Colorado has significantly scaled back its AI Act, dropping many of the governance requirements that once made it the most demanding AI law in the country.

“Our #privacy #law is dangerously out of date. It was largely drafted before the internet, let alone the age of #ArtificialIntelligence," he said.

"If you can update our #PrivacyLaw, that's probably the single biggest step you could take to protect #Australians from their personal information being used against them in the age of #AI." — Professor #EdSantow

Digital driver's licenses have been around for a while now. When they first came out, privacy groups expressed concerns. I haven't heard much since then, though, and NY just rolled out their version of it.

Anyone have any recommended resources (recent) or thoughts about the current benefits or risks of downloading an app and uploading my drivers license into it?

Inotiv settles cybersecurity class action — here's what boards and executives should know.

The company filed an 8-K today confirming a settlement agreement resolving litigation stemming from its August 2025 data breach. PHI and PII were among the data potentially acquired.

The settlement, if court-approved, provides class members with:
• Compensation for lost time and out-of-pocket expenses
• Recovery for extraordinary losses
• An alternative flat cash payment
• Two years of credit monitoring

Attorneys' fees are capped at $275,000. The company anticipates full insurance coverage for all settlement payments.

No admission of liability. Three federal cases were dismissed and refiled in Indiana state court before this resolution.

This is a useful case study in how post-breach litigation tends to consolidate and settle — and why cyber liability insurance structuring matters from day one.

🤯 Your face is data. And if you don't know who owns it, you're already at risk. #Deepfakes, facial recognition, and #biometrics. These technologies are blurring the line between who you are and who controls your data. But is the law keeping up? We break down the fight for digital rights! ✊

We always knew this was coming.
Next, bans for this kind of medication.
This is no surprise from the people that force children to carry and birth their rapists babies.

Laws are only as strong as their enforcement.

This is the core problem with most privacy laws. We need to demand better laws, with stronger, faster enforcement mechanisms.
