Modelli di missione
«Non viviamo in un’epoca di cambiamento, viviamo un cambiamento d’epoca»: questa affermazione, più volte ribadita da papa Francesco, nell’ambiente missionario viene ripresa «per rafforzarne un’altra di uso frequente: il “cambiamento di paradigma” della missione di oggi. L’uso di queste due espressioni consacra, da una parte, l’idea di processo radicale di trasformazione e, dall’altra, quella di cambiamento di modello di missione, quasi ci fosse un solo, unico modello» (p. 9). L’A., missionario comboniano portoghese, «si propone di riflettere sui modelli di missione che si sono imposti nella Chiesa del postconcilio e di illuminare questa riflessione con il contributo degli ultimi pontificati, in particolare di quello francescano» (p. 11).
Il saggio si articola in 13 capitoli, di cui i primi tre chiarificano i termini utilizzati nel titolo: in quale senso si parla di «modelli» e cosa si intende per «riconfigurazione». La riflessione non «ha pretese teologiche o ecclesiologiche quanto al contenuto, né accademiche quanto alla forma. Cercherà di costruirsi come saggio esplorativo, dalla finalità divulgativa» (p. 15). In questa prospettiva, i modelli di missione vanno intesi «come concetti di riferimento spirituale, fonte di ispirazione e di motivazione che orientano l’impegno» (p. 16). L’intento è dialogico e propositivo, «offrendo soprattutto le ragioni per capire i diversi modelli e, eventualmente, preferire l’uno o l’altro» (p. 18), con una particolare attenzione all’insegnamento di papa Francesco: «La conversione (termine da lui usato) può essere vista come punto di partenza che porta alla riconfigurazione (termine del nostro sottotitolo) della vita della Chiesa in tutte le sue dimensioni» (p. 20).
Un capitolo è dedicato all’insegnamento di Francesco su temi che attraversano in modo trasversale i diversi modelli. La gioia del Vangelo, la Chiesa in uscita, i quattro princìpi enunciati nell’Evangelii gaudium (cfr nn. 222-237), che «possono essere applicati con profitto a ogni modello della missione e possono fungere da bussola» (p. 27); la santità come il volto più bello della Chiesa, che si può riprendere «anche in relazione ai missionari e ai modelli di missione.
L’A. esamina sei modelli possibili di missione, per ciascuno dei quali viene data una breve presentazione, richiamato il fondamento biblico, delineato un sommario percorso storico, illuminato l’apporto di papa Francesco, valutati i punti forti e i punti deboli.
Si susseguono i modelli di missione come annuncio, come incontro, come servizio, come fraternità, come liberazione, e infine, come ecologia integrale, che «appare come un modello in progress» (p. 156). Gli Istituti missionari sono nati nell’Ottocento e rispondevano alle esigenze di un contesto sociale ed ecclesiale molto diverso da quello attuale. La crisi del paradigma missionario ne interroga l’identità e stimola l’approfondimento del carisma fondazionale: «Il papa sembra suggerire un cambiamento di prospettiva: non siamo noi a possedere definitivamente un carisma, è il carisma che, in modo dinamico e come grazia divina, possiede noi nelle stagioni della nostra vita, nelle varie epoche e generazioni di un istituto o comunità» (p. 185). Da qui anche la riflessione sul rapporto tra il carisma e l’istituzione, che fa fatica a tenere il passo: «Troviamo più ispirazione, carisma e profetismo riguardo alla missione nelle parole e nei gesti di papa Francesco che non nelle strutture deputate all’accompagnamento e al sostegno della missione» (p. 201).
Secondo l’A., la riforma della Curia con la costituzione Praedicate Evangelium, se da una parte sembra proporre la riconfigurazione missionaria della Chiesa, istituendo al primo posto fra i dicasteri quello per l’evangelizzazione, presieduto direttamente dal Pontefice, dall’altra «non mancherà di suscitare qualche viva inquietudine tra i missionari» (p. 203). Questi già con la riforma della Curia di Giovanni Paolo II erano passati dalla giurisdizione canonica della Congregazione «De Propaganda Fide», sotto il cui patrocinio erano nati e ricevevano sostegno, a quella per gli Istituti di vita consacrata e le Società di vita apostolica, che di fatto ha sfaldato l’attenzione alla missione e ai missionari e spostato l’accento della loro identità: «I missionari sono passati così a essere visti come religiosi (anche) missionari, anziché missionari (anche religiosi)» (p. 199).
«Quella degli istituti missionari nati nell’Ottocento è una storia bella, che risveglia la speranza e ci fa sperare in cose nuove» (p. 210), in una Chiesa che non ha una missione, ma è missione. Come scrive il card. José Tolentino de Mendonça nella Prefazione: «La complessità della presente stagione non dovrebbe […] essere letta come un ostacolo, ma come una opportunità» (p. 6).

I carabinieri a difesa delle specie protette sequestrano cinque zanne di elefante africano
Nella giornata del 17 settembre 2025 i #Carabinieri del Nucleo #CITES – Distaccamento di Torino Caselle hanno eseguito controlli mirati presso alcuni laboratori di tassidermia in provincia di Torino, nell’ambito della campagna #EMPACT2022 e dell’Operational Action Plan (#OAP) #EnviCrime 2024- 2025 – OA 5.1 “Trafficking of Fauna” dell'Unione Europea #UE, finalizzata al contrasto del traffico illegale di specie protette.
Durante uno dei controlli sono state rinvenute e poste sotto sequestro cinque zanne grezze di elefante africano (#Loxodonta africana), specie inserita nell’Appendice I della Convenzione CITES e considerata in pericolo di estinzione. Le zanne sono risultate di dimensioni considerevoli (misuravano tra 190 e 212 centimetri di lunghezza), a conferma della provenienza da esemplari adulti e del rilevante valore commerciale del materiale sequestrato.
Gli specimen erano detenuti in assenza della documentazione prevista che ne attestasse la provenienza legale e il possesso lecito. Il titolare dell’attività, un italiano sulla quarantina, è stato pertanto denunciato alla competente Autorità Giudiziaria per detenzione illecita di parti di specie protette, in violazione della normativa nazionale e internazionale sul commercio di specie a rischio di estinzione (Regolamento (CE) n. 338/97 e Legge 150/1992).
L’operazione si inserisce nel quadro delle attività coordinate a livello europeo per il contrasto al crimine ambientale e rappresenta un’importante azione di tutela della biodiversità e di salvaguardia delle specie minacciate inserite nella #C.I.T.E.S.. La C.I.T.E.S. – Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora è una Convenzione internazionale che tutela le specie a rischio di estinzione. Per tutte le specie animali e vegetali incluse nella Convenzione – oltre 40.000 – è necessario dimostrare la legale provenienza mediante idonea documentazione, indispensabile per la loro detenzione e commercializzazione. Nel caso di zanne grezze di elefante, tale documentazione deve essere richiesta al Nucleo Carabinieri CITES territorialmente competente. È vietato prelevare esemplari in natura, detenerli, cederli o commercializzarli senza la prescritta documentazione. I Carabinieri dei Nuclei CITES su tutto il territorio nazionale sono preposti ai controlli sul commercio di specie protette e al contrasto del traffico illegale delle stesse su tutto il territorio nazionale. Il commercio di specie rare, come l’avorio di elefante, sia grezzo che lavorato, è purtroppo ancora oggi molto diffuso.

Tips for C Programming from Nic Barker
If you’re going to be a hacker, learning C is a rite of passage. If you don’t have much experience with C, or if your experience is out of date, you very well may benefit from hearing [Nic Barker] explain tips for C programming.
In his introduction he notes that C, invented in the 70s by Dennis Ritchie, is now more than 50 years old. This old language still appears in lists of the most popular languages, although admittedly not at the top!
He notes that the major versions of C, named for the year they were released, are: C89, C99, C11, and C23. His recommendation is C99 because it has some features he doesn’t want to live without, particularly scoped variables and initializing structs with named members using designated initializers. Also C89 is plagued with non-standard integer types, and this is fixed by stdint.h in C99. Other niceties of C99 include compound literals and // for single-line comments.
He recommends the use of clang arguments -std=c99 to enable C99, -Wall to enable all warnings, and -Werror to treat warnings as errors, then he explains the Unity Build where you simply include all of your module files from your main.c file.
It’s stressed that printf debugging is not the way to go in C and that you definitely want to be using a debugger. To elaborate on this point he explains what a segfault is and how they happen.
He goes on to explain memory corruption and how ASAN (short for Address Sanitisation) can help you find when it happens. Then he covers C’s support for arrays and strings, which is, admittedly, not very much! He shows you that it’s pretty easy to make your own array and string types though, potentially supporting slices as well.
Finally he explains how to use arenas for memory allocation and management for static, function, and task related memory.

Building a Diwheel to Add More Tank Controls to Your Commute
It’s often said that one should not reinvent the wheel, but that doesn’t mean that you cannot change how the use of said wheel should be interpreted. After initially taking the rather zany concept of a monowheel for a literal ride, [Sam Barker] decided to shift gears, did a ‘what if’ and slapped a second monowheel next to the first one to create his diwheel vehicle. Using much thicker steel for the wheels and overall much more robust construction than for his monowheel, the welding could commence.
It should be said here that the concept of a diwheel, or dicycle, isn’t entirely new, but the monowheel – distinct from a unicycle – is much older, with known builds at least as far back as the 19th century. Confusing, self-balancing platforms like Segways are also referred to as ‘dicycles’, while a diwheel seems to refer specifically to what [Sam] built here. That said, diwheels are naturally stable even without gyroscopic action, which is definitely a big advantage.
The inner frame for [Sam]’s diwheel is built out of steel too, making it both very robust and very heavy. High-tech features include suspension for that smooth ride, and SLS 3D-printed nylon rollers between the inner frame and the wheels. After some mucking about with a DIY ‘lathe’ to work around some measurement errors, a lot more welding and some questionable assembly practices, everything came together in the end.
This is just phase one, however, as [Sam] will not be installing pedals like it’s an old-school monowheel. Instead it’ll have electrical drive, which should make it a bit less terrifying than the Ford Ka-based diwheel we featured in 2018, but rather close to the electric diwheel called EDWARD which we featured back in 2011. We hope to see part two of this build soon, in which [Sam] will hopefully take this beast for its first ride.

JawnCon Returns This Weekend
For those local to the Philadelphia area, a “jawn” can be nearly anything or anyone — and at least for this weekend, it can even be a hacker con building up steam as it enters its third year. Kicking off this Friday at Arcadia University, JawnCon0x2 promises to be another can’t-miss event for anyone with a curious mind that lives within a reasonable distance of the Liberty Bell.
The slate of talks leans slightly towards the infosec crowd, but there’s really something for everyone on the schedule. Presentations such as Nothing is Safe: An Introduction to Hardware (In)Security and Making the GameTank – A New, Real 8-Bit Game Machine will certainly appeal to those of us who keep a hot soldering iron within arm’s reach, while Rolling Recon & Tire Prints: Perimeter Intrusion Detection and Remote Shenanigans via Rogue Tire Stem RF and Get More Radio Frequency Curious will certainly appeal to the radio enthusiasts.
Attendees can also take part in a number of unique challenges and competitions inspired by the shared professional experience of the JawnCon organizers. One of the events will have attendees putting together the fastest Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) broadband connection, as measured by era-appropriate commercial gear. Easy enough with a spool of copper wire, but the trick here is to push the legendary resilience of DSL to the limit by using unusual conductors. Think wet strings and cooked pasta. There’s also a Capture The Flag (CTF) competition that will pit teams against each other as they work their way through customer support tickets at a fictional Internet service provider.
We were on the ground for JawnCon in 2024, and even had the good fortune to be present for the inaugural event back in 2023. While it may not have the name recognition of larger East Coast hacker cons, JawnCon is backed by some of the sharpest and most passionate folks we’ve come across in this community, and we’re eager to see the event grow in 2025 and beyond.

Pirates win 18 seats in Czech parliament!
Congratulations to the Czech Pirates for their win in the October 3-4th parliamentary election. They went from four seats in the 2021 election when they were part of the Pirates and Mayors (STAN) alliance to eighteen seats in this election in alliance with the Greens. The Greens will get two of the eighteen seats.
The Czech Pirates are an inspiration to Pirates in the United States and around the world. They, like Pirates in Luxembourg are in their country’s legislatures and continue to fight for Pirate policies there.
Citizen Protest Halts Chat Control; Breyer Celebrates Major Victory for Digital Privacy
In a major breakthrough for the digital rights movement, the German government has refused to back the EU’s controversial Chat Control regulation today after facing massive public pressure. This blocks the required majority in the EU Council, derailing the plan to pass the surveillance law next week. Digital freedom fighter Dr. Patrick Breyer (Pirate Party) hails this as a huge victory but warns that the fight is far from over.
Former Member of the European Parliament Patrick Breyer comments on the victory:
“This is a tremendous victory for freedom and proves that protest works! Facing a wave of calls and emails from the public, the Social Democrats held their ground, and for the first time, even the conservative opposition leadership is voicing criticism. Without the tireless resistance from citizens, scientists, and organizations, EU governments would have passed a totalitarian mass surveillance law next week, spelling the end for digital privacy. That we stopped this—for now—is a moment to celebrate.”
“EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen must now admit the failure of her dystopian Chat Control plan. The Commission must withdraw this irreparable bill for good, as it has failed to find a majority in the Council for years. Instead, it should embrace the European Parliament’s alternative, which delivers effective child protection without mass surveillance: safer apps through ‘Security by Design,’ proactive clearing of illegal content online, and swift takedown obligations.”
Breyer concluded with an appeal:
“Today proves that our protest has the power to stop a totalitarian surveillance system that has no equal in the free world. But the threat is not gone. The proponents of Chat Control will use every trick in the book and will not give up easily. We will keep fighting until this proposal is defeated once and for all, and the privacy of our digital lives is secure for everyone.”
“Freedom is only as valuable as our willingness to fight for it. Now is the moment to support the civil rights organizations that made this victory possible, so we are prepared for the fight ahead.”

Sora 2 Watermark Removers Flood the Web
Sora 2, Open AI’s new AI video generator, puts a visual watermark on every video it generates. But the little cartoon-eyed cloud logo meant to help people distinguish between reality and AI-generated bullshit is easy to remove and there are half a dozen websites that will help anyone do it in a few minutes.A simple search for “sora watermark” on any social media site will return links to places where a user can upload a Sora 2 video and remove the watermark. 404 Media tested three of these websites, and they all seamlessly removed the watermark from the video in a matter of seconds.
playlist.megaphone.fm?p=TBIEA2…
Hany Farid, a UC Berkeley professor and an expert on digitally manipulated images, said he’s not shocked at how fast people were able to remove watermarks from Sora 2 videos. “It was predictable,” he said. “Sora isn’t the first AI model to add visible watermarks and this isn’t the first time that within hours of these models being released, someone released code or a service to remove these watermarks.”
youtube.com/embed/QvkJlMWUUxU?…
Hours after its release on September 30, Sora 2 emerged as a copyright violation machine full of Nazi SpongeBobs and criminal Pickachus. Open AI has tamped down on that kind of content after the initial thrill of seeing Rick and Morty shill for crypto sent people scrambling to download the app. Now that the novelty is wearing off we’re grappling with the unpleasant fact that Open AI’s new tool is very good at making realistic videos that are hard to distinguish from reality.To help us all from going mad, Open AI has offered watermarks. “At launch, all outputs carry a visible watermark,” Open AI said in a blog post. “All Sora videos also embed C2PA metadata—an industry-standard signature—and we maintain internal reverse-image and audio search tools that can trace videos back to Sora with high accuracy, building on successful systems from ChatGPT image generation and Sora 1.”
But experts say that those safeguards fall short. “A watermark (visual label) is not enough to prevent persistent nefarious users attempting to trick folks with AI generated content from Sora,” Rachel Tobac, CEO of SocialProof Security, told 404 Media.
Tobac also said she’s seen tools that dismantle AI-generated metadata by altering the content’s hue and brightness. “Unfortunately we are seeing these Watermark and Metadata Removal tools easily break that standard,” Tobac said of the C2PA metadata. “This standard will still work for less persistent AI slop generators, but will not stop dedicated bad actors from tricking people.”
As an example of how much trouble we’re in, Tobac pointed to an AI-generated video that went viral on TikTok over the weekend she called “stranger husband train.” In the video, a woman riding the subway cutely proposes marriage to a complete stranger sitting next to her. He accepts. One instance of the video has been liked almost 5 million times on TikTok. It didn’t have a watermark.
“We're already seeing relatively harmless AI Sora slop confusing even the savviest of Gen Z and Millennial users,” Tobac said. “With many typically-savvy commenters naming how ‘cooked’ we are because they believed it was real. This type of viral AI slop account will attempt to make as much money from the creator fund as possible before social media companies learn they need to invest in detecting and limiting AI slop, before their platform succumbs to the Slop Fest.”
But it’s not just the slop. It’s also the scams. “At its most innocuous, AI generated content without watermarking and metadata accelerates the enshittification of the internet and tricks people with inflammatory content,” Tobac said. “At its most malignant, AI generated content without watermarking and metadata could lead to every day people losing their savings in scams, becoming even more disenfranchised during election season, could tank a stock price within a few hours, could increase the tension between differing groups of people, and could inspire violence, terrorism, stampede or panic amongst everyday folks.”
Tobac showed 404 Media a few horrifying videos to illustrate her point. In one, a child pleads with their parents for bail money. In another, a woman tells the local news she’s going home after trying to vote because her polling place was shut down. In a third, Sam Altman tells a room that he can no longer keep Open AI afloat because the copyright cases have become too much to handle. All of the videos looked real. None of them have a watermark.
“All of these examples have one thing in common,” Tobac said. “They’re attempting to generate AI content for use off Sora 2’s platform on other social media to create mass or targeted confusion, harm, scams, dangerous action, or fear for everyday folk who don’t understand how believable AI can look now in 2025.”
Farid told 404 Media that Sora 2 wasn’t uniquely dangerous. It’s just one among many. “It is part of a continuum of AI models being able to create images and video that are passing through the uncanny valley,” he said. “Having said that, both Veo 3 and Sora 2 are big steps in our ability to create highly visual compelling videos. And, it seems likely that the same types of abuses we’ve seen in the past will be supercharged by these new powerful tools.”
According to Farid, Open AI is decent at employing strategies like watermarks, content credentials, and semantic guardrails to manage malicious use. But it doesn’t matter. “It is just a matter of time before someone else releases a model without these safeguards,” he said.
Both Tobac and Farid said that the ease at which people can remove watermarks from AI-generated content wasn’t a reason to stop using watermarks. “Using a watermark is the bare minimum for an organization attempting to minimize the harm that their AI video and audio tools create,” Tobac said, but she thinks the companies need to go further. “We will need to see a broad partnership between AI and Social Media companies to build in detection for scams/harmful content and AI labeling not only on the AI generation side, but also on the upload side for social media platforms. Social Media companies will also need to build large teams to manage the likely influx of AI generated social media video and audio content to detect and limit the reach for scammy and harmful content.”
Tech companies have, historically, been bad at that kind of moderation at scale.
“I’d like to know what OpenAI is doing to respond to how people are finding ways around their safeguards,” Farid said. “We are seeing, for example, Sora not allowing videos that reference Hitler in the prompt, but then users are finding workarounds by simply describing what Hitler looks like (e.g., black hair, black military outfit and a Charlie Chaplin mustache.) Will they adapt and strengthen their guardrails? Will they ban users from their platforms? If they are not aggressive here, then this is going to end badly for us all.”
Open AI did not respond to 404 Media’s request for comment.
Court records show that the narrative Flock and a Texas Sheriff's Office has told the public isn't the whole story, and that police were conducting a 'death investigation' into the abortion.

Police Said They Surveilled Woman Who Had an Abortion for Her 'Safety.' Court Records Show They Considered Charging Her With a Crime
In May, 404 Media reported that the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office in Texas searched a nationwide network of Flock cameras, a powerful AI-enabled license plate surveillance tool, to look for a woman who self-administered an abortion. At the time, the sheriff told us that the search had nothing to do with criminality and that they were concerned solely about the woman’s safety, specifically the idea that she could be bleeding to death from the abortion. Flock itself said “she was never under criminal investigation by Johnson County. She was being searched for as a missing person, not as a suspect of a crime.”But newly unearthed court documents about the incident show that when the search was performed, police were conducting a “death investigation” into the death of the fetus, and police discussed whether they could charge the woman with a crime with the District Attorney’s office on the same day that they performed the Flock search. The documents, obtained by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and shared with 404 Media, also show that the Flock search was performed more than two weeks after the woman had the abortion. The documents were created as part of an arrest affidavit against the woman’s partner, who was arrested for allegedly abusing and threatening her at gunpoint on the day she took the abortion pill.
In documents created prior to the publication of our article, there is zero mention of concern about the woman’s safety. The records show that the police retroactively created a separate document about the Flock search a week after our article was published, in which they justify the search by saying they were concerned for her safety.
404 Media’s initial reporting on the incident became national news, has been cited in several government investigations into how Flock is used by police, and has led to several reforms by Flock itself. The company and its CEO, Garrett Langley, have repeatedly used it as a high-profile example of an ‘activist’ media that is biased against his company. The documents show that the narrative pushed by the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office and repeated by Flock is not the full story, and that police did consider charging the woman with a crime.
“For months, Flock Safety and the Johnson County Sheriff insisted that she was being searched for as a missing person and accused journalists and advocates of spreading 'clickbait' misinformation,” Rin Alajaji, legislative activist at the EFF, told 404 Media. “Now we have the official records, and they prove the exact opposite: Texas deputies did investigate this woman's abortion as a ‘death investigation,’ they did use Flock Safety’s ALPR network to track her down, and they did consult prosecutors about charging her. The only misinformation came from the company and the sheriff trying to cover their tracks. We’ve warned about this for over a decade now: when a single search can access more than 83,000 cameras across nearly the entire country, the potential for abuse is enormous. This makes it crystal clear that neither the companies profiting from this technology nor the agencies deploying it can be trusted to tell the full story about how it's being used.”The documents highlight how Flock, whose cameras are installed in thousands of communities around the country, and which 404 Media has revealed police use on behalf of ICE, ultimately may not know what its customers are using the technology for. Flock declined to comment for this article.
According to the documents obtained by the EFF and shared with 404 Media, police came to the woman’s house to investigate the incident on May 9, after the woman’s partner called the police to report that she had an abortion on April 23, more than two weeks earlier. The arrest report states that they had opened a “death investigation case” regarding the fetus. The woman was not at the house at the time, though there is no indication in the arrest report that the man or the police were concerned about her whereabouts at the time.
“The incident of the abortion/miscarriage occurred on April 23, 2025,” an affidavit for the arrest of her partner says. The partner told police that he was “unaware” that the woman “had ordered a medication, off the internet, from California, that would cause her to abort or miscarry.”
The woman “aborted/miscarried while he was outside and he came in and found blood in the bathroom with what he believed was the non-viable fetus,” it says. They “got into a verbal argument and she left and had not been back to [the house] since that day. [He] collected what he thought was the fetus and put it in the freezer. When [he] was asked why he waited so long to report the incident, his answer was he had to process the event and call his family attorney.”“Detective [Calvin] Miller [a detective on the scene] was provided FedEx packaging the pill was sent in, photographs of what [the man] believed to be a fetus and the instructions on how to take the medication,” it adds.
Crucially, the affidavit notes “it was discussed at the time with the District Attorney’s Office and learned the State could not statutorily charge [the woman] for taking the pill to cause the abortion or miscarriage of the non-viable fetus.”
That same day, Johnson County Sheriff’s Department officials searched the national Flock network—consisting at the time of 88,345 cameras across the country—for the license plate belonging to a Land Rover. The stated reason was “had an abortion, search for female.” The documents do not say the time when the conversation with the District Attorney about possibly charging the woman took place, so it is unclear whether this happened before or after the Flock search. The Johnson County Sheriff’s Office and District Attorney’s Office did not respond to requests for comment for this article sent via email, phone, and fax.
Several days later, on May 14, the woman went to the police and told them that she wanted to tell them her side of the story. According to the affidavit, she said that her partner assaulted her the day she took the pill, and she showed them text messages “where they discussed her ordering the pill and taking the pill.” At some point on April 23, the day she took the pill, the two began arguing. The woman said the man allegedly put a gun to her head in front of the couple’s toddler. She says that he hit her with the butt of the gun, threw her on the bed, choked her, put the gun to her head and demanded that she “beg for your life.” “Scream all you want, no one can hear you, no one is coming to help you,” he said, according to the arrest report. “I’ll kill you right now and take off with the baby.” The man was arrested and charged with assault on May 22.
On May 28, nearly a week after the woman’s partner was arrested for assault, 404 Media learned of the May 9 Flock search by the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office using records that were obtained using a public records request. The documents showed thousands of Flock searches throughout the United States, and the reason police stated for doing a given search. We learned that Johnson County performed a search on a Land Rover for the reason of “had an abortion, search for female,” which was particularly notable because abortion rights experts have worried that police surveillance would be turned against women seeking abortions.
On May 29, we reached out to Flock for comment on the incident. Flock told us that the stated reason for the search was not the full story, and that we should call Johnson County Sheriff Adam King to learn more (we had already reached out to the sheriff’s office for comment). “According to the sheriff's office, the deputy did not search for a woman seeking an abortion. In fact, it appears as though the woman may have had self-induced wounds from an unsafe abortion, and the family called the sheriff's office looking for her because she went missing,” a Flock spokesperson said at the time.
404 Media called King, and had a nine-minute phone call with him, during which he asked multiple members of his staff for details about why the search was done and what happened. King told 404 Media that “I wanted to make sure y’all understood what that was: It wasn’t us trying to block a woman from having an abortion. It was a self-administered abortion she gave herself and her family was worried that she was going to bleed to death, and we were trying to find her to get her to a hospital. We weren’t trying to block her from leaving the state or whatever. That wasn’t the case. We just wanted to get her some medical help and that’s why we did the query on Flock.”
“The family was worried she was bleeding and needed immediate medical attention and we weren’t able to get her on the phone, they weren’t able to get her on the phone, that’s why we were checking Flock trying to find her, but it was for her safety,” he said. “That’s all it was about, her safety.”
The only family member mentioned in the court documents is the woman’s partner, who was arrested for allegedly abusing and threatening her. The Flock search is also not mentioned in the court documents, but it makes clear that the police were told at the time they learned about the abortion that it had actually taken place more than two weeks prior. There is no mention of concern about the woman’s safety in the narrative of events in the arrest report, though there is discussion of police considering whether they would be allowed to charge her with a crime.
On June 5, more than a week after 404 Media’s article was published and following subsequent national attention on the story, the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office created a new “supplemental report” about the incident in which the officer who ran the Flock search retroactively explained that he was worried about the woman’s safety and used both Flock and another powerful surveillance tool, TLO, to look her up. This supplemental report was also obtained by the EFF and shared with 404 Media.
“Deputies started to ask communication’s [sic] about looking up the victim due to a large amount of blood being found in the residence,” it states. “I never made scene on this call, just was assisting with trying to locate the victim and her children to check their welfare. I began to believe the victim may have been hurt by the [reporting person, the woman’s partner] due to the call and it not making sense […] I wanted to use resources available to help find where the victim and her children could be to make sure they were okay.”
The report, which does not mention the word “abortion” anywhere, then states that they found her license plate and an address in Dallas. The officer ran a Flock search as well as “a TLO report,” which gave him an additional address to search. TLO is a powerful lookup tool that uses information pulled from credit report header data. 404 Media has reported extensively on this tool in the past.
The case supplemental report shows it was created only after our article was initially published
From the case supplemental report, created June 5
“I entered the vehicle into FLOCK to see if we could see where the victim and her children might be at due to multiple different locations being given for the victim and her children. Deputies had attempted to try and contact the female, but were unsuccessful. The FLOCK hit showed the victim had been in Dallas prior but nothing recent. The reason for the FLOCK search was to find out what city the victim and her children might be in and give us an idea of where to look for them, due to the large area of where the victim and her children cold [sic] be at.”On June 13, King separately told the Dallas Morning News that “There was no big conspiracy there to be the abortion police [...] That wasn’t our deal, it was all about her safety.” The Dallas Morning News cited a “partial report” that it obtained which appears to be this June 5 document, which notes the “large amount of blood.”
Since we first reported on this incident, Flock and its CEO, Garrett Langley, have repeatedly stated that our reporting on the incident and an EFF blog post about it was “clickbait,” misleading, and that it oversold what happened in Johnson County. It is not clear if Flock has seen the arrest report or what Johnson County Sheriff’s Office told the company. But Flock and Langley have used King’s initial narrative of the incident to criticize media reporting of the company.
“In this case, it was an unfortunate example of where an activist journalist had a narrative in their mind and they didn’t want to look at the facts of the story, because the facts are, we have one of the most transparent systems one could build,” Langley told Forbes last month. “There was a single word ‘abortion,’ in the search. The natural conclusion is, ‘Oh, they’re searching for this woman because she had an abortion.’ But when you talk to the police department, it’s actually quite a more nuanced story, which is the family called the police department because they were worried for her well-being. It was a missing person’s case because she did administer a self-abortion. They found that woman not too far away eventually. And so when I look at this, I go ‘This is everything’s working as it should be.’”
“A family was concerned for a family member. They used Flock to help find her when she could have been unwell. She was physically OK, which is great, but due to the current political climate, this was really good clickbait,” Langley said.
The only adult “family member” of the woman who’s mentioned in police reports is her partner, who the woman left after he attacked her with a gun.
Flock and Langley also posted a blog in the aftermath of our reporting and the EFF’s own blog post about the incident in which he said the story was “clickbait-driven reporting and social media rumors,” about the case, and that the Texas abortion case “was purposefully misleading reporting.”
The EFF, he wrote, “is actively perpetuating narratives that have been proven false, even after the record has been corrected.”
“The Sheriff’s Office has reported that a local family called to ask for help–a relative had self-administered an abortion and subsequently ran away. Her family feared she was hurt and asked the Sheriff’s deputy to search for her to the best of their abilities. Deputies performed a nationwide search in Flock, the broadest search possible within the system, to try to locate her as quickly as they could,” Langley wrote. “Luckily, she was found safe and healthy in Dallas a couple of days later. No charges were ever filed against the woman and she was never under criminal investigation by Johnson County. She was being searched for as a missing person, not as a suspect of a crime.”
King, the Johnson County Sheriff, previously told 404 Media Flock was not responsible for ultimately finding the woman.
Separately, King was arrested by his own deputies in August on charges of harassing multiple female members of his staff and threatening to arrest them after they reported the harassment. King allegedly made repeated comments about the women’s appearance. Last week, King was additionally charged with aggravated perjury after allegedly lying to a grand jury about what happened. As part of his bond agreement, he has been ordered by a court to not perform background checks on his alleged victims, is not allowed access to “Global Positioning System Data” from Johnson County, and is not allowed access to a video surveillance system owned by the county.
“This update is so disappointing,” a Flock source said when 404 Media told them about the new details of the case. 404 Media granted multiple current and former Flock employees anonymity because they were not permitted to speak to the press. “As much as Flock tries to be good stewards of the powerful tech we sell, this shows it really is up to users to serve their communities in good faith. Selling to law-enforcement is tricky because we assume they will use our tech to do good and then just have to hope we're right.”
The Flock source added “Even if Flock took a stance on permitted use-cases, a motivated user could simply lie about why they're performing a search. We can never 100% know how or why our tools are being used.” A second Flock source said they believe Flock should develop a better idea of what its clients are using the company’s technology for.
“Reproductive dragnets are not hypothetical concerns. These surveillance tactics open the door for overzealous, anti-abortion state actors to amass data to build cases against people for their abortion care and pregnancy outcomes,” Ashley Kurzweil, senior policy analyst in reproductive health and rights at the National Partnership for Women & Families, told 404 Media. “Law enforcement exploitation of mass surveillance infrastructure for reproductive health criminalization promises to be increasingly disruptive to the entire abortion access and pregnancy care landscape. The prevalence of these harmful data practices and risks of legal action drive real fear among abortion seekers and helpers—even intimidating people from getting the care they need,” she added.
“Given Flock's total failure to prevent abuses, law enforcement that have paid for this surveillance technology should immediately lock down their settings for which other agencies can access their data, and should seriously reconsider whether this technology should be installed in their communities in the first place,” Senator Ron Wyden told 404 Media in a statement. “And Republican officials need to stop harassing and harming women.”

Gaza ed il dopo-conflitto: un ruolo anche per i carabinieri italiani
L'Italia si sta posizionando per svolgere un ruolo operativo nella fase post-conflitto a Gaza. La soluzione più concreta prevede l'impiego dei Carabinieri per addestrare e supportare le future forze di sicurezza locali, seguendo modelli di successo già implementati in Cisgiordania e in altre regioni. Come ha spiegato il Ministro degli Esteri, Tajani: "siamo pronti a fare la nostra parte e inviare i nostri Carabinieri il giorno dopo la fine del conflitto".
L'approccio italiano si intreccia con i negoziati sul cessate il fuoco e la governance di transizione. L'ambito d'azione includerebbe attività di polizia di prossimità, gestione graduale dell'ordine pubblico, protezione di siti sensibili e supporto alle indagini, in coordinamento con i partner europei e regionali.
L'esperienza pregressa conta. Il CoESPU (Center of Excellence for Stability Police Units) di Vicenza addestra da anni unità di polizia per contesti post-crisi; la missione MIADIT in Palestina a Gerico ha già formato migliaia di operatori in tecniche di polizia, gestione dell'ordine pubblico, indagini e tutela del patrimonio culturale.
Il valico di Rafah rimane cruciale per la fase umanitaria e la riapertura controllata dei valichi. La riattivazione della missione europea al confine con l'Egitto fornisce un canale operativo per l'assistenza, il controllo e la protezione dei flussi.
La presenza italiana richiede un quadro politico credibile. Il governo si sta concentrando su un processo in tre fasi: cessate il fuoco, accordo politico e ricostruzione. In questo contesto, sono in gioco le pressioni internazionali e gli sforzi diplomatici che coinvolgono attori regionali e gli Stati Uniti.
Perché i Carabinieri? I Carabinieri, una forza di polizia a struttura militare, combinano capacità di mediazione civile e disciplina operativa. Sono adatti alle zone grigie degli ambienti postbellici, dove la protezione dei civili, la garanzia dei servizi essenziali e il ripristino della fiducia tra le parti sono fondamentali.
Cosa aspettarsi nell'immediato. Il modello più probabile il giorno dopo la pace è "addestrare e consigliare": squadre dell'Arma a fianco delle unità locali per attività di polizia di prossimità, scene del crimine, monitoraggio dei valichi e protezione delle infrastrutture critiche.
Per l'Italia, si tratta di un test di credibilità nel Mediterraneo. Se l'operazione avrà successo, Roma consoliderà il suo ruolo di fornitore di sicurezza e rafforzerà i canali con i partner europei e arabi; in caso contrario, si correrà il rischio di incorrere in costi operativi e reputazionali.
Il Ministro della Difesa, Guido Crosetto, ha espresso sia l'intenzione che l'obbligo morale dell'Italia di essere presente nelle regioni colpite da conflitti, sottolineando in particolare l'importanza dell'approccio nazionale alla pace, della cultura dell'inclusione e della capacità unica di promuovere il dialogo. Intervenendo durante un dibattito con Matteo Renzi alla Stazione Leopolda, Crosetto ha affrontato il potenziale coinvolgimento dei Carabinieri nel piano di pace dell'amministrazione Trump per Gaza. Ha sottolineato il lungo impegno dell'Italia per la pace attraverso la sua partecipazione attiva alle missioni delle Nazioni Unite, alle operazioni europee e alle iniziative della NATO. Il Ministro ha sottolineato che le forze armate italiane non solo sono altamente addestrate, ma portano con sé anche una distinta "italianità", una qualità che le distingue in contesti internazionali in cui la presenza militare può spesso essere percepita come un'imposizione o un simbolo di potere.
Crosetto ha spiegato come l'esercito e i Carabinieri italiani siano stati in grado di creare fiducia in diverse regioni, tra cui il Libano, dove stanno attualmente contribuendo all'addestramento delle forze di polizia locali. Questa fiducia, ha spiegato, nasce dalla capacità delle forze armate italiane di interagire con le comunità in modo rispettoso e inclusivo, trattando le persone come pari piuttosto che da una posizione di superiorità. Questo approccio affonda le sue radici nella vasta esperienza dei Carabinieri che operano in migliaia di città italiane, dove interagiscono con cittadini di ogni estrazione sociale, dagli anziani ai funzionari locali, promuovendo un senso di connessione e comprensione che portano con sé ovunque vadano.
Il Ministro ha inoltre descritto la situazione attuale come l'inizio di un lungo e impegnativo percorso verso la pace, che richiede pazienza, perseveranza e lo sforzo collettivo di tutte le parti coinvolte. Nonostante le difficoltà future, Crosetto ha espresso un cauto ottimismo, affermando che la comunità internazionale, che comprende nazioni arabe, paesi occidentali e persino la Russia, ha mostrato un raro livello di unità nel sostenere il processo di pace. Questa cooperazione senza precedenti, ha sostenuto, offre la speranza per un futuro in cui sia Israele che il popolo palestinese possano coesistere nel rispetto dei loro diritti e delle loro aspirazioni.

Furti di auto di lusso: carabinieri smantellano organizzazione con l'aiuto di poliziotti spagnoli e belgi
Una rete criminale organizzata altamente specializzata, responsabile del furto di oltre 100 auto ibride di lusso, è stata smantellata con successo in un'importante operazione internazionale guidata dai Carabinieri italiani, con il significativo supporto di Europol ed Eurojust.
I veicoli rubati, tra cui modelli ibridi di alta gamma, hanno un valore totale stimato di almeno 3 milioni di euro. Il gruppo criminale di lingua russa, composto principalmente da cittadini moldavi, si è concentrato sui veicoli ibridi di alta gamma nel nord Italia e nella ricca regione spagnola di Marbella. Una volta rubate, le auto e i loro componenti, come carrozzeria, batterie e parti meccaniche, sono stati trasportati attraverso il porto europeo di Anversa verso mercati illegali internazionali, dove sono stati venduti o riutilizzati per usi illeciti.
L'operazione, avvenuta il 7 ottobre 2025, ha portato all'arresto di nove persone a Reggio Emilia e Lombardia. Oltre agli arresti, le forze dell'ordine hanno sequestrato 35.000 euro in contanti e 150.000 euro in criptovalute.
L'operazione ha coinvolto circa 100 agenti provenienti da diversi paesi, tra cui agenti della Guardia Civil spagnola dislocati in Belgio e Italia, nonché squadre dei Carabinieri italiani di stanza in Spagna e Belgio ed infine dalla Romania (Directorate for Investigating Organized Crime and Terrorism, DIICOT). Anche esperti di criptovalute provenienti da Belgio, Italia e Spagna sono stati coinvolti nelle ricerche per proteggere e recuperare asset digitali illeciti. È stato istituito un centro di coordinamento presso #Eurojust, mentre #Europol ha inviato esperti e un ufficio mobile in Italia e Belgio per supportare le indagini.
La rete criminale operava con un livello di sofisticatezza simile alla precisione di tipo militare. Gli investigatori hanno scoperto una serie di tattiche utilizzate dal gruppo, tra cui squadre dedicate al furto d'auto, al deposito e alla contraffazione. I criminali utilizzavano localizzatori GPS per monitorare i veicoli presi di mira e strumenti elettronici per bypassare i sistemi di sicurezza avanzati. Hanno anche alterato i numeri di telaio e le targhe di auto dismesse per camuffare i veicoli rubati. Sono stati inoltre identificati collegamenti con compagnie di navigazione e affiliati criminali, che hanno facilitato il transito di auto rubate attraverso il porto di Anversa. L'indagine ha inoltre rivelato un complesso sistema di pagamento che coinvolgeva diverse piattaforme e wallet di criptovalute, con trasferimenti di criptovalute per un valore di circa 1 milione di euro.
Europol ha svolto un ruolo centrale nel coordinamento della fase internazionale dell'indagine, riunendo investigatori di tutti i paesi coinvolti e ospitando riunioni operative presso la propria sede centrale. Ha inoltre fornito supporto alle autorità nazionali attraverso analisi e condivisione di intelligence e continuerà a offrire supporto in loco.
Eurojust ha supportato una squadra investigativa congiunta (#JIT #SIC) istituita nel 2024 dalle autorità italiane e spagnole per smantellare la rete della criminalità organizzata. L'indagine ha visto la collaborazione di diverse agenzie delle forze dell'ordine, tra cui la Polizia Giudiziaria Federale di Anversa in Belgio, i #Carabinieri di Reggio Emilia in Italia e la Guardia Civil in Spagna. L'operazione è stata supportata dalla rete @ON, finanziata dalla Commissione Europea e guidata dalla Direzione Investigativa Antimafia (#DIA) italiana.
