  17. University of New Hampshire: Bystander videos are ‘fundamentally changing how the news is made’. “Just weeks before [Alex] Pretti’s death, Renee Good was shot and killed by federal agents during Operation Metro Surge, a large-scale ICE deployment in Minnesota. In the Good case, too, bystander videos analyzed by professional journalists contradicted the government’s account of the incident.”

    “…
    • DeFlock can generate routes that avoid known [Automated License Plate Readers] ALPR cameras entirely.
    • Users can choose how far they want to stay from surveillance cameras.
    • The tool arrives as scrutiny of license plate readers continues to grow.
    For years, automated license plate readers have quietly spread across America. They sit on utility poles, at intersections, near shopping centers, and along roads most drivers use every day. The overwhelming majority of motorists never notice them. A free website called DeFlock changes that by showing where many of those cameras are located and, more importantly, helping users avoid them if they choose. In a world where surveillance is often invisible, that’s a surprisingly powerful feature…”

    “Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs or LPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car's location, date, and time. They also capture your car's make, model, colour, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points.
    These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. These systems are marketed as indispensable tools to fight crime, but they ignore the powerful tools police already have to track criminals, such as cell phone location data, creating a loophole that doesn't require a warrant…”

I am not the most prolific user of AI - for ethical and environmental reasons as well as simply not having a lot of good use cases for it (much as my occasional poor sentence structure might argue otherwise) - but from this week's E-Sylum, here is an interesting use case - using AI to track down stolen ancient coins: coinbooks.org/v29/esylum_v29n1
