Not really, you just need to incentivise the behaviour. Pass a law to make it illegal to show ads based on tracking, with executive imprisonment for violations.

Not really, you just need to incentivise the behaviour. Pass a law to make it illegal to show ads based on tracking, with executive imprisonment for violations. Executives will then demand their teams to put controls in place to ensure that no one is using tracking to show ads. Violations of HIPAA have some serious fines, and I've watched executives at all levels take it VERY seriously
- mixmastamyk 7y agoRich executives and therefore the media tend to push back on such limits. And they tend to be more equal than the rest of us.
- dragonsh 7y agoWouldn't this executive and Media companies will run afoul of the GDPR act. At least in EU they can be fined and may be prosecuted if they are repeat offenders. It will be nice if all the EU residents in one go send a request to remove their information from all the US based media and technology giants who under the guise of changing the world are indeed working to sale more to consumers and make themselves rich.
- sizzle 7y agoAwesome idea, HIPAA for protection against the advertising industry and their digital intrusion/violation/surveillance of our privacy. Something like APPAA - Advertising Privacy Protection and Accountability Act What would you guys call it? what language is necessary to cover all the edge cases for the deceptive and dirty-playing advertising industry?
