#Texas and #Florida Step Back from #ALPRs
Within the last few days, two important state actions have dealt a big blow to automated license plate reader (#ALPR ) networks. This is just the latest proof of the growing tide of public opposition to mass #surveillance. After years of successful grassroots battles to pull these cameras from local streets, #bipartisan momentum is sweeping the country.
On August 28, Texas Governor #GregAbbott banned state agencies from spending public funds on #Flock #cameras. The order dropped just as The Texas Tribune prepared to publish an investigation revealing that a state agency had quietly funneled at least $30 million into building a sprawling surveillance network.

“In June 2026, the federal government introduced Bill C-34, the Safe Social Media Act, proposing new rules intended to protect young people online. We asked the OpenMedia community what they thought Canada should prioritize, which harms worried them, and what trade-offs they were willing to make.
From July to August, 2,520 Canadians responded to our Your Voice on Digital Safety survey. The results show that respondents are concerned about online safety and want Canada to address concrete online harms, while also expressing serious concerns about approaches that require people to provide more personal information.
Respondents represented a range of age groups and experiences. 66.48% were adults between 18 and 64, while 30.6% were 65 or older. Nearly half (48.45%) also had some connection to children through parenting, their work, or being a young person themselves.
Across those responses, a bigger picture emerged. People aren’t choosing between online safety and privacy. They’re asking why they should have to choose at all.”

“Norway is considering a ban on smart glasses and other camera-enabled wearable headsets as it seeks to regulate the controversial technology amid privacy concerns.
The country’s digital minister Karianne Tung, as quoted by the AFP news agency, said that the government is looking to regulate the use of camera-enabled wearables, such as those made by Meta and Snap. These wearables feature cameras, are internet-connected, and may soon include facial recognition, drawing ire from civil liberties advocates, who say the devices intrude on people’s privacy. Some call the devices “pervert glasses,” prompting considerable consumer backlash.”

The #AirMarshal agency presumes that requests for assistance from the #FBI, which are not unusual, are relevant to a legitimate investigation. But the bureau’s behavior here undermines that confidence….
The FBI’s decision to ask air marshals for help also puzzled some former law-enforcement officials, who asked why the FBI hadn’t put its own agents on the plane to conduct #surveillance, which would have been a routine matter.

…Despite the seriousness of the accusations against #EricSwalwell, many aspects of the FBI’s request to the Federal #AirMarshal Service were unusual, current & former officials said. For one thing, the #FBI does not usually investigate #SexualAssault. For another, asking air marshals to obtain a subject’s electronic passcodes is considered out of the ordinary even for traditional subjects of #surveillance.…
