"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the Middle East."
SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.
I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
Welcome to Bluesky @doctorow.pluralistic.net!
They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

I just got a reply to an email that started: “Apologies for the delay. My water broke early, and I was offline.”
One of the most American ways to start an email tbh
@eff.org’s Cooper Quintin is one of the people behind Rayhunter, an easy to install tool that can detect nearby IMSI-catchers. This tech, sometimes known as Stingrays, poses as a fake cellphone tower to track a phone’s location. Can we prevent it?

Minnesota would like a word.
Leaked list of companies that applied for DHS contracts. Many of these are no longer active and many are not surveillance related. But some are definitely worth looking into. Good time to do some research and find new targets for organizing campaigns.
One of my favourite sides of politics/media.
Data appears to be from a public facing submission system and "contract" is not implied. Entities may have signed up just because they wanted access to view solicitations. That doesn't mean they "did business with ICE."

The first visuals and an explorer for the ICE contract data by @micahflee.com:

Look up contractors in your area. Protest. Divest. Defund ICE contractors.

“Why hack the DHS? I can think of a couple Pretti Good reasons!“
Love. It.
I actually vibe coded it 🫣, took about an hour. I used GTP 5.3-Codex. I had it analyze the raw data first and build models (company, contract, contact, etc.) and come up with a plan to visualize it in a static site, and then iterated from there. This isn't using any frameworks, just raw javascript
Refreshed, I just fixed it

I just threw together a website visualizing this ICE contract data! You can browse through the companies and their contracts, and filter them by state micahflee.github.io/ice-contracts/
The download link goes to data.ddosecrets.org/ICE%20Contra... and front here there's the raw data. It's not easy to browse at the moment, but the data is public
DHS's Office of Industry Partnership was hacked by a group called "Department of Peace" and info about ICE contracts with over 6,000 companies is now published on @ddosecrets.org!

On days like today, I remember what WikiLeaks said ahead of targeting the DNC in the 2016 election and actively enabling Trump's political ascendancy.

It’s not just Medicaid funding they’re withholding to MN. It’s food assistance, child care assistance, social services, job training, safety testing, public health, disaster relief. SNAP. Free lunch for kids in school.
They hate us for loving our neighbors, and are collectively punishing us for it.
