The Amsterdam Court appeal of @ADCUnion drivers, represented by @WorkerInfoX, against Uber and Ola Cabs begins today.

We spoke to their lawyer, @EkkerAnton, about why the appeal for the workers' data rights matters, here: https://t.co/XePvapvM44

We're keeping Uber's lawyers busy next week. On Wednesday @ADCUnion & @WorkerInfoX will be at Amsterdam Court of Appeal fighting for data access, transparency & protection from robo-firings. Thursday we're back in the UK at ET w Uber over racist facial recognition malfunctions!

👍It was a great pleasure to host the first event of the Dutch AI Lawyers Association (VAI-A), together with @EkkerAnton.
Great turnout, and with an excellent lecture by @fborgesius!

[Anton Ekker @EkkerAnton]

COMING SOON - we are back in court in Amsterdam on May 18th versus Uber and Ola Cabs. We are demanding access to data, algorithmic transparency & protection from robo-firings by rogue gig economy employers.

[UU CORPO @uucorpo]

A Dutch court ruled last week that people employed by Uber are—shockingly—Uber employees. They actually have rights. Here’s an interesting interview with @jamesfarrar, ex-Uber driver, movement organizer, & lead claimant in the UK case https://t.co/eR1W3TICBS @wilfredchan

[Lilian Edwards @lilianedwards]

Brilliant research by @JBAGerritsen on whether we have precedents already for co-regulation by certifying bodies for safety and GDPR regulators under EU law. cf @EU_EDPS complaint this not taken into a/c in draft EU AI Reg.

I did not see the Weighing Instruments Dir coming :)

[Anton Ekker @EkkerAnton]

Great article by @ambaonadventure + @benzevgreen on automated decision making and human oversight. The call for human oversight creates shallow protection that can be avoided in superficial ways.

@SilviaPetulante Hi Silvia, very interesting, could you send me the relevant passages from you PHD thesis?

[Worker Info Exchange @WorkerInfoX]

BREAKING - 3rd of 5th Art 22 Uber driver wins back his license at City of London Magistrates Court. The appeal was against @TfLTPH decision to revoke aftwr Uber robo-firing using bad surveillance data. Another big win for @ADCUnion & WIEx. Digital rights are worker rights!

[Anton Ekker @EkkerAnton]

@ADCUnion @TfLTPH Great work!
