Subject: RE: [humanmarkup-comment] Criminal Intelligence Systems
Not all information has a URI or URL. That is from a DOJ CFR and was given to me in hardcopy as part of daily work routines. Yes, in context of a criminal investigation, information is collected but it must be relevant to the investigation, that is, cannot be collected routinely. There are restrictions on what information can be collected, the contexts in which it is collected, and the dissemination of such information to other parties. Private citizens do have rights with regards to such collection and notification about such collection. I posted that to be informative. One could be proposing uses of HumanML that violate DOJ regulations or existing statutes. In early discussions of HumanML, we discussed stereotypes as one application in which artificial humans are enabled. These do not violate statutes and if the proper procedures are followed to remove the capacity of an organization or individual to identify a subject of observation, can be initialized with information from observation; however, the policies for that will vary and the HumanML application designer should be aware that such policies do exist. len -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Norris [mailto:jwnorris@humanmarkup.org] Len, Could you please post a link to the entire document? I would like to get the particular context this is within. I am sure such information can be collected upon proper approval of authorities for criminal dossiers and investigations. For example, if probably cause exists for the investigation for a certain person, investigation into his or her associations and activities would certainly be considered acceptable areas for analysis. I doubt the mere ability to track and process such datatypes are not, in and of themselves, illegal - insofar as they operate within proper guidelines that respect civil liberties of the investigated group or individual.
