WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Within the World Wide Web, lies a whole world of information. “We worried about hackers,” said University of Maryland professor Jennifer Golbeck, “but we didn't worry about essentially ‘surveillance capitalism’ – companies that make money by collecting data about us and selling it to other people.” Those companies are known as “data brokers.” They operate with little oversight, but collect thousands of pieces of data about you every day. What could it include? If you have a store loyalty card – they know what you buy. If you have an app – they can track your location and what websites you visit. Credit reports, real estate transactions, job applications: all can be compiled by data brokers to paint a picture of who you are. They don’t have to tell you about it and it’s all perfectly legal. Prof. Golbeck specializes in data privacy at University of Maryland’s College of Information Studies and has looked at the way data brokers operate. “For data brokers, in particular, people have tried [to find out what they know] and most of the time they won't share it because that's their product. The thing that has a value is all that data. So, they don't want to give it away,” she said. “It's their data. It's about you. And that, I think, is really the fundamental problem with how we think about data in the U.S. It is my data. It's information about me. But I don't have a right to it. I don't own it here.” That is not the case in Europe, where the European Union enacted the “General Data Protection and Regulation” law in 2018. It regulates the processing of personal information and data and allows consumers to request a copy of the data collected about them – similar to the way people in the U.S. can get a copy of their credit report. Privacy experts say that’s what makes the need for federal oversight of data brokers so critical. “Ultimately, this is not a ‘David versus Goliath’ situation. It is not something that consumers can solve on their own,” said Alan Butler, senior counsel for the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) in Washington, D.C. This month, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-New York) introduced the “Data Protection Act of 2020.” Among other things, it would create a federal “Data Protection Agency” that would protect consumers and monitor where their data goes and how it’s used. “I think what we've seen over the past 10 years is an increase really an epidemic of data breach in this country. And that's really the result of the amassing of so much personal information in given places,” Butler said. “Really, we need laws that limit and control the collection of personal information rather than our current situation.” California recently enacted a stronger data privacy law within that state: the California Consumer Privacy Act, which allows people to learn what data is being collected about them and allows them to opt out of having their data sold. Experts believe that law could end up having a cascading effect and spread to other states, but a federal law would be the only way to guarantee those protections to all Americans. In the meantime, experts say in order to protect yourself, install a tracker blocker on your phone and browsers and set all your online settings to private. 3274

A collection of stars participated in the telling of a political drama filled with intrigue, foreign adversaries and dreams of power.But it wasn't Shakespeare: It was the Mueller report, adapted for the stage.Stars such as Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Mark Hamill, John Lithgow and Alyssa Milano performed Monday night in a play based on the special counsel's report into Russian interference in the 2016 US election."The Investigation: A Search For the Truth in Ten Acts," was live streamed by Law Works, which hosted the event."Join us for an historic live play in 10 acts ripped from the pages of the Mueller report," their website reads.The play was written by Robert Schenkkan, who received the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1992 for his play "The Kentucky Cycle." His play "All the Way" earned the 2014 Tony Award for best play."The play lets the facts and Mueller's words tell the story of a President who likely obstructed justice and a campaign that not only knew Russia wanted them to win, but welcomed it," David Wade, the executive director of Law Works, told CNN in a statement.After the reading of dialogue from the different players, the actors and actresses read excerpts from both Attorney General William Barr's and Mueller's news conferences. To conclude, they read portions of the Constitution about impeachment, and continued to give examples of why they believe the President is guilty of obstruction.Other actors participating are Alfre Woodard, Annette Bening, Piper Perabo, Kyra Sedgwick, Kevin Kline, Frederick Weller, Ben McKenzie, Michael Shannon, Noah Emmerich, Justin Long, Jason Alexander, Gina Gershon, Wilson Cruz, Joel Grey, Zachary Quinto and Aidan Quinn.Louis-Dreyfus and Hamill recorded videos for the performance, according to Kevin McAlister, a spokesman for Law Works.Law Works "engages bipartisan voices and educates the public on the importance of the rule of law, the role of the special counsel in the justice system, and the integrity of our judicial institutions," according to their website.After years of investigating, the Department of Justice released a redacted copy of Mueller's report in April. Mueller's investigation into possible obstruction of justice could not clear Trump, and the redacted report details numerous cases in which Trump asked his aides to take actions that would have obstructed the investigation, but stated they were unsuccessful because the aides refused his orders.Mueller says in the report the investigation into possible collusion found members of the Trump campaign knew they would benefit from Russia's illegal actions to influence the election, but didn't take criminal steps to help.The play comes weeks before Arena Stage in Washington, DC, is set to present an 11-hour marathon reading of Volume 2 of the Mueller report, 2821

A jury of seven men and five women has been selected for Harvey Weinstein's rape trial after an arduous, two-week process in which scores of people were dismissed because they had already made up their minds about the disgraced Hollywood mogul. Opening statements are expected Wednesday in the case against the 67-year-old Weinstein. During jury selection, prosecutors had accused Weinstein's lawyers of systematically trying to keep young women off the panel, though the final makeup of the jury Friday turned out to be more closely balanced. For its part, the defense raised an outcry because one of the jurors is the author of an upcoming novel about young women dealing with predatory older men. 711
