Please read our paper out now about the resistance, repurposing and reimagining of oppressive mental health technologies, such as Oxevision (now LIO), used on us against our will. And how we must dream them differently.
Our paper - ‘Towards a Mad Technoscience: revealing, repurposing, and reimagining carceral mental health technologies’ is out now (limited access here) bristoluniversitypressdigital.com/view/journal...

for the love of god, AI systems aren't "just tools that are neither good nor evil in and of themselves". AI systems *are* tools of capitalism. they exist as tools of capitalism. there is no AI system "in and of itself" outside of capitalism

My favourite thing about this post is a for-profit company likening their surveillance tech to the invention of stethoscopes or safety equipment in Formula 1 cars. "Over time, the radical becomes reasonable", they say. 1/2

If you know of or have contacts with UK mad folk and groups doing campaign work around EUPD, especially standards of care in mh services, could you please mention them or dm me? Not being on X means I'm out of the loop.

Legal representatives for @stopoxevision.bsky.social, bereaved families, patients and @inquest-org.bsky.social have supported calls for the Lampard Inquiry to issue interim recommendations requiring EPUT to stop their use of Oxevision. You've heard the evidence, now action is needed
We have updated our website to include information on the December hearings of the Lampard Inquiry, in which legal representatives of Core Participants were given the opportunity to address the Chair on any procedural issues

It's absolutely disgusting that Lio/ Oxehealth would be summoned to testify about deaths where young people (plural, not just one person) died alone with staff ignoring the technology alarm. The alarm system that our taxes fund. So these vulture capital vampires can extract profit.

Edwige died at a St Andrews hospital, she fell unconscious and the nurses chose not to resuscitate her. They thought she was 'faking it' in order to attack them, she'd never done that before. Edwige's family had to turn off her life support days later.

84% of St Andrews income is NHS money.

Brenda Campbell KC also raised concerns that LIO (Oxehealth) have published on their social media a post which references the Lampard Inquiry evidence as promotional marketing material

Related: the DIY mix tapes and CDs we would make for each other in the 90s and 00s introduced me to some of my favourite bands

I have a couple of small, decorative bowls up on my shop. It’s not just vases and lidded jars! I am hoping for a handful of sales before the end of the year, just to keep me going in supplies & space on my shelves ☺️ #pottery #ceramics #lgbtqmaker #independentartist

Disability is not a 'brave struggle' or 'courage in the face of adversity.' Disability is an art. It's an ingenious way to live.

Disability is a portal, a way of focusing our gaze and sharpening our lens on the intricacies of our humanity.

Rest in power, Alice Wong.

A fierce disability justice oracle, storyteller, and now ancestor.

She taught us that disabled wisdom lights the future, and that our stories must never be erased.

We mourn. We fight. We carry her work forward.
Thank you, Alice. For everything you gave us.
“With so many marginalized communities, we’re basically the oracles…we’re the ones who see shit before it happens.” In June 2020, I interviewed Alice Wong for TVU before she lost her ability to speak. I asked her how she’d first learned of SARS-CoV-2. She began with the 2016 election of Trump:

I think we absolutely should speak about feeling suicidal much nore openly than we do but don't have that vulnerable conversation with a machine Sam Altmam built to make money. You're worth so much more.

On Nov 3rd, myself, Joy Dove and other activist declared the DWP HQ building in London a crime scene. I also dressed up as the devil to ‘congratulate’ the workers coming in and out for their cruel and evil work. Just simply protesting that life is not a cost to cut.

My mental health team is being replaced by a ‘neighbourhood mental health team’. As far as I can see watered down, DIALOG+ rubbish. Save me

Got a letter that looked like NHS but is actually an “NHS partnered” company called Our Future Health which would appear to be harvesting medical data to train an AI model.

It’s offering to buy your medical data for a £10 voucher.

Real dystopian shit

It can't be underestimated how important this is.

Like 'SIM', this scandal has been uncovered by survivors themselves, not professionals.

Anyone concerned about patient safety, the merging of the private sector & the state, misuse of technology, research ethics & human rights needs to read this.
