Facebook, Twitter, Google and Microsoft team up to tackle extremist content
by Alberto Cammozzo Dec. 10, 2016

Dec. 10, 2016

Digitalis Index Librorum Prohibitorum <https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/dec/05/facebook-twitter-google-…> The tech companies plan to create a shared database of ‘unique digital fingerprints’ that can identify images and videos promoting terrorism Google, Facebook, Twitter and Microsoft have pledged to work together to identify and remove extremist content on their platforms through an information-sharing initiative. The companies are to create a shared database of unique digital fingerprints – known as “hashes” – for images and videos that promote terrorism. This could include recruitment videos or violent terrorist imagery or memes. When one company identifies and removes such a piece of content, the others will be able to use the hash to identify and remove the same piece of content from their own network. “We hope this collaboration will lead to greater efficiency as we continue to enforce our policies to help curb the pressing global issue of terrorist content online,” said the companies in a statement.

Regarding the Report of the Presidential Commission on Enhancing National Cybersecurity
by Alberto Cammozzo Dec. 7, 2016

Dec. 7, 2016

Herb Lin, uno degli autori del recente rapporto US sulla Cybersecurity riassume quello che c'è nel report: - la cybersecurity è carente per via di una market failure. - IoT dirimerà la questione sulla liability del software (ad es. il tostapane IoT che brucia la casa) - la regulation serve, specie se non vengono seguite le linee guida. Mi pare un punto di vista interessante e utile anche in UE. <https://www.lawfareblog.com/regarding-report-presidential-commission-enhanc…> [] >From my own perspective, it’s worth calling attention to a number of salient points that are implied but not explicitly stated in the report. * The market has failed to provide the United States with the cybersecurity posture that it needs. Indeed, if this were not true, the commission would not have been necessary in the first place. In my view, market failure is reflected in two ways—one easier to fix, the other harder. * The first aspect of market failure is that individual entities do not do all that they should be doing to provide for their own cybersecurity needs—they don’t realize the scope and nature of the threats they face, they don’t know how to respond to those threats, they have higher and more immediate priorities for action, and so on. The report thus emphasizes ways for citizens and private sector entities to increase awareness and to plan for their cybersecurity needs using the NIST cybersecurity framework <https://www.nist.gov/cyberframework>. * The second aspect of market failure is that if these individual entities did do all that they needed to do to provide for their own cybersecurity needs (or more precisely, all that they could reasonably be expected to do), the resulting cybersecurity posture of the nation would be better than it is today. However, that posture would still be inadequate from a national perspective because of the interdependencies between these entities—the very concept of critical infrastructure rests on this premise. The report thus points out that the U.S. government has ultimate responsibility for defending the nation’s critical infrastructure, acknowledging that there are some cyber threats to the nation that the private sector working alone cannot be expected to handle. This second aspect of market failure is much harder to address than the first, because it is not in any entity’s self-interest to do for the nation more than it needs to do for itself. []

First settlement reached under Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act
by Alberto Cammozzo Dec. 7, 2016

Dec. 7, 2016

<http://www.biometricupdate.com/201612/first-settlement-reached-under-illino…> December 6, 2016 - Last week, a judge in Cook County Circuit Court in Chicago issued final approval for a $1.5 million settlement between L.A. Tan Enterprises Inc. and a class of the franchise’s customers who claim it failed to properly handle their biometric information, according to a report by Bloomberg Law <https://bol.bna.com/first-settlement-reached-under-illinois-biometric-law/>. It is the first settlement reached under Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act, which requires companies to gain consent before collecting a person’s biometric data. According to reports, the L.A. Tan franchise used fingerprint technology rather than a key fob to identify its customers in a membership database. The lawsuit claimed L.A. Tan did not obtain written consent from customers to use this data, or provide information about how it would store their biometric data and when, if ever, that data might be destroyed if customers dropped their membership, the franchise closed or other circumstances arose. Under the settlement, L.A. Tan will use the $1.5 million fund to put processes in place to comply with the Illinois statute or destroy all biometric data it still holds and pay each class member who filed a claim with a check for $125. A dozen lawsuits have been brought under the Illinois law including suits against Facebook, Google and Snapchat related to the way its facial recognition algorithm suggests users tag people in photos. The suits, which are pending in federal court in Northern California, accuse the companies of failing to notify users that their facial recognition software was collecting biometric data.
