Stories you might have missed this week. Following, sharing, donating, and subscribing to public interest journalism is literally an action you can take to fight for democracy.
Impressive curation. The AI glasses facial recognition story is genuinely unsettling when you think about the infrastructure gap between surveilance capability and regulatory frameworks. I ran into similar doxing tech demos at a conference last year, and the fact this can now run on consumer hardware without any meaningful consent layer is pretty wild. Gu ess we're basically beta-testing a future where anonymity in public spaces doesn't exist.
Thanks! My video and article about Aaron Parnas revealed that Americans who seemingly weren't interested in journalism before encountering Aaron actually have no idea that great journalism exists, is largely un-paywalled, and is easy to access. By showing people important stories that aren't necessarily all "breaking" maybe we can get people to have a little more enlightened understanding of how information becomes our outcomes.
