404media has some deep blind slots in regard to racism and it's relationship to surveillance. They don't seem to fully understand that surveillance isn't just about coercing people to follow laws, but that as identities are criminalized more and more, it is about making people feel uncomfortable supporting and standing up for the people in targetted groups. I feel like this comes from having a predominantly cis//white perspective that forms the understanding of this issue. Just my opinion.
