#google just emailed me about biometric verification

[shamera]

Internet went down this morning and I kinda luxuriated in that for a while before texting hubby to tell him I might be offline today as the internet was down, and he checked the network and told me to just restart the internet. I said fineeee in a little bit and it's back and suddenly I can feel the weight of stress again.

#isn't that. funny. #i'm going camping again in june but as of last year the cabin now has internet #which is. you know. yaaay. #one day i will just suffocate myself in the bottom of a lake and that will be that #it's not like i can't do offline things together #it's not like people can't contact me without the internet anymore #i'm still getting calls from people i don't know even just the last hour #but the smug satisfaction while the internet was down.. that surprised me #i never really thought about how i felt like there's constantly eyes on me #with the internet constantly in the background #not WATCHING but it'll still see every mistake #on that note i would also like no one to be able to find my phone number unless i gave it out personally #google just emailed me about biometric verification #each day feels like a creeping nightmare

Week 7 - Tutorial Summary & Reflection

Context We were asked to read a few articles relating to government surveillance and think of arguments both for and against it. In class, each student was assigned to either “for” surveillance or “against” it (the student did not choose the side they were on).

I was chosen in the team to argue FOR surveillance.

My Notes from class

Pro surveillance

Why the government should collect data?

·         Identify people of interest to keep the community safe

·         Defend against terrorism

·         Smarter planning for infrastructure

·         Innocent people shouldn’t have much to hide…

·         Missing people 3000 children found

·         Reduce crime rates

·         Safety more important than privacy

Method:

·         Surveillance purposes only – AND only Government institutions

·         Scope of data:

         o   Phone metadata

         o   Internet usage

         o   Email addresses

         o   Facial Recognition

         o   Location

         o   Criminal Record

 Thinking about ways to address common concerns

·         People don't trust the government to manage data 

         o   Keep access management logs

         o   Air-gapped facilities

·         How many people have access to this data? – This should be logged (see above point) and in compliance with the principle of least privilege

·         Inaccuracies with the technology

         o   Only use technology that doesn’t look for certain identifiers that prone                  to bias (including skin colour, gender etc).

         o   Need to be able to test software for bias and minimise it

·         Repurposing of information

·         Privacy concerns

         o   This solution would NOT BE MASS Surveillance

 Final Arguments for the first round of debate

Terrorism, Crime rate down

·         Type1/Type 2 errors

·         Invest in lots of R&D

·         Regulate constantly

·         The system can only provide information and NOT take law into its own              hands

Missing person

Privacy

 The other team started the debate with (we had no time to come up with counter-arguments - these are just my personal notes before speaking - although some arguments were created on the fly...)

What they said?

·         Blanket data retention laws

         o    

·         People are already known to authorities

         o   What about terrorist attacks? This might be true for criminals but not                    necessarily terrorists - esp with the new threat of “homegrown terror”.

·         Privacy and data misuse

·         Can we trust the government when we don’t know what they’re doing?

         o  

·         Long-term effects of collecting biometric data is not known

         o    

 Round 2

·         Good intentions now… what about the future?

         o  This problem should be minimised as the “people” actually vote in the                   government

·         Misidentify people

         o   The system only provides information… Does not act on the                                  information so it will still go through verification processes and                              human hands

         o   Utilise an unbiased algorithm that doesn’t look for certain indicators                      (including skin colour, etc)

         o   Heavily regulated and tested

·         Privacy issue

         o   Google… FaceBook… Not the government??

·         Potential for misuse

·         Focussing on everyone (not just “criminals”)

         o  

·         Why store data for a few years?

         o   When looking at threats like terrorist attacks/plots and the like, to get a                complete picture of the story you need to be able to see not just super                  recent data, but older data as well.

 Learnings When asked which group “won” the debate and had the most convincing argument, I naturally said it was my team, which brings me to an interesting learning. If you are fighting for a particular point of view, you HAVE to believe it. As such, no matter what position you are in you MUST consider that you have an unconscious bias FOR what you’re doing/arguing. Especially if the scenario is for a job which means that you have a vested interest in the success of what you’re doing. This biases you (cognitive dissonance), to minimise this sometimes you need to take a step back, remove yourself from the position you are in, and think about the issue at hand.
