USA #NYC #NYPD #Drones #Surveillance #Privacy #LaborDay: "In a statement to the Guardian, Daniel Schwarz, the senior privacy and technology strategist at the New York Civil Liberties Union, said: “Deploying surveillance drones over New Yorkers gathering with their friends and families to celebrate J’ouvert is racialized discrimination and it doesn’t make us safer.”

Schwarz also accused police of “playing fast and loose” with New Yorkers’ constitutional rights to due process and to freely hold peaceful gatherings. He added that the drone ploy was also antithetical to the 2021 Public Oversight of Surveillance Technology Act, which requires New York police to publish impact and use policies on its surveillance technologies.

“As the NYPD keeps deploying these dystopian technologies, we must push for stricter guardrails – especially given the department’s lengthy history of surveilling and policing Black and brown communities,” he continued.

Albert Fox Cahn, the executive director of the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project, called the decision a “terrible plan that should never have gotten off the ground”.

“We see that there’s a real pattern with the NYPD and with Eric Adams (the New York City mayor) – whenever there’s a risk of bad headlines, they’ll turn to the next technology gimmick,” Cahn told the Guardian."

The concept of not wearing white after Labor Day started in the 19th century as a way for the upper class to separate themselves from the working class. Some historians say brighter clothing was worn by affluent groups who could afford to leave town for a warmer coast when the leaves began to change. Subsequently, it became socially accepted that those who didn't have the money to take fall and winter vacations shouldn't don white after the last summer holiday.

Monday is Labor Day (in the US)! What does that mean for you?

It means chill the fuck out. This is the day where we thank the luckless drones who built this nation and not the vampiric leeches like Bezos and Musk who profit from their labor without contributing anything.

If we didn't celebrate #LaborDay, we would observe the other ancient American tradition: profiting from the exploitation of laborers without compensation or recognition.

It's #LaborDay weekend! I'll be gorging at the Minnesota State Fair, but we have a great show today, featuring Michael Brodkorb and Dr. Joe Eastman! 3 PM on AM950Radio.

A #LaborDay #poetry opportunity

Stillness at the lake on #LaborDay Was so quiet and peaceful. Just one couple with their dog who was very enthused about chasing his toy into the water. That was the only joy I needed...
