If you think Texas is the only state/federal law enforcement jurisdiction contracting with these types of services, I have terrible new for you…


Even all surveillance being equal, Texas has demonstrated it uses its powers in vastly more nefarious ways against marginalized groups, notably women and Latinos and that's just in these past few months.


I'm intrigued. Can you give me some examples of how this is being used against those groups disproportionately?



Sounds like investigating actual crimes. Unless you know for a fact that only Latinos are investigated for these crimes, or they are disproportionately investigated (out of all the people committing such fraud in that jurisdiction), you're looking at it all wrong. But thanks for trying.
