Privacy warrior. Control over health data is essential for trust in doctors, research, electronic health systems, and Democracy. Tech solutions exist, use them!

[Deborah C. Peel MD @dpeelmd]

What is the "CLOUD" anyway? Hilarious - Kitty's video shows why tech needs to protect human rights. Your data IS you, and you should control it. @agropper @nicolasterry @FrankPasquale @dariustahir @boltyboy @IEEESA @rossjanderson @rcalo @cubismi_inc @EFF https://t.co/Mn0TsYA3G1

@Johannes_Ernst I'm betting on the cooperative scenario (#3). There are plenty of places for us capitalists to invest other than data brokerage. Our economy will survive and our society will be happier. @TrusteeHIE @PatientPrivacy

Here are the last two chapters of the third edition of Security Engineering. They cover the hard interactions between security and society: from self-driving cars to adversarial machine learning, and from opsec to elections https://t.co/PSnvpt1ivv

Amazing. Entire foundation of test & trace is illegal.

Congrats @RaviNa1k & @OpenRightsGroup for forcing govt to admit this. But what next for this absolute shambles of a system that is bedrock of any return to normality?

Texas Doctor: I got 10 calls yesterday for young people who will die if they don’t get ICU support, but I only have three beds left.

Surveillance of humans by state or private actors should be treated like a biological weapon. It's the only way to manage the spread of machine learning technology on human terms.

[Deborah C. Peel MD @dpeelmd]

Just like US govt & health system's unfettered use of all personal data @SeemaCMS @HHSGov @ONC_HealthIT @PrivacyHub @Apple @amazon @USCongress @WHOSTP44 @WhiteHouse @facebook @Google @EFF @EPICprivacy @IEEESA @CNIL_en @edri @EU_EDPS @Info_Activism @CenDemTech @DataCurtain @IBM

Theresa May's digital legacy is worse than that. It includes the Investigatory Powers Act, which says she can secretly order companies to change their systems to collect such data. Oh, and the end of free movement...

It's not burnout, it's moral injury. https://t.co/advspWwvDg Hospital administrators will not fix this problem as long as physicians are not willing to buy, and therefore control, our own information tools. @PatientPrivacy

@chengela Correcting error: HIPAA regs stripped patients of control over PHI & privacy in 2003, legalizing massive hidden US #healthdata aggregation & sale. HIPAA legalized #SurveillanceCapitalism
