In addition to perpetrating ethnic cleansing and outright genocide against Palestinians, Zionists have endangered Jewish people around the world, not least by contributing to the rise of the far right, which has unsurprisingly fostered a new wave of antisemitism.

A reminder that Big Brother is in your pocket:
“Surveillance contractors around the world create massive datasets of phones’, and by extension people’s movements, and then sell access to the data to government agencies. In turn, U.S. agencies have used these tools without a warrant or court order.”

"The documents also show that ICE is planning to once again use location data remotely harvested from peoples’ smartphones after previously saying it had stopped the practice." -- @josephcox.bsky.social for @404media.co:

“It’s been some time since ICE has been seen using a tool known as a Stingray, or a cell-site simulator, in its attempts to find and remove undocumented immigrants. The tool tricks a phone into thinking it’s a cell tower, and when a suspect’s device connects, the cops can trace its location.”
🚨NEW🚨 A recently-unsealed warrant shows how ICE is using controversial cell tower simulators to locate undocumented individuals.
Contract records also show a recent order for the surveillance devices, also known as Stingrays, bundled in with some snooping vehicles.
