Cummings digital ID card plan provides a new threat to privacy

By Attila Tomaschek

Downing Street is at it again. We're seeing another attempt by the UK government to stand at the forefront of a digital revolution - or another attempt at shoving dubious digital solutions in the faces of increasingly skeptical Brits.

Dominic Cummings, Boris Johnson's chief advisor is leading the charge to introduce a system of digital IDs for UK citizens. On the surface (and in how it is being heralded by government officials) the digital ID system appears as though it should naturally be a part of the country's logical progression towards streamlining the transition to a digitised society, as more and more aspects of our lives are being taken online. Essentially, the digital identity scheme, as announced last week by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport, is designed to help make it easier for UK citizens to confirm their identities online for various services across sectors, register at a new GP, and to confirm their ages for age-restricted products and services.

Matt Warman, digital infrastructure minister, highlighted that officials "want to make it easier for people to prove their identity securely online so transactions can become even quicker" and that the scheme "has the potential to add billions to our economy".  

The scheme could - potentially - be advantageous, convenient, and truly beneficial for UK citizens, consumers, businesses, government organisations, and the country as a whole in many ways. But that will only happen if its implementation prioritises the security and privacy of UK citizens, it is implemented by the right people and it can properly elicit an appropriate level of public trust.

With several recent, high-profile digital fiascos on the government’s resume, however, that's quite a big 'if'.

Since the government is still trying to somehow rectify the bungled mess that is its digital contact tracing scheme and was recently forced to admit defeat and pull a complete u-turn on its ill-conceived A-level grades algorithm, it is becoming increasingly difficult to salvage any amount of public confidence in Downing Street and its capacity to successfully oversee such a massive digital undertaking that harbors such substantial privacy and security implications.    

The fact that officials are working to develop new legislation to protect consumer privacy and establish specific rights for consumers in relation to digital IDs is all well and good. But considering the government's recent digital misfires, its obsession with facial recognition policing, and that Cummings - who referred to the EU's GDPR legislation as both "horrific" and "idiotic" - is at the helm of the UK's digital revolution, doesn't exactly provide UK citizens much assurance that their personal data will be properly protected through the digital ID scheme.

Officials pushing the project are obviously keen to tout that the system will deliver citizens the efficiency and convenience they will need as the UK grinds forward with its digital agenda. But, underneath all the fluff, the digital ID system really appears to be a solution looking for a problem that doesn't exist, simply to justify its existence. Beneath the surface, it seems like this is just another attempt by government officials to gather as much data as possible from citizens and to encroach on individual liberties.

Any UK citizen with any concern at all for their personal privacy should be extremely wary of what the government is trying to do here. Downing Street has proven time and again that it doesn't have the best interest of UK citizens in mind when it comes to protecting their privacy. Entrusting such a wealth of sensitive personal, financial, and health-related data to a government that has been so incomprehensibly (and indeed detrimentally) indifferent to safeguarding its citizens' personal privacy is an enormous risk. Expecting that data to remain adequately secured and not used for alternative purposes is sheer folly.

All things considered, the current government has quite a long way to go and quite a few important things to rectify in the eyes of UK citizens before officials can seriously expect the populace to fall in line and eagerly adopt such a digitised ID scheme. You don't have to look too far into the past to recall that government initiatives for national ID cards in the UK have crumbled once before. There's no reason to think that it can't happen again.

Demo vor Oligarchen-Villa Zehntausende fordern in München den Frieden 02.03.2022, 22:39 Uhr Nach Großdemonstrationen in Berlin und Köln gehen auch in München rund 45.000 Menschen gegen den Ukraine-Krieg auf die Straße. Vor einer Villa am Tegernsee rufen mehrere Hundert Demonstrierende einen Oligarchen dazu auf, Russlands Präsident Putin zum Einlenken zu bringen. Gut 45.000 Menschen haben nach Angaben der Polizei in München gegen den russischen Angriff auf die Ukraine demonstriert. Viele hatten blau-gelbe Fähnchen und Transparente dabei - die Farben der ukrainischen Nationalflagge. Kinder trugen Transparente mit Aufschriften wie "Bitte lasst den Frieden gewinnen" und "Frieden für alle". An der Veranstaltung unter dem Motto "Frieden in Europa und Solidarität mit der Ukraine" nahm am Abend auch Ministerpräsident Markus Söder teil. "Wir werden unter keinen Umständen einen Krieg, einen nicht provozierten Angriffskrieg in Europa akzeptieren, niemals", sagte der CSU-Vorsitzende. "Jetzt sind wir alle Ukrainer und stehen auch zu dieser Verpflichtung", ergänzte er mit Blick auf Hilfsleistungen aus Bayern. Mit der Kundgebung wollten mehrere Parteien am politischen Aschermittwoch, der sonst im Zeichen des Parteienstreits und der wechselseitigen Beschimpfungen steht, ein gemeinsames Zeichen setzen. Zudem haben mehrere Hundert Menschen am Tegernsee unweit einer Villa des Oligarchen Alischer Usmanow demonstriert. Viele trugen Transparente mit der Aufschrift "Stopp Putin" oder "Stoppt den Krieg in der Ukraine jetzt" - meist in den Landesfarben der Ukraine. Manche hatten ihre Gesichter blau und gelb bemalt. Polizei und Veranstalter schätzten die Teilnehmerzahl auf rund 300. "Soll sich von Putin distanzieren" Usmanow war dem Vernehmen nach am Montag aus Deutschland abgereist. Der Grünen-Ortsverband Tegernseer Tal hatte zu der Kundgebung aufgerufen. "Es gilt jetzt, eine Botschaft an Usmanow zu senden, auch wenn er schon abgereist ist. Die Botschaft ist klar: Er soll sich von diesem Krieg und von Putin distanzieren. Er soll seinen Einfluss geltend machen bei Putin, zusammen mit anderen Oligarchen, um Putin zum Einlenken zu bringen", sagte Thomas Tomaschek, Sprecher des Ortsverbands. Erst am Montag hatten in Köln bis zu 250.000 Menschen gegen den Krieg in der Ukraine demonstriert. Die Demonstration wurde vom Festkomitee Kölner Karneval organisiert und fand anstelle des abgesagten Rosenmontagszugs statt. Am Sonntag gab es eine Großdemonstration in Berlin. Nach Polizeiangaben beteiligten sich daran mindestens 100.000 Menschen, das Veranstalterbündnis sprach von 500.000 Teilnehmern in der Hauptstadt.

Constanze Therese Adelaide Geiger, Freifrau von Ruttenstein (16 October 1835, Vienna – 24 August 1890, Dieppe) was an Austrian pianist, actor, theatrical actress, composer and singer.

Geiger, the daughter of the composer Joseph Geiger and the court modist Theresia Geiger, born Ržiha (1804–1865), had inherited the musical talent of her father, which is already noticeable at an early stage. After she and J.W. Tomaschek and Simon Sechter piano lessons, she already tried successfully as a concert pianist at the age of six. At 13 she entered the stage in 1848. She never accepted a firm commitment, but only completed shorter or longer guest appearances.

On 23 April 1862 she married Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and was raised with this morganatic marriage to the Freiherrenstand. With the wedding she withdrew from the stage entirely and lived with her family at Castle Radmeric. Their compositions for chamber music and church music, however, were still performed. After the death of her husband she moved to Paris.

Constanze Geiger was buried in Montmartre Cemetery.

Wenn die grauen Novemberwolken die Erde zudecken wie die Mutter ihr Kind, Dann fallen Tropfen so leise, der Regen rinnt.  Durch die fahlen Fensterscheiben flackert vorsichtig ein Licht,  Es scheint bis zum Frühling, auf dass unsere Hoffnung nicht bricht.  Ich lösche die alten Kerzen, der blaue Rauch steigt, Das Licht meiner Seele, es bleibt.  Wir schlafen und das Licht der Welt, das Licht unserer Seelen, es zerfällt. Wir sind uns fern, so weit auch das Sein, Uns verbindet nur ein kleiner, blauer Schein.  Wir sitzen davor Tag und Nacht, unsere Augen hängen auf halbacht, So sind wir vernetzt, ja wir sind uns so nah Und unsere Liebe füreinander ist trotzdem nicht mehr sternenklar. Ich bin betäubt in dieser Welt und doch so lebendig, Mein Leben ist unglaublich trendig. Wir sind doch alle Menschen, wir wandern auf Feenstaub Und merken erst viel zu spät, es war altes, nasses Novemberlaub.  So gehen wir dahin, ein Kreis der Zeit, die Liebe der Menschen, Tief im Innern, sie bleibt.  Leopold Tomaschek  

Das Gedicht handelt von einem Individuum das zerissen ist zwischen einer Welt der realen Empfindungen, der Schönheit des Simplen und der Gesellschaft in der es sich bewegt. Virtuelle Welten prägen seine Kontakte und trotzdem bleibt es verankert im Hier und Jetzt, wissend, dass das Miteinander alle anderen Probleme in den Schatten stellen kann.

¿Realmente sirve la astrología?

¿Es real o no? ¿En qué se basa? Muchos expertos aseguran que usa la “teoría de la influencia”. Aquí les dejo un extracto del Astroglosario de Bruno Huber:

La teoría de la influencia es una de las teorías a las que se recurre para la argumentación de la astrología. Parte de la base de que los cuerpos celestes (planetas, estrellas fijas, etc.) y los campos energéticos (zodíaco) ejercen en el mundo del ser humano una influencia hasta el momento no demostrada. O, como se pensaba en la Edad Media, que las fuerza celestes “influencian” en el devenir y el actuar del ser humano.

Muchos investigadores astrológicos (Tomaschek, Landscheidt, Gauquelin-el de la foto-, etc.) están convencidos de que esta influencia puede demostrarse con medios de ciencias naturales o estadísticos. La teoría de la influencia es la más extendida entre el público lego, puesto que es la que más de acuerdo está con la forma de pensar causal y lógica de hoy.

En el polo opuesto se encuentra la teoría de la correspondencia, que por regla general está defendida por astrólogos con orientación psicológica, mitológica o esotérica. (El más eminente representante de esta visión fue C.G. Jung- el de la foto-, con su concepto de «sincronicidad». Esta teoría comprende las correspondencias astrológicas como un paralelismo de acontecimientos que siguen la ley «como es arriba, es abajo» y no necesita ningún tipo de argumentación causal. En este caso el pensamiento no es lógico, sino analógico (basado en analogías).

Así como muchos astrólogos no se preocupan demasiado por la explicación del fenómeno astrológico, el resto de la escena astrológica está dividida en ambas posturas. No obstante, los más recientes descubrimientos de la física, en especial de la astrofísica, permiten suponer que ambas teorías no deben ser necesariamente excluyentes, sino que pueden confluir en una cosmología de orden superior. Con lo cual, la astrología sería «explicable»”…

Nervous wait on EU-UK data flows, despite trade deal

By Attila Tomaschek

In the wake of the EU-UK trade deal, businesses in the UK that serve EU consumers are watching closely to see how data flows will be impacted.

While there is no guarantee that data will continue to flow as freely as it had when the UK was still part of the EU, both sides appear to be on the same page when it comes to establishing an agreement that recognises the UK’s GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations) as being adequately in line with the EU’s GDPR in providing protection for personal data.

Since the UK is now officially considered a third country under the EU GDPR, after the trade deal came into effect on 1 January 2021, proper adequacy status must be established for personal data to flow unimpeded from the EU to the UK.

A ‘bridging period’ of up-to-six months has been put in place to allow the EU to enable data transfers while the EU completes its adequacy assessment.

If an agreement is not reached then the UK will need to introduce additional safeguards.

These might include entering into EU standard contractual clauses and establishing Binding Corporate Rules; although exemptions may apply in certain cases, for example if a data subject provides appropriate authorization for the transfer of his or her personal data.

If proper adequacy status is granted to the UK within the ‘bridging period’, data transfers will be permitted to continue flowing freely without the need to introduce additional safeguards.

It is if an adequacy agreement is not established that issues will arise for UK businesses serving EU consumers, as they will need to comply with both the UK and EU GDPR.

Compliance with one set of data protection laws is complicated and costly enough, but being required to adhere to multiple sets of stringent regulations will likely become a headache for any affected organisation.

The good news, however, is that information commissioner, Elizabeth Denham, seems optimistic that a positive outcome for businesses can be achieved.

Denham concluded following the announcement of a trade deal, that “this is the best possible outcome for UK organisations processing personal data from the EU,” adding that “this means that organisations can be confident in the free flow of personal data from 1 January, without having to make any changes to their data protection practices.”

However, her office issued a recommendation that organisations still prepare contingencies and “alternative transfer mechanisms” should an adequacy agreement not be reached, as a “sensible precaution”.

What happens from now until the end of June will determine whether or not applicable UK businesses will need to adhere to two different data protection regimes. A lot will ultimately depend on how the UK government plays its cards and decides to proceed.

If UK government officials attempt to make changes to existing UK data protection regulations in a way that is unequal to the protections afforded by the EU’s GDPR – essentially to dilute it - an adequacy decision by the EU is unlikely.

As the government is essentially keeping UK GDPR under review, and could change the name of the game at any moment, adequacy is still anything but a sure bet.

But an adequacy decision would be in the best interests of all parties involved. It would allow UK businesses to focus solely on a singular data protection regime, retain the existing streamlined nature of data flow between the EU and UK, and avoid having to jump through hoops and navigate red tape to make it happen.

UK businesses are hoping for the best, but preparing for a less favourable outcome.

Wissenschaft im Dienst der Nazis

"Selbst Professoren, die dem Nationalsozialismus eigentlich distanziert gegenüberstanden, forschten aus bloßem Patriotismus für das Militär.

Andere orientierten ihre Forschung offensichtlich an der Nazi-Ideologie, selbst in vermeintlich sachlichen Disziplinen wie Physik oder Mathematik. Renommierte Forscher wie der Heidelberger Nobelpreisträger Philipp Lenard propagierten eine rassistische "Deutsche Physik", die sich von der bisherigen dadurch unterschied, dass sie die Quantenmechanik und die Relativitätstheorie als jüdische Machwerke ablehnte. In München fanden diese Ideen zumindest vereinzelt Zuspruch. Die TH berief 1936 Rudolf Tomaschek, einen Schüler Lenards, auf den Lehrstuhl für Experimentalphysik."

NATIONAL RAPE DAY: It Don't Exist And Women's Charities Slam Sickening TikTok Video Encouraging Attacks

NATIONAL RAPE DAY: It Don't Exist And Women's Charities Slam Sickening TikTok Video Encouraging Attacks 'On Women' On 'National Rape Day' Sexual violence victim charities have slammed reports of a TikTok video claiming to show men promoting 'National Rape Day' with the news coming not long after Falmouth University announced a Whatsapp group encouraging people to be out and attacking women on Saturday night. Women have been warned to stay indoors after the rumours of the stomach-churning threats for 24th April 2021 were released on the popular video sharing app. The alleged clip has been blasted by charities after the hashtag #April24 has been viewed more than 62 million times, with hundreds of thousands of videos. Whilst the original clip is believed to have been pulled down, and some reports that it didn't exist at al, it has still sparked panic and a plethora of online warnings. Most people are advising women to lock their doors and even stay at home all day whilst other accounts are offering self help and self-defence tips. One campaigner described the idea of a 'National Rape Day' - where laws are supposed to be suspended and rape is legal - as 'abhorrent'. Katie Russell from Rape Crisis England & Wales, said: 'Our understanding is that this disturbing so-called "trend" on TikTok began as a hoax, and no evidence has been found of the original video threatening a national day of sexual violence in the USA.' 'Regardless of its origins, or whether it was intended as a "joke" at any point, the very concept of such a day is abhorrent and has caused many people, particularly women and girls, a great deal of understandable fear.' 'The "trend" will no doubt have also been extremely distressing for many, and least of all victims and survivors of rape and all forms of sexual violence and abuse who might have vivid memories and flashbacks to past experiences triggered by this.' And she continued: 'Obviously, despite on particular piece of misinformation that has featured in this so-called "trend", there is no day or moment where laws are suspended and rape is legal in the USA or anywhere else in the world.' 'Rape and sexual assault are always serious crimes.' 'It should also go without saying that rape and all forms of sexual violence and abuse are traumatic experiences that can and do have a wide-ranging and long-lasting impact, and are never appropriate topics to "joke" about.' 'This episode reminds us of the ongoing need for us to collectively challenge, resist and dismantle the damaging, sexist "rape culture" that still exists in our society.' Andrea Simon, Director of End Violence Against Women Coalition said: 'Regardless of whether this is a hoax or not, we know of the use of threats of sexual violence and derogatory comments about women's appearance and bodies are very common forms of online abuse that women are subject to.' 'We wouldn't accept threats to rape offline and we can't ignore them online. They intend to intimidate and silence women in online spaces, causing real harm to individuals and to society and should never be tolerated.' 'Tech companies and social media platforms have a duty to remove such content, but currently this self-regulation isn't good enough, with too much onus on women to take steps to protect themselves online instead.' 'This needs to change, those using the internet to threaten and abuse women need to be identified and stopped.' UNACCEPTABLE Women's Aid have slammed the online reports calling it an 'affront'. Farah Nazeer Chief Executive at Women's Aid said; 'We know from our work with domestic abuse survivors that rape and sexual assault are used by the perpetrator to belittle, humiliate, coerce and control.' 'It takes a lot of strength and courage to report rape to the police and we know the justice system is failing rape survivors. We urgently need to reform the criminal justice system to deliver justice for survivors and to ensure accountability of the police and other services.' 'The go0vernment and all the institutions that shape our attitudes - as well as society as a whole - must work together to achieve long-term culture shifts. Whether this is a hoax or not is irrelevant - rape is an unacceptable violation and it is no joke.' 'That a "rape day" could be conceived as a joke brings home the level of change we need in our society. It is an affront to every woman. It also demonstrates the urgent need for improved education on issues such as consent and healthy relationships.' 'Every woman has the right to live a life free from abuse and violence.' Social media users have shared warnings about the unsettling videos. One user, under the name la.tania.ftn2 said: 'So I literally just saw a video on TikTok, and I had to make a video myself because most of my followers are women. And i need to make sure you guys are aware that there is a video gong around on TikTok of disgusting men - rapists, child molesters, predators, just disgusting human beings, and they literally came up with a date to go around and rape women and children. You literally heard me right, women and children.' Another, who goes by prettyboy365 said: 'April 24 has stupidly been made national rape day. Yeah, believe it, because it's real. Unfortunately whoever created it is very low minded and sickened in the brain. If you make any plans, stay inside or don't make any plans at all. For your safety. There are actually sick people who will go through with this rape thing and hurt people, so it's probably best to stay indoors. If you do go out, don't go alone and keep self-defence items on you.' Rumours of the video have also spread on WhatsApp groups with students in Cornwall saying they are afraid to go outside. A spokesperson for Falmouth University said any messages encouraging sexual violence were 'abhorrent' but there was 'no evidence' of a genuine threat. Devon and Cornwall Police are looking into claims around the encrypted chat which has reportedly been discussing 'Rape Day'. A force spokesperson said: 'Police have received report of the existence of the WhatsApp group and are currently making enquiries regarding the credibility of the group.' 'DISTURBING SO-CALLED TREND' TikTok have claimed it cannot locate the original video but has asked users to report any content related to the sick day. A spokesperson for the platform said: 'The supposed "National Rape Day" trend reported upon is abhorrent and would be a direct violation of our Community Guidelines, and while we haven't seen evidence of this trending on our platform, our safety team remains vigilant and would remove any such content.' Atilla Tomaschek, a digital privacy researcher at ProPrivacy, said: 'Although it seems unlikely that TikTok video actually exists, that the whole thing is just a horrible internet hoax, a type of sick joke, the concern it has caused is real.' 'It's apparent that most of the buzz is being created by users warning others about the purported plans for a national rape day and urging them to stay safe and remain vigilant, but the trend demonstrates how quickly something can spread on social media, and the real-life panic it can cause.' 'It's also a strong reminder for parents and educators of the sometimes harmful impact of social media, particularly where younger users are concerned.' 'Remember teens can join TikTok from their thirteenth birthday as per the platform's terms and conditions.' TikTok users are being urged to report any posts promoting the event or sexual assault of any kind.

The town is rallying around to make the women feel safe as police confirmed they are investigating talks of a threatened sexual assault spree in the town. It follows a series of messages sent to many young people across the Falmouth University community which told of a large group of male students threatening to compete to sexually assault the most women. Falmouth University said the messages were a 'hoax' started on the social video sharing platform TikTok, but the phenomenon has left young women in the area - including the Penryn Campus shared with the University of Exeter - shaken and fearful. The messages revolved around the idea that on Saturday, 24th April, 2021, male students would engage in 'national rape day' to see how many women they could assault. Devon and Cornwall Police have confirmed that the force was told about a WhatsApp group where it was allegedly being organised. A spokesperson said the police are 'currently making enquiries regarding the credibility of the group'. Nonetheless, the students have said they feel uneasy about going outside because of it and are visibly shook up. Acting student Hannah Bunker, 21, said: 'Whether it's true or not, it's fear-inducing. We don't need even more stress bout walking alone. All it does is make my fear and anxiety worse, whether it's happening or not. Men need to understand that taking a "joke too far" has serious effects on people.' Jade Phipps, Manager of Good Vibes Café on Killigrew Street in Falmouth, said she - along with Partner and Café Owner Dan Rossiter - decided to leave the lights on across the evening in question. They are encouraging others to do the same to keep the town's streets safer and more welcoming after the rapid spread locally on social media. Ms Phipps said: 'We always think about what we can do for the community, so we want to offer a safe space for people in the town, and act as a port of call. A lot of the places are closed, so it is dark, so we can be there to help - or just be a light left on in solidarity.' Ms Phipps said the spread of 'a national rape day' hoax brought to the surface very real fears about sexual violence against women. Referring to the fact that Falmouth University have dubbed the rumours a 'hoax', she added: 'Let's be honest, it's spread beyond that. There always might be someone who will take it seriously. I hope it's a hoax. But one person assaulted is one person too many. They can call it a hoax but the student population is scared. And in a light of recent events, I think they have a right to be.' Ms Phipps was referring to the murder of Londoner Sarah Everard - allegedly by a Met Police Officer. Miss Everard's death sparked nationwide reflection, discussion, and protests about the violence, particularly sexual violence, against women, and campaigns to ensure it was safe to walk alone at night. The Met's violent breaking up of a vigil for the murdered woman was heavily criticised, and sparked further protests about police powers - particularly the power to stop protests. Emily Ross, 20, also a student, said: 'I think it's really disgusting and I'm quite shocked. I can't believe in this day and age, especially this year with the whole Sarah Everard case, men still think this is okay. Even if it is a hoax, it's terrifying that a joke can be made out of something so serious. I am actually a little bit scared to go out on the 24th. I'll try not to make any big plans or go anywhere alone.' Ms Ross added that she always considered Falmouth a safe place, and said: 'It's reassuring to know that places on the high street are leaving their lights on because of it. They're doing their best to help and also it will create more visibility on the streets so it will help alleviate the feeling of someone following you. It's good they're bringing awareness and trying to do something about it.' Falmouth's own vigil was cancelled, and Ms Phipps said her idea - called #LeaveTheLightsOn - could also serve to bring the issue as a whole to light. She said: 'When things like this raise awareness, naive to think it's a new problem. As well as keeping the lights on to help with street safety, we might light a candle in the window - as the vigil we weren't able to have.' Fine art student Morgan Acton, 20, said she was also encouraged by the reaction of the people in the town. But she added: 'We shouldn't just make this a week where people care about the threat of sexual violence and then swiftly move on. Nobody should be making a joke out of this. They should be doing everything they can to dismantle rape culture at all times and not just when it becomes highlighted in this way. This stuff continues to happen whether there's a TikTok trend on it or not.' Read the full article
