  6. The ACLU sued a landlord for forcing AI surveillance into tenants' homes.

    This isn't a dystopia. It's just a Friday.

  9. Your lease didn't just rent you a roof. It rented you a node in a network.

    Smart locks, thermostats, and water sensors are logging your life to the cloud. And you didn't consent.

    Episode 25: The "Smart Building" trap & how to fight back.

  10. You chose the smart vacuum. You didn't choose the smart lock on your front door.

    One you can unplug. The other? You're forced to use it. You can't swap it for a dumb deadbolt. You can't opt out. It's in the lease.

    Your home shouldn't be a surveillance tool you can't turn off.

  11. Your smart lock doesn't just open your door. It opens a database your landlord has access to.

    Every entry. Every exit. Every guest. Timestamped and stored forever.

    And you didn't even choose the brand.

    It's not all hopeless though. There are ways to push back. Listen to episode 25, and join the resistance

  12. Your landlord doesn't just own the walls. They own the data.

    Smart locks. Thermostats. Water sensors. They are logging your comings, goings, and habits to the cloud. And you didn't choose them.

    Stop renting a surveillance node. Start reclaiming your sanctuary.

  13. Starmer Pledges Sweeping Renter Protections Amid Local Election Push

    England's Renters' Rights Act starts May 1, 2026, banning 'no-fault' evictions and changing landlord-tenant rules. Find out how it affects you.

  14. Starting May 1, 2026, landlords in England can no longer evict tenants without a reason. This is a major change from the previous 'no-fault' eviction system.

  15. The arbitration of #RentersRights needs to be taken over by federal courts and away from a Tribunal set up. Renters rights aren’t being upheld right across the country. Alongside the affordability is an exploitation and abuse crisis. #housing #auspol

  16. CALLING: Any lawyer in #Brisbane who is willing to come to my home to read, look, assess and then attest formally in a written statement to the veracity of evidence I have submitted to QCAT, in tenancy matters, is welcomed. Please contact me. ASAP. 🙏 #legalhelp #auspol #RentersRights

  17. Real estate companies are run by unscrupulous weasels. We're in a snowstorm and the heating keeps cutting out with an 11-month-old in the house. I've complained multiple times and they always manage to dodge responsibility.

    Anyone know how to break a shitty lease? Anyone renting a 2BR in Cambridge?

    Either way, avoid Skyline Realty at all costs.

  23. Bộ Công Thương ban hành quy định mới: Chủ nhà trọ không được thu tiền điện vượt quá mức ghi trên hóa đơn. Nếu người thuê nhà không ký hợp đồng điện trực tiếp với đơn vị cung cấp, tổng số tiền điện thu từ người thuê phải thấp hơn hoặc bằng hóa đơn thanh toán. Quy định nhằm bảo vệ người tiêu dùng, tránh lạm thu gây bức xúc.

  24. Everyday people deserve and require respect and care from harm. #RaiseTheRate While there’s a #HousingCrisis let’s have a #MoratoriumOnEvictions and bring all empty properties back onto the market: for sale or rent. Housing prices are harming Australians. #auspol #RentersRights #ruleoflaw #SOS

  25. Thanks to Delegate Katrina Callsen for sitting down with me to talk about the mighty tome of legislation requests approved by Council. Somehow we could not address all six pages but I am hopeful we will see some meaningful progress for the people of Charlottesville in Richmond this year after many years of patience. #VaLeg #KatrinaCallsen #housing #zoning #TaxReform #RentersRights #inflation #transit #cville

  26. Governments are finally pushing back — another Aussie city is cracking down on Airbnb and short-term rentals, forcing investors to rethink the “easy money” model.
    Property should be for homes, not profit-machines. These reforms show that some leaders are prioritising the long-term housing needs of people, not just the wealthy few who view homes as cash cows.

  27. "Here are five headline measures that will be coming into effect:
    * Not only will no-fault evictions end, but tenants will be able to stay in their home until they decide to leave as ‘fixed-term assured tenancies’ are removed
    * Ending unlimited advance rent payments
    * Helping tenants challenge rent hikes
    * Ending blanket pet bans
    * Ending rent bidding wars"

  28. Renters rights and the money behind them must be shown respect. This is nothing more than a controlled and abusive system. The rule of law has been abrogated for the rule of he who owns more. Not good. #ruleoflaw #HousingCrisis #auspol #RentersRights #PovertyKills #PovertyIsInequality

  33. LABOR RADIO (36 min.)

    Lela Schwartz and Mike Edera of the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) Housing Working Group lay out their campaign for the Renters Bill of Rights, a nine-point program soon to be brought to the Portland City Council to adopt as an ordinance. Copied largely from a similar measure led by the Tacoma DSA and passed by voters there, the Renters Bill of Rights seeks to limit rent increases, fees and evictions without costing the Portland taxpayer.

    The DSA sees this campaign, which features a Renters Town Hall on Saturday, September 20th, 2-4pm at PCC SE, as part of their overall socialist program to build working class power.

  35. Q: Should tenants take part of "Residents Associations," or should those only include owner/occupiers and landlords?

    A: Yes, they should! They RESIDE in the area, don't they? Furthermore, many tenants take more interest in their neighbourhood and are more proactive than owners.

    We live nearly a decade in the same place, go to public community meetings, we care about improving our area but cannot be members?

  36. Despite #BCNDP saying they’ve stopped #renovictions in #BritishColumbia they’re still very much happening. After a ruling from the Residential Tenancy Branch #RTB dozens of #Esquimalt #seniors are being kicked out in four months for the new owners to do renovations.

    Many of the #renters being displaced are #LowIncome, either on #disability or a #FixedPension. As a result, most of them can’t afford market rent, and fear they could be homeless.

    Because the new owner is doing renovations, not a total demolition, Esquimalt’s #Tenant Assistance Policy isn’t triggered. Any stronger policy is the #BCgovernment jurisdiction.

    “It’s time for the provincial government to actually stop this from happening. If they really want to stop renovictions, then they need to change the laws,” said Douglas King, executive director of #TogetherAgainstPovertySociety.

    King says what’s needed is a BC-wide #TenantAssistance #policy to better #ProtectTenants facing #displacement, but also to prevent #taxpayers from paying for the consequences down the line.
