The US deportation thugs are tracking the movements of 200,000 immigrants. Even worse, it is privatized. Activists are suing to find out what data they store.

Tracking people's movements is much less than keeping them in prison, but is this change being used as an opportunity to "jail" more people?

The UK National Union of Students is under fire for for antisemitism.

Distinguishing between antisemitism and criticism of Israel's policy requires care. I take care because I condemn antisemitism and I oppose the occupation of Palestine.

The article presents an old example from an NUS leader which is real antisemitism. However, the NUS has adopted the IHRC's classificatory scheme for antisemitism

as a criterion for judgment. That draws the line at the wrong place, and thus systematically opens the door to repressing criticism of the occupation of Palestine. Past examples suggest that some organizations, perhaps including the British government, will try to make the NUS expel all those who criticize it.

Truck drivers protested again, this time against Greg Abbott's policy of searching all trucks entering Texas from Mexico, and made him cancel it.

The search was for smuggling, of goods or people. In principle, there is nothing wrong with checking for that, but the cost was disastrous.

An idea occurs to me. Every truck that crosses the border could be required to carry inside cameras and lamps that could be used at the border to inspect the inside of the cargo compartment quickly.

Since there are supposed to be people inside, this system would surveil any people unjustly.
