AI Reads Privacy Policies So You Don't Have To -- and It's Actually Pretty Good
An anonymous reader shares a report: Don't you absolutely hate how dense and confusing privacy policies are? Considering they're full of gotchas and intentionally obscure legalese, it's no surprise that hardly anyone bothers to even read them -- we've simply accepted we're giving up our data, and with it, our sense of privacy. But thanks to this new policy-reading AI, things won't have to be this way for much longer. Guard is a recurrent neural network-based app that reads and analyzes privacy terms, so you don't have to. While it can't yet examine policies on request, the AI has rated the privacy terms of a slew of popular services like Netflix, Instagram, Twitter, and Tinder. What's particularly nifty about Guard is that it not only gives an overall score, but also breaks down the main threats included in privacy policies. It also lists the total number of threats, and looks at past privacy scandals a service has been involved in. Like I already said, Guard has only analyzed the privacy policies of a small batch of popular services, but you can easily suggest new apps for consideration. The app was built by developer Javi Rameerez, who created the software as part of his thesis on AI and natural language processing.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
