The UK's murder prediction AI will create a dangerous, criminalising loop.

This tech repackages flawed police data as neutral. Then replicates itself.

The existing over-policing of racialised, low income and migrant communities will be hardwired into police operations.

The video, published by the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), shows the vehicles moving in darkness with headlights and emergency flashing lights switched on - before coming under fire. The #PRCS said the video was obtained from the phone of a paramedic who was killed.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) initially denied the vehicles had their headlights or #emergency signals on.

#SUPERMARKET GIANTS TO CRACK DOWN ON #SHOPLIFTING WITH FACE-SCANNING TECH

The biggest retailers in the #UK, including #Co-op, #Tesco and #Sainsbury’s, have agreed to implement new face-scanning #technology, which looks to help the #police crack down on #shoplifting.

...

According to The Times, #Pegasus is set to receive £600,000 from ten supermarkets including #JohnLewis, Co-op, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, #Waitrose and Next.

The supermarkets pay for the surveillance so that the police can do its job? That sounds more like #cyberpunk than #1984.

Where are the socially useful application scenarios for #Bitcoins / #Crypto?

I can only think of 3 and they are rather undesirable:

1) To #pay at illegal marketplaces like #SilkRoad on the #Darknet.
2) On #terror financing.
3) To pay the #ransom for #encryption Trojans.

For everything else, the high transaction costs are not worth it at all.
