Post-American compute for a post-American Internet
Obviously, the non-American world has a digital sovereignty problem – Trump has means, motive and opportunity to order his tech companies to shut down any public official, large corporation, or individual who displeases him. In a world dominated by tech monopolies, duopolies and cartels, there’s every reason in the world to seek protection and insulation from these companies that are “too big to care” – and yet, the very same dominance that makes these companies such a danger also makes them indispensable.
Using Statistics to Document Human Rights Violations
Statistics can be a force for good, but what does that look like in practice? For Patrick Ball, it means using statistical methods to document human rights violations, uncover patterns of violence hidden by incomplete data, and provide evidence for international war crimes tribunals… His findings have been presented as evidence in international tribunals against war criminals such as Serbian and Yugoslav politician Slobodan Milošević and the de facto president of Guatemala, General José Efraín Ríos Montt. An ASA Fellow, Ball was honored with the Nature Awards John Maddox Prize in 2024 and the Karl E. Peace Award in 2018. He earned his BA from Columbia University and his PhD from the University of Michigan.
