There are over 100,000
0:07
automated license plate reading cameras
0:09
in this country. And when you drive past
0:11
one, they don't just record your license
0:13
plate, though they do that, too. They
0:15
record the make and model of your car,
0:17
the color, distinguishing marks like
0:19
dents and scratches, and even your
0:21
bumper stickers. So, if you were to take
0:23
your license plate off, they still know
0:25
that car belongs to you. And when you
0:28
drive past a camera, the location and
0:30
the time is recorded in the list of
0:33
places they know you've been.
0:35
So, if you were to become the victim of
0:37
a stalker who works in law enforcement,
0:40
could they use that network to monitor
0:42
your movements? They can, and they have.
0:45
If there is a demonstration in your town
0:47
for gun rights or civil rights, and the
0:49
government takes an interest, could they
0:51
use this network to get a list of
0:53
everyone who drove to or even who drove
0:56
past that protest?
0:58
They can, and they have. And if you live
1:01
in a state where abortion is illegal,
1:04
and you self-administer one, and your
1:06
family disapproves, after you fled from
1:08
them and left the state, can they go to
1:10
law enforcement and have your movements
1:12
around the country tracked?
1:14
They can, and they have.
1:17
It's one of the thousands of ways that
1:19
all of our movements are monitored every
1:21
day. Our cars are recording our
1:24
acceleration and speed and braking,
1:26
sharing that with data brokers who sell
1:28
access to car insurance companies who
1:30
use it to change our rates.
1:33
Our phones monitor our interactions, not
1:35
just with apps, though they do that,
1:37
too, but our movements through physical
1:39
space, every business we enter, and the
1:42
identities of people who are nearby.
1:46
On the web, every click, every search,
1:49
every fraction of a second our eyes
1:50
linger on a piece of content is
1:52
recorded, and we're followed across the
1:54
web into our patient portals at our
1:56
doctor's office and into forums we
1:59
thought were private.
2:01
And what we found is that if technology
2:03
makes something possible and that
2:05
something is profitable, companies will
2:08
do it pretty much regardless of the
2:10
ethics. And this kind of surveillance
2:12
pricing is in use on the web for
2:14
everything from airline tickets to
2:16
clothes, but now it's following us
2:18
offline and meeting us in stores.
2:22
Companies make billions of dollars a
2:24
year using data from us that was
2:27
collected without our permission
2:29
and that they employ without our
2:30
consent.
2:32
But these systems don't exist just for
2:34
commerce. They exist to build detailed
2:37
dossiers of our thoughts, habits, and
2:40
actions that can be used to manipulate
2:42
our behavior or weaponized against us.
2:45
Data that law enforcement would require
2:48
a warrant to collect if they did it
2:49
directly, they now can just go buy for a
2:52
few dollars from private companies with
2:55
no court order and no probable cause.
2:58
The surveillance allows them to
3:00
circumvent the protections that we have
3:02
written into law.
3:04
And I don't know about you, but if this
3:05
is supposed to be the land of the free,
3:07
it suddenly doesn't feel like it.
3:09
We have a name for this kind of system.
3:12
When the government and corporations go
3:14
into a place and engage in extraction,
3:16
taking away private property, resources,
3:19
land, value, and labor from people,
3:21
concentrating it for themselves, and
3:24
then using it to keep that system in
3:26
place, we call it colonialism.
3:29
And America's days as a British colony
3:31
may be long over, but we have slid into
3:34
a new form of colonialism, not at the
3:36
hands of foreign powers and plantation
3:39
owners and trading companies, but at the
3:41
hands of tech companies and government
3:43
agencies.
3:44
And this is called data colonialism.
3:47
The idea of data colonialism describes
3:50
when governments and corporations
3:52
extract data from people and use it to
3:54
generate profits and exert control.
3:57
>> [snorts]
3:57
>> And it's a system that we can see in
3:59
place and in operation every day.
4:03
For example, Airlines Reporting
4:04
Corporation is a data broker owned by
4:07
the major airlines in the US and they
4:10
sell our flight records to the
4:11
government including to Customs and
4:13
Border Protection.
4:15
Clearview AI has built facial
4:17
recognition technology using images
4:19
taken from social media and the web
4:21
without permission and they sell that
4:24
facial recognition to immigration
4:25
officials including ICE.
4:28
Cambridge Analytica built detailed
4:31
psychological insights on millions of
4:33
Americans using stolen social media data
4:36
and they sold that to politicians who
4:38
were running for office who turned
4:40
around and used it to micro-target us
4:43
with Facebook ads designed to manipulate
4:46
our vote.
4:48
And these companies take their profits
4:49
and use them to lobby those same
4:51
politicians to make sure they enact
4:53
policies that keep this system in place.
4:58
Data colonialism is fundamentally
5:00
incompatible with democracy because
5:02
democracy requires that power be held in
5:05
the hands of the people and that we're
5:07
governed with our consent.
5:09
But under this system, regardless of how
5:11
our data is used, the surveillance
5:14
itself undermines core principles of
5:16
democracy so foundational that we wrote
5:18
them into the Bill of Rights.
5:20
Freedom of speech which is chilled under
5:23
profiling and the destruction of
5:25
anonymity.
5:26
Freedom of association which is eroded
5:29
under the surveillance of our
5:30
interactions and communications and
5:32
relationships.
5:34
The right to due process which
5:36
disappears in the darkness of opaque
5:38
algorithms that make decisions about us
5:40
with our extracted data and protection
5:43
from unreasonable search and seizure
5:45
that can't exist when our now digital
5:48
lives are constantly monitored and data
5:50
mined and monetized.
5:53
But the system is so huge that it can
5:56
feel powerless to stand in the face of
5:59
it.
6:00
But we shouldn't feel powerless and in
6:02
fact for all the division in our country
6:05
right now, this is an issue that can
6:06
unite us because data colonialism
6:09
violates [clears throat] values that are
6:11
core to liberals and conservatives on
6:13
the left and the right.
6:15
It diminishes the meaning of limited
6:17
government, of personal responsibility,
6:19
of private property. It weakens freedom
6:22
and equality and civil rights and the
6:24
value of consent.
6:27
And the wild power that it concentrates
6:29
in the hands of corporations and
6:31
government agencies diminishes the power
6:34
of the people, which is where it needs
6:36
to reside for democracy to thrive. And
6:39
it is far past time for us to revolt
6:41
against that.
6:43
But how do you do it in the face of a
6:44
system that is so big and omnipresent?
6:48
I don't want you to feel powerless
6:49
because you're not. There are things
6:51
that you can do today to start fighting
6:53
against this.
6:55
You can start with the systems that are
6:56
closest to you. For example, do you own
6:59
a video doorbell?
7:01
Last year Ring announced a partnership
7:03
with Flock Safety who operates those
7:05
license plate cameras that would have
7:07
integrated your doorbell footage into
7:09
their network and given access to law
7:11
enforcement.
7:13
But this year Ring canceled that
7:14
partnership after a backlash from their
7:17
customers.
7:19
Yeah.
7:20
>> [applause]
7:23
>> Similarly, Kroger, the grocery store,
7:25
was going to test camera-enabled shelf
7:27
labels in their stores, but after people
7:29
threatened to boycott and Congress was
7:31
investigating, they canceled that plan
7:33
as well.
7:35
>> [applause]
7:38
>> So look for these ways that surveillance
7:40
is trying to creep into your life and
7:42
they are going to tempt you with
7:44
convenience, and you have to tell them
7:46
no.
7:47
Become incredibly annoying to
7:49
corporations for the sake of democracy
7:51
because history shows that you can win.
7:54
But this isn't enough to take down data
7:56
colonialism. We need to do more.
7:59
So in your cities, in your counties,
8:01
even your homeowners association, see if
8:03
they have contracts with surveillance
8:05
companies.
8:07
Show up to town meetings and city halls
8:09
when these issues are being discussed.
8:11
Demand they turn over records. Insist
8:14
that contracts be canceled. Are they
8:16
letting data centers in that will take
8:18
your land and divert your water and tax
8:20
your power grid? Insist that those
8:22
permits be denied.
8:24
And what is likely to happen is that
8:26
your elected officials will not listen
8:28
the first or the second time, but keep
8:30
fighting, and if they refuse, vote them
8:32
out of office because you can work to
8:35
make your communities as safe as
8:37
possible from the influence of this
8:39
system.
8:41
At the state and federal level, we are
8:43
so long overdue for fundamental reforms
8:46
in the way we think about data
8:47
ownership, privacy, and corporate
8:49
governance. There's a lot of work to do
8:52
there. But one place that we can start
8:55
is by stopping the government from
8:56
getting around the protections of
8:58
requiring a warrant where they just buy
9:01
our data from private companies.
9:03
>> [applause]
9:08
>> The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance
9:10
Act, FISA, expressly prohibits the
9:12
government from doing bulk data
9:14
collection on US citizens, but the
9:15
government has frequently gotten around
9:18
that by buying the data from private
9:19
companies. The FBI is doing this now.
9:22
This so-called data broker loophole
9:24
could be closed every time Congress
9:26
reauthorizes FISA. The amendment to
9:29
close it failed on a tie vote.
9:32
And this year, they didn't even let the
9:34
amendment come to the floor. FISA has
9:36
lapsed, and it's a stark reminder of how
9:39
colonialism re-entrenches itself by
9:42
subverting democracy. So, talk to your
9:45
representatives and tell them to close
9:47
the data broker loophole, and look at
9:49
the state and local level as well. So,
9:51
your government and law and fish law
9:53
enforcement officials are not getting
9:55
around the legal protections that we
9:57
have over our data by going to private
10:00
companies who have collected it without
10:01
our consent and sell it to them with no
10:03
protection.
10:05
250 years ago, the founders said that
10:08
when a system of government becomes
10:10
oppressive, even if that's embodied in
10:12
part in corporations, it's our right and
10:15
our duty to throw it off.
10:17
Our data belongs to us. It's valuable
10:20
and it's powerful, but when it's
10:21
extracted, that value and power is taken
10:24
out of our hands.
10:25
Under data colonialism, you are being
10:27
exploited by a system that oppresses
10:30
you, taking your data and using it to
10:33
diminish the rights and protections that
10:35
we hold foundational to our democracy.
10:39
You should be angry, but you shouldn't
10:41
feel powerless because today's the day
10:43
that you can commit to join the fight to
10:46
dismantle data colonialism, reclaiming
10:49
the power of our data into the hands of
10:51
the people, and ensuring the future of
10:54
our democracy. Thank you.
10:56
