Potential Email format for Nick Dugan, regarding the use of AI/ALPR/Potential Surveillance cameras
Hello everyone, I have gotten a few private messages regarding an email format to send to him. My apologies I couldn't do this sooner, but here is something I came up with recently.
REMEMBER DESPITE THE UC POLICY, THE INFORMATION STILL GET SHARED according to https://www.mercedsunstar.com/news/local/education/uc-merced/article315497840.html
"Hello Nick Dugan,
I am [YOUR NAME], and I am sending this email as an concerned student of the UC, regarding the use of AI, and the ALPR cameras that were installed recently. I fear these cameras may harm the privacy and the well welcoming community the school is building. Another concern I wish to vocalize is the harm it not only doing to the school by assisting an surveillance state(in regard due to it growing talk of violating the fourth amendment), but to the harm it does to our fellow undocumented students due to the cameras known direct support of ice(by sending data collected to several federal and out-of-state agencies, including the Border Patrol) and by directly funding them. May you justify why these risks are taking with such reckless care, in sentences, rather than redirection to an policy/rules form please.
-[Your Name]
If you like to look more into issue, I highly recommend Louis Rossmann youtube channel regarding AI/ALPR cameras.
As well as these sources I used in my email to Nick Dugan, which will be found below. I am going to start going to document cameras around the town using https://deflock.org/ . I recommend you do the same, and use it as main GPS. As well as filling out the form located here https://policies.ucmerced.edu/policies-under-review
