Festival della Tecnologia (Torino, 7-10 Novembre)
by J.C. DE MARTIN Nov. 2, 2019

Nov. 2, 2019

Buonasera a tutti, mi permetto di segnalarvi che a Torino dal 7 all'11 novembre si terrà il Festival della Tecnologia, una manifestazione che il Politecnico di Torino (insieme a 50 partner) ha organizzato per celebrare il suo 160° anniversario. Parliamo di oltre 150 incontri con oltre 300 relatori (tra cui alcuni iscritti a questa lista), una manifestazione profondamente interdisciplinare, con anche il contributo della letteratura, dell'arte, della musica, del teatro, perché la tecnologia non la capiamo senza il contributo di tutti i saperi umani. Il programma è online qui: www.festivaltecnologia.it, mentre il PDF del programma cartaceo (qualcuno magari lo preferisce) è qui: https://www.festivaltecnologia.it/sites/default/files/inline-files/Guida%20… Ovviamente il digitale ha un ruolo importante nel programma del Festival, motivo per cui mi è sembrato opportuno segnalarvi l'iniziativa. Buona serata, un caro saluto, juan carlos

Sidewalk Labs document reveals company’s early vision for data collection, tax powers, criminal justice - The Globe and Mail
by Alberto Cammozzo Nov. 1, 2019

Nov. 1, 2019

La "città del futuro"... <https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-sidewalk-labs-document-rev…> [...] To carry out its vision and planned services, the book states Sidewalk wanted to control its area much like Disney World does in Florida, where in the 1960s it “persuaded the legislature of the need for extraordinary exceptions.” This could include granting Sidewalk taxation powers. “Sidewalk will require tax and financing authority to finance and provide services, including the ability to impose, capture and reinvest property taxes,” the book said. The company would also create and control its own public services, including charter schools, special transit systems and a private road infrastructure. Sidewalk’s early data-driven vision also extended to public safety and criminal justice. The book mentions both the data-collection opportunities for police forces (Sidewalk notes it would ask for local policing powers similar to those granted to universities) and the possibility of “an alternative approach to jail,” using data from so-called “root-cause assessment tools.” This would guide officials in determining a response when someone is arrested, such as sending someone to a substance abuse centre. The overall criminal justice system and policing of serious crimes and emergencies would be “likely to remain within the purview of the host government’s police department," however. Data collection plays a central role throughout the book. Early on, the company notes that a Sidewalk neighbourhood would collect real-time position data “for all entities” – including people. The company would also collect a “historical record of where things have been" and "about where they are going.” Furthermore, unique data identifiers would be generated for “every person, business or object registered in the district,” helping devices communicate with each other. There would be a quid pro quo to sharing more data with Sidewalk, however. The document describes a tiered level of services, where people willing to share data can access certain perks and privileges not available to others. Sidewalk visitors and residents would be "encouraged to add data about themselves and connect their accounts, either to take advantage of premium services like unlimited wireless connectivity or to make interactions in the district easier,” it says. Shoshana Zuboff, the Harvard University professor emerita whose book The Age of Surveillance Capitalism investigates the way Alphabet and other big-tech companies are reshaping the world, called the document’s revelations “damning.” The community Alphabet sought to build when it launched Sidewalk Labs, she said, was like a “for-profit China” that would “use digital infrastructure to modify and direct social and political behaviour.” While Sidewalk has since moved away from many of the details in its book, Prof. Zuboff contends that Alphabet tends to "say what needs be said to achieve commercial objectives, while specifically camouflaging their actual corporate strategy.” According to the document, personalization would increase as users contributed more data, leading to "more complete or personalized services from Project Sidewalk in return.” An example states that people choosing to share “in-home fire safety sensor” data could receive advice on health and safety related to air quality, or provide additional information to first responders in case of an emergency. Those choosing to remain anonymous would not be able to access all of the area’s services: Automated taxi services would not be available to anonymous users, and some merchants might be unable to accept cash, the book warns. The document also describes reputation tools that would lead to a “new currency for community co-operation,” effectively establishing a social credit system. Sidewalk could use these tools to “hold people or businesses accountable” while rewarding good behaviour, such as by rewarding a business’s good customer service with an easier or cheaper renewal process on its licence. This “accountability system based on personal identity” could also be used to make financial decisions. "A borrower’s stellar record of past consumer behaviour could make a lender, for instance, more likely to back a risky transaction, perhaps with the interest rates influenced by digital reputation ratings,” it says. The company wrote that it would own many of the sensors it deployed in the community, foreshadowing a battle over data control that has loomed over the Toronto project.
