Ich habe einen wissenschaftlichen Konflikt.
Bei einigen Softwareunternehmen verstoe ich wissentlich gegen die AGB und lege mehr als einen (freien) Account an Einen echt benutzen ohne kritische Daten und einen digitalen Kanarienvogel.
Wieso mache ich das
In den AGBs werden zunchst Blocks und Lschung aller Accounts angedroht.
Gleichzeitig wird aber Datenschutz in interplanetarische Sphren gelobt, kein Logging, Tracking und dergleichen.
Hier besteht also ein Widerspruch. Und das Entdecken von Multiaccounts kann nur einhergehen, wenn Daten erhoben werden und ausgewertet werden.
Dann schlgt der digitale Kanarienvogel an. Fr Unternehmen, die zu den Werten stehen, wegen denen ihre Produkte erworben werden, ist das ein Dilemma und Konflikt.
I was watching Batman Forever (1995), with Jim Carrey as The Riddler and Val Kilmer as Batman. The following dialogue was near the end:
Batman: You've been sucking Gotham's brain waves and now you've devised a way to read men's minds.
The Riddler: Ha ha ha. You betcha! Soon my little box will be on countless TVs around the world, feeding me credit card numbers, bank codes, sexual fantasies, and little white lies. Into my head they'll go. Victory is inevitable. For if knowledge is power, then a god am I.
Interesting that what was once considered absolutely evil in 1995 is now a commonly accepted business practice of present day entities such as Google.
Meta and Yandex Disclosure: Covert Web-to-App Tracking via Localhost on Android
Mastodon says it can't comply with Mississippi's age verification law due to its decentralized, privacy-focused design .
Servers can set age limits, but the platform doesnt track users or store data, making enforcement difficult .
No central authority in the fediverse means no one can block Mississippi users .
No, thank you.

Digital Rights Management (DRM) doesnt work. Also: draft California law mulls mandatory DRM to preserve image provenance metadata, breaks Signal Messenger
Digital Rights Management (DRM) doesnt work. Also: draft California law mulls mandatory DRM to preserve image provenance metadata, breaks Signal Messenger
15-20 years ago we had a reasonable, common understanding that making data tamperproof or copy-resistant by law and/or to enforce artificial scarcity, was problematic. Identity credentials or basic copyright, fine, but Digital Rights Management (DRM) , , and now its back to save us from AI, and its bad.
For context: broadly I think that its better to add metadata to authentic things to prove their authenticity or provenance, rather than to do something silly like simply because there are so many more fake things in the world than authentic. However: labels are labels, we dont need to get into that argument right now.
But whatever happens we wouldnt legally forbid people, platforms and products from removing those labels. After all, the important thing is that an authentic thing can eventually be checked for authenticity if/where necessary, correct
You wouldnt want to reinvent legislative DRM, right
AB 853: California AI Transparency Act
Nope. California says more DRM please!. Apparently piece of legislation, (extract below) says, if I am reading this right:
- if your app or your platform serves more than 2 million (distinct globally) people per year
- then you are not permitted to strip-out C2PA provenance manifests and any other provenance tags that MAY be included in shared images
- so to stay legal you therefore MUST register your app with The Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) in order to be issued with secret per-app cryptographic keys that enable legal mutations (such as image resizing) to be
- and, of course, youll have to work out how to stop people futzing with those keys in open source clients, maybe even prevent them sending content which has had the tags stripped, and/or obligate addition of tags before content is shared
What about Signal, then
Adding metadata to images is , and I cant imagine that it would alternatively be very happy about being forced to swallow and send full-sized images from user to user by default images which in pursuit of speed and performance are .
God knows what would happen to video, I have no idea.
Theres also an interesting sop in the legislation re: personal information. Clearly someone has had a go at making it okay to from images:
A large online platform shall not strip any data that is not reasonably capable of being associated with a particular user and that contains EITHER information regarding the type of device, system, or service that was used to generate a piece of digital content OR information related to content authenticity, or digital signature from content uploaded or distributed on the large online platform AND IT shall not retain any provenance data that contains EITHER personal information OR unique device, system, or service information that is reasonably capable of being associated with a particular user from content shared on the large online platform
And the text is clearly aimed at centralised platforms like Facebook without end-to-end encryption being an issue:
- its not requiring personal information to be stripped, but its preventing the big central platform from retaining any of it potentially a problem for child-abuse investigations
- but also: what does retain mean in the context of a user-to-user end-to-end encrypted app Are those now obligated to strip personal data
- and: youre only permitted to strip nerdy techy metadata if its not reasonably capable of being associated with a particular user the problem being that , so much so that , which is
- not to mention: , but thats beyond the scope of metadata.
Summary
This draft law is broken-as-designed.
- It makes metadata-avoidant apps (e.g. Signal) break the law
- It forces proliferation of likely (if unobviously) trackable data, even in privacy-forward apps
- It messes with application architecture, burdening apps with secrets management / user hostility / protecting data from the user, and hampers open-source tools (mastodon, anyone)
Grade: D- you should know better than this.
Postscript / Update
As somebody on Reddit observed: you also need to contemplate the contents of your feed and observe how much of it actually comprises cropped screenshots from other platforms. This will entirely break the chain of trust which is held in the manifest, and thereby remove any signals of AI.
This is why it is important to expect the manifest to prove the authenticness of the authentic original, rather than to expect it to act as a label of fakeness that will somehow be meaningfully propagated from platform to platform.
Hence: this bill is attempting to close the wrong stables door after the elephant has bolted.

It has been my belief that tracking tags are restricted to be at least as large as a quarter not because of the battery involved, but because of the wavelength of the spectrum involved. True
Could you create a similar tracking tag in a smaller form factor, with a smaller battery, that might be able to fit in an eyeglass frame Because I would use that.
