#Free #Speech in the #USA was yesterday. At least for #Asprirants, who want to enter the #USA, or #live and #study and #work there.

Has anyone used #GPT or other #LLM tools to rewrite survey reponses or something similar to anonymize the original responder? I can imagine that would be one of the purposes these tools would suit quite well.

Data broker allegedly selling de-anonymized info to face FTC lawsuit after all

Kochava tried to argue that selling sensitive info doesn’t directly cause harms.

@brunomiguel yea I'd prefer anonymized 3rd party data like the telcos have so we didn't have to guess about the biases in the self-reported survey data at all. Wish some nonprofit had a way to #anonymize and aggregate data voluntarily shared by users with researchers (#googletakeout #facebookexport).
