    How? They've literally been asking for more crime cameras be installed to fight crime since a resident was murdered. "It's not in the budget." More on duty police? "Sorry, it's just not in the budget." Live facial recognition tracking system that doesn't exist anywhere else and can be used to collect data and create a giant AI database with data from every civilian it tracks. That data can then coincidentally be used to train AI models and enhance profits for companies like Palantir. "Yeah we should be able to swing that in the budget." Basically the exact same story is happening in the U.S. city where I live. We have a boil water advisory every other week, we have terrible roads, and awful schools but somehow the city has the budget to update our cameras so we will become the first city to test this out. After Palantir already secretly used our city to create and test their predictive policing model (which still fucking sucks btw). https://www.theverge.com/2018/2/27/17054740/palantir-predictive-policing-tool-new-orleans-nopd Oh also Palantir happens to be currently working with the U.S. government to create a giant database of every citizen. https://www.mercurynews.com/?p=12164379%2F

    They always dramatically inflate losses to justify how bad and mean pirates are. "Pirates stole 40 million billion trillion schmeckles"

    I wonder if a legitimate case could be made for a class action lawsuit to stop this? The class would literally include ever person alive and yet to be born/

    A private company is selling cheap tablets to inmates to let them communicate with their family. They have to use "digital stamps" to send messages, 35 cents a piece and come in packs of 5, 10 or 20. Each stamp covers up to 20,000 characters or one single image. They also sell songs, at $1.99 a piece, and some people have spent thousands over the years. That's also now just going away. Then you get to the part about the new company. Who already has a system in Tennessee where inmates have to pay 3-5 cents per minute of tablet usage. Be that watching a movie they've bought or just typing a message.
