Cyberattacks targeting our personal data are on the rise, yet our legal framework for tackling them are insufficient. To force the state to properly protect the data it requires the public to provide, we must recognise that it is the individual who ultimately owns that data. My thoughts in the @Times today thetimes.com/comment/column…

When it comes to cyber hygiene, UK plc needs to wash its face. The @ukhomeoffice & @SciTechgovuk Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2026 reveals that cyber security & resilience has declined over the past decade in many areas & GDPR wasn’t a panacea handleygill.co.uk/handley-gill-b…

@DavidDavisMP interesting opinion piece in @thetimes on the protection of personal data. You may be interested in our analysis of last week’s Cyber Security Breaches Survey which reveals cyber security has declined over the past decade in several areas: handleygill.co.uk/handley-gill-b…

We’ve analysed & published our response to @ICOnews’ consultation on its draft guidance on the research, archiving & statistics provisions (the RAS purposes) to reflect changes to the U.K. GDPR & DPA 2018 introduced by the Data (Use & Access) Act 2025 handleygill.co.uk/handley-gill-b…

@KanishkaNarayan @NCSC Doesn’t this just further demonstrate that the Cyber Security & Resilience Bill doesn’t go anywhere near far enough and we need a holistic approach to protect the people, property & prosperity of UK plc? handleygill.co.uk/handley-gill-b…

3/ AISI works closely with the @NCSC. We've acted to protect critical national infrastructure and the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill will strengthen protections further, including making data centres CNI for the first time. ncsc.gov.uk/blogs/why-cybe….

1/The UK has been a global leader in tracking AI cyber capabilities for 2+ years. Our testing shows accelerating capabilities. The UK's @AISecurityInst most recently tested Anthropic's Mythos model, some reflections🧵 telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

@welshhighlandrr @johnjohnstonmi @ICOnews doesn’t award compensation and their current complaint backlog is 40 weeks long. Best to complain to the controller and, if there has been real damage or distress, issue a claim.

@johnjohnstonmi Those whose email addresses have been shared could claim compensation, they just need to raise a complaint with the ICO Make a complaint about how an organisation has used your personal information | ICO share.google/XaqdSPcy619RA3…

NEW: Reform UK have just sent an email to supporters about a campaign rally in Aberdeen... but have accidentally included the email addresses of absolutely everyone on the mailing list.

@per_incuriam2 We say this as some of the people who negotiated the drafting of parts of the exemption in the Data Protection Act 2018

@per_incuriam2 The fact someone isn’t a professional journalist does not prevent them from relying on the special purposes exemption for journalism, art or literature. Nor do we consider there to be no circumstances in which the publication of a spent conviction could be in the public interest

Wow. I’ve just received a threatening letter from Ben Delo’s solicitors Addleshaw Goddard. They are claiming, among other things, that it is unlawful to publish information about Delo’s conviction for an anti-money laundering offence in the US. They also say I cannot publish their letter. An extract is below. Is Delo going to get his solicitors to threaten everyone who mentions his conviction? How is this not a SLAPP? @sra_solicitors @DanNeidle

@WilliamJHague Read your piece in @thetimes today with interest. Another aspect of the technological advance in AI weaponry that global governance is failing to keep up with is autonomous weaponry, which we wrote about here: handleygill.co.uk/handley-gill-b…

For centuries we assumed it was improper or unfeasible to assassinate top leaders in wartime. That’s now changed. With AI and precision weapons, a state can now kill a foreign leader almost at will. The age of temptation has arrived 👇 thetimes.com/comment/column…

@bwebster135 @CampaignFoI @FT Yes! We argued this to @ICOnews at a conference back in March 2024: sepia-turbot-yn86.squarespace.com/handley-gill-b…

Publishing proactively will help reduce the cost of information requests! That’s what I’m fighting for: tinyurl.com/mrx5z5mb ft.com/content/2c34ad… via @ft

@PrivacyMatters The chair of @EHRC recently gave evidence to the @UKParliament Joint Committee on Human Rights to the effect that it was good the government was going to regulate LFR with the @ukhomeoffice consultation - we wrote to both pointing out EHRC is already meant to be regulating it!

So many well respected people have LONG pointed out serious issues and concerns with FRT. Perhaps if we had a regulator that cared and had bite we might now be in a different place .. the same regulator that many years ago warned we were sleep walking into a surveillance society

@tamirpdavis Hi Tamir. If you’re looking for input on the legal, regulatory & ethical issues related to the use of AI in recruitment & the workplace, we’d be happy to help: info@handleygill.com

Have you ever abandoned applying for a job because it used #AI (video interviews, automated screening, chatbots etc.)? I'd love to hear from you for a big report on AI in hiring. Anonymous replies/DMs welcome, or email t.davis@cv-library.co.uk #journorequest #prrequest #PR
