Perspectives explored include how Ai data centers assist police and military with surveillance networking to help organizations like ICE track and kidnap people. The imperial boomerang of this technology is seen originally in use during military operations around the world and recently seen deployed in the USA on the civilian population. A method of understanding the intentional uses of the tech while holding the police accountable is through Right to know Requests / Act 22 requests that anyone can file themselves to demand state information. _____________________________ 0:00:33 - Introduction 0:01:07 - Right to Know Requests - "right to know" request is a formal request to access public records from a government agency.

It differs from a traditional data center by using specialized hardware like GPUs and TPUs, high-speed networking, and advanced cooling systems to manage the massive data processing and high energy demands of AI workloads. 0:52:48 - Imperial Boomerang - "imperial boomerang" refers to imperial powers using colonies as laboratories to develop and perfect methods of social control and repression, which are then brought back and used domestically against their own citizens. Decolonize your mind. 1:03:31 - Stop Cop City - "Cop City" is the nickname for a police training center.
