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

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

    Your rental is watching you. Here's how to lock them out.

  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. CW: AI generated episode cover. My podcast isn't AI though. If it was I'd make it get rid of the breaths and fumbled words that are sometimes in there.

    Your water sensor knows when you shower. Your thermostat knows when you sleep. Your smart lock knows who visits.

    And your landlord owns all that data.

    Episode 25: How to lock them out.

  12. 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

  13. Buried in Paragraph 14 of your lease:

    "Tenant agrees to the installation of smart building technologies for safety and efficiency."

    That's it. That's the consent. You didn't negotiate it. You didn't opt out. You took the lease or you took the street.

    And the data flows to brokers, insurers, and police, often without a warrant.

    Ep.25 of Impractical Privacy talks the "Smart Building" trap.

    🎧@ impracticalprivacy.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

  14. 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.

  15. Chiara Padovani gave a speech at our NDP EDA's AGM today. She is fabulous.

    She's a tenant activist who will be running for Toronto City Council for York South-Weston. She has run twice before, coming very close last time (2022) to beating the incumbent Frances Nunziata.

    Next Toronto City Council election will be in October of this year. I'm certainly going to be canvassing for her!

  16. Ontario renters/tenants: if your landlord hits you with an “above-guideline increase” (AGI), remember -- you can fight it.
    AGIs aren’t automatic. They can be challenged, collectively or at the LTB.

  17. Residents of a South Shore apartment faced “unlivable” conditions before a recent immigration raid, highlighting ongoing neglect. Broken elevators and poor maintenance raise legal questions about tenant rights and safety. How can we push for better housing standards in Chicago? #ChicagoHousing #TenantRights

  18. 🕵️‍♂️🔍 Oh no, someone forgot to return the security deposit and now we get an entire novel about a forged PDF. Because nothing screams thrilling investigative journalism like tenant protection law and bureaucratic paperwork! 📄🤦‍♂️

  19. CW: UKpol, housing

    Well, OF COURSE the Labour homelessness minister evicted her tenants so she could raise the rents. The only surprise is that she has enough of a sense of shame to resign.

    Ban MPs from being landlords.

  20. Why Are So Many Americans Homeless? 🏚️🇺🇸

    In this clip from my Sharpe Way Show LIVE on YouTube, I react to an interview from Breaking Points where journalist Brian Goldstone blames credit scores, private equity, and a lack of tenant rights for America's homelessness crisis. 📉 But is he right? I break down why these claims miss the real issue.

  21. Formerly, when housing stock was in the control of the local authority, you could make FoI requests for important documents regarding your home. However, that right didn't follow when our homes were transferred to RSLs. Please consider signing and sharing this petition to restore that right. petition.parliament.uk/petitio

  22. Why Landlords Aren't Victims
    This could speak to any place across the US, not just NYC. Defining the degree of socio-economic justice someone deserves based on property ownership is an immoral proposition in conflict with the aspirational values expressed in the preamble of the US Constitution.

  23. Hoping the Fediverse can help me with some #legal research. I am currently writing a paper on #evictions, and am in the process of explaining how difficult the legal process is for #tenants without access to legal representation. I would like to cite specific figures about what percentage of #eviction judgments are successfully appealed and reversed nationwide, but I am unable to find any sources (No luck from #EvictionLab or Matthew Desmond's other projects on this). Do any legal wizards happen to know where I could find this information? Thank you! #Law #LandlordTenant #lawfedi #tenantrights @law

  29. If you’re renting privately, your landlord is responsible for most major repairs to your home like pipes, heating and gas safety.
