ÜberwachtAtlas ("Surveillance Atlas") is a project that shines a light on so-called "dangerous areas" in Germany, where the police have expanded powers to conduct suspicionless identity checks and searches of citizens. This map aims to raise awareness about the potential infringement of civil liberties, concentration of power, discrimination, and lack of transparency surrounding these "dangerous zones." By crowdsourcing data and mapping these areas, the project seeks to enable deeper analysis, comparison, and public scrutiny of this growing trend towards increased police surveillance and control in germany's federal system.

Thank you for reminding me that I don't have to live in Berlin anymore, and in Germany in general.
