Take your “Donroe Doctrine” and shove it.
The mockery and destruction of our closest relationship, not just in the Americas but in general, is not something a party that considers themselves “Pan-Americanism advocates” would ever promote.
We believe the United States should be a good neighbor; one that repairs the troubles of our past and builds towards a better future.
Instead, not only are we further straining our relationship with our closest neighbor and ally, but we are actively driving them into the arms of the European Union and away from us.
And to top it off, we are doing the whole “Gulf of America” thing to Lake Ontario, renaming it “Lake America.”
As a Great Laker myself, I have to finally ask:
Are you out your gourd? Are you doing this because you’re bored? Are you having a laugh?
What’s the end goal? What could possibly be the justification behind the self-destruction of everything the United States has built up positively, and the escalation of all the worst the United States has been?
The United States Pirate Party believes the United States should be a good neighbor. That’s not a complicated position, and that’s not something that we passively believe in.
It is essential to future generations in the New World that the United States reverses track. If we are to advocate for a Pan-American foreign policy, then we must call out when we are moving in the opposite direction.
We once referred to our current path as a “marathon in the wrong direction,” and nothing has changed to make that statement wrong.
We are still sprinting, and we’re doing it at a record pace.
H.O.M.E.S. is how we remember the Great Lakes: Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie and Superior.
If this name change goes through, we’ll need to remember S.H.A.M.E. instead, which is something in short supply in this administration.
We wholly condemn these childish attempts at… whatever this is. Whatever it is, it’s the opposite of what we want from the United States. It is the opposite of being a good neighbor.
How long until New Mexico is renamed to “New America?”
Enough is enough. This isn’t “making America great again.”
This is making América not trust us.
What kind of neighbors are we? What kind of neighbors do we want to be?

Il Dipartimento di Stato non accusa Autistici/Inventati di aver fatto altro che fornire account di posta elettronica "irrintracciabili". Ma questo è sufficiente per dichiararla organizzazione terroristica.
"L'idea che un'organizzazione che offre servizi di hosting alternativi – per email, siti web e altri servizi – possa essere designata come organizzazione terroristica semplicemente per aver fornito un servizio richiesto da molte persone... è spaventosa", afferma Jillian York, direttrice per la libertà di espressione internazionale presso l'organizzazione no-profit Electronic Frontier Foundation. "Potrebbe sembrare un'ipotesi complottista, ma il fatto che questa decisione provenga da un'amministrazione che ha stretti legami con i giganti della Silicon Valley, in un momento in cui la sfiducia nei confronti di queste aziende è molto alta in diverse fasce della società, non mi sembra una coincidenza."

BDK haut zur Rechtfertigung der Datenanalyse und biometrischer Abgleiche Beispiele zur Erfassung von Straftätern auf Versammlungen raus. Das sei ja auch Aufgabe der Polizei. Das Problem: Repressive Maßnahmen der Strafverfolgung sind als Bundesrecht in der StPO geregelt. Das ThürPAG regelt aber die Gefahrenabwehr, ist also im präventiven Bereich angesiedelt. Tja.

Die GdP bewertet den PAG-Entwurf differenziert, sie stellt die Rolle von Grundrechten statt law&order in den Vordergrund. Sie unterstützt eine Modernisierung des PAGs, verlangt aber mehr Rechtssicherheit und praktische Handhabbarkeit.
Zu unbestimmt und nicht rechtssicher auslegbar seien Formulierungen wie "übersehbarer Zeitraum" oder "nicht dauerhaft und nicht flächendeckend"
GdP zu Auswirkungen auf Versammlungen:
"Wenn ich auf eine friedliche Demo gehe und über mir fliegt die ganze Zeit eine Drohne herum, dann würde ich mich unwohl fühlen."
"Dann nehmen Leute ihr Grundrecht im Zweifelsfall nicht wahr und das sehen wir kritisch."
Die GdP erkennt auch richtig, dass wenn bereits Straftaten begangen wurden, die StPO und nicht mehr das ThürPAG greift.
Ringo Mühlmann (Afd) aus seiner Zeit als Polizist:
Damals wurden auch ständig Videobilder von Versammlungen live ins Einsatzzentrum übertragen, das wurde doch immer so gemacht, also wo ist das Problem?

Der Slot zu den Polizeigewerkschaften ist vorbei (sorry hatten keine Motivation die DPolG zu dokumentieren und haben unsere Mittagspause verlängert 😁).
Weiter geht's jetzt mit einer ganzen Reihe an Jura-Profs.
Los legt Dr. Ruppert von der MLU München und zieht ein vernichtendes Urteil:
Der Gesetzesentwurf berührt an mehreren Stellen den Bereich der Verfassungwidrigkeit. Der Eingriffsintensität auf Grundrechte wird im Gesetz kaum Rechnung getragen. Zahlreiche Eingriffsvoraussetzungen sind ungenügend, Abstufung lassen sich vermissen, es gibt zu viele Vorfeldverlagerungen. Zahlreiche Formulierungen sind zu unbestimmt. Technische Grenzen und Präzisierungen fehlen ebenso wie Kontrollmechanismen.
Weiter kritisiert er, dass viele eingriffsintensive Maßnahmen wie die Datenanalyse weit im Gefahrenvorfeld liegen und nicht – wie im Polizeirecht typisch – an das vorliegend einer konkreten Gefahr geknüpft sind.
Kontrolle und Evaluation ist in Bezug auf die verwendete Software notwendig.
Fraglich ist, mit welchen Daten und Algorithmen eine Software trainiert wurde, welche Realität diese abbilden, was eine Software als "normal" betrachtet und was nicht. Es geht nicht nur darum, welche Suchparameter zu einem Treffer führen, sondern auch, welche dies nicht tun.
Auch ein Ausschluss problematischer Softwareanbieter fehlt.
Dr. Ruppert nimmt gerade einfach das gesamte Gesetz auseinander.
Bereits Datenerhebung und Datenabgleich sind Grundrechtseingriffe, nicht erst die Treffer und Folgemaßnahmen. Eine Bagatellgrenze gebe es nicht.
Kontrolle und Evaluation haben durch eine unabhängige Stelle, ggf auch aus der Wissenschaft, zu erfolgen, nicht durch die Institutionen, welche die Software selber anwenden. Es braucht eine Kombination von technischer und rechtlicher Expertise. Deren Notwendigkeit gehört auch im Polizeigesetz festgeschrieben.
Jetzt spricht Dr. Schwab vom Max-Planck-Institut Freiburg.
Die elektronische Fußfessel würde eher einer Meldeauflage ähneln. (!?)
Im Vergleich zu anderen Bundesländern ginge es auch härter und weitgehender. Thüringen hat viel aufzuholen. Zumindest bei der Datenanalyse besteht Nachbesserungsbedarf.
Kritisiert wir die enorme Streubreite von automatisierter Datenanalyse. Es könnte auch zahllose Menschen von außerhalb Thüringens in die Datenanalyse einbezogen werden.
Weiter kritisiert sie, dass der Einsatz von KI zur Datenanalyse in der sicherheitspolitischen Debatte inzwischen als alternativlos betrachtet wird. Zudem sollte im Polizeirecht nicht immer an die Grenzen dessen gegangen werden, was verfassungsrechtlich gerade noch zulässig ist.
Aha, die PAG dieser Bundesländer müssen also auch dringend abgeräumt werden.

Bullshit
The Trump administration’s attacks on the press — subpoenas and raids, threats from regulators, revocations of access, and meritless lawsuits and prosecutions — have led to an immeasurable chilling effect on journalism. The impact is heightened when these tactics target freelancers without resources or institutional backing. And with constant reports of journalists being laid off from their full-time jobs, there are a lot of freelancers out there.
So why are many of the news publishers that contract with these freelancers compounding the chill by requiring them to agree to indemnification clauses? These provisions pass on risk to freelancers by essentially saying that if the outlet gets sued over something the freelancer wrote, the freelancer is on the hook for legal fees and judgments. Some are written so that it doesn’t even matter whether the freelancer did anything wrong.
Mickey Osterreicher, general counsel for the National Press Photographers Association, believes “these provisions send exactly the wrong message to freelancers. They effectively say, ‘We’re willing to publish your work, but we’re also willing to shift our legal risk onto you.’”
In this era of strategic lawsuits against public participation intended to make criticizing the powerful financially ruinous, these clauses incentivize timidity. Even in best-case scenarios, the cost of disposing of a frivolous lawsuit can be crippling to a freelancer. But many states, and the federal courts, lack legal protections that make quick dispositions possible.
These provisions send exactly the wrong message to freelancers. They effectively say, ‘We’re willing to publish your work, but we’re also willing to shift our legal risk onto you.’
Mickey Osterreicher, general counsel for the National Press Photographers Association
Freelance journalist Stephanie Bouchard says it’s rare to be presented with a contract without an indemnification clause (though she says smaller local publications — in her home state of Maine, at least — are more likely to omit them).
They’re also often presented as nonnegotiable, which Bouchard calls “a red flag” about whether the organization treats freelancers as partners at all.
Osterreicher points out that the clauses — which he notes have also crept into media credentialing agreements that photographers must sign to cover events — can be drafted so broadly that they “arguably require a freelancer to bear the costs of defending the outlet against claims resulting from the outlet’s own editorial decisions.”
So how did we get here? Is there an explanation other than that news outlets are taking advantage of superior bargaining power to bully freelancers? Perhaps it’s more inattention than malice, Osterreicher says. “I suspect many publishers and event organizers include them simply because they’ve been carried forward from one version of an agreement to the next, without much thought as to whether they’re necessary, enforceable, or consistent with the organization’s professed support for independent journalism.”
Susan Seager, a First Amendment attorney and director of the Press Freedom Project at UC Irvine School of Law, suspects the clauses are often “ripped from the playbook of large entertainment companies.” She explained that contract clauses designed for situations where the content creator is a well-funded production company “don’t make sense with a freelancer or book author with few financial resources,” she added.
Of course, news outlets are struggling too. But the clauses offer little actual protection. If anything, Seager says, they offer “a false sense of security.” One, enforcing them would drive most journalists into bankruptcy. You can’t get blood from a stone, as the saying goes.
Two, plaintiffs rarely sue journalists without also suing the far wealthier outlets that publish their work. When that happens, it’s in the outlet’s interests to retain experienced lawyers — otherwise, the reporter’s lawyer, if they can afford one at all, can tank the defense for everyone.
That means indemnification clauses accomplish nothing other than their inherent chilling effect. They’re almost never actually used, but reporters don’t know that, and if they do, they still don’t want to risk being the exception. For Bouchard, that means she needs to weigh whether her payment for a project — which may be just a few hundred dollars — is worth risking financial ruin.
In Bouchard’s view, what a publisher puts in a contract sets the tone for the whole relationship. She notes that outlets often encourage her to hold her nose and sign because the odds of litigation are low. An outlet telling a freelancer not to worry while the outlet is itself worried enough to try to pass on the risk is, in her words, gross.
Still, publishers are often inflexible, whether out of greed or efficiency (outlets that contract with lots of freelancers can’t involve their lawyers to negotiate each one individually).
Further complicating things, according to freelance journalist Karen Fischer, is that many journalists don’t prioritize negotiating indemnification clauses, given how much else there is to negotiate in a new assignment, from payment terms to sourcing expectations to deadlines.
Nonetheless, both Osterreicher and Seager encourage journalists to push back. Seager notes that some of her clients have succeeded in getting indemnification language removed entirely, or at least modified to exclude situations where liability is the publisher’s fault. Several freelancers said that unions and professional associations of which they’re members have often been willing to help advocate on their behalfs.
Fischer said one editor was sympathetic to her recent request to modify an indemnification clause, but nonetheless told her the publication couldn’t release payment for work she’d already completed unless she signed the contract as written.
She signed, on the understanding her requested revision would go to the legal department and she’d be presented with a superseding contract once it was fixed. She hasn’t heard back since.
Clearly, the long-term fix can’t rest on individual freelancers chipping away, one contract at a time.
It’s time for publishers to cut these oppressive clauses out of their contracts. The SLAPP filer’s goal is to make hard-hitting journalism feel so dangerous and expensive that reporters self-censor. The industry shouldn’t be doing their job for them. Deleting oppressive indemnification clauses would show good faith and improve the journalism that freelancers produce, while costing publishers nothing.

Tipp:
"Wahlumfragen in Medien: Das Für und Wider"

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: President Donald Trump is threatening a multibillion-dollar defamation lawsuit against one of his critics.
At first glance, Trump’s $5 billion threat against the Center for American Progress, made public last week, looks like more of the same. Trump has already sued multiple news outlets over reporting he says defamed him.
But this latest threat is different, and even more dangerous.
The alleged defamation in a report by CAP isn’t about Trump’s private conduct from before he was president, like his lawsuits against The Wall Street Journal or The New York Times. It’s not about a specific statement made by Trump personally, like his lawsuit against the BBC. It’s about whether his government’s policies are as effective as the Trump administration claims they are.
Specifically, Trump threatened to sue CAP over its report concluding that the administration’s deployment of the National Guard to various cities has not reduced crime. The report argues that violent crime was already declining and that the administration is using that preexisting trend to prove the efficacy of sending troops to American cities.
This kind of analysis and argument is central to political debate. Think tanks, journalists, advocacy groups, and regular people make these kinds of arguments about presidents and administrations every day. Whether a particular policy is effective or an administration is being honest about its policies is the bread and butter of reports and analysis from journalists and civil society organizations on all sides of the political spectrum.
By attempting to turn criticism of government policy into a personal defamation claim, Trump’s threatened lawsuit against CAP undermines fundamental First Amendment protections. It also risks silencing the very analysis and debate about the decisions of government that are at the heart of our democracy.
The principle that government officials cannot use the law to punish criticism of the government has deep roots in U.S. history. The Sedition Act of 1798 is a particularly infamous example of a time that the government tried to ignore this prohibition.
That law — which criminalized printing “false, scandalous and malicious writing or writings against the government of the United States, or either house of the Congress of the United States, or the President of the United States” — provoked a furious reaction from James Madison, the chief author of the First Amendment. Before it was allowed to expire a few years later, the Sedition Act was used in partisan prosecutions of journalists and political opponents of the White House.
More than 150 years later, the Supreme Court acknowledged that shameful and unconstitutional history in New York Times v. Sullivan. That case is best known for establishing the “actual malice” standard for defamation claims brought by public officials, which helps protect against officials using defamation law to suppress criticism of government.
But Sullivan also established that the government itself cannot bring defamation suits, and it emphasized that public officials can’t evade that rule simply by bringing the lawsuit in their own names.
Trump’s threatened lawsuit against CAP runs smack into those principles. It’s true that Trump threatened to sue CAP in his individual capacity, claiming its report has defamed him personally. But CAP’s report is directed at what the Trump administration is doing. The First Amendment forbids the government from suing CAP for saying that its policies are ineffective. Trump shouldn’t be able to accomplish the same result by recasting that criticism as statements that defame him personally.
Otherwise, virtually any disagreement over government policy could become a potential defamation claim — no matter if it’s being threatened against the left or the right. Should President Joe Biden have been able to sue the Heritage Foundation for defamation over its claims that he made false statements about illegal immigration or voter ID laws? Of course not.
If the president can turn a claim that “your policy isn’t working the way you say it is” into a personal defamation lawsuit, the chilling effect would extend beyond think tanks. Journalists who analyze government policy would face the same threat, as would op-ed writers, academics, and even ordinary citizens.
If Trump actually follows through and sues CAP, the courts should reject it out of hand. To do otherwise would transform defamation law into something it was never meant to be: a modern-day Sedition Act, giving the government the power to silence its critics.

🇮🇹 Il collettivo Autistici/Inventati finisce nella lista di entità terroristiche degli Stati Uniti
Il collettivo italiano Autistici/Inventati, noto per la sua lotta per i diritti digitali tramite la fornitura di piattaforme libere ad altre realtà, è stato sanzionato con l'accusa di aver supportato due organizzazioni considerate¹ estremiste negli Stati Uniti: Rose City Antifa e Jane's Revenge.
Il collettivo fornisce circa 16.000 indirizzi di posta, dà casa a 1.500 siti, gestisce 5.500 bollettini (o mailing list) e tiene in piedi 10.000 blog. Invece che bloccare i singoli contenuti considerati "problematici" il governo statunitense ha deciso di agire sull'intera infrastruttura, creando un precedente di censura non applicata solo alle singole realtà "scomode" ma anche a chi le rende possibili fornendo servizi.
Le realtà sanzionate per terrorismo sono elencate in una lista, la Specially designated global terrorist. Tra i nomi, spiccano Al-Qaeda, ISIS e Boko Haram - nomi ai quali ora fa compagnia anche Autistici/Inventati.
Finire nella lista equivale a essere designati come entità terroristiche globali, con il conseguente congelamento dei beni e divieto di tutte le transizioni verso gli Stati Uniti. Ieri sera il collettivo ha rimosso PayPal dai metodi di pagamento.
Etica Digitale trova assurdo come una realtà che dal 2001 si batte per una rete più libera e sana sia messa allo stesso livello di assassini spietati. Trova ulteriormente assurdo come il governo statunitense, cui compagnie come Microsoft e Palantir (giusto per citarne un paio) sono state additate dall'ONU come complici del genocidio palestinese, decida di prendersela con determinati gruppi, quando dovrebbe prima guardarsi allo specchio e farsi un enorme esame di coscienza col sangue che ha sulle proprie mani. La nostra vicinanza ad Autistici/Inventati.

¹Dopo qualche verifica, non risulta che Rose City Antifa abbia mai commesso crimini, mobilitandosi dal 2007 contro le realtà neonaziste (sulle quali non si può dire altrettanto) a Portland, Oregon.

È uno dei possibili "qualcos'altro" a cui alludevo.
Mi sembra la reazione di una persona esasperata.

Quello che volevo dire è che qui forse si esagera un po'...
La condivisione di dati non riguardava nulla di personale, erano dei turni di lavoro mi è parso di capire.
Ha fatto ricorso e il Garante gli ha dato ragione. In un caso normale uno si fermerebbe, invece lui ha riportato la cosa all'ufficio scolastico regionale e non contento pure alla GdF.
Nessuno mi convincerà mai che una persona normale faccia un macello del genere perché la scuola ha pubblicato in un'area riservata del sito i suoi turni di lavoro 😁
