HomePrivacy and trust in the ubiquitous information society
Analysis of the impact of convergent and pervasive ICT on privacy and data protection and needs and options for development of the legal framework : final study report
Metadaten zur Veröffentlichung
It is perhaps stating the obvious to say that new and emerging technologies, especially those that are leading us towards the ubiquitous Information Society, present fundamental challenges to notions of privacy and trust, however these are defined and whoever might hold such notions. These developments require policy-makers, industry and other stakeholders to assess existing policies and safeguards and, if necessary, build in new ones that will better protect the privacy and preserve the trust of citizens. This is not to say that curbs or restrictions need to be placed on the technologies or their further development. Society's attention should rather be on how those technologies are used, to which needs and prospects they respond, who uses them and for what purpose. This study is to provide information helping to develop and assess policy options at EU level addressing existing and new challenges to effective data protection, privacy and trust resulting from the emergence of the ubiquitous Information Society. Moreover, it aims to provide input for the development of a set of EU level measures responding to the challenges, based on an assessment of available instruments to achieve the maximum potential benefits. It identifies various specific challenges to privacy and trust in the ubiquitous Information Society that are resulting from technological developments and from new privacy-infringing business-models and administrative practice. It explores how well the existing legal framework is prepared for the future. Consequently, the report is organised in two main parts: The first deals with the identification and analysis of challenges and the second with possible policy responses.
