“…The FTC had to take action once more for ChoicePoint's failure to protect consumers' personal data. 30 Borrowing from David Flaherty [2] it should be acknowledged at this juncture that Bany sentient being,^having even a minimal concern regarding the Privacy of his/her information, should not consider Information Brokers/Brokerages or, contemporary repositories of information -to be BProtected Stores^3 1 for their personal information. The second to the last converging point, to note in this regard, is that Credit Bureaus are equally vulnerable.…”

“…Flaherty said that B[t]here is no sentient human being in the Western world who has little or no regard for his or her personal privacy; 1 those who would attempt such claims cannot withstand even a few minutes' questioning about intimate aspects of their lives without capitulating to the intrusiveness of certain subject matters.^ [2] , One could discern from the aforementioned statement that it is entirely plausible and possible for any perceptive being to sense the importance of Privacy, without knowing what it really is. We are now residents of a world, and a time, where the cliché, Bignorance is bliss,^ [3] has gone on to glowingly qualify the common state of human apathy, reaching a low point nowwhere it is hard to imagine anyone but Thomas Gray as having a mountain of disdain for this plunderous adaptation of his words in the mainstream.…”

On protecting & preserving personal privacy in interoperable global healthcare venues

Worldwide, Information Technology (IT) use in healthcare systems is rapidly increasing for the purposes of realizing higher quality, and reducing overall costs. This escalation in healthcare IT use is simultaneously fueling a brisk rise in institutional demands for more Information. Associatedly, with IT proliferation and the escalation of informational demands within healthcare Systems, is an ever-present loss risk of Patient's Privacy. Therefore, all efforts undertaken to protect Privacy must effectively identify conceivable threat trajectories -against which -pathways to assure protections need exist, and to which, knowledge and resources must be mustered in a timely manner. More fundamentally, however, to identify, prevent, and safeguard against encroachments upon Privacy in healthcare, there is a need for an a priori comprehension by all in healthcare that nothing can be protected adequately if the value of that which is to be protected, and/or the consequences related to the loss -are not well understood. Yet, that which is eminently clear is, in the field of healthcare, many Medical Staff have neither the understanding, an appreciation for the importance, nor the worth of Privacy of those Patients in their care. Even with the threat of official/ legal action looming, Privacy violations and compromises of Protected Health Information (PHI) by Medical Staff occur routinely. How could Medical Staff make perverse errors in judgement regarding PatientBs Privacy so often? The aim of this article is to provide a reasonable familiarization to fundamental activities and correlated behaviors that compel risks, which are responsible for Information and Privacy Compromises. Furthermore, by way of such familiarization, necessary actions to be undertakento prevent the loss of Personal Privacy in Interoperable global healthcare venues can be suitably employed.

“…Privacy is an integral part of democratic society and Flaherty argues that it is fundamental to human existence (Westin, 1967;Flaherty, 1999). Yet Nock (1998) has highlighted the risks of too much privacy and the importance of scrutiny over privacy in order to maintain social order.…”

The nation’s data? The UK census – guaranteed confidentiality but only limited information

English In the UK, the census is one of the key resources for policy makers, determining planning and resource allocation at both the national and local level. Recent disputes between the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and a number of local authorities concerning the accuracy of the 2001 Census population counts have highlighted the importance of the census in funding allocation terms. Drawing on research into the 1991 and 2001 Census programmes and discussions with census users and commercial data providers, this article explores the complex relationship between the needs of policy makers and researchers and the issues of data access and confidentiality. The analysis is placed within the wider context of ongoing developments in both the public and commercial sectors with respect to data collection, storage and data release in and outside the UK. While consultation on the 2011 Census is ongoing, we argue that, in the context of the increasing demands for accurate data to inform evidence-based policy making and service provision, there is a pressing need for a more radical review of the current approaches to census content and census data access in the UK.

“…4 CCTV has been one of the technologies that data protection commissioners have taken into account in their publications (e.g. : Flaherty, 1999;Registratiekamer, 2001;Homburg and Dekkers, 2003). In some cases, the privacy rules laid down in data protection legislation that have been applied to camera surveillance systems have been supplemented by guidelines and codes of conduct developed by national data protection authorities (e.g.…”

Protecting Personal Data in Camera Surveillance Practices

This paper explores in which ways privacy (in particular, data protection principles) comes to the fore in the day-to-day operation of a public video surveillance system. Starting from current European legal perspectives on data protection, and building on an empirical case study, the meanings and management of privacy in the practice of Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) will be discussed in order to identify the ways in which data protection is addressed in the operation of a video surveillance system. The case study suggests that views expressed by actors involved in the use of CCTV and the organisational and technical measures that have been employed, are related to a number of data protection issues, in particular principles regarding data quality. In addition, the case shows that while regulations (consisting in particular of organisational procedures) pertaining to the permissibility of data processing can be discerned in the practice of centralised CCTV, few indications exist that mechanisms taking into account data subjects' rights were established. Therefore, the system of video surveillance discussed in this paper suggests that different elements of data protection feature in different ways in the context of CCTV. This finding gives clues as to future research on privacy and camera surveillance.
