@TheSecretPubli2 @JMPSimor @Meta @Meta is trying to be honest and transparent about what they intend to do and individuals can always complain to the regulator if they think their rights are being disregarded. But organisations also have rights, (And yes, it’s a matter of balance, blah blah blah)

Yeah it’s Friday!
And having had the second cataract op yesterday I am astounded by the clarity of sight I now have after 40 years of wearing glasses. I no longer have to wear glasses!

@PrivacyMatters @hawktalk_blog And I don’t think any institutions are interested in archiving this stuff either.

@PrivacyMatters @hawktalk_blog Chuck it out. The guidance was helpful when people knew it existed, but the ICO did in the past have an unfortunate habit of tweaking some text without telling anyone.

@IGrobrien I’m honoured to know that others appreciate my thoughts.

@LynnFOI @dmuleicester It’s great to be able to live at a pace of one’s own choosing. And being able to focus what really interests you, rather than what other people expect of you.

Am looking forward to retiring and not getting abuse for just doing my job. It’s getting worse. Valuable research here from @dmuleicester

As the issue of compensation for miscarriages of justice is rightly in the news, it’s timely to note that in 2014, the government changed the law to make it all but impossible for people wrongly convicted and imprisoned to claim compensation.

Two gongs for @ICOnews in this years honours list - a first for the organisation. Well done to Paul and Nicky.

Given the way your husband was so shabbily treated by the British spooks, I hope you have more success in obtaining an appropriate security clearance from the Australian intelligence agencies.

Delighted to share that I've been appointed as the new Australian Privacy Commissioner. I'll be farewelling London for a while and relocating to Sydney to take up the role in February 2024.

The lack of time offered to stakeholders and parliamentarians to consider the proposals indicate an astonishing level of contempt for the traditional consultative process.
Chris Pounder@hawktalk_blog
For instance a new lawful basis of "processing necessary for ... responding to a request made in accordance with the Agreement [with the Trump administration] for Access to Electronic Data for the Purpose of Countering Serious Crime"). @ICOnews silence is also unacceptable.

Let’s wait until the details are published rather than rush to condem such proposals.

👑The #KingsSpeech revealed plans to add yet more spying powers to the Snoopers' Charter. "The Government says it will give them the power to veto private tech companies' privacy and security features. Such powers would be more extreme than even the world's most despotic regimes. This would be yet another Bill that would exert extraordinary control to treat private companies as extensions of the state in order to conduct mass surveillance of millions of law-abiding citizens. It would be a major blow to the population's security." - Silkie Carlo, Director, Big Brother Watch

@Ofcom will encounter enormous problems ensuring a reasonable level of compliance as most impacted orgs are unlikely to read an Act that is 288 pages long. Nor will most orgs want / be able to buy legal advice from the few lawyers who have read it & know what it actually means.
