The Surveillance Technology Oversight Project is a non-profit advocacy organization and legal services provider. S.T.O.P. litigates and advocates against surveillance, fighting excessive local and state-level tracking. Our work highlights the discriminatory impact of surveillance on BIPOC communities, Muslim Americans, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ individuals.
