Bridging the Gap: We Need to Get Together

Daniel Guagnin, Leon Hempel and Carla Ilten

Chapter 5 in Managing Privacy through Accountability, 2012, pp 102-124 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The history of data protection could be narrated as a history of publicly celebrated data breaches. Recent years have seen massive leakages at many large companies, and scares about new invasive products and services. Google, Apple, and Facebook have become icons of an ‘information technology revolution’ and the ‘end of privacy’ at the same time. Other companies have been found to spy on their workforce, and states extend their surveillance systems in all secrecy.
