Urad za alkohol, tobak, strelno orožje in eksplozive (ATF) je pred kratkim napovedal preklic pogodbe za nadzorno orodje, znano kot Webloc, zaradi naraščajočih pomislekov zakonodajalcev, tožilcev in sodnikov glede njegove zakonitosti v kazenskih preiskavah.
Polemika se je začela, ko sta kongresnik Michael Cloud, republikanec iz Teksasa, in senator Ron Wyden, demokrat iz Oregona, sprožila alarm glede uporabe orodja Webloc, ki ga je razvil Penlink. Programska oprema zbira podatke o lokaciji iz potrošniških aplikacij in oglaševalskih omrežij, kar policiji omogoča sledenje gibanjem posameznikov brez pridobitve naloga.
Po poročilih je ATF uporabljal Webloc kot del "pilotnega" programa, namenjenega izboljšanju preiskovalnih zmogljivosti. Vendar pa je agencija ugotovila, da orodje ne izpolnjuje svojih operativnih potreb in se je odločila, da ga ne bo več uporabljala.
Odločitev je prišla po zaslišanju v kongresu, kjer je direktor ATF Robert Cekada priznal, da je agencija kupila podatke o geolokaciji ameriških mobilnih telefonov.
Webloc, ki ga je prvotno razvilo izraelsko podjetje Cobwebs, je bilo kasneje pridobljeno in integrirano v Penlink, podjetje s sedežem v ZDA.
Ta razvoj poudarja vse večjo odvisnost organov kazenskega pregona od naprednih tehnologij nadzora, čeprav pravne in etične meje ostajajo nejasne. Medtem ko nekateri vidijo ta orodja kot bistvena za sodobno policijsko delo, drugi opozarjajo na potencialno erozijo državljanskih svoboščin in potrebo po jasnejšem regulativnem nadzoru.

TechCrunchNeodvisenSredinaDejstva 30Objektivnost 85pred 3 dnevi Acti puts AI agents directly into your smartphone keyboardActi, a Singapore-based startup, has launched an AI-powered keyboard for iOS and Android devices that integrates AI agents directly into the user's typing experience.
