Forwarded from 🇵🇸 Automated Apartheid in Palestine
🇵🇸A recent study by the “Campaign” Center reports that #Microsoft is involved in storing phone call data of Palestinians under unlawful #surveillance by the Israeli occupation, with data reportedly hosted in data centers in the #Netherlands and #Ireland.
The study, authored by researcher Sarah Fattah, argues that Israeli intelligence systems have transformed Palestinian voice data into a continuous input for artificial (#AI) intelligence #algorithms, converting speech into unique #biometric identifiers similar to #fingerprints and #FacialRecognition.
It confirms that this enables rapid identification of individuals and links their identities to security and geographic databases, raising accusations of direct technological complicity in systems of control.

🇵🇸 Return to Al-Wihda Tower | The Electronic Intifada
Before the #genocide, Al-Wihda Tower was one of the tallest residential buildings in the area. Our apartment on the western side had a view of the coastline.
Upon our return, the tower was barely recognizable.
Parts of its exterior had been torn away by Israeli airstrikes, leaving exposed concrete, shattered windows and blackened walls. Rubble still surrounded the entrance.
We had finally reached our home, marking the seeming end of our yearslong displacement, yet, as it turned out, the hardships would only continue.
