"I mean they don't hide much anymore."

heh as a foia nerd, heh.

All of that may be true but I think that it's moot.

The overall goal with these kinds of projects should be to maintain parity between the citizenry and people in positions of power.

Even if it's little stuff like a person calling out "Hey how come he doesn't have to wait in line?" when small town city councillor gets special treatment at a local restaurant. We want to close the gap between the every-man and people with power wherever we see it.

In the bigger picture as it pertains to this kind of sousveillance introducing as much friction in these kinds of things as possible causes the people you're opposing to need to exert more force to do what they're doing and it distracts them and throws them off guard. It's a death by a thousand cuts sort of thing.

Take the opposition to datacentres and the protests and resistance to it, if the protesters really wanted to gum up the works they'd target the finite number of anonymous professionals who are involved in the approval and development process for these megaprojects. There are a lot of paper-pushing accountants, lawyers, and civil engineers who just want to cash a fat cheque and make it to retirement who will back the fuck out the second they hear about people publishing the full org-chart and comings and goings of the professionals involved in these projects.

>Our current admin is simply awash in corruption

Every administration since JFK has been awash in corruption. No exceptions. America hasn't had an America-first President since JFK. The people who obsess over Trump need to read 1984 again and pay particular attention to Emmanuel Goldstein.

Our awful government includes most of Congress, 93% of which take pro-Israel bribes. If you want to find the problem, look East at our mortal enemy that brands itself as our greatest ally in their hasbara.

Just wait until the hearings start

great, so now what? who are you giving access to that data that will mean anything? the cops aren't going to do anything with it as it does not pertain to anything within the purview. the only thing I could think that would be done with that information is not good with people showing up to their house or some such.

Right there's another gotcha with the data. They gave 15-60mph data in :30 minute increments.

"This would still identify officers blocks or get within a couple blocks of their home for those with take home cars. Would speeds of 15 miles per hour or more but only pings on the :30 minute mark, so one ping per hour from 2019 until the end of April work for you?"

Even gave them this SQL to run to get around that problem but they never got back to me, heh:

  WITH immobile_pings as (
  select count(*), vehicleid, round(xcoord::numeric, 3) as xcoord_rounded,
    round(ycoord::numeric,3) as ycoord_rounded,date_trunc('day', datetime) as day
  FROM gps_table
  WHERE speed = 0
  GROUP BY
    vehicleid,
    xcoord_rounded,
    ycoord_rounded,
    day
    having count(*) > 1440), --4 hours
  day_counts as (
    select count(*), vehicleid, xcoord_rounded, ycoord_rounded
    from immobile_pings
    group by vehicleid, xcoord_rounded, ycoord_rounded having count(*) > 15 -- 15 days
  )

>other purposes.

Just say "Stalking their ex partners" its fine we all know about it in 2026.
