An Advocate who denied me an internship after weeks of follow-ups and hours of waiting at his office, is now claiming online that he wants to help younger lawyers with their Law Council applications—just because he's running for ULS! 🙄
I appreciate you

. Thanks to everyone that has contributed towards this journey.
Is this help open to everyone or only your acquaintances ?
My concern with you is not because you denied me a placement, but the way you treated me!. I cannot narrate everything here..
@LivingMuhumuza
You have not gotten my point, Its not about me being denied a placement, Its about the way I was treated.
I totally understand that as you apply for a placement in a law firm or anywhere, you expect a rejection or a placement due to certain factor.
I’m not sure if I’m overreacting, but how can someone who hasn’t even made it to the admission list of the LDC insult the Chief Justice of this country?. Constructive critica is one thing, but resorting to ad hominem attacks is a completely different matter.
We are cordially inviting you to this year’s law symposium.The cornerstone of this year's event is greatly inspired by the dynamic nature of the law and the need for upcoming lawyers to embrace alternatives in the legal space .

would you give us an opportunity to share this with UCU Law school???.The young lawyers need to hear such words ,kindly give me a feedback like you always do !!!

All odds are stacked against those trying to progress in the legal profession. First, students are being denied admission to LDC, and now even obtaining a crucial recommendation letter for the Law Council is being denied by a PA.

Parliament has passed it today, waiting for the president to assent to it.

In a data Protection audit ,individuals who are knowledgeable in the law of the pertinent jurisdictions make a detailed investigation of a company’s data protection policies and practices.This should be done especially by companies that have branches outside .
Why is a Data Sharing agreement important for organisations, small businesses and individuals?
The agreement according to
@ICOnews
Data sharing Code, sets out the purpose of the Data Sharing, covers what happens to the Data at each stage.

The judiciary in UG has consistently failed to strike a balance between the principle of open justice and anonymity of the parties in a dispute.
This was a family matter and vital information; names, National ID, Tel and Date of birth were all disclosed!!.
Employers must take the principle of data minimization into account when deciding on the deployment of new technologies

The way KCCA fellows arrest street vendors, one could easily mistake it for the apprehension of a serious criminal. Their actions reflect a gross abuse of power.

We should all be concerned about the way technology is affecting our democracy, belive it or not.
AI can be used to breach Privacy laws in the following ways;
Predictive Profiling
Data Interference.
Erosion of consent
Ubiquitous surveillance
Biometric Identification and Surveillance
Decision Making Based on Private Data
Deepfakes and synthetic Media

The recently passed computer law lacks Precision and clarity.
In the criminal justice system the definition of a criminal offence is essential, if a person accused of the offence is to have a fair trial.
