Canned Dog Food Recalled Over Metal Contamination Concerns
Wisconsin-based Fromm Family Foods is voluntarily recalling more than 5,000 cases of wet dog food sold nationwide and in Canada after receiving consumer complaints about potential metal contamination. The recall affects 3,852 cases of Fromm Turkey Pâté Wet Dog Food and 1,973 cases of Diner Classics Milo's Meatloaf Pâté Wet Dog Food, both carrying the lot code EP2A3306 and a best-by date of March 2029. Company officials urged pet owners to stop feeding the affected products to their dogs immediately and return them to the retailer where they were purchased. While no illnesses have been reported, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned that ingesting metal fragments can cause severe health issues for pets, including mouth and gastrointestinal lacerations, stomach upset, and intestinal blockages. The recalled cans were distributed through independent pet stores and online outlets across the United States and Canada.

Walmart Recalls 41,000 Baby Swings, Jumpers Following Reports of Infant Injuries
Federal safety officials have announced a nationwide recall of about 41,100 baby jumpers and swings sold online at Walmart, Amazon and Taleco Gear after 32 reported injuries to infants. The recall affects G Taleco Gear Baby Jumpers, Baby Swings and 2-in-1 Baby Jumper & Swings due to severe fall, impact and strangulation hazards. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the products can become unstable, while hanging restraint straps and seat openings pose strangulation risks. Manufacturer Taleco Gear has received at least 52 reports of safety hazards associated with the products, with injuries including head bumps and a bloody nose. The recalled items were sold in various colors between April 2021 and July 2026, retailing for between $65 and $120. Consumers are urged to stop using the items immediately and contact Taleco Gear for instructions on how to destroy the product and submit photo proof for a full refund.

Interview with Glenn McGovern on Civil Rights concerns with FLOCK camera database.
The good

A stolen or wanted vehicle can trigger an alert within seconds.
Investigators can reconstruct where a suspect’s vehicle traveled.
Cameras can help locate abducted, endangered, or missing people.
They provide leads without requiring officers to watch every camera continuously.
Search logs can reveal improper use—provided supervisors actually audit them.
Compared with facial recognition, the primary identifier is a vehicle rather than a person’s face.
Used narrowly for serious crimes, with verification and strong oversight, this can be a valuable investigative tool.
The dangers
The central issue is not one camera photographing one car. It is the ability to search a connected network and reconstruct somebody’s movements.
Mass location tracking: A plate can usually be connected to its registered owner. Repeated sightings can reveal someone’s home, workplace, relationships, medical visits, religious activity, protests, or travel patterns.
People not suspected of crimes are recorded: The database mainly consists of innocent drivers going about daily life.
Errors and wrongful stops: Cameras can misread plates, and hotlists may contain outdated or incorrect information. If officers treat an alert as proof instead of a lead requiring visual confirmation, an innocent driver can face a dangerous traffic stop.
Insider misuse: An officer or employee could search for an ex-partner, neighbor, journalist, political opponent, or another person for personal reasons. Audit logs help after the fact but do not necessarily prevent the first misuse.
Data sharing and “mission creep”: A system purchased for stolen cars can later be used for immigration enforcement, abortion investigations, minor offenses, intelligence gathering, or broader AI-driven analysis. Flock temporarily halted federal pilot programs after an Illinois audit found federal access that raised questions under state law. Associated Press report
Uneven rules: America has no single comprehensive national law governing every local and privately operated plate-reader network. Protections depend heavily on state law, contracts, and individual police policies.
Cybersecurity and commercial control: A breach, stolen account, or bad configuration could expose highly sensitive travel information. It is also significant that so much public movement data depends on one private vendor’s software and policies.
Chilling effects: Even without anyone being arrested, awareness of persistent tracking may discourage people from attending protests, visiting sensitive medical facilities, meeting confidential sources, or practicing religion freely.
The ACLU describes the connected system as nationwide surveillance infrastructure and documents concerns about immigration, reproductive-health investigations, private-sector watchlists, and expanding AI searches. That is an advocacy perspective, but the underlying examples deserve serious scrutiny.

Kenner police have solved more than 100 cases so far this year using Flock license plate readers, but civil rights advocates warn of privacy risks and potential misuse.

Chloe Beck was excited by the prospect of jury duty when she was called to serve on a trial in early 2018. It could be a much-needed break from work, she thought.

But the case turned out to be a gruesome trial that would change Ms. Beck’s life for years to come. A nanny had been charged with stabbing two children to death in the bathtub of their family’s Upper West Side apartment. As an alternate juror, Ms. Beck, then an administrator at New York University, sat alongside the rest of the trial’s jurors as they listened to devastating testimony from the children’s parents and examined grisly crime scene photos.

“To this day, I still see those images,” said Ms. Beck, now 38. “The little orange toothbrush hanging on the wall, covered in blood.”

But throughout the seven-week trial, Ms. Beck had little to no support, bound by the restriction that she couldn’t discuss the case until it was resolved. “They just pluck you out of your normal life, show you these horrible things — and then tell you not to say a word about it,” she said.
