Feel like I need a bunch of Detroit dudes to run an online class teaching how to deal with Meta Ray Ban users; there's lots of expertise developed from decades of snatching buffs off cats faces in broad daylight
So now Mark’s creeper specs do what they are intended to do and the company can claim users are circumventing the “guardrails” and violating the TOS. Everyone gets what they want, except for the rest of us, who get screwed.

Here's the third episode of my podcast Collateral Damage.

It's about LeBron Gaither, a kid recruited to work as a drug informant. Gaither was tortured and murdered when police handlers blew his cover.

Features commentary from the excellent @sarahstillman.bsky.social and @anatapoff.bsky.social.
Ep. 3 Blown Cover: The Preventable Murder of LeBron Gaither | Collateral Damage from The Intercept

Love what's been said since Saturday about organizations. I keep telling y'all Black America is organized... and has been since at least the 19th century.

Black folks are into orgs! Church, mosque, synagogue & D9 is the tip of our iceberg! We have bowling clubs, clubs for our rides, clubs to eat...

Yes, and let's also remember #YourSlipIsShowing, the Black women activists who predicted all of this first and received no credit.
