#Surveillancetech is not inevitable. In New York, residents and activists are resisting landlords' use of #facialrecognition at the City Council level. https://gizmodo.com/nyc-msg-facial-recognition-landlords-ban-law-hearing-1850401997

> The reality is that people everywhere—including in China and the United States—are living in an increasingly digital world where surveillance has become ubiquitous, and accountability for rights abuses more challenging. It is misleading to characterize the future of technology as one hinged upon a battle between countries that are democratic versus those that are authoritarian... it is a battle to push back against the way in which technology is violating rights everywhere.

More great work on #surveillancetech (and other tech and human rights): this Technology Company dashboard by the Business and Human Rights Resource Centre https://www.business-humanrights.org/en/big-issues/technology-human-rights/technology-company-dashboards/

Great report by Access Now (+ ADC, LAPIN, LaLibre) on the companies that export #surveillance #surveillancetech to Latin America: https://www.accessnow.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ENG-Analysis-Remote-biometric-surveillance-LATAM.pdf

Thrilled to share that my chapter for the #AIGovernanceHandbook has been finally published! I present a political economy approach to smart city technologies and apply it to the diffusion of #surveillancetech in cities! Check it out! https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4308455

Sigh. While #law schools across the country move into finals week, a major publisher's third-party #DRM -laden digital casebook platform is down.

🤔 Do I file this under #DRMIsBad, Will Contracts 101 Professors Always Be Trolling Us, or True Stories of Why an MVP is Not Always the Best Path?

Asking for a friend. Ok, also me.

(Yes, I know, many profs would remind us that 'in their day,' and yes, I do wonder if maybe this is part of the exam...) #SurveillanceTech #EdTech #Privacy

@omartwotone this is pretty #fuckedup. Didn't even consider the non-existent legal protections on personal data synced from a vehicle. Time to pentest my 2012 #Audi for any #fiveeyes #surveillancetech

Huge.

#HHS bulletin re: third-party tracking on regulated entities' websites + mobile apps. Think patient portal login screens, symptom search, wellness checkers...

'Regulated entities are not permitted to use tracking technologies in a manner that would result in impermissible disclosures of PHI to tracking technology vendors or any other violations of the HIPAA Rules.'

Überfällig. Und noch überfälliger, dass da endlich was passiert und dieser Wildwest ein Ende hat. Den wenigsten von uns wird klar sein, dass sie von dem Moment an, wo sie ins Auto steigen, in einem potentiellen Zielobjekt unterwegs sind. Auch deutsche Hersteller mischen da fröhlich mit.

I loved @kashhill's last question to the panel. What gives them hope in the fight for #privacy?

Givens: The business risk of not paying attention to #contentmoderation or privacy, because of where consumer interests lie.

Bedoya: Up until recently, never in the US did the people say no to #surveillancetech. I was heartened when people learned about the warrantless use of #facialrecognition and protested it.
