Privacy is not just about keeping secrets. It is about protecting your power. In episode 629 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Zack Glaser talks with Oxford professor and author Carissa Véliz about how personal data gives companies, governments, and technology platforms the ability to influence our choices and shape our lives.  Carissa explains why seemingly harmless information, from the music you enjoy to the way your phone battery drains, can be used to identify, categorize, and predict you. They explore how AI has made surveillance cheaper and more powerful, why predictions should never be treated as facts, and how automated scores can affect important decisions without giving people a meaningful way to challenge them.  The conversation also offers practical ways to reclaim control without abandoning technology entirely. From choosing more private digital tools to questioning the predictions presented as inevitable, Carissa shows why every decision to protect your privacy matters.  If you have ever clicked “accept” without thinking about what happens next, this episode will change the way you think about your data, your autonomy, and who gets to shape your future.  Listen to our previous episodes on AI, Privacy & Legal Ethics.  #618: AI and Legal Ethics: Protecting Client Privacy in a Changing Legal System, with Sunny Eaton Apple | Spotify | LTN  #612: AI for Lawyers: What You Need to Know Before Your Clients Do, with Cat Casey Apple | Spotify | LTN  #582: Deepfakes, Data, and Duty: Navigating AI Ethics in Law, with Merisa Bowers Apple | Spotify | LTN  #543: What Lawyers Need to Know About the Ethics of Using AI, with Hilary Gerzhoy Apple | Spotify | LTN  #486: How to Safely Include AI in Your Legal Tech Stack, with Will Anoh Apple | Spotify | LTN  Have thoughts about today's episode?

Alex Hammerstone joins Dave Cohen to talk about AI and hackers who got personal data from Chic-Fila's reward app.

Every email receipt, loyalty card, online search, app permission, and free Wi-Fi connection can reveal more about you than you realize.In this episode of Entrepreneur | Authorities, Joe Pardavila speaks with data science and AI expert Wes Chaar, author of Data Independence: Reclaiming Privacy in an Era of Evolving Tech, about how companies follow our digital breadcrumbs and turn personal information into profit.Wes explains how a simple email address can help businesses connect your purchases, online behavior, location, interests, and spending habits into a detailed customer profile. He also reveals why airlines offer free Wi-Fi, how retailers use loyalty programs as data acquisition tools, and why two people may see different prices for the same hotel room or product.The conversation also examines the growing power of artificial intelligence, the difference between personalization and manipulation, and the anxiety younger workers feel as AI transforms white-collar careers.Wes shares his proposal for giving individuals greater control over their personal information through what he calls the “data vote,” along with a new regulatory framework built around transparency, accountability, protection, equality, and respect.Who should own your personal data? How much control should companies have over it? And should you receive a share of the money your information helps generate?Listen to the full conversation to learn how the data economy works and what it may take to reclaim your digital independence.What You'll Learn:How companies connect small pieces of information to create a detailed customer profileWhy stores ask for an email address or phone number at checkoutHow loyalty programs act as data collection systemsWhy airlines may profit more from customer data than ticket salesWhy free services often generate value through user informationHow AI relies on personal, behavioral, and creative dataWhere personalization can cross into emotional manipulationWhy AI is causing anxiety among Gen Z and white-collar workersHow companies may use personal data to set different pricesWhy government agencies can sometimes buy data without seeking a warrantChapters00:00 – Introduction00:59 – The Digital Breadcrumbs You Leave Every Day02:00 – What Happens When You Give a Store Your Email03:38 – How Companies Use Data Beyond Advertising05:17 – The Privacy Trade-Off We Make for Convenience06:42 – Why Free Platforms Want Your Data07:30 – AI Runs on Your Personal Information09:27 – The Idea of a Personal “Data Vote”10:17 – When Personalization Becomes Manipulation13:20 – How Companies Predict and Influence Emotion15:19 – Why Gen Z Is Pushing Back Against AI16:32 – AI's Impact on White-Collar Jobs20:04 – Which Industries Use Personal Data Most Aggressively?20:33 – How Airlines Became Data Companies22:14 – Loyalty Programs as Data Acquisition Tools23:37 – The Real Reason Airlines Offer Free Wi-Fi25:55 – Why Two People May See Different Prices27:40 – Governments Buying Data Without Warrants29:00 – A New Framework for Data Regulation32:20 – Why Europe Leads the U.S. on Technology Rules34:45 – Who Should Own Your Personal Data?37:04 – Data Independence and Final Thoughtsin control or compensation for their dataWhat Wes Chaar means by a personal “data vote”

Every day we create data, but almost none of us know who really owns it.In this episode of Couchonomics with Arjun, André Vellozo, Founder and CEO of DrumWave, joins the show to explore one of the biggest questions facing the digital economy: what if people could own their data the same way they own money?André explains why privacy is only the beginning of the conversation, why AI is accelerating the need for data ownership, and why he believes the world needs entirely new infrastructure that allows people, businesses, and governments to exchange data securely while creating value for everyone involved.

We're still unpacking the slew of consequential Supreme Court decisions that came down at the end of the term last week. Among them was a 6-3 ruling on digital data privacy.In Chatrie v. United States, the Court found digital data does fall under the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures by the government.Andrew Guthrie Ferguson, law professor at George Washington University and author of the recent book “Your Data Will Be Used Against You: Policing in the Age of Self-Surveillance," explains more.More on this“Chatrie v.

Japan received reports of 19,417 personal data breach cases in fiscal 2025, the second-highest annual total on record, only eclipsed by the previous year's 21,007 cases, according to a report by a government commission.

In this week's Talking Money, Rory talks about companies that sell our personal data – how much is our information worth, and what are the consequences of these free services using our information to make money.  

In this 100th episode of Swimming with Alligators, Earnest and Alexa dive into how emerging managers and VCs can truly differentiate in a world where everyone shows the same logos and track records. They unpack why LPs increasingly care about who actually sourced and led deals, why personal differentiation matters more than over-explaining strategy, and how consumer investing is quietly coming back into favor. They explore the limits of “AI strategies” that are more theater than edge, the shifting career paths for 30–40-something VCs, and whether the popular barbell approach to venture (tiny funds + megafunds) still fits a rapidly changing market. They also discuss how diligence is evolving, why moats now look more like trust, data, and distribution than pure tech, and what a wave of large IPOs could mean for angels, new funds, and early-stage competition. Highlights from this week's conversation include: Celebrating 100 Episodes and DDQ Format (0:33)   Differentiation in Fund Decks and Shared Logo Problem (2:12) Why Sourced vs Led Matters and Back-Channel Relationships (3:56) Overemphasis on Strategy vs True Differentiation and Team Cohesion (6:25) Pressure to Go Public, Headaches of Being Public, and Lawsuit Risk (10:14) OpenAI, Anthropic, SpaceX, and Logic of If They Do It, We Have to Do It (12:26) Enterprise VCs Moving into Consumer and Founders Rethinking Moats (14:11) Distribution, Brand, Trust, and Proprietary Data as Defensible Moats (16:25) Google, Personal Data, and Unseen Costs of Using LLMs (18:15) LPs Asking About AI Strategy and Congruent Use of AI Tools (20:44) Start ,Bench, Cut, Trade, and Suspend for 30s and 40s VCs (24:46) Allocators Following a Barbell Approach and Conventional Wisdom (27:11) LPs Diligencing Firm Strategy, Hiring, and Seed Creep at Large Funds (34:56) Audience Q&A Segment Introduction and Contact Information (37:13) Tinkering, Experimenting with Workflows, and Evaluating AI Tool Impact (39:07) Durability of Business Models, Trust, Distribution, and Manufactured Momentum (41:02) Post-IPO Talent Leaving, Mafias, and Angel-Backed New Founders (44:11) Closing Reflections on 100 Episodes and Looking Ahead to the Future (46:24) Swimming with Allocators is a podcast that dives into the intriguing world of Venture Capital from an LP (Limited Partner) perspective.

The expression that if something is offered for free, then you are the product is often used in relation to technology companies, but new research has calculated how much companies are profiting off our data. The Web3 Foundation suggests that over €200,000 worth of personal data is collected from each European by big tech and AI companies over a lifetime, raising concerns over how our data is harvested and used.Joining Ciara Doherty to explain the study is Ciara O'Brien, a Technology Journalist with The Irish Times.

A security agency tested 5,000 apps built with Lovable, Replit, Base44 and Netlify. Every single one had vulnerabilities — including apps that were live, charging customers, and handling personal data.

Atlassian connected its AI agents to a richer layer of company knowledge (documents, projects, goals, people) and measured a 44% improvement in answer accuracy using 48% fewer resources. Same models. Different information. Brian Armstrong restructured Coinbase the same week: 14% headcount cut, five management layers maximum. When AI can surface what previously required institutional memory and senior tenure, the organizational layers built around that knowledge become harder to justify.The visible shift gets covered in tech headlines. What gets lost in the announcement energy: none of this works if the company hasn't decided what it wants AI to do.The more widespread barrier is upstream of governance. Most executives approving AI budgets are working through the aftermath of pilots that underdelivered, first-generation deployments that didn't survive contact with their actual data, and early model results that left skepticism the current tools have since substantially outrun. That trust deficit — organizations evaluating new AI investment based on experiences two generations old — is where enterprise AI projects most commonly stall. Shadow AI governance and deployment intent are real risks, but they're downstream of that harder problem. There is no closing the capability gap inside an organization that is quietly waiting for the next deployment to fail too.John Willis co-wrote The DevOps Handbook because software teams were shipping code fast without feedback loops or governance. He sees the same pattern repeating with AI — and he spent five decades documenting what happens when the gap between vendor promises and operational reality gets this wide.* Why shadow AI is more dangerous than an outright ban* Why throughput without governance means instability at scale* Why governance creates flow instead of stopping it* Why most teams have ML evaluation tools when they need audit trails* Why even a five-person startup needs digitally signed records of agent decisions* What AI winters teach us about where we actually are nowListen: Spotify | Apple PodcastsRikki Singh leads product innovation at Twilio — what the company calls its biggest launch in 17 years. Before Twilio she was at McKinsey, where she co-authored the definitive research on what makes a great PM. The Qualtrics 2026 CX Trends Report found nearly 1 in 5 consumers who used AI customer service saw zero benefit. That number is the benchmark she is working against.* Why most AI CX is still FAQ automation with better packaging* Why the LLM wrapper creates false confidence — the model generates strings, it is not thinking* Vitamins vs painkillers: how to parse what customers don't say out loud* How to protect long-horizon bets inside a public company* Why the brand owns the accountability when AI gets a high-stakes interaction wrongListen: Spotify | Apple Podcasts

Ryan Burke, VP of Worldwide Sales at Crogl, joins Sam Jacobs, AJ Bruno, and Asad Zaman on the new economics of enterprise cyber risk. Topics include Anthropic's Mythos model, AI for the security operations center, why vibe-coded apps are far more likely to have security issues, why Claude Design tanked Figma's stock, and what the Elon Musk versus OpenAI lawsuit signals for AI governance. Key takeaways: AI has crashed the cost of running sophisticated attacks, putting nation-state-grade tooling in the hands of low-skill operators. As Ryan Burke, VP of Worldwide Sales at Crogl, put it on Anthropic's Mythos model: "Mythos has lowered the cost to like the dollar menu equivalent of...running an attack...so more people can do it." Enterprises are staring down a multi-year patching backlog that runs from now until the end of time. Non-technical teams in finance, ops, and HR are shipping internal tools using Replit and Claude, and almost none of them are securing what they build. Ryan Burke flagged the research: "vibe-coded software is almost 3 times as likely to have security issues." When the employee who built the agent quits, the agent stays behind with no owner, no documentation, and quiet access to systems it never should have had in the first place. For founders eyeing an exit, security has joined revenue, IP, and hitting your numbers as a non-negotiable diligence pillar. As Ryan Burke explained: "lack of security can kill an acquisition...a fourth pillar now is you're secure." Acquirers like JPMorgan Chase will not buy a fintech startup that turns into a vector for attackers to walk straight into their environment. The market case for NRR-fortress legacy SaaS may be weaker than the last decade made it look. As Asad Zaman, CEO of Sales Talent Agency, argued: "there was a generation of software companies that had signs that they had really good customer relationships...but their customers felt more like prisoners." If AI makes switching cheap and a new generation of software actually delights users, the moats around system-of-record incumbents start to compress fast.

March 5, 2026- Assemblymember Emérita Torres, a Bronx Democrat, makes the case for prohibiting companies from setting online prices based on a shopper's personal data and wants to require disclosure for other forms of automated pricing.

Today's Headlines: On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 that Donald Trump's tariffs are unconstitutional under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The dissenters: Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh. Trump responded by blasting Justices Gorsuch and Barrett as “disloyal” and insisting he can “destroy trade” but not “charge a little fee.” He then proposed a global 10% tariff workaround — later bumped to 15%. Meanwhile, Americans are still effectively paying 9.1% in tariffs, and the Court didn't address what happens to the $133 billion already collected. Over the weekend, Trump announced he's sending a “great hospital boat” to Greenland, despite Denmark saying it wasn't informed and doesn't need it. The Navy ships in question are reportedly in Alabama. Sure. On the Russia beat, a Trump ally signed a natural gas deal with Russian energy giant Novatek despite U.S. sanctions tied to Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine — the first known new U.S.–Russia venture of its kind. Separately, ICE and other agencies contracted with phone-forensics firm Oxygen Forensics, which has ties to sanctioned former FSB figures. At the same time, DHS has issued hundreds of subpoenas to tech companies seeking identifying information on users critical of ICE. Trump is also pressuring Netflix to remove Susan Rice from its board amid maneuvering around a media acquisition deal that could affect CNN. Casual. In Florida, Secret Service agents shot and killed a 21-year-old man who allegedly breached the perimeter of Mar-a-Lagowith what appeared to be a shotgun and fuel can; the investigation is ongoing. Meanwhile, Florida lawmakers approved renaming Palm Beach International Airport after Trump — a $5.5 million rebrand. And finally, taxpayers will now provide new Secret Service agents with two tailored suits upon graduation. Inflation hits us all differently.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Jake Hamilton, founder of Groundwire and Nockbox, to explore zero-knowledge proofs, Bitcoin identity systems, and the intersection of privacy-preserving cryptography with AI and blockchain technology. They discuss how ZK proofs could offer an alternative to invasive identity verification systems being rolled out by governments worldwide, the potential for continual learning AI models to shift the balance between centralized and open-source development, and why building secure, auditable computing infrastructure on platforms like Urbit matters more than ever as we face an explosion of AI agents and automated systems. Jake also explains Nockchain's approach to creating a global repository of cryptographically verified facts that can power trustless programmable systems, and how these technologies might converge to solve problems around supply chain security, personal data sovereignty, and resistance to censorship.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Groundwire and Knockbox02:48 Understanding Zero-Knowledge Proofs06:04 Government Adoption of ZK Proofs08:55 The Future of Identity Verification11:52 AI and ZK Proofs: A New Era14:54 The Role of Urbit in Technology18:03 The Impact of COVID on Trust20:51 The Evolution of AI and Data Privacy23:47 The Future of AI Models26:54 The Need for Local AI Solutions29:51 Interoperability of Knockchain and BitcoinKey Insights1. Zero-Knowledge Proofs Enable Privacy-Preserving Verification: Jake explains that ZK proofs allow you to prove computational outcomes without revealing the underlying data. For example, you could prove you're over 18 without exposing your full identity or driver's license information. The proof demonstrates that a specific program ran through certain steps and reached a particular conclusion, and validating this proof is fast and compact. This technology has profound implications for age verification, identity systems, and protecting privacy while maintaining necessary compliance, potentially offering a middle path between surveillance states and complete anonymity.2. Government Adoption of Privacy Technology Remains Uncertain: There are three competing motivations driving government identity verification systems: genuine surveillance desires, bureaucratic efficiency seeking, and legitimate child protection concerns. Jake believes these groups can be separated, with some officials potentially supporting ZK-based solutions if positioned correctly. He notes the EU is exploring ZK identity verification, and UK officials have shown interest. The key is framing privacy-preserving technology as protection against "the swamp" rather than just abstract privacy benefits, which could resonate with certain political constituencies.3. The COVID Era Destroyed Institutional Trust at Unprecedented Scale: The conversation identifies COVID as potentially the largest institutional trust-burning event in human history, with numerous institutions simultaneously losing credibility with large portions of the population. This represents a dramatic shift from the boomer generation's default trust in authority figures and mainstream media. This collapse is compounded by the incoming AI revolution, creating a perfect storm where established bureaucracies cannot adapt quickly enough to manage rapidly evolving technology, leaving society in fundamentally unmanageable territory.4. Centralized AI Models Create Dangerous Dependencies: Both speakers acknowledge growing dependence on centralized AI services like Claude, with some users spending thousands monthly on tokens. This dependency creates vulnerability to price increases and service disruptions. Jake advocates for local AI deployment using models like DeepSeek R1, running on personal hardware to maintain control and privacy. The shift toward continuous learning models will fundamentally change the AI landscape, making personal data harvesting even more valuable and raising urgent questions about compensation and consent for training data contribution.5. High-Quality Training Data Is Becoming the Primary AI Bottleneck: Stewart argues that AI development is now limited more by high-quality training data than by compute power. The industry has exhausted easily accessible internet data and body-shop-style data labeling. Companies are now using specialized boutique services with techniques like head-mounted cameras for live-streaming world model training. This scarcity is subtly driving price increases across AI services and will fundamentally reshape the economics of AI development, with implications for who controls these increasingly powerful systems.6. Urbit Offers a Foundation for Trustworthy Computing: Jake positions Urbit as essential infrastructure for the AI age because its 30,000-line codebase (versus Unix's three million lines) can be understood by individual humans. Its deterministic, purely functional, and strictly typed design aims for eventual ossification—software that doesn't require constant security patches. This "tiny and diamond perfect" approach addresses the fundamental insecurity of systems requiring monthly vulnerability patches. In an era of AI agents and potential prompt injection attacks, having verifiable, comprehensible computing infrastructure becomes existentially important rather than merely desirable.7. Nockchain Creates a Global Repository of Provable Truth: Jake's vision for Nockchain combines ZK proofs with blockchain technology to create a globally available "truth repository" where verified facts can be programmatically accessed together. This enables smart contracts or programs gated on combinations of proven facts—such as temperature readings from secure devices, supply chain events, and payment confirmations. By using Nock's abstract, simple design optimized for ZK proof generation, the system can validate complex real-world conditions without exposing underlying data, creating infrastructure for coordinating action based on verifiable private information at global scale.

Growing speculation over a proposal to hand Australians' personal and biometric data to the United States is raising alarm among privacy and security experts. As other countries with visa-free arrangements with the U-S consider proposals to expand their data-sharing agreements, the Australian Government is yet to clarify if they're considering the move.

As ICE cracks down in Minneapolis and across the country, reporters and privacy advocates have drawn attention to how the agency is using technology: scanning people's faces without consent, using private health records to make arrests, tracking people's location in real time with phone data.So how does all this work? How does the United States' data ecosystem make it possible for not just ICE, but any number of government agencies and businesses to buy our private data? And what actually happens after we send that DM or open up Instagram at a protest to post a picture?To learn more, Host Flora Lichtman sits down with law professor and tech policy expert Laura Moy.

Both of Virginia's senators want an investigation into how the Department of Homeland Security uses sensitive personal data. Senators Tim Kaine and Mark Warner this week requested that DHS Inspector General Joseph Cuffari look into that issue. They pointed to reports that DHS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement are tapping into tools ranging from facial recognition and license plate readers to social media monitoring. Earlier this month, ICE also released a request for information on the use of AdTech data to help with its investigations.

Anthropic's disclosure of model drift within its Claude AI system highlights growing risks surrounding governance and ongoing alignment of artificial intelligence. The company has revised its guidelines using a “Constitutional AI” approach, aiming to instill reason-based behavior and ethical boundaries, and has openly acknowledged that an AI's internal controls may shift unpredictably over time—a concern when models are deeply embedded in business workflows. This admission places attention on governance and accountability rather than just model safety, making clear that the AI a company tests may become materially different after extended deployment, especially as personalization increases.Supporting these concerns, Anthropic's research demonstrated that large language models—including those from Google and Meta—can experience personality drift, with unintended shifts in behavior due to instability of internal control mechanisms. Google's updated AI offerings, tying personal data from Gmail and Photos to generative model responses, intensify challenges around data governance and organizational control. As vendors expand AI personalization and memory features, oversight gaps can emerge, raising questions about who retains authority over information, inference, and decision-making within automated systems.Adjacent findings indicate that the anticipated productivity gains from AI have yet to reach most enterprises. According to surveys cited by Dave Sobel, over half of CEOs report failing to realize ROI from AI investments, while frontline employees describe AI integrations as sources of friction and additional workload rather than relief. In the MSP sector, widespread adoption of “agentic” AI and digital labor is delivering financial upside for some providers, but it is also shifting operational liabilities—especially as contracts and security architectures lag behind new workflow realities.The core takeaway for MSPs and IT service providers is the necessity of reexamining control, authority, and contractual obligations in AI-enabled environments. Delegating tasks to automated agents increases exposure to unpriced and unmitigated risks if governance, liability, and monitoring mechanisms do not adapt accordingly. Effective harm reduction in this landscape requires treating workflows—not just models—as security perimeters, clarifying accountability for AI-driven actions, and ensuring that contractual and operational frameworks reflect these new sources of risk.00:00 AI Governance Moves Center Stage as Models Drift and Personalization Deepen05:08 AI Boosts Executive Productivity While Frontline ROI and Employee Experience Lag07:51 AI Exposes the Real Divide: Governance Failures vs. Effective Oversight in Government Systems10:39 MSPs Chase AI-Driven Margins, but Workflow Security and Liability Define the Real Risk This is the Business of Tech.

From hotels to fast food restaurants, more companies are luring consumers to sign up for loyalty programs in exchange for points, discounts and other deals. But according to two former FTC officials, loyalty programs have devolved into “data-harvesting machines” that track what we buy and even how much we're willing to pay. And the financial benefits tend to fall far short of the initial promise. We talk to Sam A.A. Levine and Stephanie Nguyen about how loyalty programs exploit consumers, how California is fighting back and how we can stay alert to the pitfalls.

The Covenant Path narrative has become a major way to track the milestone that members of the LDS must reach or attain to fully participate in the LDS church. A new app lets multiple people from the ward and mission watch and track stats on new converts as they attend meetings, get temple recommends, pay tithing, etc. It also identifies friends in the ward who can step in to encourage the new member to move forward on The Covenant Path if they aren't making progress.What are the potential ramifications of sharing personal data like this? And who exactly can see this data?

On 4 Sept., the Court of Justice of the European Union gave its highly anticipated decision in the EDPS v. SRB case. In its landmark ruling, the CJEU clarified the definition of personal data under the EU General Data Protection Regulation, and, in essence, the scope of EU data protection law. For Ulrich Baumgartner, a partner at Baumgartner Baumann and IAPP Country Leader for the DACH region, the ruling demonstrates a continued "relative approach" by the court, but it also provides a significant clarification against what he believes has been an "absolutist" approach by the European Data Protection Supervisor and other EU data protection authorities. Though the ruling provides important clarity for personal data, pseudonymity and anonymity, it also raises other questions. Either way, there are concrete takeaways for data protection professionals. IAPP Editorial Director Jedidiah Bracy recently caught up with Baumgartner to discuss the implications of the ruling, including what it can mean for the Data Act, data processing agreements and more.
