There are 5,000 private spy cameras in New Orleans, operated by a former New Orleans Police Department officer without any oversight or accountability. Project Nola uses banned Chinese facial recognition technology to spy on every man, woman, and child in New Orleans.

Based on recent Supreme Court rulings, race, clothing, and tattoos are enough to be targeted by ICE. As Trump threatens to invade New Orleans, we detail how local activists track the spy network, advance legislation, and change policy.
