#22I didn't see mention of why the other 6 states are not available in the data?
Or which 6 don't have data? Would be nice if they were listed with a little more info, otherwise looks like we need to figure out which 6 are missing from the select options.

#24So now to cross-check who’s now working in another state.
Yes, would love to see much more analysis on this data state by state. Which states have the lowest rates of police misconduct? And is it an indicator of better training and accountability, or more corruption with practices that sweep misconduct under the rug?

No.

I imagine they get a pretty low amount of EU traffic, and so went for the least effort path to deal with GDPR. And, yeah, IP location databases are often wrong. Or maybe they just treat "non US IP" as "redirect to sparse GDPR site". It is an odd publication. They have some sort of deal with many US hotels where guests get a paper copy for free. I suspect that represents the overwhelming share of anyone that reads it.…
>I imagine they get a pretty low amount of EU traffic, and so went for the least effort path to deal with GDPR. But they haven't actually dealt with it. This is a common misunderstanding among websites that do this. EU citizens are not required to identify themselves to you preemptively for GDPR to apply. If I connect to their website via a US VPN and they start tracking me without asking my consent assuming I'm from…
Article 37 says that a DPO is needed if the controller and processor (a) is a public authority or body (except for courts), (b) their core activities require regular and systematic monitoring of data subjects on a large scale, or (c) their core activities include processing on a large scale of special categories of data from Article 9 or data related to criminal convictions and offences referred to in Article 10.
It sounds like their EU site would not fall under any of those.
Their US site might, but their US site seems like it would be out of scope for GDPR according to Article 3, because it is not offering goods or services to data subjects in the Union.

The main role of the police is to act as a deterrent for criminal behavior, not to fight crime (though they do both). Being seen by everyone who drives by fulfills the deterrent role, while allowing them to generate income for their precinct that keeps taxes lower.
