me and my shadow - take control of your data
💡 What are digital traces?
Through your computer, mobile phone, and other digital devices, you leave behind hundreds of digital traces (also called data traces) every day: bits of information about you that are created, stored, and collected.
When your digital traces are put together to create stories about you or profiles of you, these become your digital shadows. These can give others huge insight into your life; and they can also be totally wrong. Either way, once they're out there, they are almost impossible to control....

Digital “Health Passport” unveiled in Ireland
Many were told the dystopian idea of health passports were a myth.
At the start of the lockdowns, those who were worried about their civil liberties being eroded and their movements and history being tracked and traced, were told that the whole idea of “health passports” were nothing but a conspiracy theory.
Yet, Ireland-based Roqu Group has launched the pilot version of a “health passport” to help with COVID-19 testing. Health Passport Ireland is a digital health passport and will be available to businesses and the general public.

Covid-19 strengthens the case for digital ID cards
With safeguards for privacy and security, they make government work better
THE PANDEMIC has had few silver linings. One is that a huge range of human activities have moved online far more smoothly than almost anyone expected. Businesses have let their white-collar staff work from home for half a year now. People are attending yoga classes remotely. Brits are appearing in court digitally; New Yorkers are tying the knot online.
Yet as they migrate to the virtual world, many people are discovering that they do not have the right documents to prove their identity. Businesses use credit cards, in effect, as a rough-and-ready proof that people are who they say. Governments cannot do that.

Your digital privacy is under attack. Can anything be done to protect it?
A committee from the Council of Europe is concerned with the use of technology for mass surveillance programs.
Intelligence services around the world should be kept in check by an international body with the power to make sure governments don't misuse personal data for surveillance purposes, said the Council of Europe's data protection committee chairs in a joint statement.
Countries should agree at an international level on the extent to which the surveillance carried out by intelligence services can be authorized and under which conditions, recommended the committee. The agreement should come as a legal tool that could be enforced independently by a data protection body that is yet to be created.
The European human rights organization said that calls for better data protection at an international level are especially relevant in times of crisis, when circumstances provide governments with an opportunity to lawfully restrict citizens' privacy rights.

The Pandemic's Digital Shadow
The pandemic is fueling digital repression worldwide.
The coronavirus pandemic is accelerating a dramatic decline in global internet freedom. For the 10th consecutive year, users have experienced an overall deterioration in their rights, and the phenomenon is contributing to a broader crisis for democracy worldwide.
In the COVID-19 era, connectivity is not a convenience, but a necessity. Virtually all human activities—commerce, education, health care, politics, socializing—seem to have moved online. But the digital world presents distinct challenges for human rights and democratic governance. State and nonstate actors in many countries are now exploiting opportunities created by the pandemic to shape online narratives, censor critical speech, and build new technological systems of social control.
Three notable trends punctuated an especially dismal year for internet freedom. First, political leaders used the pandemic as a pretext to limit access to information. Authorities often blocked independent news sites and arrested individuals on spurious charges of spreading false news. In many places, it was state officials and their zealous supporters who actually disseminated false and misleading information with the aim of drowning out accurate content, distracting the public from ineffective policy responses, and scapegoating certain ethnic and religious communities. Some states shut off connectivity for marginalized groups, extending and deepening existing digital divides. In short, governments around the world failed in their obligation to promote a vibrant and reliable online public sphere.

Tech coalition working to create digital COVID-19 vaccination passport
A coalition of health and technology organizations are working to develop a digital COVID-19 vaccination passport to allow businesses, airlines and countries to check if people have received the vaccine.
The Vaccination Credential Initiative, announced on Thursday, is formulating technology to confirm vaccinations in the likelihood that some governments will mandate people provide proof of their shots in order to enter the nation.
The organization hopes the technology will allow people to "demonstrate their health status to safely return to travel, work, school and life while protecting their data privacy."
The initiative, which includes members like Microsoft, Oracle and U.S. nonprofit Mayo Clinic, is using the work from member Commons Project’s international digital document that verifies a person has tested negative for COVID-19, the Financial Times reported.

Tracing Paper
Color printers mark printouts with barely visible codes that are used to track down currency counterfeiters, as well as everyone else.
In 2017, when a National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblower wanted to extract classified government documents from her work computer, she sought refuge in the printed page. Maybe she thought physical paper would be safer from digital surveillance than an email. So she printed the documents at her office and then mailed them to The Intercept, which broke the news with the headline, “Top-Secret NSA Report Details Russian Hacking Effort Days Before 2016 Election” on June 5th, 2017 at 3:44 p.m. eastern time. A few hours later, the US Department of Justice officially announced their arrest of Reality Winner, a former US Air Force officer and NSA contractor.
What happened? The Intercept contacted the NSA on May 30th asking them to verify the documents. But by sending the scanned images that included each page’s wrinkles and folds, as opposed to retyping the information, the journalists shared more than they intended to: they sent the NSA the pale yellow tracking dots that are embedded in every piece of paper that is printed by a color laser printer. The dots form rectangular grids of rows and columns, with each dot’s position corresponding to the value of a date, time, or printer model.
Together, the rows and columns constitute a machine-readable bitmap known as a machine identification code (MIC). MIC grids repeat across the page so that even if only a shred of a page is recovered, the MIC on that shred can still be decoded and traced. While neither the Justice Department’s nor the FBI’s statements about Winner’s arrest mentioned MICs, security experts strongly suggested that they played a role in helping the agencies identify her and, at the very least, corroborated other evidence linking Winner to the leak.

Comments about this program were expressed in a press conference called by the Department of Registration of Persons today.
The Commissioner General of the Department of Registration of Persons, Viyani Gunathilake,
Currently, only bio data is used to obtain the National Identity Card. We need to add biometric data to bio data. For example, we can analyze fingerprints, blood, facial images, and so on. These are what we call biometric data. In the future, we will actually add this biometric data to those bio data and start issuing the national identity card. Currently, it is under an Indian aid, now all the business has been planned and now there is an opportunity to choose suppliers. Then you and I have to re-register all of us.

According to a blog post, citing the International Data Corporation (#IDC)Digital Trust Index, there are “trillions of dollars of opportunities” around the world, but a higher level of “digital trust” as a universal value is what’s missing in order to unlock this potential.
The #WEF further talks the idea up by linking it with better security and privacy, and such principles like ethics, fairness, and inclusivity.
The article then states (without mentioning numbers) that consumers said they would pick banks and financial firms as the most trustworthy entities to create and maintain a system that controls their identities online.

On the frontlines of technological leaps are often people in power - governments, police, intelligence agencies and militaries - trying to use new research to advance the ways in which they operate.
But what happens when these powers aren’t used for good? Who can keep the powerful in check in a global #digital age?
In this episode of The Big Picture, we sit down with architect and investigator Eyal Weizman to talk about how Israel uses #urban planning to expand its control of the West Bank, and why he decided to start a crime-fighting team of architects, journalists and coders called Forensic #Architecture to hold governments to account.
This was one of our favourite episodes so far, because of the way Eyal thinks about his craft - architecture - and the dark side that exists to every profession - especially when structures of power attempt to co-opt it to serve their own purposes.
