Der Messenger »Doctolib Siilo« richtet sich an den medizinischen Bereich. Direkt nach dem Start verbindet sich die App zu:
- Google Firebase
- Adjust (Tracking)
- Google Crashlytics (Analyse/Tracking)
- Google Firebase Remote Config
- Google Firebase Logging

Um Erlaubnis wird nicht gefragt. Besonders brisant: Das personenbezogene Datum (Google-Advertisting-ID) wird ausgelesen und an Adjust übermittelt. #DSGVO und #TTDSG Verstoß.

Genau so geht Datenschutz nicht. 🤷‍♂️

#Followerpower ist gefragt. Nachdem großen Update der Messenger-Matrix habe ich noch den Line-Messenger ergänzt. Ich bitte alle #Follower mal einen prüfenden Blick auf die Matrix zu werfen - insbesondere auf jene Messenger, die ihr selbst benutzt. Sollten Angaben nicht stimmen bzw. überarbeitet werden, so meldet das bitte. Entweder hier oder über die Projektseite.

Push-Benachrichtigungen und Datenschutz

Seit einigen Tagen werden Push-Benachrichtigungen und deren Implikationen für den Datenschutz heiss diskutiert. Auslöser war der Brief eines US-Senators ans Justizministerium (DOJ), worin gefordert wird, dass Betreiber von Push-Diensten – insb.

Today, two open letters from academics on the scientific arguments against the current #CSS (client side scanning) initiatives have been released:

* The first (in English, internationally coordinated) one is online at tinyurl.com/CSAScientistsLette… and still open for additional signatures.

* The second (in German, by #Austrian academics) one is online at ins.jku.at/chatcontrol/ and explicitly includes law experts in addition to the arguments from a security, privacy, and AI perspective.

This debate is expected to gain new steam with #Spain taking over the EU council presidency, given recently leaked statements like "Ideally, in our view, it would be desirable to legislatively prevent EU-based service providers from implementing end-to-end encryption" (wired.co.uk/article/europe-bre…).

Please boost on any channels you deem adequate. The discussion is still open, and we have little time to bring it to a more rational level.

Leaked Government Document Shows Spain Wants to Ban End-to-End Encryption

In response to an EU proposal to scan private messages for illegal material, the country's officials said it is “imperative that we have access to the data.”
