Privacy Guides<p>We all know services that require authentication can correlate your activity on that service with your account. This becomes particularly dangerous when that account is linked with payment information that could potentially link back to your real identity.</p><p>It doesn't have to be this way though: The Privacy Pass protocol presents a path forward for "blind" authentication, if more services adopt it.

Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"It’s a dangerous time for protest rights in the UK. The government has introduced a bill that would make it a criminal offence to conceal your identity at a protest.</p><p>The crime and policing bill establishes an offence if a person conceals their identity within a specifically designated area in England or Wales. That is, an area where the police believe that a protest is taking place, or is likely to take place, and that involves, or might involve, the “commission of offences” (people breaking the law).</p><p>These powers are preemptive and vague – how is the “likelihood” of a protest or offences determined? What specific “offences” does the bill refer to? What safeguards exist? Ultimately, the bill does not appear to place any real limits on the degree of discretion extended to the police.</p><p>The passage of this bill would have significant implications for the right to anonymity in public places. It is unparalleled among liberal democratic states, bringing UK practice into line with Russia, Hungary and China."</p><p><a href="https://theconversation.com/banning-face-coverings-expanding-facial-recognition-how-the-uk-government-and-police-are-eroding-protest-rights-252976" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">theconversation.com/banning-fa</span><span class="invisible">ce-coverings-expanding-facial-recognition-how-the-uk-government-and-police-are-eroding-protest-rights-252976</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/FacialRecognition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FacialRecognition</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Surveillance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Surveillance</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/PoliceState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PoliceState</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Anonymity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anonymity</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Biometrics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Biometrics</span></a></p>
