“Every few years, they make these amazing claims about the technology,” EFF’s @maassive@comicscamp.club told @newyorktimes@flipboard.com for a story based on EFF’s border surveillance technology data. “And then an oversight body looks at it and finds it’s a big, wasteful program that is not delivering results.” https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/10/22/us/politics/ai-surveillance-cameras-border-mexico.html

The @newyorktimes@flipboard.com used EFF's ongoing map of surveillance at the US-Mexico border to reveal how this technology invades the privacy of millions of everyday Americans. This is exactly the use case we have in mind when we investigate tech and release our research under a Creative Commons license. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/03/cbp-expanding-its-surveillance-tower-program-us-mexico-border-and-were-mapping-it
