DESCRIPTION:Join the Oakland Privacy Working Group to organize against the surveillance 
 state,  against Urban Shield, and to advocate for privacy and 
 surveillance regulation ordinances to be passed around the Bay Area, 
 including the Alameda and San Francisco County Boards of Supervisors, the 
 BART Board of Directors, and by the Oakland and Berkeley City 
 Councils.\n\nWe are also engaged in the fight against Predictive Policing 
 and other “pre-crime” and “thought-crime” abominations, drones, 
 improper use of police body cameras, ALPRs, requirements for 
 “backdoors” to your cellphone and against other invasions of privacy by 
 our benighted City, County, State and Federal Governments.\n\nOPWG 
 originally came together to fight against the Domain Awareness Center 
 (DAC), Oakland’s citywide networked mass surveillance hub. OPWG was 
 instrumental in stopping the DAC from becoming a city-wide spying network; 
 its members helped draft the Privacy Policy that puts further restrictions 
 on the now Port-restricted DAC, and made Oakland’s new Privacy Advisory 
 Commission to the City Council happen.  We were also the lead in having 
 Alameda County pass the most comprehensive privacy and usage policy in the 
 country for deployment of “Stingray” technology (cell phone 
 interceptors).  In conjunction with other groups we fight against Urban 
 Shield and other killer-cop trainings.\n\nWe have presented our work at 
 RightsCon in San Francisco and at Left Forum and HOPE in New York 
 City.\n\nIf you would like to attend our meeting and would like a quick 
 introduction to what we’re doing before we dive right into the thick of 
 our agenda, send email to contact@oaklandprivacy.org and one of us will 
 show up twenty minutes early to give you some background on our 
 work.\n\nStop by and learn how you can help guard our right not to be spied 
 on by the government. Look on the whiteboard inside near the entrance to 
 the OMNI for our exact location within the OMNI.\n\nIf you are interested
