davidphilliposterVice.com's Ethan Gregory Dodge in The ‘Capital of Silicon Valley’ Is Ignoring Its Privacy Experts May 27, 2022 reports that San Jose's Privacy Task Force has a problem retaining members: They keep resigning. One, Dr. Roxana Marachi concluded "that the creation of the taskforce was largely performative" and resigned.
Interesting word: performative - it appears to mean the opposite of performs.
The article goes on to state: "Another taskforce member, whose name is redacted from the emails, also submitted their resignation in late March."
I'm both surprised and not surprised that a privacy task force keeps its membership private. But, I know, from having served on a city commission, that San Jose has sunshine laws - The city is required to do city business in public - so how can the membership of the privacy task force be private?
