can have the operator erase personal data collected from the seek further dissemination and offer big data that has been collect it. do you think that would behi helpful? >> particular harms are two critical pieces for any privacy directive. i wonder if overly focusing on data portability is an issue. there is disbelief that the able to take platform and get to platform be is beneficial and increases the likelihood of data breach of the platform. in addition to data portability with a strong requirement of insecurity and data safeguards on each platform. >> thank you. mr. battelle come you brought up the issue of elections. is that right? so, the honest ads act is other billing doing with senator mccain and senator warner and not the book you what happened in the last election where there was no disclaimer requirement in no disclosure requirements and basically say you have to have the same rules with the tv ad for tv, print ad for print. some of the companies for some reason are doing it on c their own, which we truly appreciate. again, we will have a patc

sets, the data that you could procure from social networking sites was much more dense and actually much more reliable, to create a precise algorithm.>> a billionaire american supporter of trump funded a shell corporation, cambridge analytica, still run by foreign nationals, to take advantage of this research, this act -- this understanding, and gained access to 87 million americans facebook information and developed some of the algorithms that came out of that, i want to ask you, about your experience working with steve bannon, one of president trump senior campaign advisors, and the goals that he used cambridge analytica to achieve, was one of the goals to suppress voting or discourage certain individuals from voting? >> that was my understanding, yes. >> was voter suppression a service that people could order?>> yes. >> so steve bannon is running an organization where you could as a client request and contract voter suppression using this remarkable data set? >> i don't know if it was referenced

and the raw data. he said based on the work that he's done it is not [ indiscernible ] -- anyone who had access could have had access to all the data that they work with. and i know from the email exchange that we publish, the documents [ indiscernible ] work as well. there's a next step to be taken. during the campaign and that's that [ indiscernible ] all the information made available to them using the platform. so currently all available data was ready to be sent to breitbart. [ indiscernible ] they needed to do. you know from facebook that they found evidence of shared audience files on sel and i.t. campaigns that they had run and the correlation [ indiscernible ] and aiq said they had been given all the data by sel. [ indiscernible ] if they are, i am not sure the data was truly reflective of the nature of the relationship between aiq and [ indiscernible ]. >> i think as i explained to mr. chairman, was that the example that i gave you was that it's not -- it would not be unusual for kombucha anal

did it share any of the data, or is it possible that russia acquired any of its data on americans?>> in sending the white paper, and discussions that i had with alexander nix about what he was speaking to the company about, i know that the scale the data, the location of the data, was made known, and also, that dr. kogan was involved in that data collection, project, and the concern that i have is that if you were intending on acquiring the data, even if you are not intending to acquire it with the willing participation of cambridge analytica, what was made known was that this data could have easily been acquired by something as easy as a keylogger on his computer, when he was in russia. >>> senator kennedy? >> dr. hirsch, i don't really have a question, but i will come back to you five-time, if what you're saying is that people in america are not persuadable or persuaded by advertising, i think that is rubbish. i think some really smart people spend $200 billion, $206 billion last year on advertising. and i hear kids all the time while grown, saying dilly dilly , they didn't just

user state is -- user's data is in the file. i would be interested in hearing your thoughts on user control. should facebook users be able to see their personal data containing all of the personal information the company knows about them? >> my answer to that is absolutely. there is a big difference between getting a cd-rom file or a stack of paper or even a digital file that is not machine-readable. it contains prohibitions on used -- in segregation and use by other third parties. at a token that can be freely passed to any third party with permissions you can set as the individual to create more value. what i was suggesting in my written testimony is an economy where we can take this kind of -- these kinds of tokens -- whether they're from small companies, we can create new kinds of value by combining that data. i believe that an economy that has that kind of free thought -- flow of information is -- and is also based on the individual is a society that is much better than what we have. pres. trump: -- senator fischer: can a fa

scrape data from social media platforms and they're misusing the data it's being alleged that this data was used to. raid an election in america and twenty sixteen so how do you deal with the fact that at the moment data got a p r problem that you know if i can put it in those terms yeah you can and i'd like to make that more specific centralized data has a p.r. problem right it's something that's out of control the end user people are giving away their data for free to facebook and other big companies google who are kind of taking advantage for that but of course that's their business model that is actually the current and only business model of free services on the internet could that be changed could we put the person the source of the data back in control so that they could decide who gets access to the data how it gets monetized maybe they earn a share of that all this is possible with technology but it hasn't been possible in previous generation products here is a question. you probably don't know the answer to this question but i'll ask the question anyway you know it's been esti

would you describe the individual facebook user data that cambridge analytical gained accessthrough the personality test app that you designed? >> senator, we provided them approximately 30 million people's worth of data. the data had people's name, location, had their birth dates, their gender, and then it listed a number of predicted personality traits things like ext agreeableness. we gave page likes. they chose about 500 page likes from a list of about 550 million. so we checked. it was a small percentage of the total page likes. >> your testimony and past statements clearly indicate you question the effectiveness of the facebook user data to microtarget voters in political campaigns. would you provide additional details of the legitimate scientific scrutiny described in your testimony regarding the ctiveness of using this data? >> absolutely. so, to be honest going in i thought it would be a lot more effective. part of the issue is most psychologists who do research we're not studying the specific person. we're studying people in general. in this project we had to find out how accu

collection of data from the profile. however, facebook rules for third-party applications allow users to consent on behalf of their facebook friends for their profile information to be collected as well. this arrangement allowed this application to collect data from tens of millions of facebook users by getting a consent of only 300,000 users. the application also shared this information with a data analytics firm called cambridge analytica , which worked with political campaigns on targeting advertising. it is alleged that other applications participated similar collection practices but facebook changed the terms of service to prohibit this practice in 2015. what facebook sought from cambridge analytica and developers of personally tested applications that user data in question was deleted, media reports indicated that they were not. following the cause of concern from congress and public alike, the federal trade commission confirmed in march that the agency was investigating the privacy practices and the company's compl

wiley described that data obtained via the foundation data of the company, which may have collected dataon up to 87 million users. it was also clear that there's been action by facebook following these revelations or allegations. so do you want to -- what you'll perhaps do in your statement do you clarify or amend now the evidence that you gave in february with respect to data supplied by gsr and dr. coven? >> thank you. i'm grateful for that opportunity. i thought you would like to continue with the very short statement on this. and so we'll do that and then we can move on to questions from there. look, clearly i accept that some of my offices could have been clearer. but i assure you that i did not intend to mislead you. it was my firm impression that mr. collins questions were focused on whether we were currently in possession of data from gsr following the research they carried out in which i was very clear in telling the committee about. my belief was and remains that we deleted all such data, licensed in good faith from gsr under that research contract. so i answered no to his ques

we can technically access the data. we have accesses and controls in place, but the policy side we are still working through how we get everyone to think about where the future is in terms of learning from ta. yeah. thank you. >> madam chair, i yield back. >> thank you, and i now rec mize mr. rohrabacher. >> thank you very much and thank you to our witnesses today. let me just -- this is not directly on technology, but it's dealing with the v.a. issues. some of the things that you're describing that have motivated you to focus on trying to find technological solutions like depression, sense of hopelessness, et cetera, a lot that have can be traced, some of us believe, to the use of op opiates by the v.a. some of us believe that the v.a. has taken the easy way out simply by prescribing opiates to somebody with a problem which wh you supply that kind of a prle you're going to end up with someone with serious problems. now, do - this question. should the v.a. be permitted to use cannabis? should they have that as an option

in addressing the data around suspension, we would like to know what data has been collected around students being sent out of the classroom, voluntary home suspension when the parents are being asked to keep a student home, how many times have police been called to sites for students? how can we capture the entire picture of what's going on at our schools with less than complete data? lastly, we would like to highlight the need for more representation of african american staff in the classroom and in supportive role does the our school site. a safe and supportive community can never exist if it doesn't hold a place for everyone in the community. and these issues were raised back in may when the joint advisory committees all reported here to the board of ed. just every single advisory committee agreed for the need for more implicit bias training. i went on-line for some data. we ha we have over 4600 staff members, yet only 1,000 people have been trained in safety care, and only 310 have been trained in implicit bias. that's 6.7% of our staff, and we wonder why 40% of the office discipline re

this is the exact point where the data centre is going to be sunk and on the ocean floor is a cable bringingshore and connecting it to the wider internet. a day on, with conditions in this sometimes rough stretch of sea very calm, the painstaking operation to put the data centre on the ocean floor is under way. 0rkney was chosen partly because it is a centre for pioneering renewable energy research, generating electricity from wind and wave power. 0rkney's produced over 120% of its electricity needs from renewables every year since 2012. so this is a place that's basically running on renewables, and so bringing a project like this to orkney makes sense, because it'll be basically being powered by renewables. the data centre is heading ever so slowly to the bottom of the ocean. at the control room on shore, they are getting ready to power it up. now, microsoft will monitor it for up to five years. this could prove to be the future of data storage, or maybe just a tourist attraction for the fish. rory cellan—jones, bbc news, 0rkney. now that virtually everyone has a mobile phone, what should w

the third area is data analysis. these are the recommendations. there should be increased strategic district activity levels to aid our strategic plan. once again a district team with input and feedback from our site leaders have identified key strategics and progress measures for pitch. i'll be talking about that in a few minutes. the second recommendation was the district board needs to establish a very clear picture of what data. we talked about that earlier. the community has the ability to access data through our links on our website, but the bigger picture here is we want to make sure the board is establishing what data we want year over year so we can actually measure the progress of the district and the progress of staff in meeting the needs of our students and families. the third recommendation in this area, there should be

i think what people don't realize is data follows them around all of the time. re constantly generating data from what light switches we turn on, if we have a networked home, to when we turn our nest thermostat, to when we plug in our ev car. christy wyatt: you know, i meet someone, i remember their name, i write their name down, i put their name in a system, now it's data, right? and so, it's happening constantly, all the time. the thing that's changed is that data has become a form of currency, a s wcuency comes , and regulations, and risks, and concerns. so, it's a new world. laura: i have a question, since some privacy rules are changing in europe, ansome of the u.s. companies are changing their u.s. policies as a result. the one part of these privacy policies that we constantly find covers sort of ae rangof acty tha for the consumer and a report is always hard to figure out is the one where it says we may share your information with third parties me service better fomarketing, and it's just this kind of blanket statement, and hides a nest of things. and do y

does that mean the data analysts will become the new star players? t this year's world cup finals in russia, data is set to play a bigger role than ever before. like it or not, data is already an integral part of modern football. you can't watch a televised game without being bombarded by all kinds of statistics. for the first time, fifa are providing an all—in—one technical package so technical staff can analyse data throughout matches in real—time. the snappily titled electronic tracking and performance system — or etps — will provide data on player metrics, such as distances run, speed, and position information. crucially, each of the 32 countries competing in the tournament will be provided with two tablets — one for data analyst in the stands, who will be able to communicate with the second device user on the bench, possibly a coach or assistant manager. we are using an optical tracking system. so we have optical tracking cameras in all of the stadiums. we know where the players and ball are at any time of the match. we have different metrics ava

the space data and there are other companies providing data that feed the comspock and the data. these can be done commercially. they can be done privately. the question is going back to what general hyten was talking about earlier is who controls, who manages the data set, the catalog that is definitive. and ultimately can it be enhanced with commercial and those kind of things. one model, as i've said earlier, is you could have multiple commercial companies and/or non-profits or universities competing to provide ssa and stm to space operators. and the reason you want competition is because it drives down price, increases innovat n innovation. again, you get better data and more data. that's a process that works. and ultimately the people that pay would be the operators. it's also true we have to balance this with the idea that we don't want to drive people to other countries for their space situational awareness by having people in the united states pay for subscription or pay for fees. so this is a balancing act. we want the united states of america to be pre eminent when it co

we don't have the data how much they have improved. this would help us be a little bit more intentional about to the attendants and what that looks like, and their grades, their participation, as well as the anecdotal information outside. this person would be school district personnel so they can have access in a way that outside personnel couldn't and they would help inform us as we build this up to understand if there's a connection between what we know happened at home versus what happened in school. >> i would just -- >> sorry, if i may, there's a lot of conversations happening in the room and i would appreciate if you want to have a conversation, if you would step outside while we are listening to this. thank you. >> thank you so much. i will be brief. on the dates of peace, i would say we've made progress and there's a lot of things where we could have a separate conversation about what we are doing, i don't know the school district systems, but i have a three month old daughter and i would say, you know, if she is off track, i wi

i sit in the rooms on data and integrated data. the short answer is that is not a barrier to what were talking about doing. something we work through but i don't want to give you the impression that is stopping us. >> it people just try to throw up the barriers and you have to keep telling them know. so let's say i'm placed under arrest, he -- it's a moderately serious crime, enough that he will take me in, he won't immediately divert me. i come to the assessment center, what happens to me? >> what should happen is these assessments take place as you walk in. we don't know anything about the people in the jail because we don't all gather that information and put it in a database where we can get it out. the sheriff cannot tell you generally what you would want to know about the 2800 people you have in your system. so we all know who's in the jail and what's going on. if they're going to move forward in the process then we know that we have to trickle the mental health folks, we have to let the social workers have access to that info

you only want the data sets that are going to tell you about your key risk, the ransomware, your suspicious activities and that thing should be a lot more flexible now working with only those limited data sets to where you can get the timely information you need. you can do the proper correlations and you can make sure you're not getting distracted by all the other things. lastly on the storage side, , io this in you because i think with security intelligence and you start talk about getting to a predicted state, there's a big correlation between security analytics and data analytics or data science. i put this in here specifically because in indiana we have been able to explore and do some things around data analytics and data science on the human population, health and human services area. and the architecture that is in place for those types of systems are tuned and they are use case specific for very large data sets that have to have algorithms run across them to produce these predictive analytics. that technology basically what we're trying to do when you were talking about security da

deregulation, we are beginning to see theffects of this in the data. in this first slide, one of my favorite ways to look at the summary of how the economy is doing, looking at the growth over the previous year. you may recall when the president ran for office, when he came in, and i started almost a year ago, looking ahead to the three % growth, everyone said no, we got a new normal for the blue lines that you see during the obama year where we've got gross in the once maybe up to two if we are lucky but we could never get % growth again but in the latest data we've had, we got growth year after year that has a smidgen less than three %. the number now is the second arter gdp high enough to make the year growth 3.1-3.2. there's been a clear trend break. there's the three % growth that they use to expect, let's go to the next slide, please. in this chart i would like to show something that we again spoke about in the fall. one of the reasons why we had such low growth in the previous administration it was so antibusiness and discouraging capital informa
