    The anti ALPR narrative is not based in reality. I for one support using tech to automatically flag when a stolen car is spotted. With the sky high cost of car insurance in CA, which disproportionately impacts low income drivers, you would think liberal legislators would be in favor of reducing one of the largest reasons insurance is expensive. Restricting tech used by police just means more LE time spent on easily automatable tasks, and forces LE to use their own judgement (which many would argue has bias). The ACLU and EFF are so discredited on tech issues. They simply support criminals. The ACLU is fighting DUI laws in CA right now for instance. SF is a hell-hole because of these crime loving activist groups.

    Thank you, Flock!

    if you are exceptional, there is always the O-1 visa

    This is such a stupid exemption. Most small businesses are not Delaware C corps, so they don't even qualify. Total handout to SV.

    >Never expected to see the EFF siding with a big tech company, and fighting for its right to profit from its users.

    The EFF routinely sides with big tech companies. See their work on copyrights, patents, etc. Tech figures fund them. See https://thebaffler.com/salvos/all-effd-up-levine

    How common is it for companies to skip over a minimally qualified US worker during the PERM labor market test process?

    If a minimally qualified US worker is found, are they under a requirement to hire the worker or can they just reapply for PERM later and conduct another labor market test?

    The sanctions the court is talking about are monetary sanctions against the lawyers/defendants, not sanctions, as in the Treasury Department style of sanctions. Two different things.

    Palantir had no role. It's disgusting they try to tie themselves to it.

    >Unfortunately they also frequently get non-profits to be their mouth pieces

    Important to note that the EFF is also a nonprofit, which is funded by big tech.

    DOE? The Department of Energy?

    The way Palantir talks about the CIA really rubs me the wrong way. For years, they would leak to journalists that Palantir "found bin Laden" when, of course, it had nothing to do with finding him. Several CIA employees died trying to find Bin Laden, all for some schmucks in Silicon Valley to try and capitalize on their sacrifice.

    I'm sorry, but what nation-state or billionaire is fighting against the EFF? In fact, the EFF is funded by billionaires and nation-states.

    I wholeheartedly agree.

    The website was created by fightforthefuture.org, an astroturf advocacy organization. Their tax filings show their backers are largely venture capital firms and tech companies.

    It's no surprise that big tech companies don't want increased liability.

    > people who write them $100,000 checks

    Which law enforcement agency is writing $100k checks? There are no commercial interests in Section 702. In fact, if any, they would be against 702 (as Verizon doesn't like having to deal with it).

    FSP required?

    >They profit hundreds of millions and get a $400,000 fine for breaking the law. This is not an accident.

    Can you give an example of this?

    Imagine thinking stopping the horrors of child sexual abuse makes you an evil person. Perhaps you are projecting.
