Commencement season is here, and while we all love the tradition, let's be honest: a lot of graduation ceremonies are still operationally stuck in the 18th century. This week, Chase Rigby, CEO of Tassel, joins Mike Palmer to talk about what it actually takes to modernize the final milestone of the student lifecycle. Chase shares his path from teaching seventh-grade math and science with Teach For America to working as a product manager at Google, before ultimately using a search fund model to acquire Marching Order and evolve it into Tassel. We dig into why forward-thinking colleges are moving away from treating graduation as just a logistical headache and starting to view it as a strategic marketing and recruitment engine. Chase explains how Tassel is trying to upend the traditional business model by moving away from nickel-and-diming students with steep fees for their own achievement, and instead leveraging community gifting platforms that put money back in their pockets for rent or student debt. We also get into the tech side of things, discussing how they train AI models on a 20-year phonetic database to get broadcast-quality name pronunciations on stage, all while navigating the strict landscape of biometric privacy and user consent. It turns out getting that final touchpoint right pays massive dividends for lifelong alumni relations. Episode Timestamps: 00:00 - Chase's journey from Teach For America to product management at Google. 03:00 - Running a search fund and finding the graduation space with Marching Order. 05:30 - Shifting mindsets: Treating commencement as a strategic marketing and alumni recruitment tool. 09:00 - Turning graduation into a net-positive financial event for students via gifting. 12:30 - Blending digital software with real life to provide free graduation photos. 18:30 - How Tassel uses a 20-year phonetic database and AI to nail name pronunciation on stage. 21:30 - Tackling biometric privacy, user consent, and BIPA compliance. 28:30 - Scaling campus software point solutions and trends in the lower middle market. 32:30 - Final takeaways, looking out for Tassel at upcoming ceremonies, and closing shots.

Meta Ray-Bans, translation earbuds, AR headsets — recording-capable wearables are already showing up in workplaces every day, often before anyone in HR realizes it. The policies most employers rely on were written for a world where recording meant pulling out a phone. That world is gone. Phil Brandt sat down with employment attorney Burt Garland of Ogletree Deakins to unpack the legal exposure most employers haven't thought through yet — consent laws, BIPA, NLRA Section 7, ADA accommodation, and the records problem nobody's talking about. If your handbook hasn't been updated for what's already walking through your door, this is the one to watch or read before the next policy review.

Zakladatel moderní pantomimy se narodil 22. března 1923 jako Marcel Mangel do židovské rodiny ve Štrasburku. Před nacisty uprchl s bratrem do Francie, změnil si příjmení a zapojil se do odboje. Při převádění židovských dětí přes hranici do Švýcarska uplatnil své mimické nadání a dokázal je beze slov zaujmout a zklidnit. Po válce se pak naplno věnoval pantomimě. Etudy jeho smutného klauna pana Bipa obletěly celý svět a jeho pohybovou technikou se inspiroval i Michael Jackson.Všechny díly podcastu Příběhy z kalendáře můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.
John Harman (CIPP-US, CIPP-E, CIPM, FIP) is senior privacy counsel at a major global entertainment company (NBCUniversal), where he advises on emerging privacy challenges at the intersection of AI, biometric data, film marketing and consumer-facing technologies. With a background spanning both legal analysis, incident response, and cross-functional collaboration with product and engineering teams, John helps organizations navigate complex regulatory frameworks including BIPA, the amended COPPA Rule, U.S. privacy laws, and the EU AI Act's biometric prohibitions. John is known for translating regulatory complexity into actionable guidance, helping teams audit API architectures for biometric data creation, assess AI-driven inference risks, and build privacy-by-design practices that align business objectives with evolving global standards. He emphasizes early engagement with product teams and operational controls that satisfy both enforcement authorities and product goals, positioning privacy as a business enabler rather than a compliance checkpoint.With John we will start discussing recent news like the networks of Ring cameras working together across neighborhoods and the new features of Meta glasses, to then go into practical ways to deal with innovation in AI, AI governance frameworks, and more.References:* John Harman on LinkedIn* Doorbell cams, surveillance tech face growing backlash (Axios)* The Legal Case Against Ring's Face Recognition Feature (EFF)* Can Federal Law Enforcement Access Your Ring Doorbell Videos (Consumer Reports)* Meta will ruin its smart glasses by being Meta (The Verge)* Illinois Legislature Passes Major BIPA Amendment (Paul Hastings, May 2024)* Introducing AI Sentinel for Masters of Privacy subscribers This is a public episode.

Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, sê dat van die meer as 137 000 besighede wat vir massa-deregistrasie geoormerk is omdat hulle nie aan die verpligte vereistes vir voordelige eienaarskap voldoen het nie, het ongeveer 45 persent nou voldoen. Die veldtog, wat tot dusver 1 000 entiteite gederegistreer het, vorm deel van pogings om geldwassery en belastingontduiking te bekamp en is krities vir gryslys-nakoming. Bipa se nuut aangestelde uitvoerende hoof, Ainna Kaundu, verduidelik die belangrikheid van nakoming:

Gleich für sein allererstes Kabarettprogramm "Herzensschlampereien" wurde dem populären Theater-, Film- und Fernseh-Schauspieler Christian Dolezal 2023 der "Österreichische Kabarettpreis" verliehen. Mit "Tante Pepi" präsentiert Christian Dolezal nun sein zweites Solo. In dieser facettenreich schillernden Erzählung voll menschlicher Kuriositäten und komischer Katastrophen geht es u.a. um Minigolfanlagen als Aufreißzonen und Hammerhaie als Bestsellerautoren, um heimtückische Katzen und tanzende Marder, spektakuläre Spaghetti-Wettessen und unseren Bundespräsidenten beim BIPA, um die beste Methode, alkoholfreies Bier zu genießen, und um den einzig wahren Volkssport Bienenzucht. Vor allem geht es aber um Zuversicht in nur wenig zu Optimismus Anlass gebenden Zeiten. Peter Blau hat sich mit Christian Dolezal unterhalten. (Teile dieses Interviews sind in CONTRA vom 20./21.12. zu hören.)
Reaksie word van die publiek ontvang oor Bipa wat aan 'n Korporatiewe Wetsontwerp werk om 'n meer bemagtigende sake-omgewing te skep. Dit sal twee belangrike sakewette, die Maatskappyewet en die Wet op Beslote Korporasies, hersien en vervang. Lede van die publiek sê dit sal meeste van die bevoegdheid in Bipa setel. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Romancia Shoongo, Bipa se ontwikkelingsbestuurder.
Die regering se besluit om aansoekers van die Nasionale Jeugontwikkelingsfonds toe te laat om aansoek te doen sonder Bipa-registrasiedokumente, is as 'n positiewe stap verwelkom. Suksesvolle aansoekers sal nou slegs hul Bipa-besigheidsregistrasie hoef te voltooi sodra hul projekte goedgekeur is. Die ouderdomsgrens vir aansoekers is ook van 35 na 45 verhoog. In 'n onderhoud met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het Danny Meyer, direkteur van SMEs Compete, gesê dat hierdie veranderinge Namibiërs in al 14 streke 'n beter geleentheid sal gee om voordeel te trek uit die fonds.
Reaksie kom steeds in oor die regering se besluit om die vereistes vir aansoeke van die Nasionale Jeugontwikkelingsfonds te verslap. Arbeidsdeskundige Herbert Jauch sê die veranderinge toon 'n poging om sakebefondsing meer inklusief te maak. Hy het aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesê dat die skrapping van die Bipa-registrasievereiste in die aansoekstadium kleiner, ongeregistreerde entrepreneurs sal help om deel te neem.
Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, is besig met 'n groot hersiening van Namibië se korporatiewe wetgewing om 'n meer bemagtigende sake-omgewing te skep. Die Korporatiewe Wetsontwerp poog om twee belangrike sakewette, die Maatskappyewet en die Wet op Beslote Korporasies, te vervang. Dit word as verouderd en onresponsief tot die huidige ekonomiese realiteite beskou. Rapha Likando, die uitvoerende beampte vir besigheidsregistrasiedienste by Bipa, sê die kern van die hervorming is om die twee wetgewings in een verenigde korporatiewe wet te konsolideer.
Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.Your next performance review might be scored by a model you've never met. We dig into how AI is reshaping hiring, promotion, discipline, and workplace surveillance, and we explain what that means for your rights under anti-discrimination and privacy laws. From the promise of efficiency to the reality of bias, we unpack why intent isn't required for liability and how disparate impact applies whether a manager or a machine makes the call.We walk through real examples, including Amazon's abandoned hiring tool that learned to prefer men, and the EEOC's first AI hiring settlement that signaled employers can't outsource accountability to vendors. We also trace the policy whiplash: federal agencies stepping back from guidance, while states and cities step up. New York City's bias audits and applicant notices, Illinois's expanded protections and BIPA enforcement, and California's “No Robobosses” proposals point to a patchwork of rules that matter the moment software touches your resume, your video interview, or your keyboard.Surveillance is expanding too. Keystroke tracking, productivity dashboards, and biometric tools promise insight but raise serious questions about consent, data handling, and monitoring off-duty or in private spaces. We share practical steps: ask if AI is used in decisions about you, request accessible alternatives, document outcomes that don't add up, and remember that retaliation for raising concerns is illegal. The technology may be new, but your core protections are not.

From timekeeping technologies to dash cams, the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) is now being used to challenge a number and variety of time-saving programs and tools. On this episode of We get privacy for work, we discuss the factors leading to the rise in BIPA cases. Today's hosts are co-leaders of the Privacy, AI and Cybersecurity Group. Damon Silver and Joe Lazzarotti, principals, respectively, in the New York City and Tampa offices of Jackson Lewis. They are joined by Jody Mason and Jason Selvey, principals in the Chicago office. Damon, Joe, Jody, and Jason, the question on everyone's mind today is: What BIPA compliance risks should you consider before adopting new technologies, and how will that impact my organization?
Na talle oproepe vir nakoming en inligtingsessies het Bipa vandag begin met die eerste deregistrasie van 1 000 besighede landwyd, omdat voordelige eienaarskap nie verklaar is nie. Daar sal maandeliks 1 000 van die 137 000 gederegistreer word. Waarnemende uitvoerende hoof van Bipa, Aina Kaundu.
Your face unlocks your phone, animates your emoji, and verifies your identity but who actually owns the digital rights to your unique features? In this deep dive into biometric data law, we explore the high-stakes legal battles reshaping how technology interacts with our most personal physical characteristics.When Facebook paid $650 million to settle a class action lawsuit over facial recognition, it signaled a seismic shift in how companies must approach biometric data collection. We break down the landmark cases—from White Castle's potential $17 billion fingerprint scanning liability to Clearview AI's global legal troubles for scraping billions of public photos without consent. These aren't just American concerns; we journey from China, where a professor successfully sued a wildlife park over mandatory facial scans, to India's Supreme Court ruling on the world's largest biometric ID system.Beyond privacy concerns, fierce patent wars are erupting over who owns the methods for collecting and using biometric data. Companies battle over facial authentication patents worth billions while "liveness detection" technology becomes crucial in a world of deepfakes and digital impersonation. The stakes couldn't be higher as these technologies become embedded in everything from banking to border control.We untangle the global patchwork of regulations emerging to govern facial recognition, from Illinois' pioneering BIPA law to Europe's strict GDPR protections and China's surprising new limits on private biometric collection. Throughout it all, a clear trend emerges: your face isn't just data, it's your identity, and increasingly, the law recognizes that distinction.Whether you're concerned about your rights, curious about the future of facial recognition, or simply want to understand why your social media filters might be collecting more than just likes, this episode offers essential insights into the legal frameworks shaping our biometric future. Listen now to discover how to protect your digital identity in a world that increasingly wants to scan it.Send us a textSupport the show
Send us a textTu rostro es único, valioso y ahora también está en el centro de batallas legales multimillonarias. En este fascinante recorrido por el mundo de los datos biométricos, descubrirás cómo tu geometría facial se ha convertido en un activo codiciado por empresas tecnológicas globales.Desde el histórico caso de Facebook que resultó en un acuerdo de $650 millones por usar reconocimiento facial sin permiso, hasta la controversia de Clearview AI que extrajo billones de imágenes de internet sin consentimiento, exploramos los límites legales de quién puede usar tu rostro y para qué. Te sorprenderá saber que cada escaneo facial no autorizado puede costar a las empresas miles de dólares en multas, como descubrió White Castle cuando enfrentó potenciales sanciones de $17 mil millones.Viajamos desde Illinois hasta China e India para revelar cómo ciudadanos comunes están ganando batallas legales contra gigantes tecnológicos y gobiernos. Conoce al profesor chino que venció a un parque de vida silvestre por exigir reconocimiento facial, y cómo la Corte Suprema de India declaró la privacidad un derecho fundamental frente al mayor sistema biométrico del mundo.Las patentes sobre tecnología facial están generando otra dimensión de conflictos, con Apple y otras empresas enfrentando demandas millonarias. ¿Puede alguien realmente ser dueño del método para usar tu cara como llave digital? La respuesta está cambiando con cada nuevo fallo judicial.Lo más importante: la tendencia global avanza hacia mayor protección. Nuevas leyes, desde BIPA hasta el GDPR y la futura Ley de IA europea, están devolviendo el control de tu identidad biométrica a donde pertenece: a ti. Tu rostro no es solo un dato, es tu identidad, y ahora la ley está de tu lado.Support the show
Dit is vandag die sperdatum vir nakoming van voordelige eienaarskapsverklaring met besighede wat reeds sedert 1 Mei gederegisteer word. Die verklaring van voordelige eienaarskap is nodig ingevolge die gryslysnotering van die land deur die Finansiële Aksie-taakmag. Indien jy ‘n eiendom in ‘n maatskappy geregistreer het, kan dit aan die staat verbeur word. Ockert Jansen, Bipa-woordvoerder...

Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, beplan om 'n kopieregheffing in te stel op ingevoerde digitale toestelle wat musiek of flieks kan speel. Waarnemende uitvoerende hoof, Aina Kaundu, sê die heffing sal kreatiewe mense ondersteun en tantieme verseker. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met Bipa se waarnemende uitvoerende beampte vir intellektuele eiendom, Onesmus Joseph, gepraat.
Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, het sy jaarlikse boete-kwytskeldingsprogram verleng tot 30 September. Bipa sê dit strook met sy voortgesette pogings om nakoming in die sakegemeenskap te bevorder. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met Ockert Jansens van die owerheid gesels. Voordelige eienaarskap sal verklaar moet word vir kwytskelding.
Namibië maak goeie vordering om die probleme wat deur die Finansiële Aksie Taakmag uitgewys is toe hy die land op sy gryslys geplaas het, aan te spreek. Die taakmag het by sy vergadering in Parys die land se tweede vorderingsverslag hersien. Dit wys dat vier aksie-items grootliks aangespreek is, die meeste ander is gedeeltelik aangespreek en een is nog nie aangepak nie. 'n Sleutel-prioriteit vir die volgende verslagdoening op 7 Maart is die indiening van voordelige eienaarskapinligting by Bipa. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gesels met Bryan Eiseb, die direkteur van die Finansiële Intelligensiesentrum.
Namibië maak vordering met die aanspreek van strategiese tekortkominge wat deur die Finansiële Aksie Taakmag geïdentifiseer is toe die land in Februarie 2024 op die gryslys geplaas is. Volgens die taakmag se jongste oorsig op 21 Februarie vanjaar is vier van die 13 aksie-items grootliks aangespreek, met die oorblywende items wat gedeeltelik voltooi is. 'n Belangrike aspek is die indiening van voordelige eienaarskapinligting by die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendom-owerheid, Bipa. Dit is van die uiterste belang om so gou moontlik van die gryslys gehaal te word. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gesels met Ockert Jansen, Bipa se woordvoerder, oor hoe indienings vorder.
Heute erzähle ich von meinem skurrilen Erlebnis im Barbershop, wo ich fast vor Lachen explodiert bin, weil ein verrückter Partysong lief. Danach gibt's meine Meinung zur Musical-Verfilmung "Wicked" – ein Film, der mich so sehr begeistert hat, dass ich im Kino applaudiert habe. Außerdem philosophiere ich über die Welt der parasozialen Beziehungen im Internet und warum es manchmal seltsam ist, wenn Leute glauben, sie kennen mich nur von kleinen Social-Media-Clips. Zum Schluss gebe ich euch einen Einblick in mein stylishes neues Büro, das so gemütlich ist, dass es fast schon ein zweites Wohnzimmer sein könnte.

Kleinsake-eienaars is vies vir die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendom-owerheid en sê dat vertragings in die verwerking van hulle voordelige eienaarskap-verklarings hulle verhoed om bankrekeninge oop te maak en handel te dryf. Hulle voer aan dat die stadige burokratiese prosesse werkskepping blokkeer en hul ekonomiese bydraes beperk. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Ockert Jansen, Bipa se woordvoerder, wat verduidelik.
Plaaslike media berig dat volgens die Besigheid en Intellektuele Eiendoms-owerheid, Bipa, daar sedert 2014 gemiddeld sowat twee kerke per week geregistreer is. Daar is ook 3 211 aktiewe Artikel 21-maatskappye, waarvan 1 245, of 38,7 persent, geloofsgebaseerde organisasies is. Dit kom te midde van berigte oor gewetenlose sogenaamde kerke en predikers wat gemeentelede misbruik vir kontant en selfs seksuele gunste. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gesels met die voorsitter van die Koalisie van Christelike Kerke, dr. Shirley Magazi, wat sê daar word gewerk aan 'n wetsontwerp.
Die Besigheid en Intellektuele Eiendoms-owerheid, Bipa, waarsku eiendomseienaars in die sakewêreld van nie-nakomingsrisiko's. Die owerheid doen 'n beroep op besighede wat onroerende eiendom besit om hul voordelige eienaarskap-status onmiddellik te verifieer, of moontlike regsgevolge in die gesig staar. 'n Beduidende aantal entiteite het versuim om aan nuwe vereistes te voldoen, wat kommer wek oor die wettigheid van hul eiendomsbesit. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Ockert Jansen, Bipa se woordvoerder, wat die risiko's onderstreep vir individue wat nie voldoen nie.
Die handelministerie nooi mikro-, klein- en mediumondernemings in spesifieke sektore om aansoek te doen vir toerusting- en masjineriebystand onder die Toerusting-hulpskema. Die sperdatum is 10 Oktober. Ondernemings moet in 100% Namibiese besit wees, by BIPA geregistreer wees, 'n belastingklaringsertifikaat hê asook 'n goeie status-sertifikaat van die Maatskaplike Sekerheidskommissie. Elijah Mukobonda, die ministerie se woordvoerder, het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesels oor die toepaslike sektore.
Die Besigheid en Intellektuele Eiendoms-owerheid, Bipa, moedig alle geregistreerde besighede in die Erongo-streek aan om môre en Donderdag belangrike inligtingsessies oor voordelige eienaarskap by te woon. Die sessies is ontwerp om voldoening aan die Finansiële Aksie Taakmag se standaarde te versterk deur begrip en indiening van voordelige eienaarskap-inligting te verbeter. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Ockert Jansen, Bipa se woordvoerder, wat meer inligting deel.
This week, we're looking at recent state-level changes and legal trends that have varying degrees of impact on employers. Massachusetts Pay Equity Law Massachusetts is the most recent state to enact a pay equity law. The law establishes new pay range disclosure requirements for employers that employ 25 or more employees in Massachusetts. Illinois Amends BIPA Illinois' new law limits penalties under the Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) and clarifies consent procedures. Employers can now be held liable only for a single violation per person rather than for each alleged use of biometric data. Michigan Supreme Court Reinstates Wage and Leave Laws In Michigan, employers will have to reckon with a new decision from the state's Supreme Court that reinstated two laws that were created through a public initiative. One law provides for annual increases to the minimum wage and a gradual elimination of a wage differential for tipped workers, while the other expands paid sick leave obligations. Federal Courts Strike Down Controversial Florida Laws In Florida, a federal district court judge permanently blocked the state's Stop WOKE Act, which restricted workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion training. And a different federal judge in Florida overturned the state's ban on transgender health care.

Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, sê hy sal konsulteer oor die pad vorentoe oor besighede se registrasie van voordelige eienaarskap. Adjunk-handelminister Verna Sinimbo het in die Nasionale Vergadering gesê meer as 165 000 besighede kan gederegistreer word, omdat slegs sowat 30 persent van die land se besighede die eienaarskap-registrasie afgehandel het. Die registrasie is noodsaaklik sodat die land van die Finansiële Aksie Taakspan se gryslys gehaal kan word. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met Ockert Jansen, die woordvoerder van Bipa, wat sê deregistrasie van besighede is die laaste opsie.
Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, het vroeër sy jaarlikse boete-kwytskeldingsprogram met drie maande verleng tot 30 Junie. Bipa het verskeie streke besoek waar sakelui na sekere dorpe kon gaan om aansoek te doen vir die kwytskeldingsprogram. Die program kom Sondag tot 'n einde. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het gepraat met die owerheid se woordvoerder, Ockert Jansen, oor hoe die aansoeke verloop het.

Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, het vroeër sy jaarlikse boete-kwytskeldingsprogram met drie maande verleng tot 30 Junie. Dit was na 'n oorweldigende aanvraag en terugvoer van die sakegemeenskap, veral klein- en mediumgrootte besighede. Bipa gaan verskeie streke besoek waar sakelui na sekere dorpe kan gaan om aansoek te doen vir die kwytskeldingsprogram. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die owerheid se woordvoerder, Ockert Jansen, gesels vir 'n opdatering.
Bipa pleit sedert verlede jaar dat maatskappye hulle voordelige eienaarskap-verklaringsvorms by die owerheid op te dateer en in te handig, soos wat hulle verplig is om te doen. Nog net 40 000 van Namibië se 218 000 geregistreerde besighede het hulle besigheidsvorms opdateer. Die verklarings is nodig om Namibië van die Finansiële Aksie-taakmag se gryslys te verwyder. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met Theo Klein, van Oxford Economics Africa, gepraat.
Die Owerheid vir Besigheid en Intellektuele Eiendom, Bipa, sê dat besighede traag is om hulle voordelige eienaarskap-verklaringsvorms by die owerheid op te dateer en in te handig, soos wat hulle verplig is om te doen. Nog net 40 000 van Namibië se 218 000 geregistreerde besighede het hulle besigheidsvorms opdateer. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met die owerheid se woordvoerder, Ockert Jansen, gesels oor hoe nie-nakoming van Bipa se opdrag Namibië se posisie op die gryslys sal beïnvloed.
Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, het sy jaarlikse boete-kwytskeldingsprogram met drie maande verleng tot 30 Junie. Dit is in reaksie op 'n oorweldigende aanvraag en terugvoer van die plaaslike sakegemeenskap, spesifiek klein- en mediumgrootte besighede. Die kwytskeldingsprogram was oorspronklik op 15 November verlede jaar geloods en moes op 31 Maart klaarmaak. Bipa besef dis vir baie besigheidseienaars moeilik om betyds by sy kantore uit te kom, en het dus besluit om die program uit te brei om inklusiwiteit en toeganklikheid vir alle kwalifiserende entiteite te verseker. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met Bipa se woordvoerder, Ockert Jansen, gepraat.
Die Besigheids- en Intellektuele Eiendomsowerheid, Bipa, het op 1 November verlede jaar sy jaarlikse boete-kwytskeldingsprogram aangekondig. Dit skeld sake-entiteite kwyt van boetes en bykomende fooie, wat opgeloop het weens nie-betaling van jaarlikse heffings tussen 2012 en 2022. Die sperdatum is vandag. Ten spyte van herhaalde versoeke was sakemense traag om te reageer. Volgens die nasionale uitsaaier is lang toue mense die naweek by Bipa-kantore in die Grove- en Maerua-winkelsentrums gesien, maar die diens was stadig. Besigheidseienaars vra nou dat die program verleng moet word. Bipa-amptenare sê egter Namibiërs is geneig om sake tot op die nippertjie uit te stel, en hulle verwag nie dat uitstel toegestaan sal word nie. Ockert Jansen, die woordvoerder van Bipa, sê aan Kosmos 94.1 Nuus dat besighede uiters stadig was om van die program gebruik te maak.
BIPA is the currently the most important topic in customer support. It's a pitfall for all companies that are running customer voices through AI systems. In short, this legislation imposes a penalty every time a person's voiceprint is captured without written consent. The penalty is $1,000 for every negligent violation, and $5,000 for every reckless or intentional violation.This episode is an explanation of BIPA from a customer support perspective.

They have our Social Security numbers and probably our Amazon shopping lists. But should employers be collecting data on, say, our fingerprints, voices or retinas? After all, these things are unique physical identifiers. And if they were somehow stolen in a data breach, they’re not easily changed like a password. A legal case in Illinois provided one of the first tests to a state law that protects this type of data — the Biometric Information Privacy Act, or BIPA. Last week 45,000 truck drivers won their suit against BNSF Railway for collecting their fingerprints without consent. Marketplace’s Meghan McCarty Carino recently spoke with Alan Butler, executive director and president of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, a nonprofit research organization. He said Illinois is at the forefront of a growing movement to regulate biometric data.
