Stop the Oakland Joint Domain Awareness Center!
Comrades:
To those who think a city government Total Information Awareness system over all Oakland city residents and visitors is inappropriate, we have three requests:
(1) email or call your city councilmember today to ask them to vote no on the JDAC, or at least vote to delay it pending further study;
(2) show up Tuesday 7/30/13 5:30 pm to the City Council meeting to express your views and sign up to speak on Item 35 or the JDAC; and
(3) join us for our next organizing meeting to stop the Oakland JDAC, details to be posted on the Occupy Oakland calendar.
The Domain Awareness Center was designed for Oakland Port security but is now proposed for the whole city, hence Joint Domain Awareness Center. Here is background information and an ACLU of Northern California response: http://oaklandwiki.org/Domain_Awareness_Center
