United Kingdom, 2020 AD.

United Kingdom, 2020 AD. Algorithms decide so much about our lives that we are not even aware of. You might not think this important until one affects your life. Not knowing how the decisions are made and with what bias it was written is just part of the problem. It’s only when algorithmic decisions affect a lot of people lives, like in the exam debacle in the UK, that it comes on the radar. Under current UK law you can, under GDPR, take action to “not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing.” And because of this Ofqual, who regulate education in the UK, has to take quick and direct action to solve the exam results fiasco. However, please do not sit too comfortably; as the UK comes under more pressure with Brexit looming and negotiations underway this government is also considering loosening the UK internet and data protection laws in a deal with the US. A deal where GDPR will potentially be scrapped. https://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-algorithm/ https://www.facebook.com/103626624451616/posts/201031838044427/
