*PREVIEW* Schrödinger's Pervert feat. Becca Wilks

TRASHFUTURE

For this week's TF bonus, we're speaking with Welsh journalist Becca Wilks about the Welsh government's usage of automatic facial recognition, the privacy nightmare it creates, and their frankly bonkers justifications for why they want to use it everywhere. Don't worry, it won't cause any.....actually we're just getting an update that it's already being used to stifle protests? The episode is available on Patreon here.
A note from Becca: "Myself and Devon are currently supporting Ahmed, a dad of four in Gaza, to raise money for the family’s living costs and eventual evacuation. We’re also trying to help Ahmed’s friend Rasha, who is a medical student in Egypt with her entire family trapped in Rafah. Both sets of families have been through absolutely harrowing ordeals, and every aspect of staying alive there at the moment is backbreaking work - fetching big containers of water over long distances in 35C heat, breaking up wood to try and get a fire going to cook, everything. Both families are raising money through GoFundMe."
