Test and trace apps can open up the world. But how do we maintain privacy with our location and health data constantly being collected? Researchers from our Computational Privacy Group will be taking your questions next week as part of #ImperialLates ow.ly/FkZd50BbC6j

I am a computer privacy researcher investigating test and trace apps: Ask Me Anything!

Andrea Gadotti, a researcher in Computational Privacy, discusses his explorations of test and trace apps in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic during this Reddit AMA – part of Imperial Lates Online:...

Privacy researchers, govts, and tech companies work on contact tracing apps, hoping to curb down the pandemic. We often hear that 56, 60, or 70% of the population would need to install these apps. These are likely incorrect reads of a paper published by Ferretti et al. Thread ⤵️

Contact tracing app could halt spread of Covid-19 if downloaded by 60 per cent of the population

An Oxford professor working on the project says the app could be ready 'within weeks'

These aren't normal times but calling this data anonymous is just misleading: "The controls include removing identifiers such as name and address and replacing these with a pseudonym." This is the literal definition of pseudonymous data art. 4(5) GDPR. 1/2

The stand-up of the Data Lab this morning was kind of funny, _everyone_ was fighting with a different aspect of getting her/his @awscloud #lambda function working (CloudWatch monitoring, Resource Based Policy, Python library versions). #Serverless for the win :-) #MachineLearning

The propagation of fake news can only be understood by adressing the problem through different angles. Psychology, political science, linguistics and many others... that’s why we need more cross disciplinary research centres. Thanks @BovetAlexandre for making this crystal clear.

Portability is important but data interoperability is what we really need. Often, you want to keep using one service but give another provider access to your data to offer you a complementary or completely different service

On a first read this law would be a substantial improvement over the status quo. Data portability is important, and even more, "delegability" as a way of squaring the need for strong privacy options with the inevitable confusion of trying to set and exercise them.

Replying to @LubosKuklis
@LubosKuklis hits the nail on the head: “Research & transparency are KEY for accountability on #SocialMedia platforms” please take notes @facebook @Twitter @Google. How can we #fightfakenews and #disinformation if we don’t know what the rules are? – at Brussels, Belgium

Challenge accepted! Here is a transition between surface area of US counties and their associated population. This arguably provides a much more accurate reading of the situation. @observablehq notebook: observablehq.com/@karimdouie… #HowChartsLie #DataViz #d3js

Anonymity takes (a lot!) more than removing personal identifiers. Caution and strict security measures are necessary. Short piece in @nature with @MaximeTaquet nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
