here weighing in as list admin for WSMDiscuss, one of the lists where Pallav
Das posted the article that we’re discussing here. I have my own thoughts and comments on the article,
but here, I would just like to come in and request – as list admin - both ‘sides’
in the sharp exchange here to try and step back a bit, take a deep breath, and consider
the enormous significance of the subject being discussed; and in this light –
and heat -, try and modify language and position in ways that allow critical discussion
to continue (including by staying in the space and conversation).<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"> Two
things : One, and just for the record, Hari even anticipated this in his
original post, as follows :<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:#0070c0">Please entertain these
questions/challenges from someone who neither pretends to be an activist nor an
expert on the topic. Hopefully the discussion won't get 'acrimonious'!<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">Please, let’s all try to take this into
account !<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"> And
two, let’s also try and keep in mind that lists are - all said and done – not real
world and time spaces, and so we all need to try to accordingly speak. There’s something ‘final’ about the written

I'm copying it here for the larger readership. A couple of other previous responses are also copied further below. We look forward to a healthy discussion.</div><div><br></div><div><p>From<b> Ken Montenegro, Melanie Bush, Alfredo Lopez and Hamid Khan:</b></p><p dir="auto">In discussions about weaponized surveillance, people will sometimes raise questions such as:</p>
<ol dir="auto">
<li>Would you support the abolition of spying software if it meant increasing terror attacks because there is no monitor?</li>
<li>Why can’t we just regulate these weapons given that “vigilance is the price of liberty”? Isn’t surveillance a small price to pay for safety?</li>
<li>Isn’t it impossible to undo the spying built-into modern technology?</li>
<li>What do we have to hide?</li>
</ol><p dir="auto">We support an abolitionist approach precisely because spying software has not prevented terror attacks. Moreover, the focus of avoiding imaginary terror attacks avoids responsibility for the settler colonialist origins of what the Stop LAPD Spying Coalition called the “stalker state.” The relationship between anti-Blackness and the national security police state is made evident here: <a rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener noreferrer" href="https://stoplapdspying.medium.com/anti-blackness-and-the-national-security-police-state-that-civil-liberties-advocacy-built-f8d1d5418c42" target="_blank">https://stoplapdspying.medium.com/anti-blackness-and-the-national-security-police-state-that-civil-liberties-advocacy-built-f8d1d5418c42</a>) If we take an historical perspective and aspire to undo the harm these tools cause, then abolition is the only reasonable conclusion.</p><p dir="auto">Abolition is the only reasonable conclusion precisely because attempts at reform or regulation end up as spectacular failures. In what is currently called the United States, brave folks have always fought to reign in police and state violence. Those efforts have largely failed because they preserve institutions and practices that are racist and violent to their core and from their very foundation. Folks who uphold specious arguments like, “you have nothing to hide” or “vigilance is the price of liberty” fail to acknowledge how Indigenous and Black folks in the United States have always borne the brunt of state surveillance and its ensuing violence. It is part and parcel of the very system itself as a means of control and management. Abolition removes the “price” from “liberty”; it makes it free.</p><p dir="auto">We are committed to a long-term struggle toward that freedom. While it might seem that a world without rampant digital surveillance is impossible, we are dedicated to visions of change where technology is about improving life and not controlling others. We know there is a possible alternative because rampant corporate & governance surveillance is new. Twenty years ago, such a dystopia was unimaginable.</p><p dir="auto">Finally, we don’t see questions like the ones above being rooted in affirming life. Often these questions above are used facetiously to discredit or seem “right” about the issue of surveillance and to defend an indefensible system of colonial, capitalist, white supremacist, and patriarchy. May First Movement Technology is committed to learning and collaboration in our journeys towards the abolition of state violence of all sorts, and welcome dialogue that moves us in that direction.</p><p dir="auto"><br></p><p dir="auto">----------------------------------------------------------------------------</p></div><div><br></div><div><div>I think you might find some answers to your questions in this article, Hari -<br></div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/04/surveillance-state-september-11-panic-made-us-vulnerable" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/sep/04/surveillance-state-september-11-panic-made-us-vulnerable</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>It gives a very detailed account of how biased, excessive and either damaging or ineffective the state and corporate spying in the USA has been post 9/11. Also phenomenally expensive.<br></div><div><br></div><div>More information on how the spying potential of IT is abused by states is available from the University of Toronto's Citizen Lab (<a href="https://citizenlab.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://citizenlab.ca/</a>). Last year it exposed the hacking of journalists' phones by an Israeli spy agency. This has literally put lives in danger, and may have contributed to the murder of the journalist Jamal Kashoggi in the Saudi Arabian consulate in Istanbul in 2018.<br></div><div><br></div><div>One of the few clever and positive uses of technology to keep people safe recently is the international anti-drug smuggling initiative reported on here - <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/sep/11/inside-story-most-daring-surveillance-sting-in-history" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/sep/11/inside-story-most-daring-surveillance-sting-in-history</a> In this instance, however, only those people who were known bad actors or in close contact with bad actors were targetted for surveillance - and this is how any legitimate surveillance operation should work.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Sadly, it is far more common for 'good actors' - like those protesting racism, or reporting on state misdemeanours, for example - to be targetted and harassed, which is just a giant form of state 'phishing' - completely illegitimate and it should stop immediately.</div><div><br></div><div>But as I don't see any chance that the military-industrial complex (now including Big Tech) is about to stop working for and with the Market-State any where any time soon, and as demands for ethical behaviour don't cut any ice on this issue as with climate change and so many others, I think the only realistic position for good actors, be they activists or journalists, is to assume that their digital communication devices can and will be hacked at any time, and to take every precaution accordingly. Including not using a 'smart' phone at all, as in the preference of one investigative journalist I know.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Hope this helps!</div><div><br></div><div>Christine</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Sep 18, 2021 at 2:52 PM Pallav Das <<a href="mailto:dpallav@gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">dpallav@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><b><br></b></div><div><span style="color:rgb(68,68,68);font-size:16px"><b><font face="arial, sans-serif">"Among the most glaring omissions in our arsenal as a movement is the absence of a simple statement: we oppose government and corporate surveillance of all kinds, we will never support it, and we will not work with anyone who does.
