  17. "Meta’s surveillance isn’t limited to your online activity. The company also encourages businesses to send them data about your offline purchases and interactions. Even deleting your Facebook and Instagram accounts won’t stop Meta from harvesting your personal data. Meta in 2018 admitted to collecting information about non-users, including their contact details and browsing history."

  24. In light of /gestures at everything, it’s now more important than ever that we demand better #privacy protections in the US! Rep. Lori #Trahan is calling for public input on updating privacy law and reforming the #PrivacyAct: trahan.house.gov/news/document

  25. #Democratic Senators Call for #PrivacyAct Reform in Response to #DOGE #Takeover

    The #PrivacyActModernizationAct would update 1974 legislation for the modern age, restricting government use of personal data and introducing new penalties, including prison time, for violators.

  27. “There appears to be no precedent with similar facts,” Judge Deborah Boardman for the U.S. District Court of Maryland, a Biden appointee, wrote in her opinion granting a temporary block on DOGE’s access to education and government personnel records. “This case involves the alleged unauthorized disclosure of millions of records. Even under existing precedent, this appears to be unlawful" #privacyact

  28. Elon Musk’s #DOGE Is Being Sued Under the #Privacy Act: What to Know

    At least eight ongoing lawsuits related to the so-called Department of Government Efficiency’s alleged access to sensitive data hinge on the Watergate-inspired #PrivacyAct of 1974. But it’s not airtight.

  29. "The #PrivacyAct prohibits an agency from disclosing someone’s records—even within the agency—unless that person approves in writing or the agency meets one of the law’s 12 exceptions. Most of the exceptions deal with fairly specific circumstances...

    But there are also two broad, vague exceptions..."

  30. #EFF Sues #OPM, #DOGE and #Musk for Endangering the #Privacy of Millions
    #Lawsuit Argues Defendants Violated the #PrivacyAct by Disclosing Sensitive Data
    The foundation wants the court to cut their access to the Office of Personnel Management systems. The lawsuit also names Acting Director #CharlesEzell as defendants. DOGE's "unchecked access" on its own puts federal employees at risk of privacy violations and even political pressure and blackmail.

  31. Good to finally see some movement on #privacy #PrivacyAct reforms, with the right to opt out and right to be forgotten to be enacted into Australian legislation. Small business to also be subject to the Privacy Act.

  32. We really need to get the balance right on privacy reforms: reforms are sorely needed but we also need to retain *exemptions for journalism* and for journalists.

    Keep the journalism exemption.

    Don’t limit it. #privacyact

  33. CW: Aus privacy act feelpinion

    We urgently need to rewrite Australia’s paper-thin #privacyact and set up a new regulator that’s firmly on the side of citizens.

    Australia has been standing still on this as the power of data aggregators has gone past concerning, straight through dangerous without slowing down, to overwhelming and on.

    This latest review is still too weak but I do rather like this line on requirements for consent, which must be:

    “voluntary, informed, current, specific and unambiguous”.

  34. Australians able to opt out of targeted ads and erase their data under proposed privacy reforms
    amp.theguardian.com/australia-

    This appears to be inspired by the GDPR protections in the EU without being a total copy and giving us the same level of protection.

    Looks like the usual suspects are opposing this proposed improvement to privacy, transparency, and accountability: political advertising and big business represented by the Business Council of Australia.
