We speak with Minneapolis resident Aliya Rahman, who attended Tuesday’s State of the Union address as a guest of Congressmember Ilhan Omar. Rahman was removed from the chamber Tuesday and spent several hours in jail following what she describes as an aggressive arrest by Capitol Police — all for silently challenging Trump during the speech. “There are only two things you can do at the State of the Union, and they are sit down and stand up,” says Rahman. “I was arrested for standing up.” Rahman, a U.S. citizen, was violently dragged out of her car and detained by federal immigration officers last month and later released without charge.

It should be impossible for the ITU to deny that internet shutdowns in Iran demonstrate fundamental flaws with digital sovereignty rhetoric for human rights in both policy and global internet governance https://www.techpolicy.press/irans-case-should-put-an-end-to-illusions-about-digital-sovereignty/

Iran’s Case Should Put an End to Illusions About Digital Sovereignty

Iran’s case shows why digital sovereignty won’t solve internet shutdowns or unchecked private dominance over digital infrastructure, writes Azadeh Akbari.

ICE is a slave patrol powered by tech. Violence is all that is on the 24 hour news cycle and yet just weeks ago WIRED ran a feature that humanised Palantir’s Alex Karp.

We recently spoke to Brazilian environmental activist Angela Mendes, the daughter of Amazonian forest defender and labor leader Chico Mendes, who was assassinated by ranchers in December 1988. She discussed her father’s legacy and her ongoing work to protect the Amazon rainforest from encroachment by ranching and mining industries. “They come here, build their companies, bringing death to the territories, bringing death for the forests and threatening the peoples of the forest,” Mendes said, speaking to Democracy Now! at the COP30 U.N. climate summit in Belém.
