As Alzheimer’s becomes more common this privacy lawyer believes companies must accommodate family caregivers’ need for basic financial account info. Don’t use “privacy law” to justify shutting down insurance policies or costing patients benefits they’ve earned. #ftc #privacyharm

Big news from my wife and the Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project. They are getting a client freed this afternoon after 27 years of wrongful incarceration. MAIP helped design the grant that led to case review and this exoneration.

I think the C-suite of Equifax should be required to take their entire compensation for the next 10 years in the form of credit monitoring service.

Most important privacy story of the week. Bad data = data-driven discrimination. Next privacy bill has to be about far more than simply controlling access to PII; it has to help stamp out accidental or intentional discrim washingtonpost.com/health/2019/10…

Proud to be even a small part of this very important podcast. The erosion of privacy has sometimes deadly results. Time to regulate the data brokers.

It's not bad enough that they are a data broker of scraped facial images of 3B images but now we learn that their data was stolen. Insert eye roll. Who could have seen this coming?

When people say "The reason you can't trust science is that scientists used to say <thing that turned out to be wrong> but now they say <different thing>", they're actually explaining why science works so well.

Software vulnerabilities rediscovered far more often than expected. We must demand more disclosures to protect users. #schneierblog

IMHO, "Content Moderation" is the MOST important thing that's happening in Internet policy right now. It's the intersection of numerous issues and the hope for a better Internet.
