First the police, now Big Tech wants to put 'crime-predicting' tech in UK probation services.

A lack of transparency and reliance on flawed data means that institutional racism will be hardwired into the justice system.

All at the expense of dignity and rights.

Tech that claims to 'predict' crime is only as 'objective' as the data it's fed.

With crime data reflecting historic racist and discriminatory practices, we must act now to prevent injustice for over policed communities.

Sign the petition to BAN it (UK) ⬇️
