@reflex Yes, I completely agree
In many ways, it's about legally enforcing consent for usage and association. I wouldn't want my profile picture to be stolen and used for advertising for example. And if it were, I could use its copyright to enforce my consent on this and deny this type of usage of it.

@reflex Exactly. All the data-scrapers around need a reminder of that.

@carnage4life @drwho That sounds like a quite spectacular data privacy nightmare.

@bb2101 @haubles Welcome to Mastodon Ben!

I wrote this list of small tips for newcomers that you might find helpful: https://infosec.exchange/@Em0nM4stodon/109323504324459171

You must ask for consent before you collect someone's information or do something to them.

Informing them after the fact, then offering them to delete the information, isn't respecting consent. And in many cases, isn't legal either.

@xgranade @dalias Thanks for the warning about this

@wtrmt @josephcox @brucelawson Most privacy laws require to place an official complaint for enforcement at the individual level.

Anyone who had their data collected by a third-party like this without prior notification and consent, and has a local privacy law protecting against this, can likely place a complaint. It's often very easy to do.

Here's a short guide I wrote to help with this: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/activism/toolbox/tip-report-privacy-violations/

Are you using Signal to conduct job interviews and work meetings?

If yes, what do you like about it?
If not, why not?

@josephcox @brucelawson This is infringing so many privacy laws...

An excellent article by Jean-Christophe Bélisle-Pipon on OpenAI's reaction to the Tumbler Ridge tragedy:

OpenAI’s safety pledges in the wake of Tumbler Ridge aren’t AI regulation — they’re surveillance

OpenAI’s safety pledges in the wake of Tumbler Ridge aren’t AI regulation — they’re surveillance

What Canada’s response to AI protocols in the wake of the Tumbler Ridge tragedy gets wrong, and what durable governance actually requires.

The Conversation (theconversation.com)

"True AI regulation asks whether a model might facilitate or amplify harmful ideation through its interaction patterns. It asks how the system is built, what it’s tested for and what obligations attach to its deployment.

The current arrangement asks none of these questions. Instead, it builds a pipeline from private AI interactions to law enforcement, administered by a corporation, governed by proprietary policy.

I call this the surveillance substitution: a governance vacuum gets filled not with democratic regulation, but with corporate surveillance of users. It is not regulation of AI. It is regulation of the people who use AI, conducted by the AI company itself, with the police as the endpoint."

@labellaragassa @privacyguides Thank you!

@emilymbender @alex @404media This is amazing! I'm really looking forward to listening to it later today
