SCOOP: Spyware maker NSO Group confirmed to us that the company has been acquired by a U.S. investment group.

NSO's spokesperson said the group "has invested tens of millions of dollars in the company and has acquired controlling ownership," but declined to say who is behind the investment.

The utter, shocking gall of PETER THIEL, co-founder of PALANTIR and funder of ANDURIL to say “be care of folks offering safety as a comoditity but only if they conform to your lifestyle”

What’s unbelievably self-deluded about this is that quite literally, this guy has spent the last 10 years propping up a suite of companies whose central thesis has been “give us billions of dollars and we can help provide safety from racial diversity that will bring about civilization collapse.”

These do not look like police videos. They look like campaign ones." I spoke about DHS's glossy, military like videos. The deportations are for the camera. @cnn.com @zbyronwolf.bsky.social

!!!!!!!!!!

If you where in Atlanta, one of those might have been me.

I wrote about Chicago: "Is this city burning? There is a definite answer to the question. In all these cities, the answer is no. No American city is currently on fire, and if Chicago is a war zone, it’s because it’s being invaded by the president."

In 2019 when I was interviewing for the job of anti-surveillance activist at EFF I was asked what is biggest civil liberties threat that no is talking about yet---and my answer at the time was Ring. Given the general climate and its capabilities, it's even worse now.

Get. Rid. Of. Your. Ring.

🚨 We wrote about Flock rolling out "distress detection" that monitored human voices on their gunshot detection devices & asked how it was lawful under eavesdropping laws.

Now, they've changed the ad to replace a "SCREAMING" alert with a "DISTRESS" alert. See below:

New: DHS has reassigned hundreds of national security specialists, including cyber personnel from CISA, into jobs that support President Donald Trump’s mass deportation efforts and said it would fire anyone who refuses to go along. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Because certainly there's no reason why this history might be terrifyingly relevant right now, here's a link to preorder @stschrader1.bsky.social's "Blue Power" on how police in the US organized to exempt themselves from democratic oversight and control: redemmas.org/titles/48838...

Many groups need your $, BUT you can support @eff.org's awesome work fighting the digital surveillance feeding abortion and immigration policing and the unholy alliance between big tech and an authoritarian government by buying one of this tremendously awesome "Let's Sue the Government" T-shirts.

Ken Paxton announcing undercover operations reminds me of when J.Edgar Hoover announced 25% of all communist party members were undercover operatives—the objective is the same, just to sow distrust within the movement and scare people out of participating.

Thanks for sharing EFF's work!

NEW: In May, a Texas police department said they used the powerful Flock surveillance network against a woman who had an abortion "for her safety"

Newly obtained court records show it was a 'death investigation,' and they considered charging her with a crime

New: Records obtained by the @aclum.bsky.social show police across the state are conducting dragnet surveillance of motorists and sharing their location information with cops in states that have banned abortion and gender affirming care, and those that work w/ICE data.aclum.org/2025/10/07/f...

A county commissioner tried to take down a License Plate Reader in his jurisdiction where elected officials had ended their contract w/ Flock. Police arrested him.

Who really runs these counties? Politicians gave blank checks to police and are now learning the genie is out of the bottle.

What could possibly go wrong with putting giant microphones in cities, funded by law enforcement?

EFF found the documents, here's our blog:

🚨🚨 Both the police and Flock's defense for why Texas police searched the entire country for License Plate Reader data to find woman who had self-administered an abortion was because she was a missing person and family was concerned with her health. Now documents reveal they wanted to charge her.
