Digital Data Collection and Information Privacy Law – eBook

Description

In Digital Data Collection and Information Privacy Law (PDF), Mark Burdon presents a compelling argument for the urgent need to reevaluate and reformulate our information privacy laws in response to the unprecedented power dynamics created by ubiquitous data collection. This insightful book delves into the emerging business models that rely heavily on sensor data, placing particular emphasis on the ‘smart home’ phenomenon. Burdon meticulously examines the mounting challenges confronting the traditional control-model of information privacy and its applicability in offering principled safeguards for personal data exchange.

With a keen focus on redefining the role of information privacy, Burdon posits that individual control should serve as a disruptive force against the prevailing modulated power structures. His proposals lay the groundwork for essential legal reforms, advocating for more robust protections surrounding information privacy. This ebook is a must-read for scholars, practitioners, and anyone passionate about understanding the intricacies of privacy in our increasingly data-driven society.
