Correction on one point: APD did claim an officer was shot. That officer was never identified nor the story corroborated.

There was a video circulating at the time of officers near the murder claiming it was friendly fire. And still, no gun powder found on victim's hands.

Also, I made an edit to reflect Tortuguita's correct pronouns (they/them).

@fromjason 1) tortugita used they/them pronouns 2) a cop definitely was shot, not sure where you got the idea that the cops didn't claim this. Whether it was friendly fire from the cops or self defense from an attempted kidnapping on the part of tortugita is unknown. I for one honor tortugita's memory, even if they didn't shoot that pig

https://blog.lauramichet.com/thoughts-about-interfaces-acting-like-people it's honestly not hard to imagine a world where people are legally forbidden from selling software or hardware that refers to itself in the first person or is referred to as a person by any supporting materials (eg marketing), and where the intent embodied in such software is always explicitly attributed to the human beings who produce it and set its policies. i don't think that would fix everything but it'd help. that's a moderate position IMO.

I feel like in the last couple media interviews I’ve done after stepping down as CEO I’ve done a much better job communicating the vision and importance of the fediverse than I’ve ever done before, which is ironic but maybe logical? Brain work better when less pressure?

And of fucking course @protonprivacy's politics are the centrist-y republican bullshit that plagues the tech community.

Goes to show: Whether they pretend to support Openness or Privacy, they're all just Republicans in All Birds. They don't believe in their website's marketing language.

The more I think about it the more disturbing @protonprivacy's justification for handing over credit card data becomes.

By their reasoning, anyone who speaks out against our government is default suspicious and associated with crimes that may or may not have even happened.

Encrypt whatever you want, but if this is Proton's politics, then their tools are completely unsafe for anyone who dare question the US government.

The Stop Cop City story is filled with bone-chilling state overreach.

APD and GBI tried (and failed) to charge an activist group with RICO. A SWAT team raided an activist's home, and arrested 3 on charges of money laundering.

https://theintercept.com/2023/05/31/cop-city-bail-fund-protest-raid-atlanta/

There's a recording of cops admitting to "going after their money." The activist group in question raises bail money for protesters. APD wanted to disrupt protesters' ability to legally defend themselves.

Also, notice how @protonprivacy claims a cop was "shot." Not even the cops' testimony claims this. APD claimed a cop was "injured." There was no bullet wound. But even that account is suspect since no gun powder was found on Terán's hands.

What we did find was 57 bullet wounds on Terán's body, and an autopsy report that showed Terán had his hands raised when APD opened fire on him. No body cam footage exists.

This was a cold blooded murder that APD tried to cover up.
