We should just have full data-autonomy enshrined in law. This starts that path.

- 0xbadcafebee 2y agoThere's really no way to allow companies to have your data when they need it, and also not lose it. Even if they don't sell our data, they can just get hacked, our info gets leaked, and now everybody has it anyway. Data security should come first, then data privacy, then data autonomy. HIPAA was basically created to do this (require your consent to receive your information, then require your consent to transmit or share it, within reason) but lack of data security means our private medical data still gets leaked. So I agree we absolutely need all personal data to be treated like HIPAA (at minimum) but it's kind of pointless without improved security requirements.
