World



Maxim Februari writes regularly about data-driven government.

He was involved in the SyRI case (digital rights NGO´s vs the Netherlands), in which the Hague District Court considered the legality of the Dutch System Risk Indication (SyRI).

The court held that the system, used to predict the likelihood of a citizen committing benefit or tax fraud, violates article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
