Officials at the University of Houston used Dataminr to surveil students, while University of Connecticut administrators voiced concerns over protests against a military contractor and major donor.
Sick. What kind of ‘peace plan’ is made with the agressor, while shutting out the victim and imagining that the latter should pay for the crimes of the former??
