Re: [projectvrm] Microsoft's default DNT setting in IE10

[Luk Vervenne < >]

soon - at least in Europe - businesses will have to oblige.

as a consequence services will pop up that do that chore for you.

Next is (as in our TAS3 sticky policies for every transaction):  you will be able to enforce this on a transaciton level.

If companies don't comply and they are caught, ... the ifines range from 250.000 to 1M euro up to 2% of anual return of their GLOBAL business.

No longer worth your while. 

The effect will be that companies will shift and seek new (enforced ehtical) ways to get in touch with (potential) customers

Then the focus will shift (rapidly I think) on how to get business efficiency in the personal data ecosystems.

May I also remark that it is two ladies that are forcing this change at the EC: Neelie Kroes and Viviane Reding

A third lady previsouly invented/promoted/enforced Privacy by Design (Cavoukian in Canada)

This is now ALSO a mandatory criterium in the new EC regulaiton. (as is a PIA, privacy impact assessment) 

Maybe this says something about our 'manly' powerplay ways. (we do it because we can) :-)

cheers,

If this could go hand in hand with doing business more effective and more efficient, then the individual finally might become the accepted ethical integration point of personal data. 

We just have to go tough & painfull global market transition. :-)

That is a big if....  

For instance if I delete my facebook account, I just disappear from my friends lists, there is no message saying I am no longer an account holder, no tool for me to take my data, no provisions for the control of the information that I have given.

These types of tools dont make Facebook money.  So  I have to manually go from service provider to provider to try and get data deleted with no verifiable way to prove that it is deleted. (that is if they agree to delete the data at all)

BTW 

This is something I am currently doing at the moment, going from provider to provider asking them to delete, unpublish or at least hide information about me on the Internet that I never intended to be aggregated and published.  Very time consuming and annoying.
