Seattle! The City Council is voting TOMORROW on the surveillance pricing bill, and there are a whole bunch of amendments that would add loopholes, weaken enforcement, and carve the use of in surveillance technologies for stuff like "fraud prevention" (i.e. targeting immigrants and people receiving government benefits).
So please contact the city council and tell them to pass the ordiance -- and reject all the amendments.

Another update on the Seattle surveillance pricing ban: WA AI Resistance and Washington People's Privacy have an Action Network campaign up too, focusing on one especially problematic amendment. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/seattle-reject-the-dangerous-loss-prevention-amendment-and-pass-a-clean-fair-transparent-pricing-ordinance #seattle #surveillance #surveillancePricing
