A sports story published Monday, Dec. 9, 2024, on Page B-1 incorrectly reported the date for the upcoming Isleta New Mexico Bowl between TCU and Louisiana. The game will be played Saturday, Dec. 28, in Albuquerque at University Stadium.(TNS) — Every day millions of people share more intimate information with their accessories than they do with their spouse. Wearable technology — smartwatches, smart rings, fitness trackers and the like — monitors body-centric data such as your heart rate, steps taken and calories burned, and may record where you go along the way. Like Santa Claus, it knows when you are sleeping (and how well), it knows when you're awake, it knows when you've been idle or exercising, and it keeps track of all of it. People are also sharing sensitive health information on , including online mental health and counseling programs. Some women use period tracker apps to map out their monthly cycle. These devices and services have excited consumers hoping for better insight into their health and lifestyle choices. But the lack of oversight into how body-centric data are used and shared with third parties has prompted concerns from privacy experts, who warn that the data could be sold or lost through data breaches, then used to raise insurance premiums, discriminate surreptitiously against applicants for jobs or housing, and even perform surveillance. The use of wearable technology and medical apps surged in the years following the COVID-19 pandemic, but indicates that current laws offer little protection for consumers who are often unaware just how much of their health data are being collected and shared by companies. "I've been studying the intersections of emerging technologies, data-driven technologies, AI and human rights and social justice for the past 15 years, and since the pandemic I've noticed the industry has become hyper-focused on our bodies," said Mozilla Foundation technology fellow Júlia Keserű, who conducted the research. "That permeates into all kinds of areas of our lives and all kinds of domains within the tech industry." The report "From Skin to Screen: Bodily Integrity in the Digital Age" recommends that existing data protection laws be clarified to encompass all forms of bodily data. It also calls for expanding national health privacy laws to cover health-related information collected from health apps and fitness trackers and making it easier for users to opt out of body-centric data collections. Researchers have been raising alarms about health data privacy for years. Data collected by companies are often sold to data brokers or groups that buy, sell and trade data from the Internet to create detailed consumer profiles. Body-centric data can include information such as the fingerprints used to unlock phones, face scans from facial recognition technology, and data from fitness and fertility trackers, mental health apps and digital medical records. One of the key reasons health information has value to companies — even when the person's name is not associated with it — is that advertisers can use the data to send targeted ads to groups of people based on certain details they share. The information contained in these consumer profiles is becoming so detailed, however, that when paired with other data sets that include location information, it could be possible to target specific individuals, Keserű said. Location data can "expose sophisticated insights about people's health status, through their visits to places like hospitals or abortions clinics," Mozilla's report said, adding that "companies like Google have been reported to keep such data even after promising to delete it." revealed that data brokers were selling sensitive data on individuals' mental health conditions on the open market. While many brokers deleted personal identifiers, some provided names and addresses of individuals seeking mental health assistance, according to the report. In two public surveys conducted as part of the research, Keserű said, participants were outraged and felt exploited in scenarios where their health data were sold for a profit without their knowledge. "We need a new approach to our digital interactions that recognizes the fundamental rights of individuals to safeguard their bodily data, an issue that speaks directly to human autonomy and dignity," Keserű said. "As technology continues to advance, it is critical that our laws and practices evolve to meet the unique challenges of this era." Consumers often take part in these technologies without fully understanding the implications. Last month, that users submit X-rays, PET scans, MRIs and other medical images to Grok, the platform's artificial intelligence chatbot, to seek diagnoses. The issue alarmed privacy experts, but many X users heeded Musk's call and submitted health information to the chatbot. While X's privacy policy says that the company will not sell user data to third parties, it does share some information with certain business partners. Gaps in existing laws have allowed the widespread sharing of biometric and other body-related data. Health information provided to hospitals, doctor's offices and medical insurance companies is protected from disclosure under the , known as HIPAA, which established federal standards protecting such information from release without the patient's consent. But health data collected by many wearable devices and health and wellness apps don't fall under HIPAA's umbrella, said Suzanne Bernstein, counsel at Electronic Privacy Information Center. "In the U.S. because we don't have a comprehensive federal privacy law ... it falls to the state level," she said. But not every state has weighed in on the issue. Washington, Nevada and Connecticut all recently passed laws to provide safeguards for consumer health data. that aimed to require tech companies to adhere to strengthened privacy provisions regarding the collection, sharing, use or sale of consumer health data. In California, the California Privacy Rights Act regulates how businesses can use certain types of sensitive information, including biometric information, and requires them to offer consumers the ability to opt out of disclosure of sensitive personal information. "This information being sold or shared with data brokers and other entities hypercharge the online profiling that we're so used to at this point, and the more sensitive the data, the more sophisticated the profiling can be," Bernstein said. "A lot of the sharing or selling with third parties is outside the scope of what a consumer would reasonably expect." Health information has become a prime target for hackers seeking to extort healthcare agencies and individuals after accessing sensitive patient data. Health-related cybersecurity breaches and ransom attacks increased more than 4,000% between 2009 and 2023, targeting the booming market of body-centric data, which is expected to exceed $500 billion by 2030, according to the report. "Nonconsensual data sharing is a big issue," Keserű said. "Even if it's biometric data or health data, a lot of the companies are just sharing that data without you knowing, and that is causing a lot of anxiety and questions." ©milyon88 apk latest version 。

Donaldson Company, Inc. (NYSE:DCI) Shares Bought by Advisors Asset Management Inc.All the hard work the Vikings put in on Sunday afternoon at Soldier Field almost fell by the wayside after they failed to recover an onside kick in the final minute. That paved the way for Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos to send the game into overtime with a 48-yard field goal as time expired. ADVERTISEMENT As proud as head coach Kevin O’Connell was that the Vikings still managed to escape with a 30-27 overtime win, he also was irked that lack of execution on the onside kick nearly cost them. What went wrong? Though it looked like nothing more than a fluky bounce, it was actually a misread by tight end Johnny Mundt that resulted in the ball hitting him. Asked about the particular play, special teams coordinator Matt Daniels said as soon as Mundt realized it was going to be a watermelon kick, he should’ve attacked the ball rather than engaged in a block. “He’s got to have some awareness right there,” Daniels said. “He didn’t see where the ball was at.” The use of the watermelon kick has become much more common across the NFL over the past few seasons. It’s executed by placing the ball on its side and kicking the point to create a spinning motion. The hope is to create enough spin with the watermelon kick that the ball travels the required 10 yards. The only issue? The rules say the kicking team can’t touch any member of the receiving team on an onside kick until the ball crosses 10 yards. ADVERTISEMENT That’s why Daniels has stressed to his players the importance of attacking the ball in those situations. “That’s the No. 1 thing,” Daniels said. “As soon as we see it’s a watermelon kick, we are going to go get the ball.” After suffering a hamstring injury over the weekend, linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. has been placed on injured reserve. As a result, he will have to miss at least the next month, with the Vikings hoping he can be ready to return by the time the playoffs roll around. It’s a tough blow for the Vikings heading into the home stretch as Pace has developed into a key contributor on defense. As a way to add some depth amid the loss, the Vikings signed linebacker Jamin Davis to their active roster, poaching him from the Green Bay Packers, who had signed him to their practice squad. There might be some untapped potential in Davis considering the Washington Commanders selected him in the first round of the 2021 draft. He has totaled 282 tackles, seven sacks, an interception and a pair of forced fumbles across 50 NFL games. Additionally, the Vikings also activated edge rusher Gabe Murphy from injured reserve. ADVERTISEMENT The benefit of having veteran left tackle David Quessenberry on the roster is that he has proven capable of going into a game on short notice. After stepping up last month when star left tackle Christian Darrisaw went down with a knee injury, Quessenberry had his number called over the weekend when veteran left tackle Cam Robinson left the game with a foot injury. Though there were some ups and downs for Quessenberry in the game, his presence allowed the Vikings to continue to run their offense. “I thought he came in and played really well,” offensive coordinator Wes Phillips said. “The left side really wasn’t an issue with him in there. We weren’t thinking like, ‘Oh god. We’ve got to get chips over there. We’ve got to try to formation these things where we can help him out every play.’ We felt pretty comfortable with him felling in and playing that role.” After being cut by the Vikings over the weekend, cornerback Akayleb Evans was claimed off waivers by the Carolina Panthers. It will be a fresh start for Evans as he looks to get his career back on track. Though he started 15 games for the Vikings last season, Evans barely played at all on defense this season. He was buried on the depth chart behind veteran cornerbacks Stephon Gilmore, Byron Murphy Jr., and Shaq Griffin. Why didn’t it work out for Evans? ADVERTISEMENT “Sometimes it becomes a numbers situation,” defensive coordinator Brian Flores said. “He’s a talented player who has a place in this league. I wish him all the best in Carolina. He’s going to do a great job for them.” ______________________________________________________ This story was written by one of our partner news agencies.

Pune, Nov 30 (IANS) : Veteran social crusader, Dr Babasaheb Pandurang Adhav (96), alias Baba Adhav broke his 3-day long hunger strike to oppose EVMs after a galaxy of political leaders including Sharad Pawar and Uddhav Thackeray plus others met him here on Saturday evening. The weary-looking Dr Baba Adhav, a medico-cum-labour leader, received Nationalist Congress (SP) President Sharad Pawar, his state President Jayant R. Patil, Shiv Sena (UBT) President Uddhav Thackeray, party MP Sanjay Raut, and later Nationalist Congress Party President Ajit A. Pawar also dropped in at the agitation venue. Around 5 p.m., Dr Baba Adhav bowed to appeals from his supporters and accepted a glass of water offered by Thackeray, symbolising the end of his hunger agitation amidst claps and cheers. “There have been huge discrepancies in the voter turnout figures declared by the ECI, kept changing, the vote-counting processes were allegedly manipulated to give undue advantage to the outgoing MahaYuti, and related aspects. The verdict is an assault on democracy,” said Dr Baba Adhav earlier, speaking to the media. Asserting that the people have a right to know where their votes have actually gone, the frail, but firm, nonagenarian pointed out how the MahaYuti regime doled out cash to women (‘Ladki Bahin’) scheme just before the elections and undermined the state’s delicate financial condition, as Sharad Pawar, 83, nodded in agreement. “The government wants a democracy that gives it a monopoly without any Opposition (party). Therefore it is the duty and responsibility of all citizens to thwart this, and take a firm stance,” urged Dr Baba Adhav. Speaking on the occasion, Thackeray said that “not only the losers like us (Maha Vikas Aghadi), but even the winners (MahaYuti) leaders are coming here”. “Nobody, neither the winners nor the losers believe in the outcome of the state Assembly elections. We are stunned over how we lost, they are shocked at how they won. The reason is clear. ‘Satyameve Jayate’ was killed, but now you (Dr Baba Adha) have revived it and we are fully with you,” said Thackeray. The Shiv Sena (UBT) President said this agitation was like a spark but it would ignite into a huge blaze, and lauded Dr Baba Adhav for carrying out the agitation at his advanced age and “inspiring all of us” to continue the fight. “We have also seen and heard how money power was brutally used in the polls... All have watched the videos of (Bharatiya Janata Party) leader Vinod Tawde (in Palghar, on November 19). We have seen the shower of schemes. But what the MahaYuti did was to give anaesthesia to all its projects to complete its ‘power operation’ quickly,” said Thackeray without mincing words. He also called upon the top leaders of the MVA parties NCP (SP)-Shiv Sena (UBT)-Congress to follow in Dr Baba Adhav’s footsteps, and carry forward the fight against EVMs, even as the Election Commission of India (ECI) invited a Congress delegation to discuss its grievances (December 3) on the state poll outcome. The Shiv Sena (UBT) chief rued how the information on elections is not available under RTI, how people’s rights are being flouted, while the EVM-VVPAT receipt is visible, counting of the same is not allowed, thus preventing the people and candidates from knowing whether their vote got registered properly or not, leading to many doubts. Taking potshots at the MahaYuti for the huge delay in government formation, Thackeray said that after getting a brute majority, “instead of going to Raj Bhavan (for the oath), the caretaker CM has gone to his farmland,” and wondered what had gone wrong. “When the MVA government was due to be formed (in November 2019), the President’s rule was imposed... Now, (2024), the term of the legislature has expired, so why is the same not being done now? No one will answer these questions...There is complete uncertainty on the new regime, who could be the CM, ministers, portfolios, etc,” said Thackeray.Russian police raid Moscow nightclubs in LGBTQ+ crackdownZelensky demands response from allies as Putin threatens West with new missile

Prior to his tenure at Salk (2014-2024), O’Keefe was a freelance science writer and a postdoctoral fellow and staff scientist at the Fred Hutch Cancer Center in Seattle, where he conducted independent research characterizing the genes and signaling pathways that control tissue morphogenesis in fruit flies, a model organism in science. Morphogenesis is the biological process by which a cell, tissue, or organism adopts a particular shape during development. O’Keefe received his doctorate in neurosciences from the University of California San Diego and Bachelor of Sciences degree in biological sciences from Stanford University.Serbian authorities spyware on the phones of dozens of journalists and activists, Amnesty International said in a on Monday. In the document entitled “A Digital Prison: Surveillance and the suppression of civil society in Serbia,” the non-governmental organization cited digital forensic evidence and testimonies from activists who said they were hacked in recent months. This news comes as the Serbian government has allegedly been civil society, journalists, and environmental activists in response to growing anti-government sentiment, which recently has manifested in . According to the data presented in the report, the software was in most cases installed during police interrogations, arrest, or even informal conversations when the smart phones of the surveilled were confiscated. Serbian authorities allegedly used technologically advanced commercial spyware, such as and , which are specifically developed for law enforcement agencies to extract data from phones by circumventing passcodes. However, authorities allegedly also employed a previously unknown software called NoviSpy, which might be home-grown and can be used to extract sensitive data as well as to remote-control the microphone and camera on many Android devices. While the Serbian government has not responded to the findings of the research, Cellebrite vowed to investigate any use that would be violating human rights. While spyware is commonly developed for law enforcement to monitor organized crime, it has been increasingly used by governments to on their critics. In the EU, and have both been accused of purchasing and using this software to spy on journalists and activists.
