Coming to #prisons in E&W soon ...
Given the #TechnoUtopianism of our current Minister and the (Oracle/Blair Institute) related #AIPusherMen that are this Government's #SpAds, this #panoptic (and almost certainly #racist) dystopia seems inevitable.

I wonder which (Blair Institute/Ellison connected) SpAd came up with this particular piece of #TechnoUtopianism?
Timpson's willingness to impose predatory tech surveillance systems on a #prison population who cannot give #DataConsent is disturbing!

How Musk’s techno-utopianism evolved from 20th-century Europe #Technology #Other #Musk #TechnoUtopianism #Innovation
I think it's part:
1. #TechnoUtopianism - idea that new tech will solve extant problems cheaply
2. Ignorance of the rapacious nature of #SurveillanceCapitalism, the #CodedBias within, and the problems/harms forthcoming
3. Outdated neoliberalism and its desire to both outsource yet maintain control
What happens when your #TechBarons don't have #Ethics??
The #TechnoUtopianism you hope will solve your #CriminalJustice crises instead leans heavily towards a #TechnoDystopia

For those with an interest in #DigitalCriminology, #SurveillanceCapitalism, and #policing.
One element of the #TechnoUtopianism that is besieging #CriminalJustice at present is a lack of thought about #HumanRights and #Ethics
Given the problems listed above anything other than superficial conclusions (i.e. male, aged 16-55, white, Christian, heterosexual, financial precarity, misogynistic ideations, impulsivity, etc.) will have little to no use for #policing
