AI, Genocide, and the Power of Surveillance

This Mass Internet Censorship Law Is BACK!

The Kids Online Safety Act is back in Congress, rebranded as child protection while quietly expanding the pressure on platforms to police “harmful” content. On paper, it targets mental health risks and dangerous material. In practice, it hands regulators and state attorneys general more leverage over what platforms allow to circulate online.That means exactly what you would expect: more algorithmic suppression and more political speech getting buried. Pro-Palestine content and dissenting narratives are always the first to get flagged when compliance becomes a priority. This is how censorship evolves in America.

Meta Turned Everyone Wearing Their Glasses Into a Spy

Exactly as predicted, Meta’s smart glasses are drifting toward something far more useful to corporations than sunglasses with a camera: a wearable surveillance network. Reports now show facial data collection features being enabled across devices, turning everyday users into walking data collectors whether they realize it or not. None of this should surprise anyone. Americans have been slowly surrounded by this infrastructure for years. Flock Safety cameras track license plates across cities. Ring doorbells build neighborhood surveillance grids. Alexa speakers sit quietly in living rooms listening for commands while collecting behavioral data. Meta’s glasses just take the next logical step and put the cameras directly on your face.
