Apple & Google remove, at the request of the Russian govt, Navalny's Smart Voting app. This interfered with a number of human rights.We should be asking Apple & Google about their commitments to human rights.

[VISUAL] The Overlapping Infrastructure of Urban Surveillance, and How to Fix It
[VISUAL] The Overlapping Infrastructure of Urban Surveillance, and How to Fix It
If you could take a cross-section of the average city block, you would see the ways that the built environment of surveillance—its physical presence in, over, and under our cities—makes the various types of surveillance an entwined problem that must be combatted through entwined solutions. We decided to create a graphic to show how—from overhead to underground—these technologies and legal authorities overlap, how they disproportionately impact the lives of marginalized communities, and the tools we have at our disposal to halt or mitigate their harms.

UXers should be the most comfortable talking about privilege, racism, homophobia, white supremacy, xenophobia, etc. because being human-centered demands moments of grief & discomfort. Failure to do so reinforces a shallow point of view on the human experience & encourages apathy.— Vivianne Castillo (@vcastillo630) June 23, 2019
