Forget the election with the IT Privacy and Security Weekly update for the week ending November 8th., 2022

This week we have a refreshing break for anyone in the US who has been bludgeoned with non-stop Political ads for the last two weeks. (These ads are everywhere, TV, the sides of buses, the Internet, radio, and even people’s front lawns.)

For our fresh “forget the election” update we start with a “You could not make this up” story again about TikTok, now changing their EU privacy policy to let all in the EU know that their data is actually going to China.

We move on to a story about plagiarism by AI, scanning of devices, scanning of faces, and a new audience for New York neighborhood cams.

In the name of efficiency, we have smartwatches in meat factories, and a new app that you can load on your computer to index what you did and said for weeks at a time.

We have the Red Cross trying to figure out a flag to wave in the world of digital warfare amidst some interesting new malware delivery mechanisms.

Finally, we end with what may be the most practical use of AI of all time: writing wedding gift thank you letters.

By the time you get to the end of this update, you’ll be in the know, refreshed, and maybe even ready for the next 4 months of U.S. election recounts!
