This is 404 Media's @jasonkoebler.bsky.social waving at himself through a Flock camera; one of 60 we learned was left exposed to the open internet. Not only could anyone with a link livestream it, but some admin portals were open with no login credentials required.

This is my most recent article for @journalspectre.bsky.social, and is one of the most in-depth pieces I've ever written on white nationalism. It looks at how the "post-alt-right" has tried to carve a distinctive identity for itself, particularly Richard Spencer.

As we finish up the year, 404 Media will have stuff publishing over the holidays. Some horrible (you'll see on Xmas day), some fun. Subscribers will still get a story each day.

In the meantime, here's some of our best coverage this year, starting with Flock + ICE: www.404media.co/ice-taps-int...
ICE Taps into Nationwide AI-Enabled Camera Network, Data Shows
Flock's automatic license plate reader (ALPR) cameras are in more than 5,000 communities around the U.S. Local police are doing lookups in the nationwide system for ICE.

Mobile IDs promise convenience, but before you download your state’s app, there’s a few questions worth asking yourself. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
Should I Use My State’s Digital Driver’s License?
A mobile driver’s license (often called an mDL) is a version of your ID that you keep on your phone instead of in your pocket. In theory, it would work wherever your regular ID works—TSA, liquor

The US TikTok sale has been signed. The company will be controlled by a joint venture including Oracle, Silver Lake, Andreessen Horowitz, Abu Dhabi-based MGX. Adding a UAE company really makes it clear that this was never about national security concerns.

Knowing where automated license plate readers are located is nice, but it doesn’t erase the “legitimate public safety risk” posed by the vast amounts of data this technology collects, EFF’s @tsnvaa.bsky.social told @LPM.org. www.lpm.org/investigate...

I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.
