    Some career news: I've joined the faculty, with a joint appointment in the Computer Science Department and the Woodrow Wilson School. Thanks to and for the government service opportunity of a lifetime.

    To be clear: This is a discussion paper. The ideas about content moderation and E2E encrypted messaging are preliminary. I drafted the paper largely as an agenda for further research, including by my own group. I am not yet advocating for or against these protocol designs.

    I demonstrate these two points by formalizing a set of technical properties for content moderation in E2E encrypted messaging apps. I then offer at least one possible design for each property.

    The latest flashpoint for encryption policy is harmful content in messaging apps. In a new discussion paper, I offer two points about E2E encrypted messaging: 1. Content moderation may be possible. 2. Content moderation is different from lawful access.

    Last week: NYTimes dings Apple for favoring its own apps in App Store results. Apple swears it’s unintentional. This week: Apple releases iOS 13. The App Store has a permanent tab to promote the new Apple game service, in comparison to all other games.

    Good that Congress will provide more election funding to states. But make no mistake: these are not “election security grants.” States can spend them on any component of election administration. They are not linked to any security requirements or goals.

    The panel was rightly sensitive to the competition backdrop. From the opinion: “[G]iving companies like LinkedIn free rein to decide, on any basis, who can collect and use data . . . risks the possible creation of information monopolies that would disserve the public interest.”

    Today’s 9th Circuit decision in hiQ v. LinkedIn is huge for CFAA reform. It’s also huge for tech competition. The panel recognized that firms might establish *affirmative rights* to scrape and repurpose public data from competitors and platforms.

    The online advertising standards group just shared its new proposal for protecting consumer privacy. The big idea is… replacing tracking cookies with a uniform, persistent, unique tracking ID. 🤦‍♂️

    Shifting the level of generality for COPPA is a big deal for platforms, since they often host *some* user-generated content that’s directed at children. The move also sets up possible conflict between COPPA and CDA 230, since it arguably holds platforms liable as intermediaries.

    There’s a subtle and key legal move in today’s FTC-YouTube privacy settlement. Online services often dodge COPPA by claiming that *in aggregate* they aren’t child-directed. But in this case, FTC said *specific* channels were *separate* child-directed services, and COPPA applies.

    The first allegation of a crime committed in outer space is… a Computer Fraud and Abuse Act violation? Tired: extraterritorial jurisdiction. Wired: extraterrestrial jurisdiction.

    Google just made a long-awaited announcement on Chrome's approach to privacy. Sadly it is full of excuses for *not* doing tracking protection, including the absurd claim that blocking cookies is bad for privacy. and I deconstruct the claims:

    This could have been a serious security issue, allowing an attacker to download the server’s contents. Or it could have just been sloppy design, with backend logic filtering paths that weren’t sample ballots. I don’t know, because I didn’t test which files the API would return.

    The design of the Georgia voter registration website is lousy. Here’s some technical detail on one of the concerns, since reports it’s fixed… There was an API endpoint that accepted POSTed JSON of a Unix-style path on the server and returned the content of that file.

    GAO’s report on cybersecurity for weapons systems is damning. These are systems that kill people, and they’re hackable. Vulns are common, easy to exploit, and trace to basic errors. I briefly worked on this in the Senate and—no hyperbole—it’s terrifying.

    Today’s Google+ security snafu highlights a key gap in state data breach notification laws. The usual notice trigger is “unauthorized acquisition” of personal data. That omits scenarios like this, where a firm exposes data but lacks the access logs to know whether data was taken.

    The Dormant Commerce Clause has lurked in the background of state internet law for decades, but tech and telecom firms haven’t vigorously advanced the argument. If it’s successful now, key areas of state law—breach notification, privacy policies, etc.—will be thrown into doubt.

    An important legal tidbit about net neutrality in California: DOJ’s lawsuit only claimed preemption under FCC rules. Today’s ISP lawsuit adds a Dormant Commerce Clause claim. If that theory prevails, it’ll have massive implications for state authority to protect consumers online.

    Buried in today’s news: Facebook prevailed against the FBI’s request to intercept encrypted Messenger calls. This is a key test case; the court may have declined an expansive interpretation of the Wiretap Act assistance provisions. Opinion is still sealed.
