The United Kingdom (UK) government is developing a
“murder prediction” programme which it hopes can use personal
data of those known to the authorities to identify the people most
likely to become killers. Researchers are alleged to be using
algorithms to analyse the information of thousands of people,
including victims of crime, as they try to identify those at greatest
risk of committing serious violent offences.
The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) says the scheme will “review
offender characteristics that increase the risk of committing
homicide” and “explore alternative and innovative data science
techniques to risk assessment of homicide”. The project would
“provide evidence towards improving risk assessment of serious
crime and ultimately contribute to protecting the public via better
analysis”, a spokesperson added.
The MoJ hopes the project will help boost public safety, but
campaigners have called it “chilling and dystopian”.
Sofia Lyall, a researcher for Statewatch, the pressure group that
discovered the existence of the project, said: “Time and again, research
shows that algorithmic systems for ‘predicting’ crime are inherently
flawed. This latest model […] will reinforce and magnify the structural
discrimination underpinning the criminal legal system.”
“Like other systems of its kind, it will code in bias towards
racialised and low-income communities. Building an automated
tool to profile people as violent criminals is deeply wrong, and
using such sensitive data on mental health, addiction and disability
is highly intrusive and alarming,” added Lyall.

meaning of ‘profile’, in ‘Building an automated tool to profile
people as violent criminals’ (last paragraph of text CG1A7).

Stateless People
Stateless people are not recognized as citizens by any country. UNHCR (United Nations High
Commissioner for Refugees) advocates for their rights and works to prevent and end statelessness globally.
Millions of people around the world are denied the right to a nationality, which leaves them stateless. As a
result, they may be unable to access other basic rights and services. They are also often at a higher risk of
exploitation and abuse. At the end of June 2024, UNHCR’s statistical reporting counted 4.4 million stateless
people. Given that most countries do not report statelessness data, the actual figure is believed to be
substantially higher. Stateless people can be found in almost every country and in all regions of the world,
and most live in the same country in which they were born.
Stateless people face a lifetime of missed opportunities and disappointment. When they are born, their
parents may not be able to register their birth, obtain a birth certificate or other legal identity documents.
Without this, they often cannot be enrolled in school. If they do manage to enter school and receive education,
they may be barred from sitting formal exams to progress or enter university, unless they can prove their legal
identity. As an adult, they may not be allowed to work legally, which leaves them at an increased risk of
exploitation and abuse as they take low-paying and informal jobs. They often cannot access public services
like health care. They also frequently cannot open a bank account, vote, get a passport to travel, buy a home
or even get married. Stateless people cannot confer a nationality on their children. If the child is unable to
obtain a nationality through either of their parents or from the country of birth, they will also end up stateless,
perpetuating statelessness across generations.
What is the difference between a stateless person and a refugee? A stateless person is not considered
a national of any country. A refugee is someone who has fled their country to escape conflict or persecution
and has crossed an international border. While most refugees have a nationality, a person can be both
stateless and a refugee. However, the majority of stateless people live within the country in which they were
born and have never crossed an international border.
Adapted from https://www.unhcr.org/about-unhcr/who-we-protect/stateless-people
According to the text, read the statements and choose the correct alternative.
I - UNHCR supports stateless people to move to a new country.
II - There are probably more than 4.4 million stateless people in the world.
III - Stateless people prefer informal jobs because they don’t have bank accounts.
IV - Stateless people may find themselves in a vicious circle.
V - Stateless people don’t have a nationality, neither do refugees.

A New Trend in Cryptocurrency: Selling Your Iris
Characters of countless sci-fi films have relied on iris scans to unlock hidden rooms, power up
advanced gadgets, or authenticate their identities in a tech-centric world. What once was only a Hollywood
fantasy is now becoming a reality, with similar applications just around the corner. These days, it’s not unusual
to hear about shopping malls in cities like Barcelona featuring tiny booths where visitors scan their eyes.
The concept is puzzling, especially when they explain that the goal is to “scan your iris to give you
cryptocurrencies.”
Worldcoin, one of Sam Altman’s (director of OpenAI, creators of ChatGPT) ventures, has recently
gained increased attention due to their new initiative: offering money in exchange for iris scans. Worldcoin
scans the biometric data of the eye and then compensates individuals with cryptocurrency. However, many
ask the same questions: What (1)____ Worldcoin gain from our iris? What (2)____ they really planning to do
with it? Why (3)____ the iris so important? How (4)____ it affect your privacy?
Unlike data such as phone numbers, credit cards, or passwords, biometric data is unchangeable.
Biometric data includes traits that can be used to identify you, such as your voice, fingerprint, or iris. They are
inherently yours and non-transferable. Sharing biometric data could expose individuals to risks of tracking
and surveillance, potentially enabling identification without consent through various technologies. Often
without realizing it, people have given permission for their data to be sold.
After carefully studying the legality of this practice, Spain has banned these operations and is removing
the stands and iris scanners used by Worldcoin. In countries like France or Brazil, Worldcoin has also faced
bans on conducting their activities, while claiming they’re leaving voluntarily rather than because it’s illegal.
