Hate Speech on Facebook Is Pushing Ethiopia Dangerously Close to a Genocide
▻https://www.vice.com/en/article/xg897a/hate-speech-on-facebook-is-pushing-ethiopia-dangerously-close-to-a-genocide

Ethnic violence set off by the assassination of a popular singer has been supercharged by hate speech and incitements shared widely on the platform. Throughout his life, Ethiopian singer Hachalu Hundessa sang about love, unity, and raising the marginalized voices of his Oromo ethnic group. He had always tried to keep his work and politics separate, saying, “Art should not be subject to political pressure.” But it became increasingly difficult for him to keep these two worlds apart, thanks (...)

Invasive test-taking software has become mandatory in many places, and some companies are retaliating against those who speak out. As a privacy-minded computer science student preparing to start his first year at Miami University, Erik Johnson was concerned this fall when he learned that two of his professors would require him to use the digital proctoring software Proctorio for their classes. The software turns students’ computers into powerful invigilators—webcams monitor eye and head (...)

A company called Civvl says evicting people is the “FASTEST GROWING MONEY MAKING GIG DUE TO COVID-19.” "SINCE COVID-19 MANY AMERICANS FELL BEHIND IN ALL ASPECTS," reads the website copy. The button below this statement is not for a GoFundMe, or a petition for calling for rent relief. Instead, it is the following call to action, from a company called Civvl : “Be hired as eviction crew.” During a time of great economic and general hardship, Civvl aims to be, essentially, Uber, but for (...)

Among the data, which was collected by a company called Perceptics, was a trove of traveler’s faces, license plates, (...)

Critics doubt that Emotiv’s earphone-style sensors can reliably track things like stress and attention—and some worry the technology will become yet another form of workplace surveillance. The MN8 electroencephalography device looks like any set of sleek wireless earphones. Its buds can rest unobtrusively in the ear’s concha for a whole workday and that, its makers at San Francisco-based Emotiv say, is the point. You and everyone around you forgets you’re wearing a device that is monitoring (...)

A leaked manual from Blackdot Solutions, a British company that offers social media monitoring services, included a step-by-step guide on how to create fake profiles on Facebook and LinkedIn. A company that markets an online investigations platform for government agencies, banks, and other businesses says publicly that it’s based on open source intelligence. But a leaked user manual obtained by Motherboard shows that, in reality, the company teaches customers how to create fake Facebook and (...)

European regulators are cracking down on Facebook’s ability to transfer data across the Atlantic. Now the tech giant is threatening to pull its services from more than 400 million European users. Facebook has threatened to pack up its toys and go home if European regulators don’t back down and let the social network get its own way. In a court filing in Dublin, Facebook said that a decision by Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) would force the company to pull up stakes and leave the (...)

Staggering Number of Hysterectomies Happening at ICE Facility, Whistleblower Says
▻https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/93578d/staggering-number-of-hysterectomies-happening-at-ice-facility-whistleblower-sa

A whistleblower complaint filed Monday by several legal advocacy groups accuses a detention center of performing a staggering number of hysterectomies on immigrant women, as well as failing to follow procedures meant to keep both detainees and employees safe from the coronavirus.

The complaint, filed on behalf of several detained immigrants and a nurse named Dawn Wooten, details several accounts of recent “jarring medical neglect” at the Irwin County Detention Center in Ocilla, Georgia, which is run by the private prison company LaSalle South Corrections and houses people incarcerated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). In interviews with Project South, a Georgia nonprofit, multiple women said that hysterectomies were stunningly frequent among immigrants detained at the facility.

“When I met all these women who had had surgeries, I thought this was like an experimental concentration camp,” said one woman, who said she’d met five women who’d had hysterectomies after being detained between October and December 2019. The woman said that immigrants at Irwin are often sent to see one particular gynecologist outside of the facility. “It was like they’re experimenting with their bodies.”

Avec l’ancienne plume de Macron qui a démissionné après un burn-out

« Ce n’était pas quelque chose qu’ils faisaient consciemment. Je l’ai remarqué dans leur façon de parler entre eux. Quand ils parlaient de la classe moyenne et en ricanaient, c’est comme s’ils parlaient de ma mère. » La désillusion autour de Macron, les heures interminables de travail, le peu de reconnaissante et ce fossé qui se creuse entre elle et ses collègues ont raison d’elle. Tous les soirs, ou plutôt matins, en rentrant du travail, son front s’écrase contre la vitre de son taxi tandis que les larmes coulent silencieusement. « Je me sentais très décalée dans ce milieu très homogène où tout le monde se ressemblait beaucoup et partageait les mêmes codes. » Elle s’accroche mais est déjà ailleurs, déjà sûre de partir un jour. Elle pense même l’avoir su dès le début. Ceux qui travaillent à ses côtés et au plus proche du candidat sont majoritairement à l’image de Macron : « Des hommes, blancs, diplômés et surtout élitistes. »

Voici un texte publié par The Socialist Equality Party (Parti socialiste pour l’égalité). On pourra lire aussi celui du Globalist. Une comparaison récurrente est celle de l’incendie du Reichstag en 1933, marquant le début de l’ascension du parti nazi.

Le Bronx de la #Gare_de_Lyon

Les années 1980 de l’#îlot_Chalon, quartier de toxicos et de prolétaires du 12e arrondissement.

« Lower East Side » parisien pour Libération, « cancer urbain de la drogue » pour Paris Match. Comme le rappelle #Alexandre_Marchant, doctorant en histoire et diplômé de l’École normale supérieure de Cachan, l’îlot Chalon a toujours eu mauvaise presse. Composé de plusieurs passages très étroits situés derrière la Gare de Lyon, ce quartier datant du XIXe siècle sera l’un des symboles de la « #réhabilitation » du centre de Paris – réhabilitation non dénuée de calculs moins avouables.
