Surveillancesoftware voor opsporing kindermisbruik in de EU is zeer gebrekkig, geeft de fabrikant toe www.ftm.nl/artikelen/so... via @FTM_nl
Follow the Money vroeg de Europese Commissie om inzage in de technische beschrijvingen van Thorns screening software, genaamd Safer. De Commissie weigerde dit verzoek op grond van het argument dat dit het commerciële belang van de stichting te veel zou schaden. 

Na overleg met Thorn verstrekte de Commissie, deels zwartgelakte, beleidsdocumenten en notulen van een bijeenkomst tussen Commissie-ambtenaren en de stichting. Een document met de naam ‘Tegengaan van vals-positieven’ werd niet gedeeld. 

Follow the Money diende hierover een klacht in bij de Europese Ombudsman. Die oordeelde dat de terughoudendheid van de Commissie in het openbaar maken van documenten niet in lijn is met de transparantieregels van de EU. Toegang tot de documenten is van belang om ‘burgers in staat te stellen effectief deel te nemen aan een besluitvormingsproces dat zeer waarschijnlijk hun dagelijks leven direct zal beïnvloeden door hun recht op privacy te beperken’, aldus Ombudsman Emily O'Reilly.

EU's #CSA, #ChatControl legislation is exposing private video conference calls, (e.g. Zoom/Jitsi/Teams) to indiscriminate third party scanning. As the digital medicine is becoming more popular, appointments with your doctor is taking place with an uninvited 3rd party presence. #StopChatControl
EU's CSA legislation jeopardizes medical privacy of the people. Digital medicine is becoming extremely common and online video consultation with a doctor & patient are not private if the legislation is adopted. Error prone AI is dangerous especially when the patient is suffering pain in body parts AI easily mistakes as CSAM material.
