10 anni dopo Snowden: alcune cose vanno meglio, per altre stiamo ancora lottando
Il 20 maggio 2013, un giovane appaltatore del governo con un adesivo EFF sul suo laptop è sbarcato da un aereo a Hong Kong portando con sé prove che confermavano, tra le altre cose, che il governo degli Stati Uniti stava conducendo una sorveglianza di massa su scala globale. Ciò che è seguito sono state settimane di rivelazioni - e declassificazioni ufficiali - mentre Edward Snowden ha lavorato con alcune delle principali testate giornalistiche del mondo per rivelare fatti critici sulla National Security Agency che aspirava le comunicazioni online delle persone, l'attività su Internet e i tabulati telefonici, sia all'interno che all'esterno gli Stati Uniti....

Legge sui dati - Per la Commissione Europea le garanzie sui segreti commerciali devono essere un'eccezione, non una regola
La mobilitazione della scorsa settimana di giganti dell'industria tedesca come Siemens e SAP sembra aver fatto scalpore nell'esecutivo dell'UE, non sorprende, dal momento che la presidente Ursula von der Leyen è stata costantemente sensibile alle esigenze del suo paese d'origine.
La Commissione è stata molto attiva nei negoziati della nuova legge sui dati, compensando in parte la mancanza di leadership della presidenza svedese. Sebbene il trilogo della prossima settimana sia destinato solo a chiudere il capitolo della condivisione dei dati B2G, laddove il Consiglio non desidera limitare l'ambito di applicazione ai soli dati personali, mercoledì la presidenza ha dichiarato al COREPER che intende ancora chiudere il fascicolo prima della fine del suo semestre e nessuno Stato membro ha indicato linee rosse. Nel frattempo, la Commissione deve ancora presentare un documento informale con un compromesso su come affrontare la questione dei segreti commerciali.

Secondo un nuovo documento datato 12 maggio e visionato da EURACTIV, la maggioranza del Consiglio dei ministri dell'UE sembra favorire l'espansione della scansione dei messaggi privati alle comunicazioni audio per rilevare materiale di abusi sessuali su minori.
Le implicazioni dell'estensione dell'ambito degli ordini di rilevamento all'audio sono potenzialmente di vasta portata, a partire dal fatto che si sta ancora determinando se ciò riguarderà anche i messaggi vocali o le telefonate.
Secondo una fonte del settore delle telecomunicazioni che ha parlato con EURACTIV sotto condizione di anonimato, includere le comunicazioni audio sarebbe estremamente negativo, non solo per la privacy delle conversazioni ma anche per la sicurezza dell'intera rete.

Digital Bridge: Transatlantic wins — Mozilla’s chief — Twitter to-do list
POLITICO’s weekly transatlantic tech newsletter for global technology elites and political influencers.

By MARK SCOTT

DIGITAL BRIDGE IS COMING AT YOU a day early this week. I’m Mark Scott, POLITICO’s chief technology correspondent, and if you’ve got time, I’m testifying to a British parliamentary committee on May 23 on digital competition regulation (watch along here) and speaking on a panel, the same day, on trade policy in the digital era (watch that here.) Warning: It’s pretty much the only time you’ll see me in a suit.
OK, let’s get down to business:
— Washington and Brussels are borrowing heavily from each other on social media and artificial intelligence rules.
— The Mozilla Foundation’s Mark Surman on why he’s optimistic on tech rulemaking — and why politicians need to keep going on AI laws.
— Twitter has a new chief executive. Here are three urgent policy areas that Linda Yaccarino needs to sink her teeth into.
EU-US RELATIONS: RULE-SETTER VS. RULE-TAKER
I CONSIDER THE UNITED STATES AND THE EUROPEAN UNION to be frenemies. Both partners and rivals, Brussels and Washington don’t always have the easiest relationship. But even I have to admit that on a series of thorny digital policymaking issues, the transatlantic relationship is, dare I say it, actually working. There are still some massive problems — U.S. views on European “protectionism,” and European views on U.S. “corporate capture.” But the upcoming EU-U.S. Trade and Technology Council (TTC) summit at the end of the month offers two glaring examples of how both sides are influencing each other.
First, social media rules. Ever since Republicans took back the U.S. House of Representatives, any form of checks on these platforms has become a no-go area — mostly because these politicians incorrectly believe any restrictions are anathema to the First Amendment. And yet, the U.S. is about to sign up to (nonbinding) commitments at the end of the month that align almost exactly with the EU’s new social media rules, known as the Digital Services Act. In fact, the team implementing that legislation within the 27-country bloc was involved in writing the upcoming TTC communiqué.
“The European Union and the United States consider that online platforms should exercise greater responsibility in ensuring that their services contribute to an online environment that protects, empowers and respects minors,” EU and U.S. officials are expected to say later this month. “We share a common view that data access for researchers is key to help understand systemic risks on online platforms and to advance our understanding of the online ecosystem.” Both those commitments draw almost exclusively from Brussels’ new content rules — and mark a clear sign that Washington is willing to take on some, if not all, of those suggestions.
There’s more. The EU and the U.S. will also unveil (again, nonbinding) principles for “transparent and accountable online platforms” that borrow heavily from Europe’s new social media rulebook. That includes greater protection for kids online and a series of pledges to give outsiders better access to these networks, all in the name of transparency. The goal, according to three EU and U.S. officials, is to announce some form of DSA-lite data-access (voluntary) rules for researchers at the next TTC summit in the U.S. at the end of the year. That would parallel similar, mandatory offerings for these academics that are baked into Europe’s unfolding rules.
But this is not just a one-way street. As part of an extended “Joint Roadmap for Truthworthy AI and Risk Management” (not the catchiest title), U.S. and EU officials will likewise take a page — or many pages — from guidelines recently published by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. The so-called AI Risk Management Framework lays out four specific pathways for governing the emerging technology to both mitigate potential harms and provide space for innovation.
That falls into four buckets of policymaking — and extends to the latest craze of generative AI that will also get a name-check at the transatlantic tech and trade gathering in Northern Sweden on May 30-31. Suggestions include the specific metrics needed to measure so-called trustworthy AI, or pledges to use the tech for good; how best to check that companies are upholding such standards; and other technical specifications that agencies like NIST do very well, and where the EU, for all its policymaking know-how, often falls down due to a lack on in-house expertise within its institutions.
The goal is not to create a one-size-fits-all approach to AI, but to instead offer voluntary measurement tools and risk-management techniques that, while immensely boring, are crucial if the technology can quickly develop, globally, with the necessary checks in place. Think of it as a set of best practices, and not prescriptive regulation. One caveat: It’s still unclear whether the TTC’s AI Roadmap will comply with Europe’s Artificial Intelligence Act and its requirements to clamp down on “harmful AI.” If that isn’t cleared up, then this whole transatlantic bonhomie could, again, be back to square one.
THE ‘CAKE-AND-EAT-IT’ APPROACH TO DIGTAL RULEMAKING
MARK SURMAN, HEAD OF THE MOZILLA FOUNDATION, the nonprofit organization behind the Firefox browser that advocates for responsible technology and regulation, has a message for politicians: Just keep swimming. As policymakers around the world freak out about generative artificial intelligence — and certain regions and countries push ahead with their own tech regulation on everything from privacy to social media to digital competition — the Canadian feels pretty confident that things are moving in the right direction.
“Keep going on the DSA and enforcement. Keep going on GDPR and making enforcement better. Keep going on the AI Act and figuring out how general purpose AI is regulated,” he told me via Zoom from his California headquarters, in reference to the litany of EU digital proposals to police everything from online content to privacy rights to AI. “All this stuff is happening in terms of regulation, exactly at the right time and at an appropriate speed, in my view.”
For Surman, whose public policy colleagues play a central role in how Western civil society has pushed back against Big Tech players’ dominance of parts of the online landscape, it’s only natural that lawmaking will lag behind fast-developing technologies that track progress in months, if not weeks. “Now is the time to go hard on regulation. It’s not dramatically too late. The DSA and DMA are much more mature runs about at how you think about these topics than the GDPR was,” he added in reference to Brussels’ online content and antitrust reboots, known as the Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act, respectively. GDPR refers to the General Data Protection Regulation, the bloc’s revamped privacy laws that came into force almost five years ago.
His take isn’t that we should be complacent in how new rules are created around technology. Instead, Surman prefers to take a “cake-and-eat-it” approach to policymaking: Let’s use all the existing rules and build out new regulation, too, to capture potential digital downsides that lawmakers have yet to get their heads around. “We either have the right stuff or we’re working on the right stuff,” the Mozilla chief executive said. “There’s a shift in our thinking that isn’t in the (policymaking) that’s already moving. Work around collective rights, collective benefits, collective harms, and how data and AI fit into that is needed, too.”
Unlike other policy wonks, Surman also runs a multibillion-dollar tech business — where he can put his money where his mouth is. And that means Mozilla is now moving from just advocating for so-called trustworthy AI to embedding the principles of fairness, accountability and transparency into how it builds and invests in digital products. The nonprofit has set aside $35 million in venture capital funding for fledgling firms in that sector and has earmarked additional money for in-house research and development to create AI-focused tools that embrace trustworthy AI principles.
“If AI is defining the next era of our digitized work, and we want our values to show up in that we need both a market-based strategy and a movement-based strategy,” Surman said. “Building AI, especially into consumer products, like Firefox, people are doing it really fast and irresponsible way. As we explore the market-based piece of it, there’s a reason why we’re going cautiously. There’s a reason why we’re starting with safety and inclusion-focused technologies and not rushing to the end with some big consumer play.”
Mozilla’s boss acknowledges that the slow-and-steady approach likely means the nonprofit will never compete with OpenAI and Google’s Bard in the generative AI hysteria. His pitch is about building the means to rein in some of the risks created by these new tools — mostly because most businesses aren’t worrying about the downsides to the technology. “It’s not about creating the alternative to GPT7,” he said in reference to OpenAI’s technology. “A lot of the leverage is going to be around the edges and on top of these things at this point, and not actually in trying to be as a main competitor and owning one of the (AI) models.”
BY THE NUMBERS

TWITTER’S POLITICAL PRIORITIES
I’M NOT ONE TO GIVE OUT BUSINESS ADVICE. And with Twitter’s faltering business model, its new chief executive, Linda Yaccarino, has enough on her plate. Yet the policymaking world is my bread and butter, so here are some thorny political questions the former NBCUniversal ad executive needs to get ahead of as lawmakers worldwide ask increasingly difficult question of the Blue Bird.
1. What’s your relationship like with governments? Historically, Twitter has been more willing than others to go to the mattresses with governments over things like censorship and free speech, including multiple lawsuits filed against India’s repeated checks on social media. That approach has now shifted under Elon Musk’s tenure as chief executive, including the blocking of content from opposition leaders in Turkey ahead of last weekend’s nationwide election. At some point, Twitter has to decide: How strongly does it want to defend free speech, and at what cost?
2. Who do I call to talk at Twitter? During last year’s mass layoffs, Musk fired almost all of the company’s public policy executives. That means those long-standing relationships with policymakers worldwide were cut off, almost overnight. In Europe, for instance, European Commission officials don’t know to whom to turn within Twitter to ask about how the company will comply with the bloc’s new social media rules. The tech giant needs to rebuild those bridges fast, and not just in Europe.
3. How are you handling the 2024 election tsunami? Next year, the U.S., the EU, the United Kingdom and India (among others) will all hold elections. Frankly, it’s going to be shitshow of misinformation, political skullduggery and potential foreign interference. Twitter remains woefully underprepared to handle its role in these upcoming votes — and is fast losing political goodwill as an impartial place where people can voice their (often politically heated) opinions. Coming up with a comprehensive global election strategy needs to be a top priority.
WONK OF THE WEEK
THE ANNUAL G7 SUMMIT gets underway on Friday in Hiroshima, Japan — the annual gathering of leaders from the West’s largest democracies. We’re focusing on Taro Kono, Japan’s digital transformation minister, and former foreign affairs and defense minister under the country’s now-deceased former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
Tokyo has focused on boosting the free flow of data and pushing Western norms on AI under its G7 presidency (check out the summary of the recent meeting of the country’s digital ministers). Kono, a Georgetown graduate who began his career in the electronics industry in the early 1990s, is spending a lot of his time digitizing his ministry’s work and even boasts his own lifesize robot avatar.
“I asked ChatGPT who Kono Taro is and he came back with the wrong answer,” Kono told Bloomberg earlier this month in reference to the generative AI tool. “So you need to be careful.”
THEY SAID WHAT, NOW?
“Video games attract billions of users all over the world. In such a fast-growing and dynamic industry, it is crucial to protect competition and innovation. Our decision represents an important step in this direction,” said Margrethe Vestager, Europe’s competition chief, when announcing that Brussels had approved Microsoft’s $68 billion takeover of Activision — a deal that has been blocked by British antitrust authorities and faces a separate legal challenge by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.
WHAT I’M READING
— Sam Altman, chief executive of OpenAI, explained why regulation was needed for this emerging technology that protects people while also allowing industry to innovate. Read his U.S. Senate testimony here.
— Italy’s competition authority accused Apple of abusing its dominant position in the app market to favor its own services over those of rivals. Read more here.
— Europe’s AI Act is a good first start, but the recent draft from the European Parliament misses the mark on clearly defining what risk management is needed for specific AI use cases, according to Philipp Hacker, a law professor, via LinkedIn.
— Governments from Washington to Brussels to Beijing are increasingly embedding themselves into the technical standard-setting of emerging technologies in ways that bring geopolitics into wonky policy discussions worldwide, claims Tim Ruhlig from the German Council on Foreign Relations.
— U.S. agencies including the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued a joint statement on enforcing existing rules that related to AI “automated systems.”
— France’s privacy regulator announced an action plan on AI that includes upholding data protection standards, auditing AI systems for potential harm, and better understanding how the technology affects society. Read more here.
