Facebook Researchers Hope to Bring Together Two Foes: Encryption and Ads
Facebook is bulking up a team of artificial intelligence researchers, including a key hire from Microsoft, to study ways of analyzing encrypted data without decrypting it, the company confirmed. The research could allow Facebook to target ads based on encrypted messages on its WhatsApp messenger, or to encrypt the data it collects on billions of users without hurting its ad-targeting capabilities, outside experts say.
Facebook is one of several technology giants, including cloud computing providers Microsoft, Amazon and Google, now researching an emerging field known as homomorphic encryption. Researchers hope the technology will allow companies to analyze personal information, including medical records and financial data, while keeping the information encrypted
Because we can? Because encryption equals criminal?
The Cryptocurrency Surveillance Provision Buried in the Infrastructure Bill is a Disaster for Digital Privacy
The forthcoming Senate draft of Biden's infrastructure bill—a 2,000+ page bill designed to update the United States’ roads, highways, and digital infrastructure—contains a poorly crafted provision that could create new surveillance requirements for many within the blockchain ecosystem. This could include developers and others who do not control digital assets on behalf of users.
While the language is still evolving, the proposal would seek to expand the definition of “broker” under section 6045(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to include anyone who is “responsible for and regularly providing any service effectuating transfers of digital assets” on behalf of another person. These newly defined brokers would be required to comply with IRS reporting requirements for brokers, including filing form 1099s with the IRS. That means they would have to collect user data, including users’ names and addresses.
Utility overrules privacy?

Amazon will pay you $10 in credit for your palm print biometrics
Zack Whittaker reports:
How much is your palm print worth? If you ask Amazon, it’s about $10 in promotional credit if you enroll your palm prints in its checkout-free stores and link it to your Amazon account.
Last year, Amazon introduced its new biometric palm print scanners, Amazon One, so customers can pay for goods in some stores by waving their palm prints over one of these scanners.

Law Society Lawtech and Ethics Principles July 2021
UK Law Society – Law Society Lawtech and Ethics Principles, July 2021 – “The world has evolved – it is changing still. By some estimates there have been 5.3 years of digital transformation in the last year. Thankfully, our jurisdiction is one of flexibility where the regulatory environment has enabled the legal services community to adapt to challenges, serve the public and provide trust in the wider economy. However, digital transformation can only be successful when the capabilities of people are built and the functionality, limits and benefits of tools are understood. Over the last year, we have interviewed the country’s largest law firms to understand how they have transformed, assessed solutions and navigated ethical considerations. We cannot thank the contributors enough for so willingly sharing insights and expertise with us. This paper’s main aim is to empower our profession to understand the main considerations they should make when designing, developing or deploying Lawtech, and aims to encourage greater dialogue between the profession and Lawtech providers in the development of future products and services. Although applicable to the whole profession, we hope that the framework, guidance and model procurement process in the paper will be of particular value to those firms and sole practitioners who do not have much experience of procuring Lawtech, and want support on how to get started. The paper helps solicitors to unlock the benefits brought by digital transformation by providing a starting point to assess the compatibility of Lawtech products and services against professional duties. Likewise, it also aims to help Lawtech providers understand the regulatory parameters of solicitors’ practice, embed trust and build market ready solutions…”
