These intelligence agencies are not completely stupid. They know that they are not widely liked. A criticism from them is a compliment.

L'#EDPS, l'Autorità europea di supervisione della protezione dei dati personali, si è espressa sull'utilizzo dell'#AI da parte dell'Europol

Estratto: "AI (should be) used with caution in law enforcement contexts. While AI can be useful, its results must be considered as statistical probabilities rather than absolute truths.
AI-generated results should be distinguished from accurate data and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for decision-making."

Ecco.

#Europe Map Shows Countries Defying Trump's DEI Order

By Jordan King

Updated Apr 06, 2025

"Newsweek has created a map showing the European nations where governments and companies have rejected a U.S. directive applying President Donald Trump's rollback of #diversity, #equity and #inclusion (DEI) policies to American federal contractors abroad, which include #France, #Belgium, #Spain and #Denmark.

"The directive warns that DEI programs may disqualify firms from U.S. federal contracts—even those based abroad.

"According to several European officials, companies have received letters from the U.S. government warning that Trump's executive order banning 'illegal' DEI programs would be enforced internationally. The letters reportedly demand that companies confirm within five days that they comply with U.S. federal anti-discrimination laws and do not operate any DEI programs that violate them.

"Newsweek has contacted the State Department, via email, for a response. It has also contacted U.S. embassies at several other European countries to ask if they have also received these letters.

"The United Kingdom's Office for Equality and Opportunity declined to comment to Newsweek saying it is 'not aware of this letter being sent to UK businesses' at this time.

Why It Matters

"The move marks a significant escalation in the Trump administration's effort to dismantle DEI initiatives across government and industry—and expands that campaign across borders. The executive order has drawn strong objections in some European capitals.

French companies and officials were among the first to respond. Aurore Bergé, France's equality minister, denounced the letters in an interview with BFMTV, calling them "a form, obviously, of interference" and "a sort of ultimatum laid out by the US embassy in our country."

What To Know

"The letter warned that the executive order applied to 'all suppliers and service providers of the US Government, regardless of their nationality and the country in which they operate.' "

The dissonance between these two articles shows the reality of #trump goals, his mission.

The public rebuke of #Putin was probably pre-approved by Putin, as #ukraine is bullied through aggression and attrition, good cop and bad cop.

What's the best way to contact #EU representatives to let them know our thoughts?

Im "#Sicherheitspaket" der #Bundesregierung war ein Hauptkritikpunkt die biometrische #Massenüberwachung.

Ausgerechnet #Europol hat nun eine Studie veröffentlicht, in der die europäische Polizeibehörde auf die Unzulänglichkeiten und Gefahren des biometrischen Versprechens ausdrücklich hinweist.

Auch jenseits des Überwachungsthemas ganz lesenswert, soweit es um biometrische Zugangskontrollen als Bestandteil von physischer Sicherheit oder #Cybersecurity geht:
