Brokering Safety is really good. I'm grateful that I could get a chance to engage it so closely. Thanks @thomaskadri.bsky.social @chinmayisharma.bsky.social & @samadler.bsky.social for writing it.

Honored and a little starstruck by three essays just published in the California Law Review (@califlrev.bsky.social), responding to “Brokering Safety” (my recent article with @chinmayisharma.bsky.social & @samadler.bsky.social). papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Headline-generating artificial intelligence (AI) hallucinations in the legal industry have some questioning whether carriers who insure lawyers may be looking to change future liability policies. Fordham Law Professor Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) spoke with Law.com about the matter.

A forthcoming law review article written by Fordham Law Prof. Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) & Sam Adler '26 (@samadler.bsky.social) was cited by the BC General Employees' Union. Read the proposal: https://investors.thomsonreuters.com/static-files/d347f0e8-ac45-4955-9efb-72d5572da769

@chinmayisharma.bsky.social , @thomaskadri.bsky.social, and @samadler.bsky.social propose a new system of regulating data brokers when it comes to their impacts on victims of abuse and stalking.

The Center for AI and Digital Policy (CAIDP) has welcomed 12 new members to the Global Academic Network—including Fordham Law Professor Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social). These members are leading experts in AI law and policy & will provide advice to CAIDP across its program activities.

Huge thanks to everyone who has reached out so far about the state court access map! I'm hoping to work through updates later today. Got an idea for another tool or data visualization of some kind that you wish existed? DM me or email tylermcbrien [at] protonmail [dot] to get in touch.

Fordham Law Professor Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) sits down with Lawfare (@lawfaremedia.org) Managing Editor Tyler McBrien (@tylermcbrien.com) to discuss her forthcoming law review article and the U.S. federal government’s privatized and automated system of immigration enforcement.

Fordham Law Prof. Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) discusses her new Article, "Immigration Enforcement Intermediaries" (co-authored with student Sam Adler '26 JD, @samadler.bsky.social), with Tech Policy Press (@techpolicypress.bsky.social)'s Justin Hendrix (@justinhendrix.bsky.social).

As adoption of AI becomes more widespread, Cullen O'Keefe, @alanrozenshtein.com, and Christopher Winter explore the risks to the rule of law from the use of frontier AI in the executive branch and to ensure any ExecAI safeguards foundational rights and liberties.

This is a great convo w/ @chinmayisharma.bsky.social about how DHS’s vendor-mediated surveillance infrastructure threatens civil liberties and democratic accountability. Check out her insightful paper with @samadler.bsky.social for more, incl. how states can counter harms: ssrn.com/abstract=634...

A huge thanks to @chinmayisharma.bsky.social for joining me on the @lawfaremedia.org podcast to talk about both the dangers of a privatized, automated immigration system and the ways states can counteract these harms to immigrants, society, and the rule of law itself. Listen below 🔽

@bcgeu.bsky.social is doing incredible work holding data broker @thomasreuters.bsky.social accountable for their role in immigration enforcement - selling the government hordes of sensitive personal data - through shareholder proposals calling for human rights assessments. Honored to be cited.

Loved chatting with @tylermcbrien.com on the @lawfaremedia.org Daily podcast about my new paper with @samadler.bsky.social: Immigration Enforcement Intermediaries. It is hard to overstate the very real harms of the multi-headed Hydra of private tech’s immigration enforcement stack. Listen in!

So excited that Brokering Safety is finally out in the California Law Review! It was such a joy to write this piece with Thomas and Sam, however disturbing the underlying phenomenon we tackle: the abuse enabled by data brokers and the need for a centralized system to empower victims to opt out.

I wrote about RightsCon's cancellation after Zambia's government announced it would postpone the event to sort out its concerns over "thematic issues." With thousands about to depart (or already en route) to Lusaka, it's a huge blow to the digital and human rights field.

Delighted that @bcgeu.bsky.social cited to my and @chinmayisharma.bsky.social’s forthcoming article, Immigration Enforcement Intermediaries, in their shareholder proposal demanding Thomson Reuters investigate their DHS & ICE contracts! You can find the article here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

New in the 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘓𝘢𝘸 𝘙𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸 from Chinmayi Sharma, Sam Adler & me: 𝘉𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘚𝘢𝘧𝘦𝘵𝘺 explores privacy law’s complicity in how data brokers exacerbate abuse & harassment. Such a pleasure working with @chinmayisharma.bsky.social, @samadler.bsky.social & the terrific team at @califlrev.bsky.social!

Fordham Law Prof. Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social)—whose research focuses on cyber & AI—tells Bloomberg Law (@bloomberglaw.com) that AI’s potential to spot gaps in software would still leave cyber teams with the same weaknesses and challenges they’ve been facing for the last few years.

“Immigration Enforcement Intermediaries” is forthcoming in the BYU Law Review! @chinmayisharma.bsky.social and I describe how the rise of a vendor-mediated enforcement apparatus disrupts immigration federalism and circumvents democratic accountability. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Honored and excited to have joined @justinhendrix.bsky.social’s podcast for @techpolicypress.bsky.social to discuss my new paper with @samadler.bsky.social about the way the new privatized automated immigration apparatus threatens core rule of law values and sidelines the democratic process.

So excited that my article with @samadler.bsky.social will be published in the BYU Law Review! It takes apart the privatized, automated architecture of the new immigration enforcement regime and gives an unvarnished critique of how it erodes federalism, democratic oversight, and civil liberties.

1/ As the US continues AI-enabled strikes on Iran, new @brennancenter.org research from @emileayoub.bsky.social and me examines how the military’s investments in the technology have been building to this moment. Congress must step up and reckon with AI’s dangers to life, liberty, and democracy 🧵:

Incredibly thorough report about an incredibly important, and profoundly concerning, set of developments today.

Fordham Law Prof. Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) & student Sam Adler '26 JD (@samadler.bsky.social) explore private tech vendors & immigration federalism, in their new article published on @ssrn.bsky.social, "The Enforcement Triangle: How Automation Rewired Immigration Governance." 📝:

Given that "open-source" AI is about to become a lot more important going forward, here's something that may be of interest to AI law and policy folks (with @chinmayisharma.bsky.social and @ptnobel.bsky.social ). papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Excellent & empathetic reporting by @iododds.bsky.social in @the-independent.com about data brokers & interpersonal abuse, with smart quotes from @samadler.bsky.social & mentions of our forthcoming @califlrev.bsky.social article w/ @chinmayisharma.bsky.social. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Proud to play a role in helping get this together for @justsecurity.org. It provides you with details from the sworn declarations filed in support of the ACLU's lawsuit in Minnesota, Hussen v. Noem. The details of abuses by federal agents across the 29 declarations we looked at are chilling.

The debate over openness in artificial intelligence (AI) is the topic of a forthcoming article, “Unbundling AI Openness”, in the Wisconsin Law Review, co-authored by Minnesota Law professor @alanrozenshtein.com, with colleagues @ptnobel.bsky.social, and @chinmayisharma.bsky.social. z.umn.edu/awsx

At the Citizens and Technology Lab October 2025 Summit on New York State Technology Policy, Fordham Law Prof. Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) argued that the media plays a key role in “identifying emerging trends [in data] and broadcasting them in a digestible way for those affected.”

Fordham Law students are gaining hands-on artificial intelligence training by learning how generative AI can mislead or oversimplify legal reasoning—an issue that Professor Chinmayi Sharma (@chinmayisharma.bsky.social) says "underscores the need for responsible AI use." via Reuters (@reuters.com)

@alanrozenshtein.com and co-authors @ptnobel.bsky.social (Ph.D. candidate, Stanford University) and Prof. @chinmayisharma.bsky.social (Fordham School of Law) have published an article on @ssrn.bsky.social, "Unbundling AI Openness," forthcoming in Wisconsin Law Review (2026). z.umn.edu/AIOpeness

Excited to share a draft of my Note—AI Procurement as Regulatory Reconnaissance—forthcoming in the Fordham Law Review. Inspired by @cary-coglianese.bsky.social, I contend that federal procurement offers a compelling information-forcing tool to inform AI regulation. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Thrilled to share that Unbundling AI Openness, my article with @alanrozenshtein.com and Parth Nobel is forthcoming in Wisconsin Law Review! It introduces a framework of "differential openness" to correct the oversimplification of AI as either "open vs. closed." papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Excited to share a @lawfaremedia.org piece with @thomaskadri.bsky.social and @samadler.bsky.social that builds off our article Brokering Safety, forthcoming in @califlrev.bsky.social, that calls for an overdue conversation about how much we privilege data broker profits over human safety.

I am so damn excited to share my new book, Law and Technology: A Methodical Approach. Full of stories and priced at $40, this book explains why law finds technology so difficult to regulate, and what to do about it. global.oup.com/academic/pro...

23andMe didn’t own your DNA—it was bailed to them. In Bailing Out Biometrics (forthcoming, J. Tort Law), Elijah Gordon & I argue that biometric data deserves bailment protection. Allowing its breach and then selling it in bankruptcy, isn’t just wrong—it’s illegal. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Enjoying a fascinating discussion on the role of technology in backsliding democracy @fordhamlawnyc.bsky.social ft. @orlylobel.bsky.social @josephcox.bsky.social Aziz Huq, James Grimmelmann, Quinta Jurecic & others! Organized by @oliviersylvain.bsky.social & @chinmayisharma.bsky.social 🔥

Thank you @thomaskadri.bsky.social for pairing scholarship with action. Drawing on our article with @chinmayisharma.bsky.social (Brokering Safety), Thomas testified in support of MA’s Location Shield Act and emphasized its importance in mitigating abuse survivors’ privacy self-management burden.

Wow who could’ve guessed that this would happen It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world It’s almost as if it was entirely predictable that America’s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAID’s destruction

My Article, “AI’s Hippocratic Oath,” has just been published by the Wash. U. L. Rev. It argues that AI engineers should be subject to the same level of responsibility we expect of any other profession. It’s time we demand that AI’s architects do no harm. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Sharma, Kadri, & Adler on Data Brokers and Safety for Abuse Victims, buff.ly/E4hgZG3 - Chinmayi Sharma (Fordham Law), Thomas Kadri (University of Georgia School of Law), & Sam Adler (Fordham Law) have posted Brokering Safety (114 Calif. L. Rev. (2026)) on SSRN.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Musk’s loyalists at DOGE have infiltrated dozens of federal agencies, pushed out tens of thousands of workers, and siphoned millions of people’s most sensitive data. The next step: Unleash the AI.

“Brokering Safety” is forthcoming in Calif. L. Rev.! With @chinmayisharma.bsky.social & @samadler.bsky.social, we expose privacy law's complicity in how data brokers worsen stalking & IPV, then pitch a system for victims to obscure data across all brokers in one go. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
