β€˜A million calls an hour’: Israel relying on Microsoft cloud for expansive surveillance of Palestinians Revealed: The Israeli military undertook an ambitious project to store a giant trove of Palestinians’ phone calls on Microsoft’s servers in Europe

Israel is using Microsoft Azure to store recordings of every phone call made by Palestinians in the occupied territories, then using AI to analyze the contents and select targets. Microsoft is (dubiously) claiming ignorance.

Most orgs do if they have the capacity, but the blanket don’t talk to press idea comes from the fact that the media (especially in the Uk) always find a way to prejudice progressives and present right wing views uncritically. It’s more β€œdon’t talk unless you’re very well trained”

Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.

Tumblr acct stimmyabby says:

Sometimes people use "respect" to mean "treating someone like a person," and sometimes they use "respect" to mean "treating someone like an authority."

And sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say "if you won't respect me I won't respect you" and mean "if you won't treat me like an authority, I won't treat you like a person"
And they think they're being fair, but they aren't. And that's not okay.

Response from user do-as-your-told:

This is so well put I am stunned
