In #Finland we have #equality and #NonDiscrimination #laws which make it illegal to, for instance, sack a person because they are, for instance, #disabled.

Apparently the #UnitedStates do not have such laws?

Sheer madness. Just what this world has bowed to.

#PoliticalCorrectness & #NonDiscrimination wins over #ClimateChange.

Are they going to stop producing their oil as a result? Now that would be one hell of a result.

Are they going to give away their accrued wealth to good causes? I think not.

A North Texas school district, Carroll ISD, has struck gender, sexual orientation — and religion?! — from their nondiscrimination statement.

This paper reconnects seemingly unconnected domains such as #dataprotection & #nondiscrimination, thanks to examples from case law and legislative developments such as the proposed #PlatformWork Directive. To fill the gaps, it uses employee involvement as a ‘force multiplier’.

3\ We show that fairness, in the sense of the DMA, goes beyond traditionally protected categories of #nondiscrimination law on which scholarship at the intersection of AI and law has often focused on. Rather, we draw on competition and IP law (FRAND) to interpret and refine the DMA provisions on fair rankings. Moreover, we show how, based on #CJEU jurisprudence, a coherent interpretation of the concept of non-discrimination in both traditional non-discrimination and competition law may be found.

Happy to share a video of a talk given in August at U Helsinki's Legal Tech Lab with Jürgen Neyer. We argue that #AI, particularly in specific instantiations such as #facerecognition, presents urgent challenges for the future of smart cities. Addressing these requires "substantive smartness", combining #humanrights and pol. activism. Thanks to Alina Wernick and Anna Artyushina for organizing!

We must address intersectional discrimination not only in speeches and documents but in EU anti-discrimination legislation. My #EPlenary speech on Racial justice, non-discrimination and anti-racism in the EU ⬇ #nondiscrimination #antiracism
