Both public and private entities can summon the will to enforce good behavior.

We saw that today in Spain, where a prime minister was told “time’s up” after a no-confidence motion following a corruption scandal. We saw it earlier in the week when, on the very same day, Starbucks shut down for its long-planned awareness training on implicit bias and ABC summarily removed a star for racist tweets.

But integrity is often policed by individuals who exhibit it and expect it in others, and this week brought more evidence of that, too.

Some Google employees bridled at the tech giant’s lean into an artificial intelligence project that could essentially make death-by-drone more efficient. Facebook shareholders took that company to task for dragging its feet on addressing privacy issues.

Integrity in politics? It may be best to look at the private-citizen side. A new poll points to a surge in American youths’ confidence that, as individuals, they can have an effect on government.

New enforcers rising?

Now to our five stories for your Friday, including ones that highlight the importance of precision in disaster planning, of humanity in immigration enforcement, and of an openness to thinking differently in exploring space.
