Protesters Urge Amazon To End Surveillance Partnerships
On Friday in Seattle, 200 to 250 people protested outside Amazon headquarters to demand the company end hosting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on Amazon Web Services and terminate its Palantir partnership. The demonstration followed Ring's announcement the prior day that it would end its Flock Safety tie, a response to backlash over a Super Bowl ad. Organizers warned they will continue pressure until Amazon severs surveillance contracts.
