Pembroke Pines, FL quietly built a surveillance machine over 10 years. $1.3 million. 160+ cameras. Facial recognition. FBI database access. Audio capture. A nationwide plate database with 4 billion+ reads. The City Commission voted on it 13 times. Never once debated it. Every claim here is from public records. 🧵

Davie | Deflock Broward

What the public record shows about Davie's multi-vendor ALPR surveillance program — six years of procurement, nearly $700,000, two vendor ecosystems, and zero public votes.

A redesign before we even have followers? Bold strategy.

The site looks much better now. More importantly, it's easier to actually read what's going on with license plate surveillance in Broward: what's installed, what it collects, and what nobody officially wants to talk about.

Garbage came to #PompanoBeach on what they say is their final tour last night. They surprised me by ending the show with “Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)” (when everyone in the place was expecting “Stupid Girl”), playing it with light design done up in the trans flag colors. The opening set came from Starcrawler, who are like if the Donnas turned down the pop punk and turned up the proto-punk/early glam.
