dopo 14 ANNI ho incontrato Julian #Assange da uomo libero
in questo articolo in #inglese per #ComputerWeekly racconto la persona che ho ritrovato dopo 14 anni e perché se perderò la causa civile con Dipartimento di Stato USA, la verità sarà sepolta
#ComputerWeekly
In my article for #ComputerWeekly I explain there's an ongoing crucial #FOIA litigation which I'm fighting in US:the US is trying to keep cables, memos,emails abt #JA & #WikiLeaks CLASSIFIED,including “how various agencies were tracking his movements”
I strongly recommend this article by #CormacKehoe #ComputerWeekly on the #Irish police allegedly spying the investigative reporter #DonalMacIntyre
questa settimana sul media inglese #ComputerWeekly ho ricostruito quello che le autorità inglesi del #CrownProsecutionService hanno dovuto rivelare a me e alla mia avvocata @estelledehon sulla distruzione di documenti chiave sul caso #JA
"In a complaint to the Investigatory Powers Tribunal,RP claimed the #vettingService was disorganised"
interesting article by #WilliamGoodwin #ComputerWeekly on a tech specialist who filed a complaint against the #MI6
"A judicial review[..] quashed arrest warrants issued by the Police Service of Northern Ireland[..]against the journalists in 2019 in a sting op intended to identify a confidential source who leaked info used in a documentary"

molto importante:
10 media di primo piano, dal #Guardian, #FT a #ComputerWeekly,sono ricorsi alla corte per opporsi a udienza segreta #Apple-ministero Interni UK (Home Office). Invano, purtroppo. Udienza segreta
[inglese]
I recommend #DuncanCampbell's article in #ComputerWeekly: more relevant than ever, in the middle of the #HomeOffice's war on end-to-end cryptography
ieri sera arriva questo giornalista inglese di razza, #DuncanCampbell, e su #ComputerWeekly rivela la nuova puntata della guerra alla crittografia end-to-end del ministero degli Interni di Sua Maestà
#DanMcQuillan has written a brilliant article in #ComputerWeekly about the uk labour party’s action plan to support and promote #AI. The article is mich broader than just the UK, and is equally applicable to any country/state that plans to invest billions on AI infrastructure…. they shouldnt. I would like to add that not all AI is bad, but 99% of the money being invested currently is doing much more harm than good.

@simon_lucy @ChrisMayLA6 fair point but at least it's experimenting with alternatives.
My personal beef with the #BBC goes back to the merger of News department with Current Affairs. The first being about garnering facts, the Second about garnering and promoting some Opinions.
Hence, the false equivalence that still dogs reporting of anthropogenic planetary heating, Brexit, and Post Office reportage for over 20 years.
It appears the last bastions of news in UK are #privateeye & #ComputerWeekly.
Fujitsu Horizon bug log from 1999 recording the discrepancy doubling error featured in the Mr Bates programme

If you've only (relatively) recently become fully aware of the #HorizonIT scandal, #ComputerWeekly have done (for years) some great investigative work to set out the problems & the injustice, fraud & criminal activity perpetrated on the #postmasters.
Here is their guide to the scandal & a great (click-through) list of the ground-breaking journalism on the subject.
[Students, if you're thinking of a dissertation on this, this is a great resource for you]
A list of all #ComputerWeekly articles about the #Horizon #PostOfficeScandal since 2009 can be found at - https://www.computerweekly.com/news/366564173/Post-Office-gets-government-handout-as-Horizon-replacement-costs-increase-significantly
This extensive list shows just how much they have covered the issue in the last 15 years.
I use the scandal as a case study when teaching about #DigitalEthics and #TechnicalDebt (as an ethical issue)
“In early 2024, the next pilot phase at these two branches will take place – adding [new] functionality to enable payment and cash counting. After we have rigorously tested and evaluated this pilot phase, this will be the version that we plan to roll out into the first Postmaster pilot branches later in 2024”
Familiar story of preplanned piloting of technology vs open-minded experimentation with new ways of working?
#PostOfficeScandal #ComputerWeekly https://www.computerweekly.com/news/366564173/Post-Office-gets-government-handout-as-Horizon-replacement-costs-increase-significantly
now that the #Horizon system #PostOfficeScandal is back in the headlines, some insight into the #SoftwareEngineering aspects at #Fujitsu were previously published in #ComputerWeekly https://www.computerweekly.com/news/252496560/Fujitsu-bosses-knew-about-Post-Office-Horizon-IT-flaws-says-insider. If these are validated by the current analysis then i believe that Fujitsu should fund all the compensation, they should be precluded from future government contracts, and that there need to be prosecutions against those who deliberately gave misleading evidence in the original trials.
Interesting to see the effect of Mr Bates vs the Post Office, the ITV dramatisation of sub postmaster #AlanBates and his battle with the #PostOffice over their bug-ridden #Horizon software. Lots more people are discovering the story, which parts of the Computer press have been investigating for twenty years.
Alan Bates first contacted #ComputerWeekly in 2004, and they’ve run numerous articles on the scandal ever since.
1. this article by #BillGoodwin #ComputerWeekly on the latest revelations from our #FOIA litigation against the #CrownProsecutionService (through which the US act in the extradition of Julian #Assange to the US) just prompted #CrownProsecutionService to react, we also did:

1. è evidente che questo articolo di #WilliamGoodwin #ComputerWeekly sulle ultime rivelazioni dal nostro #FOIA è stato letto dalle autorità inglesi del #CrownProsecutionService, che hanno replicato, e anche noi abbiamo replicato:
