All but 3 Democrats just cost us a Flock ban. Democrats continue to be pro mass surveillance
Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is a powerful tool the government uses to surveil Americans without a warrant — and it has a troubling history of misuse. Check out my op-ed on why Congress must not reauthorize it without real reforms and protections. thehill.com/opinion/congre…
.@jahimes: - does anything in FISA forbid NSA, or any other component of the intelligence community, from purchasing U.S. person data? - if NSA and the IC were already refraining from purchasing U.S. person data, why did you vote against the Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act?
Okay @jahimes, here’s 2 minutes of you saying NSA doesn’t buy our data (it does).
Join us to protest Rep. Katherine Clark's silence on President Trump's AI-driven warrantless surveillance of Americans, at her office in Malden on Wednesday at 4pm! warrantless.org/clark-protest/
Privacy-lovers, it's time to mobilize! Congress will choose this month whether to reauthorize or reform warrantless surveillance of Americans under FISA 702. Stand with us, for a freer life for everyone. Join below, and call, protest or donate! restorethe4th.com/volunteer/
In Westport CT outside Rep. Jim Himes’ closed town hall event. Police just told privacy activists protesting Himes for pushing a clean FISA Section 702 authorization to vacate the premises because “this is private property.”
Rep. Himes, the Ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee, won't let a little thing like the current systematic arson of government data privacy protections, dent his enthusiasm for FISA surveillance. democrats-intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/… We respond.
Read the comments here, and if you're in Cambridge, email [email protected] to let them know your opinion. Councilor Al-Zubi's Public Safety Committee will hold a standalone hearing on ShotSpotter & review the whole Report before the end of May warrantless.org/wp-content/upl…
We filed comments to Cambridge City Council on the 2026 Annual Surveillance Report, that seeks to authorize 75 surveillance techs. We object to 8: ALPR, ShotSpotter, CCTV at Central Sq, BRIC, Magnet Forensics, Covert Cameras, police use of Sprout Social & remote meter readers
Restore the Fourth is fighting hard for your Fourth Amendment rights, in Congress, in the states, and everywhere they are under threat. We're not doing this for partisan advantage. We have fought every administration since 2013. Help us do more! restorethe4th.com/donate-now
If you want to speak freely with family, go where you want to, make friends with who you want to, or worship how you want to, without worrying about the government stopping you, searching you, seizing you or scanning your every word and move, please become a supporter today.
Yesterday, March 2nd, S.T.O.P. held a press conference and rally alongside civil rights groups and Council Members urge the New York City Council to ban facial recognition and other forms of biometric surveillance. #NYC #Surveillance #BanTheScan fox5ny.com/news/nyc-biome…
Victory for privacy today, as City Manager Yi-an Huang agreed to revoke #CambridgeMA's Flock Safety camera contract. @ACLU_Mass's Gideon Epstein and Digital Fourth co-chair @rebelcinder presented on Flock's flaws and next steps for surveillance oversight
Today, we launch a new initiative to help local elected officials in Massachusetts worrying about the issue of masked or plain-clothes "ICE agents" conducting raids in our communities. warrantless.org/2025/06/our-ne… DM us if you're interested in ordinance text for your city!
What happened in Worcester today: welcometohellworld.com/they-dont-need… And yes, they do need a warrant. And yes, just so we're clear, local police in Massachusetts, if faced with a conflict between what the community wants and what federal law enforcement wants, will side with the latter.
Congratulations to all the @digital4th folks who testified at last week's big privacy hearing on Beacon Hill - Tasha, Karen, Alex T., Alex M., and especially Julie, who has worked so hard to press for strong and broad privacy protections for MA residents! linkedin.com/posts/activity…
Turn out & Testify: Tonight, @CambMA City Council will be reviewing whether to continue deploying controversial surveillance tech, incl. ShotSpotter, ALPR, CCTV, covert pole cameras, GrayKey, and its partnership with BRIC. reddit.com/r/CambridgeMA/…
So: (a) @CambridgePD is asking City Council to approve drones over protests (b) @CambridgePD will share footage if "needed for a criminal investigation" (c) ...so what happens when Kash Patel's FBI calls, asking for drone footage of an "illegal" Gaza protest at Harvard or MIT?
Trump's morning rant on Truth Social includes this threat against allowing "illegal protests" on college campuses in the US. Trump signs off: "Thank you for your attention to this matter."
This reform matters a lot, because voters can't tell right now whether Reps are voting to advance or block important bills; only how they vote on (rare, often omnibus) floor votes. It would be a win for basic transparency and accountability.
Big news from the MA House: "New House rules would require all committee members’ votes be recorded and would eliminate the stipulation that committee votes only happen by request of someone at in-person committee meeting (such meetings almost never happen)." #mapoli
