After Vermont's privacy bill passed the House in March, local businesses began reaching out to senators, convincing them to water down the bill to fit the industry-backed "notice-and-consent" model.
I guess making money somewhat honestly by having customers that actually pay for a service with at least some guarantees of privacy and safety is not as lucrative as having an open platform network where people are tricked into giving out all their data while they are spied upon for whatever reasons.
Google Gemini now has extensions that can for example use the content of your Gmail inbox, very practical but also very scary from a security/privacy perspective. #googlegemini#AI#extensies#security#privacy

@paul@ErikJonker Precies de reden volgens mij om @Piratenpartij te stemmen. Er zijn legio zaken om aan te pakken, klimaat, woningmarkt, zorg, brede welvaart, enz. Maar er is maar 1 die dat serieus combineert met de impact van de informatiesamenleving. En als dat niet goed meegenomen wordt is de rest ook gedoemd te mislukken. #EP2024
@queenbee4ever@paul@Piratenpartij ..er zijn meer partijen die dit onderwerp serieus nemen vind ik (zoals #D66 naar mijn mening) maar het zou goed zijn als iedereen deze vraagstukken meer in het stemgedrag zou meenemen.
#AdTech#DataProtection#Privacy#TargetedAds: "In April, attorney Christine Dudley was listening to a book on her iPhone while playing a game on her Android tablet when she started to see in-game ads that reflected the audiobooks she recently checked out of the San Francisco Public Library.
Her audiobook consumption, she explained, had been highly focused the previous month, focused on a specific subgenre that she doesn't believe would come up by chance.
"You don't coincidentally come across mobile ads [for that particular subgenre]," she told The Register. "Those ads made me extremely angry."
Concerns about the privacy of library reading material date back to the early 20th century, explained Dorothea Salo, academic librarian and library-school instructor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, to The Register.
"There was a time when American libraries weren't sure what their stance on reader privacy should be," said Salo."
De Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens zoekt personeel: https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/werken-bij-de-ap
Weer alleen juristen en directeuren gevraagd, terwijl ze eindeloos veel effectiever zouder zijn met een paar programmeurs. Heel veel werk valt te automatiseren, zoals bijvoorbeeld @noybeu doet, met slechts een fractie van het budget tov de AP.
Are you a journalist, activist or whistleblower in need of an anonymous email account that doesn't require a personally identifiable recovery email address or phone number?
@vwdasher pretty obviously it would (a) be trivial to circumvent and (b) only ever apply to a small number of higher profile sites, leading to people (including kids) seeking out less mainstream, likely much dodgier sites. It must be opposed of course, but this trial may provide the opportunity to shoot this idea down for good. It would also be nice to see EFA actually do something. They've been almost nonexistent for many years
