Today's Story Highlights
The Democratic Debate That Wasn't: How Tech Could Help Elections
I watched the Democratic debates last week and was struck by three
things: I'd likely rather watch paint dry; the application of technology
to improve the experience was nonexistent; and I'd bet that if the
Democrats don't up their game President Trump will have them to thank
when he wins re-election. I'll suggest some ways technology could be
used to improve events.

NSA Admits Improper Collection of Phone Data, 2nd Time Around
The ACLU has released documents showing the NSA improperly collected
Americans' call and text logs in November 2017 and in February and
October 2018. The unauthorized collections occurred just four months
after the agency announced it was deleting more than 620 million call
detail records acquired since 2015 under Title V of the Foreign
Intelligence Service Act.

Chinese Hackers Linked to Global Attacks on Telcos
Chinese hackers likely are responsible for a series of cyberattacks
against telecommunications companies around the world, security
researchers have reported. The campaign, dubbed "Operation Soft Cell,"
has been active since 2012, according to Cybereason. There is some
evidence suggesting even earlier activity against the telecommunications
providers, all of whom were outside North America.

Proposed Law Would Force Big Tech to Reveal Value of Consumer Data
A Democrat and a Republican have filed a U.S. Senate bill to require
companies to report to financial regulators and to the public what
consumer data they collect and how they leverage it for profit. "When a
big tech company says its product is free, consumers are the ones being
sold," said Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo. "These 'free' products track
everything we do."

Next-Gen Raspberry Pi 4 Packs Power Plus Potential
The next big Raspberry Pi thing is now here, with lots more computing
power and more options. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has announced the
availability of Raspberry Pi 4, a comprehensive upgrade that touches
nearly every element of the computing platform. Users have a choice of
three memory capacities. The entry-level 1 GB RAM retains the signature
$35 price; 2 GB costs $45; 4 GB sells for $55.
