The Met has\u00a0overhauled its \u2018Gangs Violence Matrix\u2019 database<\/a>\u00a0following a legal challenge by human rights organisation, Liberty. The tool is used by the police force to identify and monitor people suspected of being involved in gang-related crime.
\n<\/p>\n

Black men made up almost 80% of those on the database, and yet the vast majority were considered to be \u201clow risk\u201d by the police. It\u2019s\u00a0not entirely clear how someone ends up on the list<\/a>\u00a0but it\u2019s been proven to have real-world consequences, including increased risk of stop-and-search, as well as exclusion from education, housing and state benefits.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0lawyer at Liberty said the Met\u2019s tool<\/a>\u00a0“is fuelled heavily by racist stereotypes, based on who people are friends with, who their family members are, where they live, and where they go.”\u00a0The organisation was acting on behalf of Awate Suleiman, a writer and musician who wanted to find out if he was included in the database. After two years, the Met finally confirmed he was not on the list.<\/p>\n

Even as the Met has committed to a complete redesign of the system, it continues to use a wide range of other predictive tools and invasive surveillance technologies. Combined with its apparent disregard for transparency and armed with\u00a0increasingly draconian national legislation<\/a>, discriminatory policing appears set to continue.<\/p>\n

Surveillance & censorship of drill music<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Drill music, a subgenre of rap that originated in Chicago in the early 2010s, has become a focal point for London\u2019s police force in recent years. The music has long been criticised for being\u00a0linked to gang violence<\/a>, with one Member of Parliament saying it \u201cglamorises violence, stabbings and even murder.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s impossible to know exactly how many young people have been monitored because of their involvement in the drill music scene but it\u2019s undoubtedly having an impact. Digga D, a musician from London, was\u00a0forced to get approval for his lyrics<\/a>\u00a0and music videos by the police and, at one point, had to meet with police officers several times a day.<\/p>\n

The police have also actively attempted to\u00a0restrict music online<\/a>. They\u2019ve asked YouTube to remove over 500 music videos, and the platform has been happy to oblige, with 96.7 percent of requests granted. In 2019, researchers at the University College London were working on a tool to automatically monitor and flag any drill music videos\u00a0considered to be potentially dangerous<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This week, Meta\u2019s independent Oversight Board said that it had\u00a0overturned the company\u2019s decision<\/a>\u00a0to remove a drill music video of British artist Chinx (OS) from Instagram. Meta had originally removed the track after a request from the Met.<\/p>\n

The case \u201craises concerns about Meta\u2019s relationship with law enforcement, which has the potential to amplify bias,\u201d the Oversight Board said.<\/p>\n

 <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

Social media monitoring<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The police are not only interested in music videos uploaded to YouTube. They are also\u00a0scouring social media profiles as part of Project Alpha<\/a>, a programme launched in 2019 with the aim of uncovering evidence of serious crime and gang violence.<\/p>\n

Last year, I requested an internal document relating to the project under the Freedom of Information Act in the hope of learning more about the project. But the police force refused, saying that \u201conce redacted it was decided that the document would be deemed meaningless.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their response did, however, show that the team had made over 1,000 referrals to social media companies to remove content, and that the vast majority were approved, though they also refused to say what tools were being used to monitor social media feeds. This year, The Guardian reported that an internal document showed the project constitutes \u201cprofiling on a large scale<\/a>,\u201d with a particular focus on men aged between 15 and 21.<\/p>\n

It is highly unlikely that Project Alpha would not have similar racial disparities to the gangs database. In fact, the two projects appear to operate in tandem. The police\u2019s refusal to disclose documents that would have shed light on the racial dimensions of the project may only serve to confirm this.<\/p>\n

Technology enables discriminatory policing<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is now endless data that shows how the police in London disproportionately target young Black men: from\u00a0stop-and-search measures<\/a>\u00a0to the use of\u00a0GPS tags<\/a>\u00a0to monitor knife crime suspects.<\/p>\n

While the Met\u2019s gangs database may be moving in the right direction, it shouldn\u2019t have taken a legal challenge from a civil society organisation for the police to mitigate the obvious harm it poses. In fact, its continued existence shows how technology is continually adopted without due concern for how it may affect specific demographics. Even more worryingly, it\u2019s often being done in secret.<\/p>\n

Sadly, this lack of transparency means we\u2019re unlikely to ever know the true extent of the ways in which the police are using surveillance technology to monitor and target Black men in the capital.<\/p>\n

This landmark book explores the long history of racist surveillance practices in the United States, from the policing of black people during slavery to contemporary policing efforts. It demonstrates that surveillance solidifies race-based repression, while continuing to be the norm.<\/p>\n

This documentary follows rapper Digga D after his release from prison. He\u2019s one of the only UK musicians who\u2019s had to hand over artistic control to the police, unable to release music without first informing them of the lyrics and associated music videos.<\/p>\n

Drill artists, Drillminister, was commissioned by Channel 4 to create a song using language used by elected politicians in the UK. The project serves to highlight the hypocrisy of targeting drill music when elected politicians are using similarly violent language. A few years later, the\u00a0musician ran for London mayor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It concludes with a pertinent point: that \u201cthe advancement of modern technology has served only to further facilitate the police in its surveillance of marginalised communities.\u201d<\/p>\n
