and youths,
including a Black 11 year old boy who was "frisked by plainclothes
officers after high-fiving an adult in his public housing complex."

65% of complaints against NYPD were Black and Latinx boys; among adults,
42% of complaints come from Black and Latinx men. 64% of youth
complaints involve a Black person, while Black people make up 25% of NYC
10-19 year olds.

These complaints typically start with NYPD officers stopping children
for innocuous activities: "playing, high-fiving, running, carrying
backpacks and jaywalking."

Most of the complaints were initiated by parents; the CCRB notes that
the NYPD do not routinely notify parents when they have interactions
with their children - a commonsense measure whose omission cannot be an
oversight.

👨🏿‍🚀 IBM kills facial recognition program

One of the commonest objections to facial recognition for law
enforcement is that FR systems are more likely to make errors when asked
to recognize the faces of people of color, due to bias in the training data.

That's fine as far as it goes, but it has a pretty weird connotation:
that we'd be OK with facial surveillance for law enforcement if it
worked really well on brown and Black people.

Consider that a bunch of giant Chinese tech companies that provide state
surveillance services fixed their "Black faces" problem by
requisitioning the Zimbabwean drivers' license database and retraining
their systems.

https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/07/24/beijings-big-brother-tech-needs-african-faces/

Now, Chinese cops and spies are really good at recognizing Black
peoples' faces. Kind of a hollow victory, if you ask me.

In related news, IBM is killing its facial recognition program.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/08/ibm-gets-out-of-facial-recognition-business-calls-on-congress-to-advance-policies-tackling-racial-injustice.html

IBM is/was one of the Big Tech giants - along with Amazon, Microsoft and
others - developing facial recognition for its clients in the state
surveillance, policing and security apparatus.

This is a source of controversy all around, but IBM has a special
history when it comes to providing brutalizers with the technology
needed to supercharge their systems, having provided the early computers
needed to run the Nazi extermination camps.

https://ibmandtheholocaust.com/

This makes the company's decision to pursue these contracts especially
unforgivable, but that was under a previous administration. The company
has a new CEO, Arvind Krishna , who went beyond merely killing the
facial recognition program.

Krishna has called upon the US Congress to "enact reforms to advance
racial justice and combat systemic racism."

The facial recognition program never made much money for IBM, and it was
the source of a lot of internal strife within the company.

Unfortunately, Krishna's critique of facial recognition fell into the
"bias" trap of locating the problem with FR in its failings in
recognizing Black faces - rather than in its role in the systematic
oppression of racialized people in America.

"Vendors and users of Al systems have a shared responsibility to ensure
that Al is tested for bias, particularly when used in law enforcement,
and that such bias testing is audited and reported."

Yes, bias in machine learning is a problem, but the problem with
equipping cops with facial recognition isn't that FR struggles with
Black faces - it's that cops shouldn't be using FR, even (especially) if
it works well on Black people.

👨🏿‍🚀 Nutrition labels for IoT

A group of CMU researchers just presented "What Should Be on an IoT
Privacy and Security Label?" at the IEEE Symposium on Security &
Privacy. They present a model for "privacy labels" to clarify the
privacy implications of IoT gadgets.

https://www.computer.org/csdl/proceedings-article/sp/2020/349700a771/1j2LfTRYbNC

I confess that I was skeptical of this, but the labels themselves are
*really* good, clear and legible.

https://www.wired.com/story/iot-security-privacy-labels/

But...The more I think about this, the more my skepticism returns. We've
seen tools like Privacy Badger and Ghostery that tell you how your data
is being used by the websites you visit, but these haven't shown much
efficacy in changing sites' behaviors.

Historically, the best counter to these "antifeatures" in technology has
come from a) self-help measures and b) regulation.

We didn't kill pop-up ads by notifying users of which sites had pop-up
ads so they could choose to go elsewhere. We gave them pop-up blockers.

Today, the best way to deal with your alarm about Privacy Badger
warnings is to beef up your script-, tracker- and ad-blocking.

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/07/adblocking-how-about-nah

And there's a role for regulation here, too, which can take many forms.
We can simply prohibit certain conduct, like collecting, retaining or
selling data outside of a highly constrained set of circumstances.

Or we could establish a federal privacy law with a private right of
action, so users could sue companies that leaked their data and collect
statutory damages - a measure that would cause every  insurer to
instantaneously withdraw coverage for every surveillance tech company.

Don't get me wrong. I love these labels. But there is a huge danger in
documenting bad conduct without providing a means to counter it - the
danger that you train people to accept the bad conduct as inevitable.
