"At their heart, these technologies infringe human rights."
Last week @sianberry tabled an amendment to the UK Crime and Policing Bill that would prohibit the use and deployment of dangerous 'crime-predicting' police tech.
These systems will subject overpoliced communities to more surveillance. More discrimination. More injustice.

Video of Siân Berry (Green MP) speaking in the UK House of Commons about an amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill that "would prohibit the deployment and use of certain forms of “predictive” policing technologies, particularly those that rely on automated decision-making, profiling and artificial intelligence, to assess the likelihood that individuals or groups will commit criminal offences."
"Such technologies, however cleverly sold, will always need to be built on existing, flawed police data, or data from other flawed and biased public and private sources. That means that communities that have historically been over-policed will be more likely to be identified as being “at risk” of future criminal behaviour.... At their heart they infringe human rights, including the right to privacy and the right to be presumed innocent."
With the passing of the UK Data Bill, people are now in less control over how algorithms and AI make important decisions that affect their lives.
We called for additional safeguards around the use of automated decision making alongside trade unions, civil society groups and experts.
This was rejected, meaning it's harder to object when things go wrong.

Despite scandals such as officers accessing the files of Sarah Everard, the police no longer have to record why they're accessing someone’s data on a police database under the UK Data Bill.
This reduces accountability at a time when the police should be reassuring the public.

While the public debate has focussed on the impact of AI on the creative industries, the Data Bill is harmful for everyone in the UK.

🚨 BREAKING: DATA RIGHTS 🚨
The UK Parliament has passed the Data Use and Access Bill, which contains dangerous changes to data protection law.
People will now have less control over their personal data. That means more automated decision-making, less accountable data sharing and the future of the EU-UK adequacy agreement put in question.

The passing of the UK Data Bill is also a blow for democratic procedures in the UK, as we warned in our open letter signed by civil society groups and experts.
Government Ministers can now change the way our data is shared with minimal Parliamentary scrutiny.

Last week, ORG joined @edri and @privacyint in warning that this attack on privacy in the UK Data Bill threatens the UK’s future trade and collaboration with Europe.
Losing our adequacy status when the UK government is trying to grow the economy would be disastrous.

Keir Starmer overtakes Farage's Reform in his vicious anti-immigrant stance.
I came to this country as a young man. I stayed. I called England my home. I have educated British professionals for three decades.
First Brexit. Now comes Labour --- Labour! --- and tells me that I am lucky to be tolerated as an unwelcome guest.
What a world we live in.
