Summary of class today. Supreme Court’s privacy was violated so we know it is about to abort a women’s right of privacy as we know and our lack of privacy means huge risks from data brokers profiting in adversarial forced birth states.
There was also a scheduled discussion of web3 but it boiled down to the slurp juice is racist and interest in NFT has dropped 80% since the start of semester.
More class discussion notes:

web1
-decentralized protocols
-solo experience
-experimental web

web2
-centralized platforms
-social experience
-app for that

web3
-redecentralized chains
-ownership experience
-tokenization/financialization

2. In my view, Cambridge Analytica was an historically abusive violation of human rights that did not result in any meaningful remedies, so there is significant work to do in this area Image

without whistleblowers and leaks we don’t really know who is GDPR-compliant
Leaked doc is quite a read. It will take *years* of massive investment to fundamentally re-architect Facebook to become compliant. Consider incredible visualization of data entanglement to deduce that a Facebook user has moved from their hometown (a valuable advertising audience)
what does opting out even mean anymore? #DataRights

Sure would be nice if the USA had a national #DataRights act and muscular enforcement arm to get a handle on all the unbridled mass data abuse of cross-purposing and combining datasets
i fear that we basically need a constitutional amendment to reconcile the first and fourteenth with explicit and enforceable data subject rights
meanwhile the statehouses are devising their own patchwork (eg, today in Hartford) of subtle differences and definitions which is bad for data subjects, controllers, and processors alike but proves there is real voter appetite for a clamp-down and rights enablement claw-back

Since UK’s Channel4 is in the news, it’s worth revisiting its important international coverage such as when it received leak of the entire Cambridge Analytica Trump database from 2016 in lead-up to our 2020 election revealing a racist deterrence campaign. channel4.com/news/deterring…
Too few US outlets partnered with UK’s commercial public outlet soon-to-be-privatized-to-an-oligarch but Miami-Herald concluded that strategy to demobilize Black voters in Florida battleground was likely effective. GOP defended (CA/SCL’s) strategy/tactics. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…
I attribute C4 leak to CA/SCL because the data is a forensic match to documented structures and strategy/nomenclature match internal company documents published by former employee. However, C4 didn’t make the attribution which I think was serious error given available evidence.

Thank you @IanCLucas Book cover of Digital Gangs...
Just finished this important history book that narrates the period of political tumult (2015-2020) where we became aware of digital threats to democracy in UK and beyond. We sought accountability and came so close but it was obstructed by the power of the accused in a cover-up.
To order a copy go to digitalgangstersbook.com and it’s entirely unsurprising that none of the big publishers would touch this book. I myself have been unsuccessful in finding a major publisher willing to chronicle the true story of this significant period from my vantage point.
