Hi Kenneth, I've followed your Twitter account for some time and appreciate your work. I'm writing because I have just secured a "Community Advocate" oversight role on the Privacy Policy Advisory Council of the Austin Regional Intelligence Center. For your reference, their privacy policy is posted here: http://www.austintexas.gov/department/austin-regional-intelligence-center I believe there is an opportunity (and a need) to perform comparative analysis of the privacy policies of the fusion centers. My goal would be to identify the best policies and encourage normalization towards them (where "best" is defined as respectful of civil liberties). I'm also eager to learn about the relationships between fusion centers, the "right to know" and "need to know" agreements that determine the exchange of information between them, and the criteria by which fusion centers evaluate one another's privacy policies when establishing relationships. Your message was timely so I wanted to be sure to reach out to say hello and open up the opportunity for dialogue. Please do keep me posted on your work in Philadelphia. http://gregoryfoster.name/gregoryfoster.pgpkey gf -- Gregory Foster || [email protected] @gregoryfoster <> http://entersection.com/ -- Liberationtech is public & archives are searchable on Google.
