Morning all.

Good morning.

I came across this yesterday and found it helpful in explaining why the GDPR may eventually save us from the Supreme Court.


The Gist: Trans rights are Data rights

It's a bit long but worth it imo.

TL:DR

So it seems likely that this is the high water mark for the Imperial gender binary. The UK Supreme Court decision applies to one word in one act. But, without coming undone from the principles of data protection, the UK state can't lawfully take actions to process people's gender data in a way that ignores their lived experience in favour of their gender status at birth. If the government tries to operationalise the judgment more generally, the UK GDPR sits waiting for it like the troll under the bridge.

I want AK to come back and tell me how Labour are good and we should vote for them.

“We are watching the collapse of the international order in real time, and this is just the start,” says investigative journalist Carole Cadwalladr. In a searing talk, she decries the rise of the “broligarchy” — the powerful tech executives who are using their global digital platforms to amass unprecedented geopolitical power, dismantling democracy and enabling authoritarian control across the world. Her rallying cry: resist data harvesting and mass surveillance, and support others in a groundswell of digital disobedience. “You have more power than you think,” she says.

I don't like the word 'broligarchy' for those horrible tech bro's who featured in the front row at the Orange One's Inauguration, but it'll have to do until a better one comes along

Heretics !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meanwhile Starmer is too terrified to tax the broligarchy
