In my opinion and experience, this post (and the article it links to) shows the harshest lesson that #localfirst is trying to teach people. If the only copy of your data lives in someone else's cloud, then going bankrupt could cost you everything.

Your data matters. Make sure to protect it using the 321 method: 3 copies of your data on 2 different types of storage with 1 of them being off-site. Anything less, and you could find yourself in this exact situation.

And I don't want that for you. I've been there, and it's a terrible place to be.

Isle of Man's 2004 EU adequacy decision is real and useful. It was never built to answer a 2026 AI-routing question.

Beyond the headlines figures, there's little transparency over the extent of surveillance that those referred into Prevent will face.

Being neither wholly owned by policing or by counter-terrorism, there appears to be no oversight or parliamentary scrutiny of data sharing, processing and storage.

#prevent #surveillance #dataprotection #precrime #policing #ukpolitics #ukpol

Prevent is expanding the surveillance state at an unruly rate.

Public sector workers shouldn't be co-opted as agents of counter-terror policing. People in need of support shouldn't be stigmatised as suspect.

We need real investment in education, community health services and local infrastructure.

#prevent #surveillance #dataprotection #precrime #policing #ukpolitics #ukpol

Prevent is meant to identify people at risk of radicalisation before any crime has been committed.

But over 50% of referrals fall under 'no fixed ideology'.

And governments have added more categories into the mix, bloating the system with referrals that don't belong under a counter-terrorism lens.

Prevent referrals have shot up by ~40% in England and Wales 📈

Kids, teens and vulnerable people are being pushed into a mass surveillance programme where 80% of referrals don't go anywhere. But their data remains in the system.

It’s clear that a programme designed for counter-terrorism has lost the plot.

Under 18s make up the majority of referrals into Prevent.

Over a third are people with mental health conditions and people who are neurodivergent.

Often referrals are made to fast track people to get support. Long-term surveillance is the trade off.

Prevent is the wrong answer.

If you want to know how much the airline KLM cares about your privacy, install Privacy Badger in your browser, go and book a flight, proceed through to the payment information. View the trackers/beacons.

( They're by no means alone, far from it.. they're just another huge corporation that don't understand the word #privacy 💩)

Oh, and yes, most of the trackers/beacons were from US big tech, no surprises there.
