1/ France has criminalized legal analytics: "The identity data of magistrates and members of the judiciary cannot be reused with the purpose or effect of evaluating, analysing, comparing or predicting their actual or alleged professional practices."

2/ In 2013, I told a 6th Circuit judge that machine learning could determine trends and patterns in his voting record, as a means to predict how he would vote. The judge was absolutely indignant and refused the notion that his behavior could be mapped by an algorithm.
3/ I can see why the French judiciary has now made it a crime to analyze how judges behave.

1/ Running thread as I read through the 88 pages (!) of Gamble v. US. First, I'll start w/ J. Alito's majority opinion #SCOTUS
2/ Gamble considered a draft of the Double Jeopardy Clause that was rejected. Alito says this draft should "count for little" bc "The private intent behind a drafter’s rejection of one version of a text is shoddy evidence of the public meaning of an altogether different text"
3/ In other contexts, Justices have given great weight to rejected proposals. For, in Lee v. Weisman context, J. Souter focused at great length about earlier versions of the Establishment Clause that were rejected. scholar.google.com/scholar_case?c…

1/ A House bill was introduced that would prohibit the expenditure of any federal money on Trump properties amendments-rules.house.gov/amendments/COH…
2/ This bill may run afoul of Nixon v. GSA's prohibition on Bills of Attainder. supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/… First, the law at issue in Nixon concerned the President, by name, but also implicated the papers of other Presidents. This new law *only* concerns Trump properties.
3/ Second, the Court considers "whether the legislative record evinces a congressional intent to punish." Here, the record is quite clearly designed to punish Trump and only Trump

For those who asked, here's a quick recap of my comments from the plenary on 'A #Data Driven World – Can we Ensure #Privacy?' at @OECD #GoingDigital. 1. Innovation is not in opposition to privacy: innovation *in* privacy is a huge opportunity, and a competitive advantage. 1/n
2. Framing and narratives matter. Seeing #data only as an asset (oil, gold, currency, etc) ignores implicit risks. Also seeing it as radioactive (with a half-life), an externality, a ticking time bomb, a liability, etc helps to locate it in a larger ecosystem. 2/n #GoingDigital
3. To a tech hammer, every socioeconomic problem looks like a tech nail. Informational asymmetries and power imbalances require attention to complex structural issues, not just on deployment of one size fits all tech solutions in a box. 3/n #GoingDigital

1. From past two days, every house hold in Andhra Pradesh and every informed voter in Andhra Pradesh is discussing about Data Theft.

I will try to explain the monster attempt by CBN in simple terms..
2. What Happened ?

CBN and his Son Lokesh (IT Minister of AP), mapped the Electoral List of AP and Welfare scheme beneficiary list via advanced analytical software and tried to remove the votes of those, who are against TDP Govt.
3. What is Seva Mitra App ?

TDP Created an App called Seva mitra to collect the feedback from public on various welfare schemes.
