Yeah, that's exactly the problem - the clash of privacy and ownership laws that are basically contradicting each other at the moment; data can be owned, but not really, but really...!?!?
GDPR made it even more unclear.
- detaro 8y agoFor other types of data, copyright breaks that model too, and other immaterial and material possessions come with various legal restrictions too. Ownership hasn't universally meant "can do what I like with it" for a long time, so maybe thinking purely about ownership isn't a very useful model if you want to know what you can do.
- TomMarius 8y agoCopyright doesn't break anything, it extends the ownership framework. I don't agree with it, but it's clear enough. GDPR and other privacy laws introduce a completely new contradicting concept.
