LA police ask people they stop for their Facebook and Twitter account info - Drop Kick - 09-10-2021 Data is fed into Palantir and helps enable "large-scale monitoring." The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) instructs officers to collect social media account information and email addresses when they interview people they have detained, according to documents obtained by the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law. The Brennan Center filed public records requests with LAPD and police departments from other major cities, finding among other things that "the LAPD instructs its officers to broadly collect social media account information from those they encounter in person using field interview (FI) card." The LAPD initially resisted making documents available but supplied over 6,000 pages after the Brennan Center sued the department. One such document, a memo from then-LAPD Chief Charlie Beck in May 2015, said that "When completing a FI report, officers should ask for a person's social media and e-mail account information and include it in the 'Additional Info' box." That includes Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook profiles, the memo said. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2021/09/lapd-officers-collect-social-media-account-info-from-people-they-detain/ RE: LA police ask people they stop for their Facebook and Twitter account info - Guest - 09-11-2021 RE: LA police ask people they stop for their Facebook and Twitter account info - Guest - 09-11-2021 RE: LA police ask people they stop for their Facebook and Twitter account info - Guest - 09-12-2021 Palantir: With Joint All-Domain Command and Control, the Pentagon is finally catching up WASHINGTON — Software company Palantir boldly stated in paperwork filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission last year that it wants to be the “central operating system for all U.S. defense programs.” That’s an ambitious goal, to say the least. But with the Pentagon squarely focused on implementing its future war-fighting vision of Joint All-Domain Command and Control — which includes connecting sensors to any shooter with integrated data and artificial intelligence processing — Palantir feels perfectly positioned to do just that. In recent years, the company has won key contracts in the emerging JADC2 environment. In January, Palantir won one of two $8.5 million contracts for work on the Army’s Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node, or TITAN, the mobile ground station that is the linchpin of the service’s sensor-to-shooter pipeline. More recently, the company announced it had won a $111 million contract to provide enterprise data management and more to U.S. Special Operations Command. https://www.c4isrnet.com/industry/2021/08/12/palantir-with-joint-all-domain-command-and-control-the-pentagon-is-finally-catching-up/ And we thought Google Earth was cool!
