This was not a hack. This was not a breach. This was Facebook's systems working exactly as they were designed to work.
Without robust privacy protections, "big data" inevitably favors the powerful at the expense of the powerless. Time and again, personal information has been used to exploit, manipulate, and harm marginalized communities.
This isn't the first time we've heard about Cambridge Analytica's data abuse and Facebook's role in it. Something must change.
That's why it is past time for consumer data privacy laws guaranteeing opt-in consent, the right to know how has your data, and a private right of action. eff.org/deeplinks/2019…

Read the extensive Q&A that @GridNews did with EFF’s @DavidGreene about why a TikTok ban makes no sense. 🧵
grid.news/story/technolo…
"If the government is really concerned ... it should look at data privacy more broadly & enact more comprehensive data-privacy regulation that would restrict how all companies, not just TikTok, collect & retain & use user data.” - @DavidGreene in @GridNews grid.news/story/technolo…
Each TikTok user “does their own threat modeling; they can determine to what extent, if they have enough knowledge about how their data is used, whether the threat that using the app poses is something that’s acceptable for them."-@DavidGreene in @GridNews grid.news/story/technolo…

It's Sunshine Week, and that means The Foilies, EFF and @MuckRock's annual faux awards for agencies that behave badly when confronted with public records requests. The winners are… eff.org/deeplinks/2023…
The Federal Bureau of Investigation for dragging its feet in providing records on how it was keeping tabs on The Monkees. eff.org/deeplinks/2023… a cartoon drawing of a memb...
The National Security Agency for being transparent about the thousands of times it could neither confirm nor deny it had information requested by a member of the public. eff.org/deeplinks/2023… a cartoon drawing of a larg...

Victory! The security expert @olabini was finally declared innocent yesterday in a unanimous verdict by a three-judge tribunal in Ecuador. 1/ peoplesdispatch.org/2023/02/01/dig…
@olabini Since his 70-day arbitrary detention in 2019, Ola Bini’s case has been impacted by numerous due process violations and human rights concerns. It went through suspensions or delays at nearly every stage of his trial. 2/ eff.org/deeplinks/2023…
@olabini He faced unfounded accusations based on misunderstandings of technology, which disregarded the vital role of security experts and secure technology to safeguard everyone’s rights and security. 3/ eff.org/deeplinks/2021…

El Martes 31 de enero se reinstala la audiencia de juicio de @olabini. Estamos pendientes y esperando que la corte de un ejemplo de transparencia y ajustado a los criterios técnicos y legales.
@eff Nos preocupa que un único día de audiencia no baste para terminar un juicio ya lleno de retrasos e irregularidades eff.org/es/deeplinks/2…
@eff Este proceso y la necesidad de decisiones ajustadas a criterios técnicos y legales son vitales para los derechos digitales en Ecuador.

More than 80 public interest groups remind UN Member States that the broad and undefined concepts contained in the #UNCybercrimeTreaty - such as “terrorism” and “extremism” - should not be used as a basis to restrict freedom of expression. eff.org/deeplinks/2022…
The Criminalization Chapter under the #UNCybercrime Treaty should be restricted to core cybercrimes – criminal offenses where ICT systems are the direct objects and instruments of the crimes. eff.org/deeplinks/2022…
Clusters 2 to 10 of the #UNCybercrime Treaty include offenses that are not core cybercrimes, are drafted with vague language, or are offenses that interfere with protected speech. These cluster of offenses should be excluded from the proposed Convention. eff.org/deeplinks/2022…

EFF’s @txitua delivered an oral statement today in front of @UN_Vienna Member States urging them not to create legal woes for security researchers who expose security flaws in the draft #UNCybercrimeTreaty. /1 eff.org/pages/oral-int…
@EFF During the negotiations of the #UNCybercrimeTreaty in Vienna, EFF urged UN Member States to focus on the criminal conduct of using security tools rather than the mere possession, production, or distribution. /2 eff.org/files/2023/01/…
@EFF Article 10 of the #UNCybercrimeTreaty over-criminalizes password sharing. While passwords can be illegally sold for profit, many are shared by friends and family without profit. The article could turn millions of persons into cybercriminals overnight eff.org/pages/oral-int…
