Delighted to post the final version of my article, "Data Scanning and the Fourth Amendment," in the @BCLawReview, on how much of a search occurs with a government-ordered scan—an issue very relevant to the Supreme Court's geofence warrant case to be argued in April. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

What RFK Jr.’s CDC Doesn’t Want You to Know The CDC is withholding critical information about vaccine-preventable diseases from the American public. Why?

Important from @pauloffit.bsky.social — RFK’s anti-vax policies are causing death and disease, and he’s trying to keep the public in the dark about it.

Duterte is accused of crimes against humanity during a long and bloody war on drugs in which thousands were killed.

Zeynep Tufekci on having the wrong nightmares about generative AI I was writing a blog post where I was going to reference Zeynep Tufekci’s 2025 NeurIPS keynote, and realized there isn’t a solid synopsis online.

“Generative AI breaks long-standing correlations that society uses to infer things like effort, sincerity, authenticity, and credibility. Once these signals erode, we don’t automatically get something better.”

That irritating feeling that France was right Donald Trump’s America makes Gaullism respectable again

“If Donald Trump’s capriciousness inspires deep anxiety among Europeans, they are also troubled by another uncomfortable idea: a scratchy sense that perhaps France was right after all”

It is not too early for Democrats to build a Project 2028, because if we win, every single agency is going to have to be restaffed and rebuilt from the ground up in the first 100 days, and "We're going to undo the damage" can't be the sole item on our four-year agenda.READ NEXT POST BEFORE REPLYING>

The Real Cost of the UK’s ‘Free AI Training for All’ is Democracy Researchers argue the UK's 'AI Skills Hub' should be re-thought with input from civil society groups and public interest organizations.

The UK's "free AI training for all" program may offer free courses, but there is a cost to society for the government's approach. Elinor Carmi, Tania Duarte, Mark Wong, Susan Oman & Tim Davies argue it deepens Big Tech dependency while sidelining critical AI literacy and community organizations.
