Judge Orders Release of Reports on 2004 Surveillance — This looks to be a clear victory in the name of transparency, while allowing some redaction for sake of undercover police identities and such. If the ruling stands, and actually goes through, it’s a big win. Lack of oversight and accountability creates a huge temptation to abuse power…it’s always good to shine some light in. Uncomfortable at times, but good for everyone involved, police and protesters alike.
