#Meta acquires #Limitless, which makes a wearable “pendant” that clips to clothing or a lanyard. The device records conversations, and can generate transcripts and produce searchable summaries through a companion app.

@catsalad @ReneDamkot that's the reason why I speeded up my efforts to move away from Android on my phone. (Years ago I moved from Microsoft to Linux already)
Part is the AI story.
The rest is the datagrab and also the unnecessary large use of resources (power & memory) to do the tasks at hand. Linux runs pretty well on 'old' windowmachines and the same seems with alternative OSs on Android phones. -
If you are thinking of coming to the LSE launch of #DataGrab on May 14 (available by live stream as well as in person), this joint blog by me and may co-author Ulises Mejias may whet your appetite: https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/lsereviewofbooks/2024/04/30/q-and-a-with-nick-couldry-and-ulises-a-mejias-on-data-grab/

@UlisesAliMejias and I just published this op ed in TruthOut: https://truthout.org/articles/ai-companies-want-to-colonize-our-data-heres-how-we-stop-them/ which sums up the argument of our new book #DataGrab published with @UChicagoPress https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/D/bo216184200.html

Is it just me or is this all part of the data grab connected to all .org plugins now showing on WordPress[.]com? From this email, all plugins installed on a sefl-hosted wp[.]org site will be updated via woo[.]com ?!

on February 8 @UlisesAliMejias and I launch in the UK our Penguin book #DATAGRAB on data colonialism which we hope will bring these ideas to many new readers. We're excited!! https://t.co/JcaBcsKxvy

More decisions that impact our lives will be made by automated systems without human review.
When students were downgraded by unfair AI during the pandemic, GDPR was there to challenge it. Students could rely on the right not to be subject to fully automated decision-making when the outcome impacted their futures.

Live #facialrecognition generates sensitive biometric data.
Where the stakes are high, such as in police deployments, thresholds for necessity and proportionality should also be high.
Indelible #biometric data shouldn’t be collected en masse.
Especially when the #DataGrabBill makes it easier for the police to reuse and share this data with terrifying consequences for our liberty.

The UK Met Police have announced plans to use facial recognition tech to identify shoplifters – the new boogeyman to legitimise a explosion of biometric surveillance.
At the same time as the #DataGrabBill weakens the regulatory framework by scrapping the position of the Biometrics and Surveillance Camera Commissioner and the Surveillance Camera Code.

The #DataGrabBill allows public and private bodies to share data for 'national security' and 'public safety'.
Combine biased pre-crime databases with poorly regulated #facialrecognition, we'll see an unprecedented expansion in racialised #surveillance.

“Exposing pupils to the level of risk associated with the use of biometric data to solve an arguably inexistent problem... should represent a primary concern.”
The #DataGrabBill will put children at risk of harm from the collection of their indelible biometric data.

The #DataGrabBill ignores a critical concern for privacy: the rise of biometrics.
It leaves surveillance tech like facial recognition and CCTV open for police and local authorities to use unhindered by effective oversight or data rights.

👁️ Britain is an 'omni-surveillance society' 👁️
The words of the Biometrics and Surveillance Commissioner – a post that’ll be abolished by the #DataGrabBill.
Advances in #facialrecognition tech without proper oversight and a political will to double its use in policing means innocent people will be subjected to authoritarian biometric #surveillance and discredited predictive #policing.

The involvement of multi-national companies like Palantir in the NHS means our most sensitive information is primed for a #DataGrab at home and abroad.
Data that'll be used for the surveillance economy at our expense.

#GDPR has been used to challenge the use of health data and illegal profiling.
Strong data protection is essential as new ways are found to profit off of us. But the #DataGrabBill will weaken our rights for data to be used for 'research purposes'.

The UK #DataGrabBill will make it easier for the State and companies to get your data, use it, share it and keep you in the dark.
It’s designed for surveillance and predatory commercial interests over our rights.
MPs waved through this attack on our data rights this week, but the fight continues as the Bill moves to the House of Lords.
