Thanks.

Why did Annie To take so long to forward this request to us?

Arlette: Since the deadline is this Sunday, we will respond today, but, for future reference, we would like to find out about the legal impact on the deadline of a request to a Council office being sent to another department. In my view, t

he deadline should be extended when a requester submits a request to a separateagency where Citywide requests are not processed for intake. When you get a chance, could you check on that?

I am requesting any and all files/documents/emails (digital and/or paper hard copy) from the personal email account(s) of City of Oakland, Port of Oakland and/o

r Oakland Police/Fire Department staff/contractors that pertain directly or indirectly to the concept, design, planning, construction, implementation and contractor qualifications/compliance in regard to the City/Port of Oakland Joint Domain Awareness Center project ranging in dates from December 2012 through December2013 (individual parties under this request are as follows):

In light of this request I advise compliance and notify all respondents that willful destruction of communications/records/evidence can and will be used againstthem within possible State and/or Federal investigations regarding ethics, perjury, malfeasance and/or obstruction. The willful destruction of communications/r

ecords/evidence after the date/time of this request will be logged on the servers of corresponding email providers/ISPs with date/time stamp. In most cases these emails are actually retained for up to 24 months from date/time of deletion/destruction and of which we are willing to attain by legal means within the scopeof a broader and more attentive action. The exact moment any respondents deletescommunications from their personal email account(s), or purposefully withholdscommunications from their personal email account(s), this may and most likely will be a criminal act.

Judge plugs private emailloophole in CA public records law

(March 20, 2013) Peter ScheerIn a big victory for open government, a Superior Court judge in San Jose has ruled that the states Public Records Act applies to government officialsemails and texts about government businessEVEN IF those messagesare sent or received using the officialsprivate email or text accounts, rather than accounts belonging to the government.

The decision by Superior Court Judge James Kleinberg rejected San Joses argument

that local governments cant be held legally responsible for digital messages thatreside in computer servers that they dont own, lease, use or control. Judge Kleinberg reasoned that government officials, when emailing and texting about government business, are functioning as agents of the city. The officialsownership andcontrol of the messages is imputed to the city.

The decision is consistent with FACs 2012 suit against the city of Auburn. That case ended in a settlement in which Auburn agreed to adopt policies requiring city officials, when emailing about city business using their personal email accounts, to ccthe emails to a city mail server where they would be stored in a searcha


5/118

ble archive.

In recent years more and more government officials have turned to personal emailaccounts as a back channel for official communications, believing that those communications are shielded from disclosure under the Public Records Act. The newdecision, Ted Smith v. City of San Jose et al., suggests that belief may be misplaced.

[Attached] is the full text of Judge Kleinbergs decision.

I ask for a determination on this request within 10 days, and an even prompter reply if you can make that determination without having to review the records inquestion.

If you determine that some but not all of the information is exempt from disclosure and that you intend to withhold it, I ask that you redact it for the time being and make the rest available as requested.

In any event, please provide a notification citing the legal authorities on which you rely if you determine that any or all of the information is exempt and will not be disclosed.

If I can provide any clarification that will help expedite your attention to myrequest, please contact me. I ask that you notify me of any duplication costs exceeding $20 before you duplicate the records so that I may decide which recordsI want copied.

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Joshua [email protected]

Good morning Councilmember Schaaf,

First off, I hope you're well and had a relaxing Thanksgiving. Darwin Bond-Graha

m and I have obtained extensive e-mail and other records (several thousand pages) pertaining to the Domain Awareness Center surveillance center project (DAC).

The records we have raise very serious questions about the DAC project. For example, it appears that SAIC employees may have perjured themselves when they signed the DAC contract. It appears city staff rushed the project and didn't do due diligence on the contractor's nuclear weapons ties. That's just one of many issues we have found in these records - others include the planned scope of the DAC and how this program expanded beyond the port, and whether the council's privacy


8/118

resolution will actually restrict the data sources and retention of video and other data that will feed into the DAC.

Please let us know as soon as possible if you are available for a sit-down interview about this topic. We're willing to share the documentation of these facts with, and would like to see how what we learned squares away with your understanding of the project and how the council's actions to date actually will impact the development and design of the DAC.

Darwin and I are scheduling news stories right now to run in two weeks, so our first deadline is Tuesday of next week.

Look forward to hearing from you,Ali Winston917-334-5403

Hi Libby,

Ali Winston and I have obtained several thousand pages of e-mails, memos, briefings, and other documents pertaining to the DAC project.

The records we have raise several very serious questions about the DAC, the process by which the project was approved, the ultimate aims of the project, and theconduct of the Phase 1 contractor SAIC. One problem pertains directly to the Pr

Dear Ms. Schaaf:

I urge you to oppose funding the "Domain Awareness Center."

I'm very surprised the the City is considering going along with this project, given what the Snowden revelations have shown about the federal government's overreach in spying on U.S. citizens.

Do we really want Oakland to be on the forefront of warrantless spying on its citizens? Do we really want to trust the federal government with these huge databases of information gathered without citizens' consent?

The civil liberties implications are staggering.

Please send me information about your position on this controversial subject.

Council Members,

I know crime is a big problem in Oakland, but wholesale violation ofcitizens' privacy is not the answer. You may be able to convinceyourselves that the DAC is justified because of the severity of thecurrent problem. But unless you include strong scratch that unbreakable measures to prevent abuse of these tools and the expansionof their use into other areas and other kinds of crime, you're invitingtrouble. Especially if you're contracting with for-profit companies forthese tools. Once they have their hooks into Oakland, they will look forways to maximize their profits.

I know this vote has already taken place, but it was irresponsible, andI hope enough of you will eventually see your way clear to not using

taxpayer dollars to push Oakland toward becoming a surveillance "state."

I'm currently writing a piece on the idea of the Bay Area city leadersand law enforcement reaching out for counsel from experts whenconfronted with something like the DAC in Oakland.

What I would love to know from you is a few things. Firstly, I'd love toknow the overall philosophy of the council (if there is one, as membersdo come and go) on seeking counsel on topics from the experts (suchas from the ACLU on the DAC). I know in this specific case you had a

meeting with Linda, and Mr. Kalb said you've adopted some ideas forprivacy protection before the DAC is running....but she mentioned tome that she recommended you all don't move forward with the DAC asoutlined here: https://www.aclunc.org/blog/blog_-_aclu_urges_oakland_cit

What I'd love to know is, in this case and overall, the approach to whatadvice from experts to embrace and what not to.

nd Oakland City Council.

Hi,

I am the guy who "complained" to you(Oliver Luby) on the phone last week. Thanks for your time.

I am extremely concerned with the continued surveillance state in this country. I am extremely disappointed that you do not take the residents of Oakland'sprivacy concerns, and 4th amendment protection of our privacy, more seriously.I am extremely disappointed Mr. Kalb was enthusiastic about this new technologyto continue to keep watch on the city of Oakland, without raising questions about any privacy matters, until they were eventually brought up by many at the meeting, including a lawyer from the ACLU.

Mr. Luby told me in our phone conversation that taking free money is a no-brainer for a politician. As a newcomer to politics I'm glad to see that Mr. Kalb isalready part of the "good ole boys" Maybe you can make more of a name for yourself by standing up to what your constituents are actually trying to tell you. Weare concerned about the growing surveillance and police state in this country and this city in particular. I, and many speaking out, are trying to tell you weare not ok with being watched and listened to 24/7. I am not OK with the expansi

on of the DHS.

I am interested to know how the missing councilmembers would have voted. Mr.Reid, and Ms. Brooks.

We already live in Oakland a NON CONSTITUTIONAL ZONE!http://www.aclu.org/technology-and-liberty/fact-sheet-us-constitution-free-zone.http://www.storyleak.com/media-live-in-post-constitutional-america/

In Dan's clause to the proposal he states. "The city wants to ensure public co

nfidence in the DAC" How has/will he done/do this?. Do you find that the public has any confidence in the protection of data? Do you have any confidence thatthe DHS or others won't use this info?

How are you in City Council going to ensure us that our information will notbe reviewed, stored, decimated, and used to spy on us.How can you prove to Oakland they won't. Will you blindly trust safeguards put in by a "corrupt" contractor? What will you do about it if they do? Will you accept the responsibility inthis experiment with the 4th amendment? Am I being paranoid? Not really. I follow the news. I actually listen to what the NSA whistle-blowers are trying to tell us. Ed Snowden is but one of many who are telling us not to trust the intelligence gatherers.

What they are saying loud and clear is this. "Big brother is here, We are beingspied on in many ways we don't even think about. They lie to us and tell us thatthis data is anonymous and is "metadata" They lie. It is used for politics, blackmail, spying on loved ones and personal enemies. It is used by people with very little govt clearance. "More than half of SAIC's (44,000)employees have security clearances."

There are too many stories out there to not be concerned about this.https://www.eff.org/es/nsa-spying/faqhttp://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130805/10035024070/dea-not-only-gets-intellig

her contracts it had with the government?..""

So it seems to me that we accepted the $2m grant, and gave it to a wasteful,secretive,nefarious, defense contractor that has sold meta-data software that was used to collect anything and everything illegally used by NSA and CIA etc. Whatdid I miss. ? How much more are you planning on giving them to lie, spy, andviolate our rights?

We do NOT have to accept money from crooked, bloated, ineffective government agencies under the guise of Protecting us Oaklanders. Say no to the DHS, help declare Oakland a Constitutional Zone. Help us fight back against a Big Brother State.

This is a report on DHS by Homeland Security Committee, chairman Rep Bennie Thompson in 2008

"DHS leadership has permitted a system of waste, abuse, mismanagement, vaguecontractual terms, overspending, bonuses for bad performance, contractors beinghired to oversee

contractors and the same missteps over and over again...A casual look at some ofthe Departments efforts leads to disturbing findings:$5 million dollar a mile fences; TWIC cards that cant be read; Ships that dont fitinto ports;Formaldehyde soaked trailers that make the occupants sick, and An information sharing program thatlaw enforcement personnel do not want to use."

or this.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/09/september-11-homeland-security-spending_n_953288.html

"It opened a floodgate of money for private industry to sell scanners and otherdevices," said Charles Perrow, a Yale sociology professor who has called the creation of DHS "The disaster after 9.11""A lot of money was kind of thrown at theproblem," said John Gannon, a former deputy director of the CIA.....You certainly had an insufficient and an inexperienced contracting team," said former DHS Inspector General Clark Kent Ervin. "And you certainly had rapacious contractors."

Listen to what these reports are saying. DHS wastes money in a big way and throws it a defense contract teams. Sounds exactly what this City Council wants to do. I hope this helps you guys connect these dots. Stand up to them. Let this become a big talking point in Oakland. Lets get everyone talking about it. You will be considered, stand up politicians. will cause debate on real issues, and will help the unaware get involved in what is really going on. A win, win, win. Th

is can help cause national debate. Remember this Oakland issue was on reddit. You had a student from Harvard saying she is debating your interesting decision inher class. You have Ed Snowden and others bringing attention to this.

You at least need to take a good hard look at SAIC and think seriously about leaving them out of your final equation.

According to an article in the east bay express,in 2011 there were 1871!! open requests for analysis of crime scene data. Let's stop accepting and spending mone


22/118

y on ineffective totalitarian surveillance, and start being hands on and actually spending money on things Oakland does not have that most Police Dept do.OPD has requested 1.3 million for 13 full time staffers . Oakland has an avg o

f 30 open criminal cases, 6x the state avg. Oakland has a response time at 14.8mins. double the times of SF, Anaheim, Fresno, Sacramento.

Can you show me how any of the surveillance has lowered this extremely highnumber. How do these other cities manage such a better level of efficiency thanOakland in most statistics. How has shotspotter specifically improved these times or numbers. ?(I'm guessing I will just have to research that myself too)

Is this new technology effective? All this spying by the NSA , all of this eroding of our bill of rights, all of this about non constitutional zones. This technology just doesn't deter any crime or "terrorism" Please point me to one report or reason that this surveillance system will help protect us from crime(terrorism) Since the Patriot Act was introduced in 2001, and with hundreds of millionsof phone calls recorded, they maybe, might have caught ONE, that is 1.http://www.democracynow.org/2013/8/1/nsa_confirms_dragnet_phone_records_collection

effectiveness of CCTV

http://www.no-cctv.org.uk/caseagainst/london_cameras_versus_clearup.asp

What kind of research or time has Mr. Kalb or city council spent looking intothe DAC and its legality? Why did he on July 9th, sound excited? "sounds good tome!" On July 16th he tried to imply that the public should be aware of , and bethere to inform him on things he didn't know "I wish you guys were here 2 weeksago for the public safety meeting" , like having the OUSD feed go to the DAC, and not having any plans or knowledge of what they would do concerning storage ofthe data.

Why didn't Mr. Kalb or anyone else raise additional questions about the Lic Plate reading technology.? ACLU specifically raised this point that was either missed or ignored by everyone there. This should NOT be part of the DAC.

Do you know what kind of video analytics DAC would be capable of in July '14?Ms. Gibson McElhaney asked if there was "video movement or facial recognition technology?" The spokesman just referenced the facial rec, does this mean there WILL be video movement analysis? What this an oversight, or what would that meanexactly?

Are you able to tell me any more info on Shot Spotter technology. ? How many a

re now in Oakland? How many are in district 1? What is the effectiveness ? Whathave you done to ensure they are not listening to and storing conversations on the street? Oh yeah I had to inform Mr. Luby on the fact that the people who runthat company lied to us. Can you please do something about that? Comments?http://www.southcoasttoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20120111/NEWS/201110339"ShotSpotter officials say their acoustic sensors, set up to detect gunfire, are not designed to record conversations on the street. However, court documents show that audio surveillance helped provide specific details that enabled police


23/118

to string together the sequence of events that ended in the fatal shooting of Pina, 20, in the South End.

The apparent ability of ShotSpotter to record voices on the street raises questions about privacy rights and highlights another example of how emerging technologies can pose challenges to enforcing the law while also protecting civil liberties.....On Jan. 6, during bail arguments for Jonathan Flores, 20, who is charged with murder, Assistant District Attorney Dan Hourihan said ShotSpotter recorded the arguing and yelling at the corner of Dartmouth and Matthew streets."

Questions every politician should ask of themselves. When will you consider the war on terror over? What liberties are you ok with losing, and what would begoing to far? Then I would ask why a $2m port grant for terrorism includessurveillance of ALL residents.

I look forward to any response, I look forward to any further discussion on these issues.

I am not going away. I have only recently(2+years)begun to dig into the constraints that the government has been putting on the American people. I am supposedto be a free person. I am supposed to be protected and represented by people that swore an oath to the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES. I'm guessing you'veread this part , its at the very top. SECTION 1. All people are by nature free a

nd independent and have inalienable rights. Among these are enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing, and protecting property, and pursuing and obtaining safety, happiness, and privacy.

I will personally hold all of you accountable for voting against anything you've sworn to from this point forward. I am going to do my best to promote these ideals. I helped start a youtube channel to keep an eye on your guys."WakeUpOakland" I am going to use my many personal oakland contacts and start promoting therights we have as free Americans leaving in the free state of California. The great people of Oakland deserve to have their liberties protected, our public servants to listen the people. We need the Police to Protect and Serve. Not spy, intimidate, and violate rights. We need our Fire Dept to come up with local plansand policies that don't tie into DHS money and rules.

As a resident in district one in Oakland, I now put Mr. Kalb and the city council on notice. I am watching you.I'll leave you with this.

As Philip Dick put it in an interview for SF Eye magazine in 1996:

"Any government which assumes that the population is going to do something evilhas already lost its franchise to govern. The tacit contract between a government and the people governed is that the government will trust the people and the p

eople will trust the government. But once the government begins to mistrust thepeople it is governing, it loses its mandate to rule because it is no longer acting as a spokesman for the people, but is acting as an agent of persecution". Love Jim.

This is horrible and it happened a block and half from my daughter's day care.

Enough is enough. What is my City's government doing to stop this from happening? As far as I can tell, not enough. What can we do to take the war on crime to the criminals - how about bait cars, how about cameras at intersections, how about more cops. I hate to sound like a right wing nut job, but

the basic function of government is to protect its citizens - which isn't happening.

That's true in that the GIS data coming from the port to the DAC is static dataand not surveillance in nature. So by that reasoning it should be outside the concerns about privacy and data retention policy.

I think that the third Resolve would limit our ability, due to granularity of identifying each and every system, to fully utilize the DAC information management

platform. However, most of the planned integrations are Police and Fire data sources and internal applications, and need to be integrated for operational efficiency and effective use of resources for quick responses to emergencies. Some ofthem are like 911 CAD, Police and Fire Records Management System, License PlateRecognition, Police and Fire Scheduling Application, Police and Fire AutomaticVehicle Locations System, City Geographical Information System with various layers, City Assets, etc.

CM Schaaf, following conversation with Port staff, would like to modifythe third resolve to include a couple of Port systems that we already had planned to integrate in Phase 2 that we don't think will cause too much of a problemthePort GIS and the Vessel Tracking System. These are both clearly Port securityrelated and shouldn't raise an eyebrow from personal privacy advocates.



Thanks,

Mike O'Brien

While our preference would be to go with Councilmember Schaaf's earlier suggestion today to just say that Phase 2 would enable integration of video and data feeds from the City of Oakland and Port of Oakland, at minimum, we would request inclusion of the Port's GIS system in the proposed language below.

Further Resolved: That The City/Port Joint Domain Awareness Center (DAC) Phases1 and 2 includes data and video feeds from the following surveillance, security

censor and video analytics sources only: Port Video and Intrusion Detection Cameras, Port of Oakland Vessel Tracking System, Port of Oakland GIS System, City ofOakland traffic cameras, City of Oakland Shot Spotter Censor System, and License Plate Recognition system; and that the addition of any new surveillance, security censor or video analytics feed or data sources shall require approval


Thanks,

Joanne
