問責
2.0
是甚麼?我認為由過去所說的「私隱影響評估」過渡至「資訊影響評估」可能是
思考這問題的另一方法。我們絕對需要重新思索個人的參與。個人在適當時作出有意義
的同意及控制,非常重要。我們要思索新的減輕風險方法。最後,企業必須顯示能力,
付諸實行。
What may accountability 2.0 look like? I think moving from what we used to call
“privacy impact assessment” to “information impact assessment” may be another way
to think about it. We absolutely need to rethink individual participation. It is super
important that individuals do have meaningful consent and meaningful control where
appropriate. We have to think about new approaches to risk mitigation. And finally, we
businesses have to demonstrate capability, to be able to do this.
我們在保障私隱資料上可以採取下述步驟,做得更好:
首先,我們不應太集中於個人同意方面,應聚焦於資料管理責任及資料使用者在理應可
預知的傷害下所承擔的責任。第二,我們需要採用更具系統化及完善的風險管理。第
三,應更注重大數據會如何被使用,而不是資料的收集或保留,或收集資料的原本目
的。第四,透過具透明度及包容性的過程,我們(包括規管者、業界及個人)應發展一
個可識別傷害的體系。第五,我們應更著重透明度及糾正方法。最後,在有意義及有
效的情況下,通知當事人和讓當事人得以選擇。
There are a number of steps that we can take to enhance our ability to do better (on
privacy data protection):
First of all, we should focus less on individual consent and more on placing
responsibility for data stewardship and liability for reasonably foreseeable harm on
data users. Second, we need to employ a more systemic and well-developed use of
risk management. Third, we need to place greater focus on the uses of big data as
opposed to the mere collection or retention of data or the purpose for which data were
originally collected. Fourth, we need to develop a broad framework of cognisable
harms, identified through a transparent, inclusive process, including regulators,
industries and individuals. Fifth, we should pay more attention to transparency and
redress. And finally, we should reserve notice and choice for where it is meaningful
and effective.
