Show Notes
Leqaa Kordia, a pro-Palestinian protester, faces deportation despite a judges release order, due to New York Citys surveillance system sharing her records with ICE. Mayor Mamdanis efforts to reform these practices have been slow, with the city still funding jail call recordings, running the gang database, and allowing police to misuse facial recognition. A new report by the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project outlines steps for the mayor to address these issues, including blocking ICE collaborations, scrapping the gang database, ending facial recognition abuses, and halting protest surveillance. Kordias recent health issues in detention highlight the urgent need for reform, as these tools now threaten everyone from protesters to scientists and abortion seekers.
