First I recalled the "Idiocracy" movie. But on a second thought, I myself love investing funny data when doing dev testing. So I guess there's nothing wrong with having some fun. After all, there's no reason to be constantly serious

The data, which US companies report in visa applications for foreign workers, sheds light on how engineers, designers, and others are compensated in the competitive industry. "You get a good job with good pay and you're okay"
In pretty hand-wavy terms, anyway.

A firm that sells nuisance call-blocking systems is itself nursing a £170,000 fine from the UK's data watchdog, ironically for cold calling almost 200,000 people registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). Mission accomplished then?

I think that they've made it more fine-grained. Some USBs can be allowed to work, the rest get blocked.

mmmm.... although that could actually be cool, I wonder how reliable it will really be.
Sometimes a wrong feeling of security is more dangerous than no security at all, since the users won't pay attention anymore.

You, like many other developers, may work in very large codebases that contain hundreds or thousands of projects in a single Visual Studio solution. At least we all know who's winning the Nobel Peace Prize this year
And a Congressional Medal of Honor, Legion of Honour, OBE, and a few others.

Sadly I didn't read anything about filtering the selection for high IQ and EQ. Oh wait, then it wouldn't be a representation of the general population.

Yes, quite.
I can just see AI-weighted votes. Right-thinkers score higher of course.
By the way, the citizens' assemblies here in the UK are just a scam for giving false legitimacy for what the government intended to do all along. (And didn't we used to call these "soviets", when the Russians arranged them?). They were announced with some fanfare and I thought that they sounded interesting. Next thing I knew, they were apparently up and running, with no public oversight that I am aware of, magically confirming government policy.
It strikes me that whoever is on these soviets... errr I mean citizens' assemblies, are selected to represent the views and mindset that the government wants.
There is nothing about AI meddling in democracy that makes it any less likely to be just as biased.

All Athenian adult citizens had the vote.
- Women weren't citizens
- Helots (slaves) weren't citizens
In fact only a small fraction of adults actually had the vote. Some democracy... 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

This might take a while.
