Judges

We know you didn’t publicize your home address online, but you may have provided your address when you ordered pizza for delivery. That pizza place sold your information to data brokers and people-finder websites. Others who likely have sold your personal information to these brokers include your tax preparer, or anyone else that you’ve provided information to in return for a free loyalty program or service.

 If that makes you uncomfortable, you can do something about it. Join us in our upcoming webinar.

When a weapon is used in a crime, judges often impose stricter sentences. But amidst political turmoil, controversial legal decisions, and a general decrease in civility, information may now be the most harmful weapon. 

It was the jump seen around the world.

The recent terrorist attack against Israel and the Israeli response have triggered protests across America. After some of these protests ended in violence, arrests were made and trials for the accused are already underway. Judges will be assigned to determine the fates of protestors on both sides – in a conflict that has caused centuries of violence and bloodshed.

We believe every judge must have confidence in their personal security, and the safety of their families, as they work to deliver equal justice under the law. But new threats have emerged over the past decade that must be acknowledged, and addressed.

Our CEO, Ron Zayas, has written a whitepaper on this vital issue that offers potentially life-saving information for those who work in our criminal justice system.

Could ordering a pizza threaten your family's safety?

That’s the title of the latest installment of “Gavel Talks,” a podcast for judges produced by the American Bar Association. Host Richard Ginkowski interviewed our CEO, Ron Zayas, about how all of your private information gets collected, shared, and sold, and what you can do about it.

We believe every judge must have confidence in their personal security, and the safety of their families, as they work to deliver equal justice under the law. But new threats have emerged over the past decade that must be acknowledged, and addressed.

Ron Zayas, CEO of 360Civic and its IronWall360 privacy protection service, has written an article on this vital issue that has been published in the current edition of Court Review magazine.

More women are becoming judges these days, and that is a good thing. According to the National Association of Women Judges, more than one-third of all judges in America are now women, an increase from just 25% in 2008. And given the current administration’s prioritization on equity in hiring, that number should continue to rise.

The Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act has been signed into law. This is a cause for celebration for judges and their families, as well as privacy advocates who recognize the danger of having a person’s address and phone number easily accessible online.

360Civic today advocated for individuals to play a greater role in their own online privacy. Opting out of data collection as a critical first step in preventing unnecessary information gathering.

Having one’s home address, phone number and other personal data shared and sold can result in a multitude of problems, and is especially hazardous for such public servants as judges, social workers and police officers.
