So what happens i know the magistrate judge or the judge below here said that it was preposterous to think that this prisoner could hide anything in his half inch beard. Assuming that his half inch beard was not thickly grown, but some are, and some you cant see the skin. Should that half inch issue be applied to that prisoner . Wouldnt it be a different set of facts in that case to consider . Well, a state might be able to show thats a different set of facts. You know, but the question is not just is it conceivably imaginable that some prisoner somewhere could hide something in a half inch beard. But could he hide something there that he couldnt much more easily and more securely hide in the hair on top of his head, in his shoe, in the lining of his clothes . For all half inch beards, right . Yes. We have to assume all half inch beards are okay if god tells you to grow them, right . Well, you know, i think thats right, and again subject to somebody producing evidence that were wrong a
Applicable to antiterrorism methods, i dont know. I think all of these models are heavily data driven. So one would need a lot of data. But to the point that these models, these predictive modelling are able to predict things that may relate indirectly to terrorism or criminal activities, the systems are suggesting that we are going that way. Other thoughts on that question . Theres a system in chicago that the Chicago Police department has deployed which both has been touted and criticized, but it does somewhat the neighborhood or block level predictive deprediction bs as to criminal activity as well as i understand individual level identifying people who may be either victims of crimes or perpetrators of crimes. Again, both touted and highly criticized. Any thoughts or comments . One quick one creating a feedback loop. You see every crime that occurs on corner acts and draw an overdrawn example that you thought it was real dangerous. Thats the main one from my perspective. So this is
Protected. Fourth amendment, mike, you talked about the balance between government requests and your customers privacy, do you think the government should have a warrant every time it accesses your customers records . Particularly if theyre american customers. Yeah. Certainly in the Law Enforcement context weve advocated for a reform of that that would in effect require a warrant for access to any content regardless of the age to precise location information, other sensitive data. You know, im not sure we gould so far to say that a warrant is required for every single case for every single data type. We certainly need to update the rules so that there is appropriate judicial review of surveillance programs and specific requests that we get for data. In terms of thirdparty doctrine, would you then essentially not have it be an absolute exception to the Fourth Amendment but essentially where would grow with it to provide some protection but not necessarily a full warrant protection . Yea
Congress. For example, the usa freedom act and similar initiatives. You have as part of that also the proposal to create an advocate of some kind,e. Here again, an attempt to influence or affect what are the rules that the intelligence agencies are expected to follow. And then a different part of that question is, what oversight mechani mechanisms, what assurances do we have that the agencies are following the rules . And you are part of that. I mentioned the congressional committees, and then all the layers within the executive blanche itself. So i think i hope that the public discussion has been shifting a bit from whether or not were following the rules i think what i perceived in the public discussion is a greater acceptance that where he in fact trying our best to follow the rules. Were not perfect and we make mistakes. But were trying to follow the rules as best we can. And now that the discussion has been shifting to what should those rules be . What are the rules . And what sho
Berlin and so far the u. S. Hasnt done well in the international bid. Back to you guys. What is next for boston . Well, the city will now work with the u. S. Olympic committee to submit a bid by this fall to the International Olympic committee. They have to work out venue details, transportation plans, and the operating budget. The ioc will then decide on a 2024 summer games host city in 2017. Boston could be competing against as he said rome, paris, berlin, hamburg and istanbul.
