Axon's #Ethics Board Resigned Over Taser-Armed #Drones. Then the Company Bought a #Military #Drone Maker

The CEO’s vision for Taser-equipped drones includes a fictitious scenario in which the technology averts a shooting at a day care center.

Pericoloso l'uso del dissuasore elettrico taser. Come funziona il taser, la pistola che spara le scariche elettriche? La polizia americana lo usa da un po', da qualche anno è in dotazione anche alla polizia italiana: il taser, il dissuasore elettrico usato per rendere inoffensivi gli individui pericolosi. Come funziona?

Whether it's the #Axon #CEO gleefully touting his products as unalloyed good, or the training session with #BaltimoreCity #police showing us a few of the people who have the nearly unrestricted right to kill any one of us, nothing in this #documentary gives any indication that the maker or users of these products have any interest at all in the well-being of the people these weapons and tools are purportively meant to ultimately make and keep safe: the citizens.

#AllLightEverywhere is a #documentary on #Hulu released in #2021 but apparently mostly shot #2017 through #2019 that attempts to cover the ever-timely topic of #surveillance in the #US, particularly by the #police on #Black communities.

It's a patchwork of concepts and ideas that does best when it's focused on #Axon, the company that makes most of the #BodyCameras and #tasers used by police departments in the U.S.

That's chilling. Especially that their cameras deliberately distort perspective.

Putting out a request again for any #Tripwire SME who would be willing to chat.
I know how Tripwire works. I understand Nodes, Rules, and Tasks. I think I understand Policies and Actions.
The building blocks are all there to build a robust #FIM and #Compliance monitoring and reporting process.
But you have to build it from scratch and there is scant documentation on the best way to start.
I'd love to talk to someone who has already built one up to make sure I don't spend time going down the wrong road.

The only components we are using are #TripwireEnterprise and #Axon agents.

Wanyue Xu et al. present a new approach for studying #axon #pruning using the #Drosophila motor #neuron:

https://journals.biologists.com/bio/article/12/1/bio059535/286282/Establishment-of-a-novel-axon-pruning-model-of

“Not all neurons that undergo pruning at an early stage are easy to observe and genetically screen”

Check out this interview with Wanyue to find out more about the story behind the paper:

#Neural circuits require coordinated #axon pathfinding through #ECM. Learn how #Netrin, a guidance cue for #neuronal pathfinding can trigger repulsion or attraction of an axon in #arthropods! https://doi.org/10.1002/dvdy.459

I also volunteer to tase the directors and executives of #Axon.

Seriously, ban these freakin' things. #SecondAmendment doesn't apply to thumbscrews, the rack, or the #taser. Could probably get #NRA support for a ban.
