At the heart of the tech industry, Bay Area residents are often the guinea pigs for startups, with unknown and unpredictable side effects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition B would mandate that San Francisco create what supporters say would be the toughest data-protection policy of any U.S. city, and would go beyond California’s landmark Consumer Privacy Act. It would cover data collected both by government agencies and any private entity doing business with the city — from Facebook, Google and Uber, all the way down to a bike shop, toilet-paper supplier or street vendor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's time that San Francisco and the nation start actually evolving policies where your location can't be tracked without your consent,” said District 3 Supervisor Aaron Peskin, who authored Proposition B. “This is a teachable moment. San Francisco can lead the nation in privacy-first policies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the \u003ca href=\"https://sfelections.sfgov.org/sites/default/files/Documents/candidates/Nov%202018/LT_B.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposed Charter Amendment\u003c/a>, which was put on the ballot by a unanimous vote of the Board of Supervisors, has split advocates and groups that are normally allies — and that otherwise enthusiastically support 99.9 percent of the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The opposition is primarily coming from journalists and First Amendment watchdogs. They’re concerned that a small subsection of the measure, only 36 words long, could water down San Francisco’s legendary \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfcityattorney.org/good-government/sunshine/sunshine-ordinance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sunshine Ordinance\u003c/a>, which mandates transparency in city government. They argue — and Peskin and the city attorney dispute — that the language could give the mayor and Board of Supervisors the power to restrict access to public records, meetings and ordinance oversight without voters’ approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably, there’s been no vocal objection from Silicon Valley, which appears to be holding its fire for the implementing legislation should the measure pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Guiding Principles\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>So what exactly does Proposition B propose? It contains 11 principles that would apply to city officials, departments, commissions, boards and “other entities”; all contractors and lease holders, and anyone with city-issued licenses, permits or grants. Many principles exceed the scope of the new state law, including:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>opting out of handing over personal data but still receive a company's services;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>the right to move about the city and not be tracked without consent;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>discouraging the collection of personal information regarding race, religion, sexual orientation, disability and other potentially “sensitive demographics”;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>anticipating and mitigating bias in data collection and the use of algorithms.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>But exactly what the policies would look like is still unknown. Should voters approve Proposition B, the principles would simply guide the city administrator in writing a new ordinance that would be presented to the Board of Supervisors by May 31, 2019. Public hearings would follow before the board voted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This proposition is just really a stepping stone,” said Sameena Usman, with the Bay Area Council on American Islamic Relations, or CAIR.

Her hope is that Proposition B could lead to a separate surveillance ordinance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11703217\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 650px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11703217\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0.jpg 650w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-375x282.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Theresa Buckley, an attorney with the San Francisco Treasurer and Tax Collector’s Office, appearing before the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force in early October. \u003ccite>(Noah Arroyo/San Francisco Public Press)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Big Desire for Digital Privacy\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Data protection remains a major issue in the Bay Area. A May 2018 Silicon Valley Leadership Group survey of 1,843 voters in five counties found that 86 percent were concerned about the security of the personal and financial data they’ve given to companies or placed online. More than two-thirds have had their data compromised, and more than half of the respondents supported more government regulation of how companies use that information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among all voters, 51 percent backed more regulation, 34 percent preferred about the same degree of regulation and 8 percent wanted less. Liberals were far more likely than conservatives to favor tighter regulations (57 percent versus 38 percent). Both about equally supported no change (38 percent for conservatives, 33 percent for liberals), while conservatives were six times more likely than liberals to want less government intervention (3 percent versus 18 percent). By comparison, a Reuters national poll in March found that 46 percent of adults supported increased regulation, 20 percent said current laws are sufficient and 17 percent wanted less regulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In an ideal world, Congress would have taken this up, but most of the congressional action has not been helpful,” said Shahid Buttar, with the Electronic Frontier Foundation. “It has fallen to states and cities to innovate and to protect innovation and to protect user rights.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the past few years, Oakland, Seattle and Chicago have adopted privacy programs. California legislators went further in June, passing the nation’s strongest privacy safeguards, which Gov. Jerry Brown signed. Taking effect in 2020, the \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB375\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California Consumer Privacy Act\u003c/a> includes a European-style “right to erasure” of one’s personal information, and permits consumers to sue for damages after data breaches.

In a written statement, the company said, “We look forward to working with policymakers in San Francisco on finding approaches that protect people and support responsible innovation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hepner said Facebook and several other tech companies initially approached Peskin’s office when they heard a privacy policy was in the works. But they “stayed out of opposing it, probably because they would like to know how the trailing legislation forms” next spring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Frontier Foundation spoke with Peskin’s office during the drafting process but have taken no position on the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What may tip the balance for some who share concerns about governmental transparency but crave privacy protections is that Proposition B itself doesn’t change any laws. If voters approve, its impact would not be known until May, when the city administrator presents a fleshed out policy for supervisors to approve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the sake of expediency in getting some simple amendments changed,” the measure “could be helpful, ” said Wolfe, the chair of the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force.

At the heart of the tech industry, Bay Area residents are often the guinea pigs for startups, with unknown and unpredictable side effects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition B would mandate that San Francisco create what supporters say would be the toughest data-protection policy of any U.S. city, and would go beyond California’s landmark Consumer Privacy Act. It would cover data collected both by government agencies and any private entity doing business with the city — from Facebook, Google and Uber, all the way down to a bike shop, toilet-paper supplier or street vendor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's time that San Francisco and the nation start actually evolving policies where your location can't be tracked without your consent,” said District 3 Supervisor Aaron Peskin, who authored Proposition B. “This is a teachable moment. San Francisco can lead the nation in privacy-first policies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the \u003ca href=\"https://sfelections.sfgov.org/sites/default/files/Documents/candidates/Nov%202018/LT_B.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposed Charter Amendment\u003c/a>, which was put on the ballot by a unanimous vote of the Board of Supervisors, has split advocates and groups that are normally allies — and that otherwise enthusiastically support 99.9 percent of the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The opposition is primarily coming from journalists and First Amendment watchdogs. They’re concerned that a small subsection of the measure, only 36 words long, could water down San Francisco’s legendary \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfcityattorney.org/good-government/sunshine/sunshine-ordinance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sunshine Ordinance\u003c/a>, which mandates transparency in city government. They argue — and Peskin and the city attorney dispute — that the language could give the mayor and Board of Supervisors the power to restrict access to public records, meetings and ordinance oversight without voters’ approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably, there’s been no vocal objection from Silicon Valley, which appears to be holding its fire for the implementing legislation should the measure pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Guiding Principles\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>So what exactly does Proposition B propose? It contains 11 principles that would apply to city officials, departments, commissions, boards and “other entities”; all contractors and lease holders, and anyone with city-issued licenses, permits or grants. Many principles exceed the scope of the new state law, including:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>opting out of handing over personal data but still receive a company's services;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>the right to move about the city and not be tracked without consent;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>discouraging the collection of personal information regarding race, religion, sexual orientation, disability and other potentially “sensitive demographics”;\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>anticipating and mitigating bias in data collection and the use of algorithms.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>But exactly what the policies would look like is still unknown. Should voters approve Proposition B, the principles would simply guide the city administrator in writing a new ordinance that would be presented to the Board of Supervisors by May 31, 2019. Public hearings would follow before the board voted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This proposition is just really a stepping stone,” said Sameena Usman, with the Bay Area Council on American Islamic Relations, or CAIR. The group has \u003ca href=\"https://ca.cair.com/sfba/updates/november-2018-city-county-ballot-measures/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">endorsed\u003c/a> Proposition B, and is most interested in how any resulting privacy legislation would address surveillance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you have local cities that might be gathering this surveillance data and potentially sharing it with the federal government, that's very concerning,” she added, noting the Trump administration’s interest in tracking Muslims. Her hope is that Proposition B could lead to a separate surveillance ordinance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11703217\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 650px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11703217\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0.jpg 650w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-375x282.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/sunshine_0-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Theresa Buckley, an attorney with the San Francisco Treasurer and Tax Collector’s Office, appearing before the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force in early October. \u003ccite>(Noah Arroyo/San Francisco Public Press)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Big Desire for Digital Privacy\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Data protection remains a major issue in the Bay Area. A May 2018 Silicon Valley Leadership Group survey of 1,843 voters in five counties found that 86 percent were concerned about the security of the personal and financial data they’ve given to companies or placed online. More than two-thirds have had their data compromised, and more than half of the respondents supported more government regulation of how companies use that information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among all voters, 51 percent backed more regulation, 34 percent preferred about the same degree of regulation and 8 percent wanted less. Liberals were far more likely than conservatives to favor tighter regulations (57 percent versus 38 percent). Both about equally supported no change (38 percent for conservatives, 33 percent for liberals), while conservatives were six times more likely than liberals to want less government intervention (3 percent versus 18 percent). By comparison, a Reuters national poll in March found that 46 percent of adults supported increased regulation, 20 percent said current laws are sufficient and 17 percent wanted less regulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In an ideal world, Congress would have taken this up, but most of the congressional action has not been helpful,” said Shahid Buttar, with the Electronic Frontier Foundation. “It has fallen to states and cities to innovate and to protect innovation and to protect user rights.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the past few years, Oakland, Seattle and Chicago have adopted privacy programs. California legislators went further in June, passing the nation’s strongest privacy safeguards, which Gov. Jerry Brown signed.

It reads:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>... the Board of Supervisors is authorized by ordinance to amend voter-approved ordinances regarding privacy, open meetings, or public records, provided that any such amendment is not inconsistent with the purpose or intent of the voter-approved ordinance.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>“We were trying to do a solid for the sunshine advocates,” said Peskin’s aide Lee Hepner.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Language Matters\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>But Sunshine advocates complained that they weren’t consulted on the wording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The phrase “intent and purpose” is central to the debate, said First Amendment Coalition Executive Director David Snyder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s a very subjective, squishy phrase,” said Snyder, who served as the Sunshine task force’s attorney from 2010 to 2012. “It's kind of a circular thing: ‘Consistent with the intent and purpose’ means whatever the Board of Supervisors deems to be ‘consistent with the intent and purpose.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Added Drange, “Essentially it would give them the power to check themselves. We're handing over the authority that currently rests with the public and saying, Hey, if you guys want to make changes to the ordinance, go ahead.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the First Amendment Coalition is officially opposed, Snyder still believes “the overall stated purposes and the overall purpose of Proposition B is a laudable one.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I doubt that that sentence was put in there as a kind of intentional poison pill,” he added. “But the problem with wording like that is that it can ultimately be used that way, regardless of what the original intent was.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin said worries about an attack on the Sunshine Ordinance are unfounded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think they've misread it,” said Peskin of the journalists’ organization. “I respect them, but I think that their fears are misplaced.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He and the measure’s supporters, including the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfdemocrats.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco Democratic Party\u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.theleaguesf.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco League of Pissed Off Voters\u003c/a>, maintain that the language is clearly in support of open government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin said the phrase “is not inconsistent with the purpose or intent of the voter-approved ordinance” means that no changes could be made to the task force, or the Sunshine Ordinance itself, that didn’t maintain its strength.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The sentence is very clear,” Peskin told the Public Press. “It cannot in any way diminish the purposes of Sunshine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any notion that public records laws may be weakened is not only legally impossible, it is a distraction from the important privacy rights that Proposition B would advance,” he wrote in rebuttal to the opponents’ ballot argument.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a written statement, the San Francisco City Attorney’s Office supported Peskin’s notion, saying that if Proposition B passes, “we will advise the City Administrator, Supervisors and Mayor about any proposed privacy ordinances that could impact the Sunshine Ordinance to help ensure they are consistent with the voters’ intent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Journalists Caught Off Guard\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>But Drange said the journalists' organization was “caught off guard” in July when it learned how Proposition B might affect the task force.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was already on its way to the printer,” Drange said. “The ship had sailed in terms of trying to get it altered or get it removed.” The Society of Professional Journalists already submits names for two of the 11 task force seats, and had been part of previous conversations seeking a fix for the New America Media vacancy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s bizarre that no one in government let us know,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drange said there have been “attacks on the task force” in the past, and he fears a future Board of Supervisors could change its makeup for political reasons, or in other unproductive ways. “They could add a representative for tech companies,” he suggested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was a purge of many members of the task force back in 2012 who had a publicly disagreed with a couple of the supervisors at that time, and a couple high-profile cases,’ said Drange. “And then following that, the SPJ nominations for Task Force members in 2014 were actually delayed for months.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Task force chair Wolfe said they were “not notified at all,” and also learned out about subsection i when it was too late to suggest different language. “We had to find out from members of the public and from open government advocates,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peskin’s office also pointed out that the measure’s text was publicly available for 60 days, and notes the irony that groups focused on transparency didn’t take advantage of that window.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Tech Is on the Sidelines — Watching\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Facebook hasn’t taken a position on Proposition B. In a written statement, the company said, “We look forward to working with policymakers in San Francisco on finding approaches that protect people and support responsible innovation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hepner said Facebook and several other tech companies initially approached Peskin’s office when they heard a privacy policy was in the works. But they “stayed out of opposing it, probably because they would like to know how the trailing legislation forms” next spring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Frontier Foundation spoke with Peskin’s office during the drafting process but have taken no position on the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What may tip the balance for some who share concerns about governmental transparency but crave privacy protections is that Proposition B itself doesn’t change any laws. If voters approve, its impact would not be known until May, when the city administrator presents a fleshed out policy for supervisors to approve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the sake of expediency in getting some simple amendments changed,” the measure “could be helpful, ” said Wolfe, the chair of the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force. He said he’s “neutral” on the measure, “because the meat of it is so important.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But “transparency is extremely important these days,” he added. “These laws are really important and they need to be protected with the utmost of care.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11703210/a-few-key-words-divide-allies-on-data-protection-measure-proposition-b","authors":["213"],"programs":["news_72"],"categories":["news_6188","news_8"],"tags":["news_20191","news_24446","news_74"],"affiliates":["news_1832"],"featImg":"news_10348123","label":"source_news_11703210"},"news_10466437":{"type":"posts","id":"news_10466437","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"10466437","score":null,"sort":[1427409537000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"lawsuit-challenging-san-franciscos-waterfront-height-limits-advances","title":"S.F.

They’re planning on putting $11 million in [to affordable housing].
