Darthmouth_Tracking_Workers

Dartmouth University developed a system to monitor workers in many different ways together. It can "assess worker performance" by tracking all sorts of behavior.

The New York City thug department continues racist practices despite the court order to cease them. Its internal "investigations" of reported racism are bogus.

Facebook's proposed currency is marketed as "decentralization" but actually it is an attempt to supplant banks with a system under complete centralized private control.
