#Surveillance Un homme faussement identifié par reconnaissance faciale comme suspect par la police de Londres a perdu son procès sur l'adoption de la reconnaissance faciale de masse.
La Haute Court de Londres a suivi l'avis de la Metropolitan Police, disant qu'il y a assez de protection contre des abus.
La police scanne les visages des passants, 3 millions en 2025, et compare leurs données biométriques avec des milliers de gens sur des listes, c'est la seule police en Europe qui déploie du scan de masse.
Thompson dit qu'il fera appel pour protéger les Londoniens de la surveillance de masse, et d'être comme lui mal identifié, détenu et menacé d'arrestation.
Le combat contre la reconnaissance faciale en live est loin d'être terminé.https://www.courthousenews.com/live-facial-recognition-critics-lose-uk-court-challenge/

VERIFICATION D'AGE & Interdiction réseaux sociaux aux moins de 16 ans
14 janvier 2026
Momotchi ingénieure en électronique, bannie 12 fois par Twitter pendant le Covid
La vérification d'âge est une porte d'entrée vers le DigitalID et la #surveillance d'internet, coordonnée entre plusieurs pays.
La suite sera la proposition d'interdiction des réseaux sociaux aux moins de 16 ans.
C'est un cheval de Troie, une guerre contre l'anonymat mais mais on vous dira que c'est pour "protéger les jeunes".
Analyse de 5 problèmes de la vérification d'âge, des outils mis en place, du DSA, ce qu'était #internet avant, et les méthodes de contournement.

Я в декабре 2019 года писал про проект ASPI по идентификации активности китайских технологических компаний в мире, он не обновлялся почти 2 года и, оказывается, неожиданно был обновлён в июне 2021 г. В виде большого набора данных и на карте собраны сведения о 3948 инициативах китайских технологических компаний в мире: совместных производствах, контрактах, обучении, дочерних предприятиях, тренингах и многом другом. Всего 27 компаний в 186 странах. В России всего 121 такой проект. Можно обратить внимание, например, на проекты Meiya Pico, продавших в 2018 году Следственному комитету РФ технологию MagiCube для вскрытия телефонов iPhone и Android. По видимому, они заменили, израильскую компанию Cellebrite продуктами которой ранее пользовались отечественные правоохранители.
Что тут добавить, если даже российские госорганы закрывают госзакупки, это не значит что информацию о них скроют поставщики. Им же надо привлекать клиентов и показывать успехи.

Будет много интересных спикеров, актуальных вопросов о приватности граждан, так что рекомендую даже тем кто пока ещё далек от тем приватности.

Trump Gives a Conspiracy Theorist the Keys to the Vault
Donald Trump just handed one of his most loyal “Stop the Steal” lawyers the kind of access U.S. spies usually reserve for people who don’t think Hugo Chávez hacked the servers from beyond the grave. Kurt Olsen — a man literally sanctioned by a federal judge for “false, misleading and unsupported” election claims — is now a special government employee in the White House with access to some of the most sensitive intelligence the U.S. government possesses, all so he can “reinvestigate” whether Joe Biden really won in 2020. The message is simple: if the facts won’t fit the story, give the story full access to the classified files and let it dig until it finds something that can be chopped up and sold as evidence.
Olsen isn’t some neutral auditor dragged in from the cold. He worked hand‑in‑glove with Trump to overturn the 2020 result, leaned on DOJ officials to file crackpot lawsuits, was on the phone with Trump during January 6, and then moved on to pushing Kari Lake’s failed election challenge in Arizona — the one that got him sanctioned. Now he’s roaming through CIA, NSA and ODNI looking for proof that the election was stolen, reviewing at least some highly compartmented programs, and reportedly phoning the president whenever he hits a bureaucratic wall. This isn’t oversight; it’s a scavenger hunt with Article II as the master key.
The intelligence community is playing along in public. The CIA says it is “ensuring that he has the access necessary.” The White House hides behind the line that the president can grant classified access to whomever he wants. ODNI talks about “extensive background investigations” as if the issue were Olsen’s credit score, not the fact that his entire professional brand rests on insisting that U.S. elections are rigged. Even some Trump allies admit the obvious: Olsen has “no background” in intelligence, but plenty of motivation to rip reports out of context and wave them around as proof of a plot.
The risk isn’t just political spin. Election‑related intelligence often shows how the U.S. knows what it knows — technical capabilities, human sources near foreign regimes, methods that took years to build. Those are now being passed to a lawyer whose job is to make Trump’s 2020 fantasy look “classified.” The Senate Intelligence Committee’s Mark Warner is already warning that Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s hand‑picked DNI, is putting “some of our most sensitive sources and methods” on the line to curry favor. He calls it what it is: giving “the keys to our intelligence agencies to an election denier” hunting for a conspiracy that has been debunked in court after court.
And Olsen is not alone. Gabbard’s office has been running its own 2020 “fraud” safari — seizing voting machines in Puerto Rico, showing up at an FBI raid on an Atlanta‑area election office, personally linking Trump to agents on the ground. Officially, it’s “election security.” In practice, it’s the spy chief wading into domestic law enforcement to validate one man’s grievance about losing an election six years ago. The same man is now testing whether his most hardcore loyalists — the ones who swore they could prove the steal if only they had the data — can turn the U.S. intelligence system into an evidence factory for his narrative.
Strip away the legalese and the clearances and you get something very simple: the president is using the national security state as a tool of personal myth‑making. If Olsen finds nothing, Trump can say the deep state buried it. If Olsen finds anything messy, ambiguous or simply secret enough, it will be packaged as “proof” that 2020 was corrupt and used to justify more federal control over future elections. Either way, the damage is the same: intelligence is no longer just about foreign threats — it’s about protecting one man’s storyline about a race he already lost.

Drone Panic in El Paso: Homeland Theater at 18,000 Feet
The Trump administration just shut down the sky over El Paso like it was 9/11 because of what it now calls “Mexican cartel drones” — then quietly lifted a 10‑day ground stop within hours, offered almost no detail, and declared the “threat neutralized” with a bald‑eagle meme. The FAA’s NOTAM turned the airspace above a metro area of nearly 900,000 into “national defense airspace” up to 18,000 feet, warned that violators could be intercepted and detained, and suggested this could last until Feb. 20. By Wednesday afternoon, the same system said: never mind, all clear.
Drone incursions from Mexico are not new. For years, they’ve been used by smugglers to scout U.S. military and CBP positions along the border and have never triggered a full commercial shutdown of a regional hub. El Paso’s own member of Congress, Veronica Escobar — who sits on the House Armed Services Committee — said flatly she saw “nothing extraordinary” that could justify an immediate or 10‑day closure and learned about the stop from a random federal employee, not from the FAA or the Pentagon. Local officials and airport management were left in the dark, while Washington posted a laser‑and‑eagle graphic.
Democrats on the House Transportation Committee called the whole episode “unacceptable” and “chaotic,” blaming new language the White House jammed into the defense bill that gives the Pentagon wide latitude to declare and police chunks of public airspace. An aviation professor in Britain called a complete no‑fly zone over a civilian airport “very odd” and “very rare” — especially when the stated threat is a few small drones that, until yesterday, were treated as an annoyance, not an air‑defense emergency.
So what actually happened? The administration won’t say when the drones crossed, how many there were, or why this incursion suddenly required freezing all commercial traffic in and out of the “gateway to West Texas, Southern New Mexico and Northern Mexico.” Instead, it offers a simple story: cartel drones breached, the military acted, the homeland was defended. Mission accomplished, no follow‑up questions. For people who actually live at the border — where drones, smugglers and federal uniforms have coexisted for years — the bigger story is uglier: Washington just test‑drove a new emergency power over civilian airspace, then wrapped the beta test in the language of security and patriotism.
