SHPRD proposes turning surveillance back on elected officials
A proposal for consent-based, continuous monitoring of officeholders’ accounts, calendars, trades, and records, with answers published.
- For
- Residents seeking public-official accountability
- Worth noticing
- The sample monitor panel contains bracketed placeholders, despite displaying “UPTIME 100%” and streaming labels.
Field notes
The proposal describes comparing records across categories: trades against closed briefings and committee calendars, or vendor selections against donor history and relatives’ employment. It says message content would remain uncollected, while metadata such as numbers, timestamps, and duration would be tracked. The sample monitor panel uses placeholder fields, so the displayed streaming labels and uptime figure do not establish that the system is operating.
