    By exploiting a vulnerability in a process known as beamforming feedback information, researchers mapped people’s physical characteristics and identified them with an accuracy rate of 99.5 percent. Even when individuals changed their gait or carried objects like backpacks and crates, the system registered an accuracy rate between 50 to 60 percent.

    “We have shown robust identity inference with common-of-the-shelf hardware which is already in widespread adoption in many homes and public areas,” the team wrote in their paper. “With this hardware making its way into millions of homes, the privacy concerns are severe.” https://trib.al/iQUcP1m

    Useammilla suomalaisilla verkkosivuilla ilmeni tänään ongelmia latautumisessa.

    Tällä hetkellä aiemmin ilmoitetuista palveluista ainakin MTV Katsomon, Veikkauksen ja Elisan verkkosivut toimivat jälleen.

    The United States is having something of a national referendum on mass surveillance as of late. Embodied most infamously by video surveillance company Flock Safety, Americans from all walks of life are waging war against the proliferation of the company’s automatic license plate readers (ALPR), which the ACLU warns now number in the tens of thousands.

    Plenty of communities are organizing campaigns to out-muscle municipal leaders or their cheerleaders on the local police force, and by-and-large, they’re working. Whether in rural towns or sprawling cities, activists who can mobilize citizens to flood council meetings and hold picket signs are finding success. Perhaps most prominently, the Los Angeles Police Department recently allowed its three-year contract with Flock to expire, citing democratic pushback as a significant pressure point.
