Facebook
\nDating Launches in Europe After
\n9-Month+ Delay Over Privacy Concerns
\n[techcrunch.com]
\nThe launch of Facebook Dating in
\nEurope was postponed for several
\nmonths as they worked toward privacy
\nrequirements enforced by the Irish
\nData Protection Commission (DPC).
\nNatasha Lomas reports on the changes

\nSingapore’s
\nWorld-First Face Scan Plan Sparks
\nPrivacy Fears [thestar.com.my]
\nScary: Singapore will be the first
\ncountry to use facial verification in
\nits national ID scheme, but the
\nnotoriously flawed technology leaves
\n”opportunities for exploitation”, says
\nTom Fisher at Privacy International,
\n”such as use of data to track and
\nprofile people.”
\nInternet
\nFreedom Has Taken a Hit During the
\nCovid-19 Pandemic [wired.com]
\nThe annual Freedom on
\nthe Net report shows ”global
\ninternet freedom has been broadly
\ncurtailed,” largely due to
\nsurveillance methods for Covid-19,
\nsays Lily Hay Newman. The glimmer of
\nhope? 22 countries actually improved
\nand can help guide privacy rights.
\nFacebook
\nPromises Privacy Reform. Critics
\nAren’t Convinced [wired.com]
\n”\u2026 the [2019] FTC agreement barely
\nscratches the surface [to ’fix’
\nFacebook]. What we really need is for
\nCongress to pass strong federal data
\nprivacy legislation.” Here’s Lily Hay
\nNewman again on why Facebook can’t be
\nleft to self-regulate their own
\nprivacy practices.
\nConsumer

\nNew research from Consumer Reports and
\nOmidyar Network shows that technology
\ncompanies focused on privacy and
\nsecurity could see significant upside.<\/p>\n

And finally\u2026<\/p>\n

Tracking Down
\nthe Web Trackers
\n[darkreading.com]
\n”You’d be surprised how many people
\ndon’t know that Google is lurking on
\n~85% of pages and Facebook on ~36%,”
\nsays Gabriel Weinberg, our CEO and
\nFounder, citing statistics from our
\nopen source Tracker Radar
\ntool. Seth Rosenblatt reports on these
\nand other hidden trackers.<\/p>\n
