Stephen explains the push for more data sharing and to establish user-centric business models that deliver value for businesses and benefits for individuals. We discuss emerging tools that assure the orderliness, fairness, and transparency of information value chains and why Stephen aims to take data processing "out of the shadows" with his research.
Lastly, we discuss key Facebook & Google EU court cases that addresses collection & use of facial biometrics from people without sufficient consent and the challenges that Google and search engines have with addressing "the right to be forgotten." Plus, we discuss the privacy expectations within the ‘digital town square,’ particularly through the lens of Twitter and Facebook.
