TV’s Catwoman will look quite different in Gotham‘s series finale.

Camren Bicondova, who has been with the Batman prequel series since the 2014 pilot, has confirmed that last Thursday’s penultimate episode marked her final appearance as Selina Kyle. She will be succeeded in the April 25 swan song by Banshee vet Lili Simmons, following a 10-year time jump.

“It’s important to me that I’m the one to tell you this because it was a choice that I made,” Bicondova wrote on Twitter. “I wanted to give (the character) Selina Kyle as much respect as possible. Some will say that giving her respect would include seeing the character through to the end of the show, which I understand. But, I firmly believe that part of leaving a legacy and being part of a legacy means knowing when to pass the torch to someone else. I was blessed to be the vessel for Selina Kyle for her formative teen years, and it only felt right to give someone else the torch for her adult self.

“The woman who will be playing the older Selina Kyle is the glorious Lili Simmons, who, when I met for the first time, made me cry tears of joy,” her statement continued. “She is perfect for this role, and she really wanted to do Selina right. We spoke about Selina Kyle for hours; I shared journal entries and scenes that were prime examples of Selina’s characteristics, and she shared thoughts of backstory for the 10 years that the audience didn’t see. I want to clearly express how much thought and care went into this decision, as well as how much respect for the character and legacy of Selina Kyle there is within it. I was blessed to be the seventh female actor to play Selina Kyle, the first to play her in Gotham‘s adaptation — and now, there will be an eighth woman part of DC Comics’ Catwoman legacy. That makes me proud.”

As previously reported, Gotham‘s farewell (watch trailer here) will feature Bruce Wayne finally transforming into the Dark Knight. Set a decade into the future, “The Beginning…” finds Bruce set to return to Gotham for the opening of the new Wayne Tower, while “a series of crimes leads Gordon to believe Penguin and The Riddler are up to their old tricks,” according to the official logline. “When Bullock is framed for a murder, Gordon begins to piece together an even more sinister plot targeting the city, and a new figure emerges from the shadows to be the hero Gotham desperately needs.”

The TV host was revealed to earn between £220,000 and £229,999 for his roles on BBC Breakfast and Football Focus.

The 41-year-old is also set to front a new gameshow for the corporation, titled Chase The Case.

Walker said working for the BBC is “brilliant” but admitted having his salary released to the public was uncomfortable.

He said: “I totally understand the way that the BBC works and I can appreciate the pressure that they’re under, and the licence fee is under more scrutiny than it’s ever been under.

“I still think working for the BBC is brilliant and the BBC are a fantastic organisation, and they provide value for money. But I’d be lying if I told you it’s not awkward for people to know how much you earn.”

When the list of the BBC’s top earners was released in July, it emerged the top 10 was dominated by men, with Match Of The Day host Gary Lineker overtaking DJ Chris Evans at the top.

Former England international footballer Lineker takes home between £1.75 million and £1,759,999.

Walker’s breakfast show co-host, Louise Minchin, did not make the list, which only contains stars earning more than £150,000 in 2017/18.

Walker, 41, said he is paid the same as Minchin for the BBC Breakfast job and he only made the list because he has two jobs.

He said: “I do think it’s important to say as well that, I’m proud of the fact that we do have equal pay at BBC Breakfast, I’ve always earned the same amounts as Louise, whatever the various papers have said.

“The reason I’m higher up the [pay] list is because I’ve got two jobs. So I think that’s really important and that’s something which is important to me, it’s as important to me as it is to Louise and Naga [Munchetty, another BBC Breakfast host] and the others.

“There’s still work to be done across the BBC. But they are trying their best to address it, and you’re right to bring it up, because it is an important issue.”

Walker, a father of three, added he wanted his two daughters to, “grow up in a world where they’re valued for the work they put in in the same way that a man is. I think that’s important”.

• Chase The Case starts on BBC One from Monday, September 17.

  • Two experts analysed photographs of the pair over time.
  • They rarely show public affection, yet some small gestures suggest that they are still deeply committed to one another.
  • Her Majesty naturally takes the lead but the Duke is never far behind. 
  • They share a special touch.

 

It’s Queen Elizabeth II’s official birthday on Saturday, and Prince Philip’s real birthday on Sunday and despite their old age, the pair appear to still be touchingly committed to one another.

  • In an Instagram post, singer Seal accused Oprah Winfrey of being aware of Harvey Weinstein’s alleged sexual misconduct and “being part of the problem for decades.”
  • According to Seal, people think that Oprah is “the solution,” rather than the problem.
  • “Oh I forgot, that’s right…..you’d heard the rumours but you had no idea he was actually serially assaulting young stary-eyed actresses who in turn had no idea what they were getting into. My bad. #SanctimoniousHollywood,” Seal captioned the photo. 

In an Instagram post on Wednesday, Seal accused Oprah Winfrey of knowing about  Harvey Weinstein‘s predatory behavior towards young women “for decades” and doing nothing about it.

“Oh I forgot, that’s right…..you’d heard the rumours but you had no idea he was actually serially assaulting young stary-eyed actresses who in turn had no idea what they were getting into. My bad,” the singer said in the post, which accompanied a meme of Winfrey and Weinstein. “When you have been part of the problem for decades, but suddenly they all think you are the solution,” the meme says, over photos of the two at events, one with Winfrey kissing Weinstein’s cheek.

He concluded with the hashtag “#SanctimoniousHollywood.”

When the allegations of Weinstein’s history of sexual abuse and harassment came to light in late 2017, Winfrey posted on her Facebook, saying, “I’ve been processing the accounts of Harvey Weinstein‘s hideous behavior and haven’t been able to find the words to articulate the magnitude of the situation.”

At Sunday’s Golden Globes ceremony, Winfrey’s speech about female empowerment and the Time’s Up movement led many to call for her to run for president in 2020.

  • A Supreme Court case on an armed robby has the potential to shape the lives of Americans everywhere.
  • The case concerns whether police are able to track people’s location through their cell phones.
  • Laws on wiretapping warrants and privacy have often not advanced with the pace of technology.

A man named Timothy Carpenter planned and participated in several armed robberies at Radio Shack and T-Mobile stores in Michigan and Ohio between 2010 and 2012. He was caught, convicted and sentenced to 116 years in federal prison.

His appeal, which was heard by the U.S. Supreme Court on Nov. 29, will shape the life of every American for years to come – no matter which way it’s decided.

During its investigation of the robberies, the FBI got records not only of the phone calls made and received by Carpenter’s cellphone, but also its location over 127 days. The information clearly placed Carpenter’s phone nearby at the times and places of each of the robberies, providing strong circumstantial evidence against him.

But it also revealed other information unrelated to the investigation, such as which nights Carpenter slept at home and what church he prayed in on Sunday mornings. The FBI didn’t get a search warrant for that information; the agency just asked Carpenter’s cell service provider, MetroPCS, for the data.

Carpenter is appealing his conviction on the grounds that his Fourth Amendment right to be protected from an unreasonable search was violated because his cellphone location was tracked without a search warrant. If you have a cellphone, what the Supreme Court decides will affect you.

As part of providing their services, cellphone companies know where their users are. Mobile phones connect to nearby towers, which have separate antennas pointing different directions. Noting which antennas on which towers a particular phone connects to allows the phone company to triangulate a fairly precise location.

In addition, technological advances are allowing cell towers to serve smaller and smaller areas. That means connected users are in even more specific locations. The FCC actually requires phone companies to be able to locate most cellphones within 50 meters when they call 911, to be able to direct emergency responders to the correct location.

Keeping up with tech trends

It is in the public’s interest for police to be able to track, catch and convict criminals. But to protect innocent citizens from harassment, the Bill of Rights established a process requiring investigators to get a judge’s signoff before conducting most searches for evidence.

Early in the 20th century, courts thought phone wiretaps didn’t require a warrant as long as the physical wiretap equipment was placed outside a target’s home. Over time, the importance of the telephone as a communications medium and the rise of the internet led to the increased protections provided by the 1986 Stored Communications Act. That law clarified constitutional procedure for the telephone age.

Under the law, police need a warrant to tap a person’s phone and listen to all his conversations. Without a warrant, officers can see what numbers a phone called, what numbers called that phone and when and how long the conversations lasted – but cannot eavesdrop on what was said.

Those rules have not been updated for the age of the mobile phone. As a result, a legal principle called the “third party doctrine” applies in Carpenter’s case – and in dozens, if not hundreds, of others. It says that if a person gives someone else a piece of information, that knowledge is no longer considered private.

In practice, it seems straightforward: If you tell a friend what you did last night, you can’t later stop your friend from telling the police what you said. And in fact, the Supreme Court has held that your friend could wear a “wire” so that the police can listen in, without a warrant and without informing you.

The way this plays out regarding the location of a cellphone is the assumption that by carrying a cellphone – which communicates on its own with the phone company – you have effectively told the phone company where you are. Therefore, your location isn’t private, and the police can get that information from the cellphone company without a warrant, and without even telling you they’re tracking you. This assumption is what Carpenter’s appeal is challenging.

Cell phones and privacy

phoneScott Morgan/Reuters

I have been at the leading edge of data science for over 30 years. Based on my work on the ethics of data science, I believe the assumptions that were safe in 1986 – when almost nobody had cellphones and nearly all telephones were landlines serving fixed locations – are no longer reasonable.

Back then, the information a phone user revealed to a phone company was very limited. Today, people disclose their location all the time, for routine, law-abiding activities, by carrying around cellphones.

Cellphone companies can know not only whom you call and for how long you speak, but where you are when you make the call, where you go in between calls and much more. They can deduce even more information, such as individuals’ religious affiliations and any number of personal habits that might be better kept secret – including how often an employee uses the restroom during a workday.

It makes no practical sense to claim a person could protect the privacy of their location and movements by not carrying a cellphone: The social and economic burden that would impose on each person would be too high.

This threat to privacy goes well beyond mobile phones: Automated license plate readers on bridges, roadsides and even police cars can easily record the identity of every vehicle, confirming its presence at a specific location at a particular time. A privacy-conscious person might give up driving, and instead rely on walking and taking public transportation. Cameras on the streets, at bus stops and in transit vehicles – coupled with tremendous recent advances in face recognition technology – can still track every move you make.

Personal health devices collect a great deal of information about users to help them achieve fitness goals, and may even be useful to provide early diagnosis of diseases. But information from a pacemaker has already been used to charge an alleged arsonist, and a Fitbit helped solve a murder.

Companies that provide internet service can learn a great deal about their customers simply by observing what websites users connect to, even if they don’t read the contents of each web page or email message. As electronic personal assistants (like Siri and Alexa) and home devices (like Nest) become more common and used more heavily, they will soon learn even more intimate details about people’s lives.

Declining to provide information to these “third party” service providers would require people to opt out of normal life – which isn’t really a choice.

Companies and their users’ data

Snap MapSnap

Most Americans don’t want their mobile phone companies to just hand over to police the enormous amount of information cellphones can reveal – at least not without getting a warrant first. But Americans’ privacy problem goes much deeper. Most people also don’t want their mobile phone companies to sell these data to others.

Many companies may seek that information to try to persuade more customers to buy their products, but nefarious uses are also possible. A person could be blackmailed with a threat of publicizing their (completely lawful) secrets – such as a particular health condition, religious affiliation or sexual preference.

Today, the protection people get goes only as far as the fine print of each service’s privacy policy. When a company goes out of business, its creditors try to make money from its assets – including data collected from and about its users. That is why I have called for companies to take the Data Destruction Pledge, promising that all customer data will be destroyed if the company ceases operation.

The FBI found Timothy Carpenter because one of his accomplices told them about him. I believe the FBI could have obtained a search warrant to track Carpenter, if agents had applied for one. Instead, federal agents got cellphone location data not just for Carpenter, but for 15 other people, most of whom were not charged with any crime. One of them could be you, and you’d likely never know it.

The more people rely on external devices whose basic functions record and transmit important data about their lives, the more critical it becomes for everyone to have real protection for their private data stored on and communicated by these devices.

A lucky punter has won £575,000 ($ 750,000) from a £1 ($ 1.30) bet by correctly guessing the results of 12 English football matches – despite admitting that she knows nothing about the sport.

The 59-year-old unnamed woman from Kent, UK picked 11 underdogs in her improbable bet, which she placed purely so she would have more of an interest in games she watched with her football-mad son and husband, who both support English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur. 

She compensated for her lack of football knowledge by choosing the names of teams that she thought sounded appealing. Nevertheless, her outlandish wager came in by virtue of a 92nd-minute Bournemouth winner from Steve Cook against Newcastle.

Further help came in the form of a struggling Bolton team beating Norwich in the Championship, and Burnley defeating Southampton 1-0 away in the Premier League to net her a cool £574,278 ($ 751,672).

“This is the biggest win I have ever handled and all for just a quid,” said Carli Faulkner, shop manager of the William Hill store where the bet was placed, Sport Bible reported.
