He promised "government by app" and the ability to interact with public services through a mobile phone as easily as shopping with Amazon, communicating via WhatsApp, or streaming on Netflix. "In the future, you'll be able to get all your government admin done in the time it takes to make a cup of tea," said Jones, in a video posted on social media.
Asked by investors about his biggest worries, CEO Rick Smith said: A misstep around privacy and data handling. Without elaborating on specific examples, he said: We are seeing that those are concerns right now out in the public. I think that would be one where we could make a mistake that would have outsized negative consequences.
Police on Tuesday released surveillance images as they look for four people linked to a violent attack inside a downtown Flushing business that left a 21-year-old man injured.

When I opened the door. I stepped in, I was inside for two seconds. I looked down. I heard an argument happening. I heard: p***y, p***y, p***y, and then the shooting. I just turned a run and all the other people came after me, said the eyewitness, who asked to remain anonymous. Police from the Midtown South Precinct and EMS rushed to the scene, where they pronounced Jackson dead.
I assume that it's intended to provide ammunition to go after disfavored faculty and/or to instill such a chill on campus that nobody would dare to say anything provocative in the first place.

County leaders approved a contract with Flock in June 2023 to cover unincorporated parts of the county with over 100 license plate readers. Last April, the board agreed to pay for Flock's pan-tilt-zoom cameras, which allow the sheriff's department to conduct surveillance on pedestrians, vehicles, and more. In July, the board signed a $600,000 year-long deal with Flock for the AeroDome system, which stations drones at sheriff's facilities where they can be deployed on a minute's notice.
Well, I see a lot of things. There seems to be at some point, you know, familiarity with the area. If you notice when he walks up, he has his head down.

"Don't play Russian roulette with [this man's] life," Jon told lead DHS prosecutor, Joseph Dernbach, in the email. "Err on the side of caution. There's a reason the US government along with many other governments don't recognise the Taliban. Apply principles of common sense and decency." Five hours later, per WaPo, Jon received a response - not from Dernbach or the DHS, but from Google.
The National Portrait Gallery is Jared Soares's favorite museum. It's just a few Metro stops away from the photographer's home in Northeast DC, and he says he's visited dozens of times to admire the works from his favorite artists. But Soares's next visit will be different. The second floor of the gallery now features Soares's award-winning photograph, Misidentified by Artificial Intelligence: Alonzo and Carronne (2023).
