Towards the end of this short op-ed, @hartzog & I explain why ”obscurity” is valuable for individuals and society. You can substitute it for ”privacy” if you like.

Planting false rumors about toilet paper shortages in Chilean newspapers was one of the *many* dirty tricks the CIA used to help destabilize the goverment before the 1973 coup by Gen. Pinochet. Just Putin you on notice! 😏

Remember the draft #ePrivacy Regulation?? It’s back!
After 3 years of debate, Croatian @EUCouncil Presidency introduces ‘legitimate interests’ as basis for using metadata & cookies and aligns approach with #GDPR. Big gap now with @Europarl_EN position. data.consilium.europa.eu/doc…

The importance of this week for #EUdataP:
For 24 yrs 🇪🇺has placed strict restrictions on international transfers of personal data.
18 yrs ago @EU_Commission devised the most used mechanism to overcome those restrictions.
In 72 hours #CJEU AG may signal an end to that mechanism.

Oooh, a bit of white smoke coming out of the Council's WP meeting on ePrivacy 🌫️ 👓 "Aiming for COREPER" means that there is an avenue open to have the text adopted by ministers, but... "still some drafting to do".

So true! Giving your DNA up to a DNA testing site is like giving away the intimate details of your being, as well as those of your family, to third parties unknown. Get smart — Don’t do it!
Please don’t take consumer DNA tests. Please don’t give consumer DNA tests as gifts. You can’t control how the results will be used in the future and the results can affect the rest of your family. nytimes.com/2019/11/05/busin…

Be careful about uploading pictures of your children to various websites — the consequences are real. Better still, don’t do it!
14yrs ago, Dominique Allman Papa joined and uploaded pictures of her young children to the photo-sharing site @Flickr. Then she forgot all about them. Today those images reside in an astoundingly vast #facialrecognition database called #MegaFace. @nytimes

I’m a gay woman. I recycle a lot. I rescue cats. I pay my taxes and contribute to my local community. I want to be Batman. I’d also like a fully functioning model railway in my back garden. I dance like everyone is watching. I’m kind. I hate bigotry. But sure. I’m the problem.
