The New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) is pressing the City Council to roll back restrictions on facial recognition technology in the name of public safety, igniting a fierce battle over privacy, civil liberties, and police transparency.

Facial recognition at the border may begin with non-citizens, but the data systems built to support it do not recognize the same limitations. The architecture being deployed – powered by Palantir algorithms and Anduril hardware, underwritten by federal dollars – presents a profound civil liberties challenge for everyone within U.S. jurisdiction.

Everyone’s jumping on the MCP bandwagon—but is it really an “open standard”? I took a closer look at what’s missing, why it matters, and what we risk if we skip the hard parts of standardization. If you’re watching AI infra, you’ll want to read this.

The proliferation of biometric injection attacks has significant implications for trust in user authentication. Trust is a cornerstone of any system that relies on user interaction, and when that trust is eroded, the entire system can be undermined.

Digital ID is a shitty idea. ID cards were a shitty idea under Tony Blair, but this is even shittier. And more sinister.

STYLOMETRY is a silent sniper – your unique "writing hash" will give you away, even if you master all the software. Sentence length, syntax, keywords, mistakes, mouse movement – that's digital DNA. A mobile app with a local LLM that does real-time paraphrasing, mixes registers, breaks rhythm, and creates the "everyone and no one" style is the dream. You write, you blend in. #PrivacyMatters #DigitalIdentity #Privacy #CyberSecurity​

Było ostatnio o zaawansowanym browser/device fingerprinting. Ale STYLOMETRIA to cichy snajper – Twój pisarski „unikalny hash” zdradzi Cię nawet, gdy ogarniesz cały soft. Długość zdań, składnia, słowa-klucze, błędy, sposób poruszania się myszką – to cyfrowe DNA. Marzy się mobilna apka z lokalnym LLM-em, która robi realtime parafrazę, miesza rejestry, łamie rytm i tworzy styl „wszyscy i nikt”. Piszesz Ty, a wyglądasz jak wszyscy. #PrivacyMatters #DigitalIdentity #Prywatność #CyberSecurity

Masz VPN, zmieniony user-agent, prywatną przeglądarkę – a mimo to serwer wie, kim jesteś?
Bo dziś identyfikacja to coś więcej niż ciasteczka. W grze są JA3, JA4, PeetPrint, fingerprinting HTTP/2 od Akamai, kolejność nagłówków, ALPN, WebGL, fonty, język systemu…
Prywatność nie kończy się na adresie IP.

I'm curating a series for OGR: Will #HumanRights guide tech development?

First article: Grace Mutung’u explores how the adoption of #digitalidentity is excluding vulnerable groups in #Kenya and #Uganda creating a governance gap.

We need to govern tech, not be governed by it!

In dit NRC-artikel deel ik mijn ernstige zorgen over de risico's en zwakheden van de Europese digitale identiteits portemonnee.

[EN] In an article in the Dutch national newspaper NRC today, I share my serious concerns about the risks and weaknesses of the European digital identity wallet.

Bluesky is facing a surge in impersonation scams. Users are being tricked by fake profiles mimicking tech personalities. Despite efforts to remove these accounts, the decentralized nature of Bluesky makes it challenging to manage. The platform is exploring new verification methods to combat this issue and protect its users.
