I’m not sure if this has already been mentioned on the Flock cameras, but this site seems to provide an updated map of where they are located:

The Electronic Frontier Foundation also has a project that does the same (it appears to be updated less, but with different data points): https://www.atlasofsurveillance.org/atlas
And also related, are companies using facial recognition cameras in stores that people shop in: https://www.banfacialrecognition.com/stores/ (check for accuracy)
Catherine;
Can we have a clip where you explain how the plunder is working in Gaza that we can post online that might help people connect the dots? A shortie?

Check out the story of who Trump arranged to be the overseeing attorney.
There is something about the water use story with data centers that has never made sense to me.
That is why can’t they recycle the cooling water?
I am a mechanical engineer. The water used to cool these data centers needs to initial be cleaned up so that it doesn’t foul the pipe but then all it needs to do is go to somewhere (like a reservior) to cool off and is perfectly able to be reused over and over again. Do you constant need a tap of new refrigerant flowing into your refrigerator or AC system? Of course not – these systems are closed and work for decades recycling the refrigerant. What bone head designed these systems to use so much water? But the another part of me wonders, because this is so completely boneheaded, that it is done this way purposefully. Or that this is a cover story to use the water in some other way. But where is the water going? Even if the water was just used for cooling the clean water would still be clean, and potable when it left the cooling system – thus it could be recycled back into a treatment plant or directly into a water system. Where is all this water going?
You know that is a very good question.
As a side note, one place I do believe this water may go- is into fracking. That needs lots and lots of water. So it is pumped through the data center but then handed free over to the oil companies to frack. It would then make some sense that UAE and Saudi are upping all there water requirements.
Just a note on the tarrifs. I currently run essentially a yogurt business. I use foil lids like most yogurts. All my packaging is made in the US but foils all have a tarrif surcharge of an extra 20% just for the tarrif on the raw aluminum.
Yes, it sneaks in everywhere. We built all these decisions around the economics. Now they are going to be reshuffled based on politics.
