Lawmakers Want To Automate Selective Service Registration for Military Draft

The new proposal would see all men aged 18-26 automatically registered for a potential military draft

House lawmakers are considering a plan to automate Selective Service registration for all men when they reach the age of 18, making the process of a national draft easier and eliminating potential consequences associated with manual filing of paperwork.

The new draft of the House Armed Services Committee’s annual defense authorization bill would mandate that all men between the ages of 18 and 26 should be automatically registered in the Selective Service system.

The Selective Service system hasn’t been used for over half a century, since the Vietnam War, but men who fail to register face various penalties, including forfeiture of eligibility for federal programs and even jail time.

In recent years, the number of men avoiding registration has increased, in part because registration options were removed from the federal student-loan process.

“By using available federal databases, the [Selective Service] agency will be able to register all of the individuals required and thus help ensure that any future military draft is fair and equitable,” said Democrat Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, in a Committee debate last week.

“This will also allow us to rededicate resources — basically that means money — towards reading readiness and towards mobilization … rather than towards education and advertising campaigns driven to register people.”

Although the proposal has been approved by the Committee, it must still pass through the House and Senate before it becomes law. It is expected to do so in the fall.

Police in US Cities Flouting Facial Recognition Bans by Asking Neighboring Forces To Do It For Them

Police forces are getting around local facial-recognition bans by subcontracting requests to other jurisdictions

Law enforcement officials in cities that have banned facial recognition are flouting their local bans by asking neighboring police forces to use the technology for them.

An investigation by The Washington Post found that police in San Francisco, where facial recognition has been banned since 2019, made repeated requests to other forces, including the Northern California Regional Intelligence Center and the Daly City Police Department. None of these requests led to an arrest.

Police in Austin, Texas, where facial-recognition technology is also banned, made at least 13 requests to a neighboring department for assistance with face-matching. Some of the requests have led to arrests.

Leander, just 30 minutes north of Austin, has no restrictions on facial-recognition technology. Leander Police Department has access to Clearview AI and a designated Clearview “influencer,” Officer David Wilson, who handles requests for searches using the technology.

In response to The Post’s report, officials in the Austin Police Department said they had no idea such requests were being made and that investigations were now taking place.

A total of 21 cities or countries across eleven states, and the entire state of Vermont, have banned facial-recognition software for use by law enforcement. As well as privacy concerns, opponents have cited racial discrimination as a reason for banning the technology.

The Michigan Civil Rights Commission has passed a regulation that urges Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer to form a task force to “[regulate] the use, acquisition and implementation of artificial intelligence in policing so as to eliminate the perpetuation of bias and discrimination.”

US Officials: Russia Deploying Space Weapons

Russian deployed Kosmos 2576 into the path of a US spy satellite

Russia may have deployed a space weapon last week as part of its Kosmos 2576 satellite, according to US military officials.

“Just last week, on May 16, Russia launched a satellite into low-Earth orbit that the United States assesses is likely a counter-space weapon presumably capable of attacking other satellites in low-Earth orbit,” said Robert Wood, the deputy US ambassador to the United Nations.

“Russia deployed this new counter-space weapon into the same orbit as a US government satellite.”

??️ I spoke with @VOANews about what we know about the reported launch of Kosmos-2576, a #Russian Nivelir-L class “inspector” satellite likely shadowing US Government satellite USA-314 & that the #Pentagon has described as a #Kremlin orbital counterspace weapon: pic.twitter.com/jnA71YcLpS

The Kosmos 2576 satellite is following the same orbital plane as a National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) spy satellite. This will allow Kosmos 2576 to approach the American satellite and, potentially, interfere with or destroy it.

As the website Ars Technica reports, “The launch of Kosmos 2576 from Russia’s Plesetsk Cosmodrome on a Soyuz rocket was precisely timed to happen when the Earth’s rotation brought the launch site underneath the orbital path of the NRO spy satellite, officially designated USA 314.”

Russia’s deputy foreign minister, Sergei Ryabkov, dismissed the US governments statements as “fake news.”

Previous launches and maneuvers in orbit have raised concerns that the Russians are developing and deploying space- and ground-based weaponry to target US satellites.

In 2020, the Russian Kosmos 1543 satellite was tracked as it followed USA 245. The Russian satellite ejected an unknown projectile at a velocity of around 400 mph (700km per hour), which could easily damage another satellite.

US Space Command said the event was a “non-destructive test of a space-based anti-satellite weapon.” 

Government officials believe the Russians are also developing nuclear anti-satellite weapons.
