ABSTRACT
The Trusted Workforce 2.0 (TW2.0) initiative revamping the personnel security program made strides to implement the process of continuous evaluation (CE). CE isn't a new concept, though, but why did it take so long to implement? I argue TW2.0 built on previous momentum of evolutionary change to capitalize on a moment of punctuated equilibrium while utilizing best practices of designing for new technology. This paper will help to explain why rioters at the US Capitol with security clearances may stay in positions of authority, and it will also raise questions of what policies are needed for clearance reform in the future.

Wearables produce a body of data controlled by the user of the wearable, and the institution creating the device or collecting the device information, and community members engaging with the devices. This article examines the privacy policies of the top five wearable vendors of 2016 to analyze how corporations describe the bodies of digital data they amass through surveillant assemblage. Results indicate four points of agency which surround bodies of digital information: data as alter ego, data under personal control, institutional power, and community. Although scholarship often emphasizes that entities of power control information, and wearable companies emphasize the user's ability to control their information, there are multiple ways the authors can think about the data, and not addressing the complexity of data can lead to limited ideas about agency, identity, surveillance, and visibility.
