Interesting take by Paul Bradshaw on how Machine Learning might inadvertently become a dangerous tool in organisations trying to identify whistleblowers using anomaly detection (references a previous ML presentation of mine for Insider Threat purposes).

“The point for journalists is that collections of small actions – including those which protect the whistleblower – can be just as compromising as obvious oversights like a lack of information security.”
