Amidst all the unthinkable violence of Monday’s inauguration, may it not get lost how Indian state has installed *10,000* “AI-powered CCTV surveillance” cameras in Ayodhya, with facial/license recognition sold as “foolproof” by Gurgaon startup Staqu ⬇️ (by @internetfreedom)

Many people have made this point, but it really is striking that the editorial line in Israel’s paper of record is identical to points that U.S. officials, institutions and companies are falling all over themselves to condemn as beyond the pale

Isn't this a shorthand for genocide when people who have nowhere to go are asked to leave? How can people in the open-air prison of Gaza Strip, who cannot leave by sea or by land, survive? Will genocide & war crime be washed with the euphemism of Israel's right to defend itself?

This investigation I did in 2021 is getting lots of new attention after recent claims of networks attempting to influence perceptions in India.
Stay alert for tactics and accounts like those seen here, especially where the info targets minority groups.
A coordinated network of fake accounts posed as Sikh personas to promote the Indian Govt, nationalism & label Sikh activists as terrorists.
They claimed they were #RealSikhs, but were far from it. News on our investigation: bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-in… Here is an explainer thread👇
I think this is the biggest lie yet. These are all old pictures. The last one is obviously doctored. They are saying he escaped so they can kill him in a fake encounter. I’m worried they still have him. Indian government’s same tricks.

"I find it consoling to imagine that we are here to learn to love, to serve a large good like justice. But what if it is equally necessary to learn suffering, or guilt, or futility?"
