Buongiorno, una volta da destra e da sinistra avrebbero gridato allo "stato di polizia", oggi, dall'alto e dal basso, queste notizie sono trattate alla stregua della _moda_, collezione autunno inverno 2023/24; perché tutti _devono_ sapere cosa va di moda.
Bloomberg: «Google User Data Has Become a Favorite Police Shortcut» By Julia Love and Davey Alba September 28, 2023 at 4:01 AM UTC Articolo completo: https://archive.ph/p6jcc --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Investigators increasingly use warrants to obtain location and search data from Google, even for nonviolent cases—and even for people who had nothing to do with the crime. [...] Raleigh PD sent Google a search warrant demanding a list of people who were in the neighborhood when the gear was stolen. They also secured a judge’s order for the company to identify anyone who Googled “Motorola APX 6000,” the model of the radio, and similar phrases in the days after the device went missing. Google handed over user location data in response. [...] Rather than naming a suspect, law enforcement identifies basic parameters—a set of geographic coordinates or search terms—and asks Google to provide hits, essentially generating a list of leads. [...] Police have been using versions of this method for decades. Security camera footage and cell tower data from phone companies all have the potential for invasions of privacy that go beyond searching a suspect’s trunk. But the sheer volume of information available from Google about where tens of millions of people have been and what they’ve searched for is unprecedented. [...] Google says it received a record 60,472 search warrants in the US last year, more than double the number from 2019. The company provides at least some information in about 80% of cases. Although many large technology companies receive requests for information from law enforcement at least occasionally, police consider Google to be particularly well suited to jump-start an investigation with few other leads. [...] the president for global affairs at Google and its parent company, Alphabet Inc. “In a significant percentage of cases, we go back and forth with the government to try and narrow warrants.” [...] Cooperation between American businesses and police traces as far back as the days of the telegraph. [...] A Google team known as Legal Investigations Support, or LIS, reviews search warrants and subpoenas. Working with Google’s legal counsel, an employee might process 80 to 90 requests a week. Many LIS specialists are only a few years out of college; some view the role as a way to test the waters before applying to law school. [...] “You’re dealing with government demands, so these aren’t just optional,” says Richard Salgado, who led Google’s division of law enforcement and information security for more than 13 years. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Riascoltate *bene* cosa dice l'alto dirigente: «we go back and forth with the government to try and narrow warrants»; "govenrnment", non "judge". Google e tutte le più importanti aziende di telecomunicazione dal telegrafo in poi sono (state) un "asset" del governo USA... ma /solo/ per tutte le questioni di sicurezza nazionale :-O --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- About 1 in 5 location warrants were for offenses such as theft and vandalism. A detective in Scottsdale, Arizona, got one in search of somebody accused of stealing a Louis Vuitton handbag. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Il cerchio si chiude: si parla di alta moda. :D --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Some officials say that the technique is becoming less effective as more criminals learn about it and that many of them simply turn off the setting on their devices or leave their phones at home before committing a crime. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Mavà, non mi dite che tutto 'sto circo NON serve contro i criminali, quelli veri! :-O --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Roy Schahrer, a salesman in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler, was questioned by police after Google data put him near the scene of a shooting in 2021. Cops ruled him out as a suspect after determining he’s “a routine cat feeder” in the neighborhood --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Oh che tenerezza: se siete gattari potete dormire sonni tranquilli... alla fine sempre lì si torna, ai gattini. Saluti, 380° P.S.: «he likens to “an electronic fingerprint that you can find at the scene.”»; mumble: impronte, *digitali*... uh: un nipotino di Edmund Locard! :-) -- 380° (Giovanni Biscuolo public alter ego) «Noi, incompetenti come siamo, non abbiamo alcun titolo per suggerire alcunché» Disinformation flourishes because many people care deeply about injustice but very few check the facts.
