Adtech companies flaunt cookie rules because the UK data regulator doesn't enforce them.

So why might the ICO weaken them further?

It'd make it even easier for advertisers to target people based on mental health, addictions or other vulnerabilities.

With the #ICO approving "consent to stalking or pay", #Facebook now wants me to pay £3/month or use all my data for tracking, training AI etc.

I haven't posted anything to Facebook in over a year, just using it to keep up with friends and family. But now I'm probably just going to delete my account entirely.

No surprise that the #UK Information Commissioner’s Office (#ICO) sees possible criminal fraud in #ZarahSultana's launch of a #YourParty membership system.

But why has #ICO not directly notified the police? There is great #popcorn potential in #Corbyn having to give evidence against the renegade #Sultana. But crime on this scale should be investigated regardless of internal politics. #ukpol

Report from #TheNewStatesman archive.is/hnASe / #NewStatesman newstatesman.com/politics/uk-p

Headline from linked article in The New Statesman: "Your Party advised to refer unauthorised membership launch to police:.

Strapline: "An official body told the party it should consider doing so to determine whether “serious criminal activity” occurred"

Text: Fighting for Data Protection – ORG challenged the harms of the Data Use and Access Bill and led on the demand for an inquiry into the ICO. Image: Green and pink textured abstract background.

Over 70 groups and experts backed ORG's call for an inquiry into the UK Information Commissioner's Office for their chronic failure to enforce data law.

Rules only work if they're actually enforced and it's our privacy on the line when data breaches are shrugged off.

ORG has long warned that the botched UK eVisa scheme could create another Windrush scandal.

Flawed data and systems can corrupt a person's immigration status, especially as there's no offline way to prove it.

According to the ICO, LastPass “failed to implement sufficiently robust technical and security measures,” that resulted in two separate data breach incidents.

"The [UK] Home Office failed to assess the risks that a digital-only [eVisa] scheme brings, particularly for those who are vulnerable, older, or disabled. It is also misleading in its assessment of the scheme as digital by default.”
