Government Data of the People, by the People, for the People: Navigating Citizen Privacy Concerns
讨论了政府数据开放与公民隐私保护之间的根本权衡,指出确定适当平衡点的困难,并思考如何塑造数据隐私的未来、参与政策辩论并确保数据中人的负责任呈现。
The data privacy community generally agrees that government data should be more widely accessible, especially being of the people (data collected about them), by the people (collected and supported using taxpayer dollars), and for the people (providing public and social good). But what to protect in that data and how to do so are highly and intensely debated. This paper discusses the fundamental tradeoff between data privacy and data usefulness—and how determining an appropriate balance can be difficult. The paper also provides thoughts on what must be addressed to help shape the future of data privacy, make meaningful contributions to its policy debates, and ensure the responsible representation of people in data.
