>They can't even do what Aaron Barr was asking of them.
For that matter, they can't even do what Lessig was gushing about:
>>there's a company called Palantir who's built a technology to make it absolutely, make you absolutely confident that a particular bit of data has been used precisely as the government says it's supposed to be used. You can find out exactly who's looked at it and for what purpose it's been used at. So the point is there's a way to build the technology to give us this liberty back, this privacy back. But it's not a priority to think about using code to protect us.
Wha? There's always been code that can tell you who accessed what and when: the problem is trusting it to be set up right, not the technology.
Anyone know what the actual Palantir accomplishment is?
Palantir is tool for doing link analysis and importing structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data. It has a great UI for exploring data and a great UI for manual tagging of data. It has excellent logging capabilities, but I'd argue "data has been used precisely as the government says it's supposed to be used" this is impossible since once a person knows a piece of information they can use it in anyway that they'd like.
