    “IBM firmly opposes and will not condone uses of any facial recognition technology, including facial recognition technology offered by other vendors, for mass surveillance, racial profiling, violations of basic human rights and freedoms, or any purpose which is not consistent with our values and Principles of Trust and Transparency,” Krishna said in the letter.

    IBM will no longer offer general purpose facial recognition or analysis software, IBM CEO Arvind Krishna said in a letter to Congress today.

    Point here is that if you outsource something to corpration- do not complain that it'll breach the contract or ban youm even if you are police.

    Well corporations started as para-state... Dutch East Indies Co. anyone?

    They already chop the hands of lazy workers, and have private armies, now they just need to have dominion over land.

    Back to basics.

    Alphabet

    In an attempt to “amplify” Black voices and perspectives, YouTube is creating a $100 million, multi-year fund dedicated to Black creators, artists and their stories.

    This is called racism, btw. As if we replace here Black to White it'll be last press release of all Youtube staff.

    And instant Apple response

    Apple is launching a $100 million initiative to promote racial equality for people of color with a focus on “education, economic equality, and criminal justice reform.”

    To promote justice and equality all Apple top management better go and hang on nearest trees. Will ne very good promotion.
