IAPP doesn't respect its Members
The IAPP suspended my certifications for paying my membership dues on the day they were due — despite its own promised grace period. Members deserve better.

Weekly output: Bluesky verification, brain-computer interface, Xfinity Mobile, resisting FTC commissioners, Comcast pain points
RIO DE JANEIRO–The organizers of Web Summit Rio have once again seen fit to have me moderate panels at their conference here (with my hotel paid for and my airfare to be reimbursed). And while last year I got away with only doing one panel, this year I have three: a discussion about Web3 possibilities Monday, a session on data privacy Tuesday, and a panel about AI in advertising on Wednesday.
4/21/2025: Bluesky Adds Blue Checks to Verified Accounts, But They’re Not for Sale, PCMag
Bluesky’s management continues to impress me with their thoughtful responses to problems that arise with that decentralized platform.
4/23/2025: I Controlled a Wheelchair With My Mind (Well, I Think I Did), PCMag
The research for this happened three weeks ago at NTT’s Upgrade 2025 conference in San Francisco (with that Japanese telco covering my airfare and lodging), but writing this post took some time. And then my editor had to find time of her own to edit this between all of the news breaking this month.
4/23/2025: Xfinity Mobile’s New Premium Unlimited Plan Doubles Data Without a Price Hike, PCMag
I felt a little confused covering a story about Comcast that did not involve a service costing more–especially coming a day after T-Mobile announced a rate rewrite that looks like it will amount to a large cost increase for many users.
4/24/2025: The FTC Commissioners That Trump Wants to Fire: We’re Not Going Away, PCMag
I spent Wednesday and Thursday at the privacy trade group IAPP’s annual conference in D.C. thinking that Verge editor-in-chief Nilay Patel interviewing Rebecca Slaughter and Alvaro Bedoya, the two members of the Federal Trade Commission that Trump wants gone, would be the newsiest part. And so it was.
4/25/2025: Comcast Execs: Our Pricing Is Opaque and We Can Be Hard to Do Business With, PCMag
Because I was busy getting ready for IAPP Thursday morning, I missed the Comcast earnings call that featured executives admitting the “pain points” the company had created with its customers. Fortunately, nobody else at PCMag picked up the story before I could get to it Friday.

I’m heading to Dulles before dawn tomorrow, but not for work: I’m flying to Dallas to try to see the solar eclipse, a friend having invited people to visit for the occasion. Please wish us luck with the weather!
4/3/2024: Ad Industry Unbothered by Federal Privacy Law (Because It’ll Probably Never Happen), PCMag
I wrote this from the Interactive Advertising Bureau’s Public Policy and Legal Summit mindful of my past excessive optimism about Congress passing a comprehensive privacy law–and then Sunday brought news of another such attempt, the introduction of the American Privacy Rights Act by Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R.-Wash.) and Sen. Maria Cantwell (D.-Wash.). I would love to see this headline age as badly as the one PCMag ran above a January 2023 post of mine–“Is This the Year Congress Finally Tackles Privacy Legislation?”–but I’m not going to get my hopes up just yet.
4/3/2024: FCC to Try Again on Net-Neutrality Rules at April 25 Meeting, PCMag
Speaking of tech-policy stories that have been going on forever, I wrote about the latest twist in the net-neutrality plot: the Federal Communications Commission’s scheduled date to vote for rules reinstating strong rules along the lines of the net-neutrality regulations it passed in 2015 and then smashed the “delete” key on in 2017.
4/5/2024: In this California valley, machine vision meets grapevines, Fast Company
I did some of my most scenic reporting in Sonoma County two weeks ago to check out how one vineyard there is applying robotics and electric-vehicle technology to tend its vines in a greener way–while collecting much more data about them along the way.
4/5/2024: Facebook Really, Really Doesn’t Want You to Read This One Story, PCMag
I was going to spend Thursday afternoon writing about an exceptionally-informative panel about the hazards of age-verification requirements that I’d watched at the International Association of Privacy Professional’s Global Privacy Summit, but then I saw Bluesky lighting up with posts about Facebook not only blocking a Kansas Reflector op-ed critical of its downranking of climate-change discussions and then bulk-deleting every Facebook post sharing any link to the Reflector’s site. The story got increasingly bizarre as I exchanged e-mails with two editors at that publication–one of 39 funded around the U.S. by the nonprofit States Newsroom–while Meta limited its PR efforts to a vague and unhelpful tweet from publicist Andy Stone. Only on Saturday did it get into more specifics, in the form of a series of replies to Bluesky posts by Instagram head Adam Mosseri in which he said the problem was a phishing-site filter going awry.
4/6/2024: How manufacturing is discovering new virtuous circles as it moves toward a more circular economy, Fast Company
The last piece I wrote for the Most Innovative Companies project–I did the interview for this from National Airport on my way to Barcelona for MWC Feb. 23, then wrote and filed it from Newark Airport a few hours later–was also the last to be published.

Interessante Analyse des aktuellen Stands des #AiActs aus #Datenschutz-Sicht.
Die #DSGVO kennt Ausnahmen vom Verbot der Verwendung sensibler Daten, aber nicht für das Korrigieren von #KI-Vorurteilen und -Diskriminierung (debiasing). 🤖

Today, I took a closer look at the website of the "International Association of #Privacy Professionals" [sic] #IAPP.
Interesting news section, but #RSS feed mentioned nowhere ( it's https://iapp.org/rss/ )
#GoogleFonts, #GoogleTagManager, #cloudflare.
Accounts with #Twitter, #Instagram, #Facebook, #YouTube, but none on the #Fediverse. Except maybe the zero-posts, dead @iapp or @privacy_news (are these even legit?).
Will drop by again next year, maybe some minimal improvements by then.

Some interesting #Privacy legislation news from #IAPP:
"The wave of U.S. comprehensive state #privacy legislation that few ever thought would materialize in a calendar year has revealed itself. Comprehensive bills in #Montana and #Tennessee cleared their respective state legislatures 21 April — the first same-day passage for two state privacy bills — to join Indiana and Iowa among states to reach the finish line this year.
Both bills, which now await enactment pending governor's signature, carry likeness to existing state privacy laws with some originality.
Montana Senate Bill 384 aligns exclusively with the Connecticut Data Privacy Act after surprise amendments during the cross-chamber process. Tennessee's bill brings the most unique provisions, including enforcement that hinges on adoption of the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology's Privacy Framework.
If enacted, Montana's bill takes force 1 Oct. 2024 while Tennessee's follows 1 July 2025."

Greeting the new day with a new episode of Everyday Privacy. In this video, I talk about certifications. Should you spend money, time, and effort on an IAPP certification? The training and exam can be quite expensive. Is it worth it? #privacy #IAPP #certification #IAPPcertified #DPO

The European Parliament's Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs ("LIBE") released a draft resolution that does not look very kindly on the US attempt to support an adequacy determination under GDPR through an Executive Order. (It points out all the things it finds lacking in the US attempt at creating a new data privacy framework - no surprises here.) If this is indicative of the final outcome at the Commission (please, no wagering ;) ), Mr Schrems will be happy... and many of us will continue to work under the assumption that this is all going nowhere fast. Among the many failings noted: The US does not have a federal privacy law. #ADPPA was on the table in the last Congress. Are nudges from #POTUS at the #SOTU and from the #EU going to be sufficient to get the ball rolling again? Would any such law comprehensively address the outstanding concerns re: adequacy? Does failure to adopt such a law harm the global economic position of the US in the near term or in the long term? What other issues are raised by this development or by an eventual negative finding re: adequacy? #GDPR #adequacy #LIBE #DPF #dataprivacyframework #dataprivacy #privacy #data #personaldata #personaldataprotection #dataprotection #schremsii #schremsiii #EU #IAPP https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/LIBE-RD-740749_EN.pdf

Or the cheapest venue because they don't face any consequences for picking Texas and worry they'll lose like $500.Looking at the #IAPP who are notorious for not giving a fuck.

Will be focusing on studying for the CIPP/US this upcoming week during the winter break. If you have any resources reflecting changes to the most recent version please send them my way.

TikTok sending US customer data to China is bad, but it's a symptom of a larger problem: America has absolutely zero data privacy laws. American companies are likely offloading some of their data overseas, too. There are zero ethics in tech data practices in America, and we need it. Individuals need control over the data companies collect about them.America needs a national data privacy law like GDPR.
