Day 10; Session 1- Kapil Sibal (KS ) :continues with arguments against Aadhaar. Compares Aadhar ID with National ID for Israel and points out that in Israel, information can be used only for purpose they are collected. No provision for metadata. #scobserver @KapilSibal
KS : Reads from Puttaswamy judgment (Right to Privacy case) which says that Information is power. Refers to very expensive acquisition of Whatsapp by Facebook to argue that these services are highly valued because of information access. #scobserver
cont -services like Whatsapp,Facebook,Uber have data but in silos unlike Aadhar, where all data are stored in centralised database and that makes it dangerous. In silos, the information is consequential, but under centralised database, it provides personality mapping.#scobserver
#Aadhaar Day 9; Session 1 - @KapilSibal begins with reading a newspaper report abt, how ppl are being denied pension because of Aadhaar. Justice Bhushan enquires - if there are so many problems with Aadhaar, then why 1.2 billion ppl have enrolled for it? #scobserver,
replies that difference between enrolment and requirement of authentication each time. Authentication requirement continuously leads to exclusion, which is a ground for challenging Aadhar. J. Bhushan seems non-convinced. #scobserver
J. Chandrachud says that exclusion can be because of 2 factors - lack of infrastructure and biological factor like old age. Observes that government can upgrade infrastructure. ASG Tushar Mehta questions claim of exclusion due to Aadhaar. #scobserver #Aadhaar
