"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

He reiterated that his priority is the “accuracy and integrity” of the results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Doug Jones, a computer science professor at the University of Iowa and a former caucus precinct leader\"]‘It appears in this case that the app was never really tested in a manner which came close to approximating the real mess of an election.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DNC Chairman Tom Perez said in a statement Tuesday evening that the issue “should never happen again.” He said the app would not be used during the primary election process and that the vendor “must provide absolute transparent accounting of what went wrong.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shadow Inc., the company that developed the app for the party, apologized for the delay in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/ShadowIncHQ/status/1224773797380837377\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a series of tweets\u003c/a> Tuesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We sincerely regret the delay in the reporting of the results of last night’s Iowa caucuses and the uncertainty it has caused to the candidates, their campaigns, and Democratic caucus-goers,” the company said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As the Iowa Democratic Party has confirmed, the underlying data and collection process via Shadow’s mobile caucus app was sound and accurate, but our process to transmit that caucus results data generated via the app to the IDP was not,” Shadow added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company said that it will “apply the lessons learned in the future” and that it has “already corrected the underlying technology issue. We take these issues very seriously, and are committed to improving and evolving to support the Democratic Party’s goal of modernizing its election processes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/ShadowIncHQ/status/1224773797380837377?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iowa Democratic Party said it has determined “with certainty” that “the underlying data” via its \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/14/795906732/despite-election-security-fears-iowa-caucuses-will-use-new-smartphone-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new app\u003c/a> “was sound.” In a statement Tuesday morning, Price said the app was recording data accurately, but “it was reporting out only partial data” because of a “coding issue in the reporting system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Party staff then turned to entering data manually, which took longer than expected, Price said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Computer experts and caucus chairs said there was not enough training on using the app before Monday’s caucuses, which are chaotic enough as it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It appears in this case that the app was never really tested in a manner which came close to approximating the real mess of an election,” Doug Jones, a computer science professor at the University of Iowa and a former caucus precinct leader, told NPR on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Caucus chairs, in many cases, apparently were attempting to download and install the app on their phones on caucus night,” he said. “That’s extraordinarily difficult to do that kind of thing under pressure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A report by NPR and Iowa Public Radio last month \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/14/795906732/despite-election-security-fears-iowa-caucuses-will-use-new-smartphone-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">raised several concerns about the app\u003c/a>. Cybersecurity experts interviewed by NPR said the party’s decision to withhold the technical details of its app made it hard to have complete confidence in it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Troy Price, chair of the Iowa Democratic Party\"]‘We have every indication that our systems were secure and there was not a cybersecurity intrusion. ‘[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Drawing the blinds on the process leaves us, in the public, in a position where we can’t even assess the competence of the people doing something on our behalf,” Jones, the computer science professor, said then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, Price said he was confident in the party’s contingency planning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there’s a challenge, we’ll be ready with a backup and a backup to that backup and a backup to the backup to the backup,” Price told NPR. “We are fully prepared to make sure that we can get these results in and get those results in accurately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in his statement Tuesday morning, Price said: “We have every indication that our systems were secure and there was not a cybersecurity intrusion. In preparation for the caucuses, our systems were tested by independent cybersecurity consultants.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security’s cybersecurity agency said, “At this time, we have no reporting of any malicious cyberactivity. We encourage our election partners to build resilience into their planning and execution procedures, to prepare for issues that may come up during election processes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, said, “The continuing chaos in Iowa is illustrative of our overall failure to take sufficient steps to protect the integrity of our election systems.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as NPR and Iowa Public Radio reported in January, there were also concerns about a lag in the adoption of technology in some rural parts of Iowa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At least everybody with smartphones is gonna [use the app], I know that,” said Gary Gelner, who chairs the Hancock County Democratic Party in north central Iowa. “You’d be surprised how many people up here got the old flip cellphones.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iowa Democratic Party paid Shadow, the app developer, a total of $63,183.91 in “professional fees” in November and December, according to \u003ca href=\"https://webapp.iecdb.iowa.gov/PublicView/statewide/2020/Period_Due_Date_19-Jan/Parties/Iowa%20Democratic%20Party_9098/Iowa%20Democratic%20Party_9098_B_Expenditures.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a campaign finance report \u003c/a>filed by the party in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shadow’s website \u003ca href=\"https://shadowinc.io/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">describes the company\u003c/a> this way: “We are campaign and technology veterans who have built and implemented technology at Hillary for America, Obama for America, Google, Kiva, Apple, the AFL-CIO, and the DNC.

In addition to that, you got a series of PIN numbers. And so, yeah, there was a lot of layers and I think that absolutely mucked it up. Anecdotally, a few of the people I do know who used the app successfully were younger people. But I do know some young people that also had troubles, just so many layers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marjie Foster, the Democratic chair of Decatur County, said her caucus “had absolutely no glitches with the app. Our app process worked great. Our chair was very well-prepared. He had trained and tested, and he was on target with it. So we had no issues with the app.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the app didn’t work for Des Moines County Democratic Party Co-Chairman Tom Courtney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"election2020\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Things didn’t work out right,” said Courtney, who said he tried to call in the results for several hours but couldn’t get through because the number was “constantly busy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, Courtney said, he went home and planned to call and report his precinct’s results in the morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The Iowa Democratic Party] made it seem like this was going to work fine. They tested it, tested it,” he said. “I’m old enough, I was skeptical, the whole thing, but I thought it would be better than it is. There have been problems. Little problems with it, right, all along.

"content": "\u003cp>Cloud computing is one of the most in-demand hard skills employers in the Bay Area looked for in 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://learning.linkedin.com/blog/top-skills/the-skills-companies-need-most-in-2019--and-how-to-learn-them\">according to LinkedIn\u003c/a>. Businesses as diverse as Gap, Sirius XM, Pinterest and many startups are moving their products to the cloud because it’s cheaper and easier than maintaining servers. The cloud has become a multi-billion dollar industry quickly, and there still aren’t enough people with cloud computing skills to fill all the jobs available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Companies are hungry enough for that skillset that they’re willing to get pretty creative to get talented people,” said Ethan Van der Heide, a technical recruiter for \u003ca href=\"https://www.workbridgeassociates.com/\">Workbridge Associates\u003c/a> in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Van der Heide described DevOps — a common title for these positions — as a mixture of coding, operations and people skills. Before the cloud started to dominate the industry, most companies had software developers who wrote the code and operational people who made sure it ran. Cloud computing collapses the distance between those roles, requiring knowledge of both sides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The skill sets are constantly changing,” Van der Heide said. “The tools are constantly changing. What’s relevant is constantly changing. So the best indicator is somebody who is constantly learning to keep up with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a recruiter, he’s looking for people who like to learn new things and who seek out learning opportunities. There’s a whole group of them just down Interstate 280 at Foothill College in Los Altos Hills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Teresa Ong, associate vice president for Workforce and CTE programs at Foothill College\"]‘Amazon Web Services, their Educate Team, came knocking on our door and said, ‘We need people with this skill and we don’t have them. What can we do about it?”[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was looking for quite some time and hoping to see something,” said Meilani Widodo, a student in Foothill’s first introduction to cloud computing class. It’s part of a four-course sequence that will result in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) certification. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Widodo has worked in the tech industry for many years as a Unix systems administrator, but is looking for a new and better opportunity. She regularly takes classes at local community colleges to keep her skills sharp and was excited to see Foothill offering a class based on the AWS platform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I do see a lot of jobs posted by Amazon and I do see some opportunities,” Widodo said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She has enjoyed the Foothill class because it’s hands-on and problem-based. Students are working together in groups to build a voice- assistant, like Alexa or Siri, using AWS. For many of them, the cloud is new, even though most are technology industry professionals. Many see how the industry is changing and know they need to keep up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not really about switching jobs, but adapting to the new reality,” said Hip Long, a 28-year-old software developer and Foothill student. Long saw a demo video posted on AWS showing a software developer giving Alexa specific instructions to create a program, which the machine then created. In his experience, building a program takes months of communication with the finance and operations teams — he was inspired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can see the changes of the traditional way of writing software to the new way,” Long said. “It makes something impossible in the past become reality.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He doesn’t want to get left behind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These professionals are glad Foothill is offering cloud computing. At $31 per credit it’s an affordable way to upskill. But the genesis of the class did not come from students. It came from industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Amazon Web Services, their Educate Team, came knocking on our door and they said, ‘We need people with this skill and we don’t have them. What can we do about it?’” said Teresa Ong, associate vice president for Workforce and CTE programs at Foothill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Foothill faculty worked with AWS to determine the competencies students will need to work in the cloud computing field, regardless of whether they are working on AWS systems or some of the other big competitors like Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud. It’s based on a similar partnership AWS launched with a group of \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/amazon-expands-cloud-training-to-northern-california-colleges-high-schools/617732\">schools in Southern California\u003c/a> two years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ramon Nei took the cloud computing program at East Los Angeles College, which is one of the 19 Los Angeles colleges in the partnership. He \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2019/amazon-expands-cloud-training-to-northern-california-colleges-high-schools/617732\">told EdSource\u003c/a> he credits the program with helping him get an internship with a software company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s helping me to solve problems using software,” Nei told EdSource. “It’s working with new technology and not like any regular classes you take in school but something new and connected to Amazon.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Foothill, Ong said these types of industry partnerships are common at community colleges. Her job is to communicate with regional industries about their needs and make sure students are getting the right skills to get good jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ong tells industry partners, “I need to get students jobs. You want a talent pipeline? We need to work together on that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11798630\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Foothill-cloud-computing-campus-800x555.jpg\" alt=\"A student government booth sits in front of the library on Foothill College's campus.\" width=\"800\" height=\"555\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11798630\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Foothill-cloud-computing-campus-800x555.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Foothill-cloud-computing-campus-160x111.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Foothill-cloud-computing-campus-1020x708.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/01/Foothill-cloud-computing-campus.jpg 1802w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A student government booth sits in front of the library on Foothill College’s campus. \u003ccite>(Katrina Schwartz/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Foothill has worked with Cisco for over 30 years, and they also have partnerships with Facebook and VMware. They’ve worked with trade unions for decades to train and apprentice new workers, and they’re trying to do the same thing in growing fields like tech and health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can turn around curriculum a lot faster than a four-year school can,” Ong said. “We are focused on always updating our curriculum, and creating new ones, so this is not a new factor in our faculty’s jobs. It really is something that they want to do, and are required to do as part of their teaching here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Foothill and Cañada College in Redwood City are the first Bay Area community colleges to offer in-person classes, AWS is working with a \u003ca href=\"https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/publicsector/aws-educate-collaborates-with-bay-area-consortium-on-cloud-curriculum/\">broader consortium of Bay Area schools\u003c/a> to offer cloud computing in all corners of the Bay Area. The consortium offers AWS scale — each training has faculty from various colleges, and they can work together to market the classes to the community. It also includes high schools with early college programs and allows all partners to share what works and what doesn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11753881,news_11757618,news_11740476 label='Community Colleges']Foothill currently has an on-campus class and an online one, but the professor, \u003ca href=\"https://foothill.edu/cs/directory.html?s=1&rec_id=2037\">Anand Venkataraman\u003c/a>, welcomes everyone to the in-person meetings. A student also records every session and puts it online for students in either section to use. Still, of the 40 students who enrolled for the online class, almost half dropped out. That’s not unusual for online courses, Ong said, but she’s working with Venkataraman to tweak the pacing and materials in the online course so it works better. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They got a grant from the Online Education Initiative to hire an instructional designer to help them make tweaks. They already know the graphics need updating, the pacing in some of the videos needs work and they may need to change the order of some of the modules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because this is the first run, I think we’re really getting a lot of information about where things ought to be, and where things ought not to be,” Ong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AWS sees community colleges as a good bet to build more diverse pipelines. In a statement, a company spokesperson wrote: \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will continue to increase the number of community colleges we collaborate with to create pathways from K12 into higher education and into the workforce. Collaborations with community colleges also help us to ensure we are expanding access into diverse communities — communities of color, low‐income communities, and rural — where awareness of and preparation for jobs and lifelong careers that previously might not have been attainable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AWS Educate also \u003ca href=\"https://aws.amazon.com/education/awseducate/\">has materials online\u003c/a> to teach about cloud computing, but that method doesn’t work for everyone. While the approximately 50 students at Foothill who’ve taken the introduction to cloud computing course won’t do much to stem the growing demand for cloud computing talent in the short term, Foothill says interest in next semester’s class is already up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Businesses as diverse as Gap, Sirius XM, Pinterest and many startups are moving their products to the cloud because it’s cheaper and easier than maintaining servers. The cloud has become a multi-billion dollar industry quickly, and there still aren’t enough people with cloud computing skills to fill all the jobs available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Companies are hungry enough for that skillset that they’re willing to get pretty creative to get talented people,” said Ethan Van der Heide, a technical recruiter for \u003ca href=\"https://www.workbridgeassociates.com/\">Workbridge Associates\u003c/a> in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Van der Heide described DevOps — a common title for these positions — as a mixture of coding, operations and people skills. Before the cloud started to dominate the industry, most companies had software developers who wrote the code and operational people who made sure it ran. Cloud computing collapses the distance between those roles, requiring knowledge of both sides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The skill sets are constantly changing,” Van der Heide said. “The tools are constantly changing. What’s relevant is constantly changing. So the best indicator is somebody who is constantly learning to keep up with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a recruiter, he’s looking for people who like to learn new things and who seek out learning opportunities. There’s a whole group of them just down Interstate 280 at Foothill College in Los Altos Hills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It’s part of a four-course sequence that will result in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) certification. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Widodo has worked in the tech industry for many years as a Unix systems administrator, but is looking for a new and better opportunity. She regularly takes classes at local community colleges to keep her skills sharp and was excited to see Foothill offering a class based on the AWS platform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I do see a lot of jobs posted by Amazon and I do see some opportunities,” Widodo said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She has enjoyed the Foothill class because it’s hands-on and problem-based. Students are working together in groups to build a voice- assistant, like Alexa or Siri, using AWS. For many of them, the cloud is new, even though most are technology industry professionals. Many see how the industry is changing and know they need to keep up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not really about switching jobs, but adapting to the new reality,” said Hip Long, a 28-year-old software developer and Foothill student. Long saw a demo video posted on AWS showing a software developer giving Alexa specific instructions to create a program, which the machine then created. In his experience, building a program takes months of communication with the finance and operations teams — he was inspired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can see the changes of the traditional way of writing software to the new way,” Long said. “It makes something impossible in the past become reality.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He doesn’t want to get left behind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These professionals are glad Foothill is offering cloud computing. At $31 per credit it’s an affordable way to upskill. But the genesis of the class did not come from students. It came from industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Amazon Web Services, their Educate Team, came knocking on our door and they said, ‘We need people with this skill and we don’t have them.

In the meantime, we have disabled Grindr’s MoPub account,” a Twitter spokesperson told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study found the dating app OKCupid shared details about a user’s sexuality, drug use, political views and more to an analytics company called Braze.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Match Group, the company that owns OKCupid and Tinder, said in a statement that privacy was at the core of its business, saying it only shares information to third parties that comply with applicable laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All Match Group products obtain from these vendors strict contractual commitments that ensure confidentiality, security of users’ personal information and strictly prohibit commercialization of this data,” a company spokesman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many app users, the study noted, never try to read or understand the privacy policies before using an app. But even if the policies are studied, the Norwegian researchers say the legalese-filled documents sometimes do not provide a complete picture of what is happening with a person’s personal information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If one actually attempts to read the privacy policy of any given app, the third parties who may receive personal data are often not mentioned by name.

This Twitter-owned go-between for personal data is controlled by a firm called MoPub.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Grindr only lists Twitter’s MoPub as an advertising partner, and encourages users to read the privacy policies of MoPub’s own partners to understand how data is used. MoPub lists more than 160 partners, which clearly makes it impossible for users to give an informed consent to how each of these partners may use personal data,” the \u003ca href=\"https://fil.forbrukerradet.no/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/2020-01-14-out-of-control-final-version.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">report\u003c/a> states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not the first time Grindr has become embroiled in controversy over data sharing.

In the meantime, we have disabled Grindr’s MoPub account,” a Twitter spokesperson told NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The study found the dating app OKCupid shared details about a user’s sexuality, drug use, political views and more to an analytics company called Braze.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Match Group, the company that owns OKCupid and Tinder, said in a statement that privacy was at the core of its business, saying it only shares information to third parties that comply with applicable laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All Match Group products obtain from these vendors strict contractual commitments that ensure confidentiality, security of users’ personal information and strictly prohibit commercialization of this data,” a company spokesman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many app users, the study noted, never try to read or understand the privacy policies before using an app. But even if the policies are studied, the Norwegian researchers say the legalese-filled documents sometimes do not provide a complete picture of what is happening with a person’s personal information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If one actually attempts to read the privacy policy of any given app, the third parties who may receive personal data are often not mentioned by name. If the third parties are actually listed, the consumer then has to read the privacy policies of these third parties to understand how they may use the data,” the study says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In other words, it is practically impossible for the consumer to have even a basic overview of what and where their personal data might be transmitted, or how it is used, even from only a single app.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2020 NPR.

But on the whole, we think that Facebook got this right,\" says Ben Wizner, director of the ACLU's Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Describing the gray area that political ads often occupy, Wizner added, \"I don't think Facebook is capable of doing effective fact-checking, and I don't think as a society we should want Facebook to be the entity that's making those kinds of distinctions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of the issue, he says, is the massive scale of political ads — not only at the federal, state and local levels in the U.S., but also in every country in which Facebook operates. Wizner predicts that if Facebook took up fact-checking in earnest, it would be inundated with demands from candidates and political campaigns that want the other side's ads taken down, rather than responding to them in public.\u003cbr>\n[pullquote size=\"small\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Ben Wizner, director of the ACLU's Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project\"]'It's possible for candidates to send one advertisement to me and a different one to my neighbor across the street.

With targeted ad campaigns, he adds, \"it's possible for candidates to send one advertisement to me and a different one to my neighbor across the street. And so that makes it easier for lies to go uncorrected.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the changes Wizner would like to see: more information from Facebook about which users have been targeted with political ads, so misleading information can be rebutted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If a candidate is going to run an ad that goes only to men in one neighborhood, or only to women in another, then we should know who the target audience was,\" he says. \"So that if the ad contains falsehoods, we know how to better target our responses and corrections. And Facebook should consider raising the minimum number of targeted audience members for ads — so that we're dealing with a more common political conversation, and not a different one for each household.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FEC's Weintraub has urged tech companies to take an aggressive stand against microtargeting potential voters with ads. In an opinion piece for The Washington Post last November, \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/11/01/dont-abolish-political-ads-social-media-stop-microtargeting/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Weintraub wrote\u003c/a>, \"Microtargeting by foreign and domestic actors in 2016 proved to be a potent weapon for spreading disinformation and sowing discord.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fears go beyond foreign interference. In recent months, Facebook, Twitter and Google \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/040cae3f6e654e0ab10befb9e46da55f\">refused to remove\u003c/a> a misleading video ad from President Trump’s campaign that targeted Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Today’s announcement is more window dressing around their decision to allow paid misinformation,\" said Bill Russo, a campaign spokesman for Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"political-ads\" label=\"Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the 2020 presidential campaign ramps up, Facebook is pushing back on one form of potential misinformation: \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11794395/facebook-issues-new-rules-on-deepfake-videos-targeting-misinformation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">deepfake videos\u003c/a>. The company announced Tuesday it's banning videos that are manipulated to make it appear someone said words they didn't actually say, under certain criteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11750792/nancy-pelosi-doctored-videos-show-facebook-willing-enablers-of-russians-in-2016\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook allowed\u003c/a> doctored videos of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi — which were were slowed down to make her appear drunk — to stay on the social media site even though they were manipulated. The videos were spread by right-wing websites in an attempt to discredit the speaker as she publicly feuded with President Trump, who also shared one of the videos on his Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Facebook promises that its political ad policy will bring \"unprecedented transparency and control for political ads.\" The company plans to add a new control in early summer that will let users cut down on the number of political and social issue ads they see, on both Facebook and Instagram. Its users can also \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/business/help/1665333080167380?id=176276233019487\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">search its Ad Library\u003c/a> for details such as the size of an ad's audience and where those people live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The expanded transparency features will roll out in the first quarter of 2020 and will apply in all countries where we facilitate 'Paid for by' disclaimers on ads,\" Facebook says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those solutions don't satisfy critics who say the platform's users still won't be able to opt out completely and block all political ads. Experts also note that the tools Facebook is giving to its users can be complicated to use and can be easily overlooked as just another \"terms of service\" bulletin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"More transparency and user control over advertising is an undeniably good thing, but this policy still doesn't go far enough,\" says Nina Jankowicz, who studies technology and politics as the disinformation fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jankowicz says that while Facebook is giving people more control of the political ads they see, many users could have trouble navigating its tools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"How many people understand the way microtargeting works, let alone Facebook's Custom Audience feature, which allows advertisers to target on an even more precise level?\" she asks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jankowicz says Facebook should offer the controls in an easy-to-use design and do more to educate its more than 2 billion users about what the changes mean. And she believes people who are on Facebook should regularly review how their profiles handle politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Like democratic discourse, this should be a feature that users are constantly interacting with and adjusting based on their own inclinations and personal experiences on the site,\" she says. \"Based on Facebook's track record with features like these, I'm not sure that's going to happen.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Facebook's Leathern discussed the company's ad policy, he also acknowledged those who are unhappy with its practices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We recognize this is an issue that has provoked much public discussion — including much criticism of Facebook's position,\" Leathern wrote. \"We are not deaf to that and will continue to work with regulators and policymakers in our ongoing efforts to help protect elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2020 NPR.

And so that makes it easier for lies to go uncorrected.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the changes Wizner would like to see: more information from Facebook about which users have been targeted with political ads, so misleading information can be rebutted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If a candidate is going to run an ad that goes only to men in one neighborhood, or only to women in another, then we should know who the target audience was,\" he says. \"So that if the ad contains falsehoods, we know how to better target our responses and corrections. And Facebook should consider raising the minimum number of targeted audience members for ads — so that we're dealing with a more common political conversation, and not a different one for each household.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FEC's Weintraub has urged tech companies to take an aggressive stand against microtargeting potential voters with ads. In an opinion piece for The Washington Post last November, \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/11/01/dont-abolish-political-ads-social-media-stop-microtargeting/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Weintraub wrote\u003c/a>, \"Microtargeting by foreign and domestic actors in 2016 proved to be a potent weapon for spreading disinformation and sowing discord.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fears go beyond foreign interference.

The company announced Tuesday it's banning videos that are manipulated to make it appear someone said words they didn't actually say, under certain criteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11750792/nancy-pelosi-doctored-videos-show-facebook-willing-enablers-of-russians-in-2016\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook allowed\u003c/a> doctored videos of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi — which were were slowed down to make her appear drunk — to stay on the social media site even though they were manipulated. The videos were spread by right-wing websites in an attempt to discredit the speaker as she publicly feuded with President Trump, who also shared one of the videos on his Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Facebook promises that its political ad policy will bring \"unprecedented transparency and control for political ads.\" The company plans to add a new control in early summer that will let users cut down on the number of political and social issue ads they see, on both Facebook and Instagram. Its users can also \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/business/help/1665333080167380?id=176276233019487\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">search its Ad Library\u003c/a> for details such as the size of an ad's audience and where those people live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The expanded transparency features will roll out in the first quarter of 2020 and will apply in all countries where we facilitate 'Paid for by' disclaimers on ads,\" Facebook says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those solutions don't satisfy critics who say the platform's users still won't be able to opt out completely and block all political ads. Experts also note that the tools Facebook is giving to its users can be complicated to use and can be easily overlooked as just another \"terms of service\" bulletin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"More transparency and user control over advertising is an undeniably good thing, but this policy still doesn't go far enough,\" says Nina Jankowicz, who studies technology and politics as the disinformation fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jankowicz says that while Facebook is giving people more control of the political ads they see, many users could have trouble navigating its tools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"How many people understand the way microtargeting works, let alone Facebook's Custom Audience feature, which allows advertisers to target on an even more precise level?\" she asks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jankowicz says Facebook should offer the controls in an easy-to-use design and do more to educate its more than 2 billion users about what the changes mean. And she believes people who are on Facebook should regularly review how their profiles handle politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Like democratic discourse, this should be a feature that users are constantly interacting with and adjusting based on their own inclinations and personal experiences on the site,\" she says. \"Based on Facebook's track record with features like these, I'm not sure that's going to happen.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Facebook's Leathern discussed the company's ad policy, he also acknowledged those who are unhappy with its practices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We recognize this is an issue that has provoked much public discussion — including much criticism of Facebook's position,\" Leathern wrote. \"We are not deaf to that and will continue to work with regulators and policymakers in our ongoing efforts to help protect elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Sofar Sounds—a company that books small, acoustic concerts at houses, stores and office spaces—has reached a $460,357.50 settlement with the New York State Department of Labor, \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2019/biz/news/whats-next-for-sofar-sounds-and-its-genius-volunteer-based-business-model-1203325982/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003cem>Variety\u003c/em> reports\u003c/a>. The money will be distributed among 654 unpaid workers, or, in Sofar parlance, “ambassadors,” who staffed concerts for the for-profit company between 2016 and 2019. [aside postid='arts_13857471']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The settlement comes after years of scrutiny of Sofar Sounds’ business model. Since its debut in London in 2009, the startup expanded to hundreds of cities across the globe, including San Francisco, Santa Cruz and San Jose, and became profitable by charging at the door for “secret shows” while using volunteer crews and paying musicians negligible stipends. When KQED’s Emma Silvers broke the story of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13114272/sofar-sounds-house-shows-airbnb-middleman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sofar Sounds’ labor practices\u003c/a> in 2017, the company was valued at an estimated $22 million, with investment from Virgin’s Richard Branson. Meanwhile, bands were compensated with videos of their performances (and no cash), and then paid $50 per concert once they became “Sofar alums” and played additional shows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think they talk a lot about supporting local artists, but what they’re actually doing is perpetuating the idea that it’s okay for musicians to get paid shit,” Oakland singer-songwriter Madeline Kinney told KQED at the time. [aside postid='arts_13114272']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2019, \u003ca href=\"https://techcrunch.com/2019/05/21/how-sofar-sounds-works/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TechCrunch\u003c/a> reported that Sofar upped its fees to $100 per band for a 25 minute set (which can work out to less than minimum wage when factoring in musicians’ travel and rehearsal time). The hosts who volunteered their homes as venues weren’t paid, yet Sofar made at least $1,000 to $1,600 per show, according to the report. In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sofarsounds.com/blog/articles/how-money-works-at-a-sofar-show\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recent blog post\u003c/a>, Sofar CEO Jim Lucchese promised to increase artist compensation for bigger shows in February 2020. In September 2019, the company also pledged to hire paid, part-time crews to staff its concerts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When the Department of Labor opened its investigation, Sofar cooperated fully and immediately changed its business model,” the New York State Department of Labor wrote in an announcement. “Sofar now staffs all its events with paid employees. The company also agreed to immediately compensate ambassadors who provided any unpaid work.” [aside postid='arts_13852882']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the settlement was reached, a Sofar spokesperson told \u003cem>Variety\u003c/em>: “Today’s agreement with the New York State Department of Labor stipulates no admission of guilt or wrongdoing and confirms our operating model is fully compliant with New York state law. We thank them for working collaboratively with us in New York, Sofar’s biggest U.S. market. We are excited about resolving these issues and moving forward in 2020, with a continued focus on connecting local and independent musicians with passionate music fans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Since its debut in London in 2009, the startup expanded to hundreds of cities across the globe, including San Francisco, Santa Cruz and San Jose, and became profitable by charging at the door for “secret shows” while using volunteer crews and paying musicians negligible stipends. When KQED’s Emma Silvers broke the story of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13114272/sofar-sounds-house-shows-airbnb-middleman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sofar Sounds’ labor practices\u003c/a> in 2017, the company was valued at an estimated $22 million, with investment from Virgin’s Richard Branson. Meanwhile, bands were compensated with videos of their performances (and no cash), and then paid $50 per concert once they became “Sofar alums” and played additional shows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think they talk a lot about supporting local artists, but what they’re actually doing is perpetuating the idea that it’s okay for musicians to get paid shit,” Oakland singer-songwriter Madeline Kinney told KQED at the time. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The hosts who volunteered their homes as venues weren’t paid, yet Sofar made at least $1,000 to $1,600 per show, according to the report.
