Some of the things Oakland Privacy had a hand in in 2021:
- Received the James Madison Freedom of Information Award.
- Passage of Oakland’s and Berkeley’s Militarized Equipment Regulation Ordinances.
- Creation of the BadApple toolkit for police accountability.
- Castro neighborhood in San Francisco rejecting a gift of surveillance cameras.
- Settlement of Long Beach PD and Fresno Sheriff public records lawsuits
- Creation of a Vallejo Surveillance Oversight Board.
- Rose Foundation grant to fund an Oakland Privacy Fellow for two years.
- Settlement of a public records lawsuit against the Oakland Police Department, with their agreement to satisfy all public records requests outstanding (literally 1000’s) over a period of 12-18 months.
