Big tech's ad business is fueling a scam ecosystem
Q: What would you include in a regulatory framework to effectively curb deceptive social media ads?
Katie argues for accountability at the top of the chain, mandatory KYC for advertisers, a robust takedown process, and serious consequences for platforms that monetize scams, along with adopting international duty-of-care models as a template for US policy.
Big tech's ad business is fueling a scam ecosystem
Q: What are your thoughts on the SCAM Act and whether it's a good starting point for regulation?
Katie supports any regulation that requires Know Your Customer processes for ads, emphasizes accountability for platforms, and believes there should be consequences for non-compliance to rein in scam operations.
Big tech's ad business is fueling a scam ecosystem
Q: Can you tell me a little bit about yourself, your company, and its mission?
Katie explains she is the Director of the Tech Transparency Project, a non-partisan nonprofit focused on tech accountability and giving the public a seat at the table regarding technologies they rely on, including harms these technologies may cause.
How AI is supercharging identity fraud
Q: What policy steps did the ABA and Better Identity Coalition propose to regulators?
They propose 20 distinct actions emphasizing government as the authoritative source of identity, closer alignment between physical and digital credentials, encouragement of modern authentication standards, international collaboration, and consumer education.
How AI is supercharging identity fraud
Q: How might generative AI change identity verification and what mitigations are recommended?
GenAI both threatens and helps: it can enable deepfakes that defeat traditional checks, but it also enables defenses like advanced liveness detection and more robust phishing-resistant authentication; the recommendation is to adopt cryptographically signed credentials and layered authentication.
