我認為在這數碼年代，企業的責任是提高問責性。問責還包括其他元素，例如透明
度，這是機構的責任；但亦要有個人的問責及控制。合乎道德的決策亦是未來數碼世代
企業責任的主要一環。
Regarding corporate digital responsibility, this is how I see enhancing accountability.
Apart from those elements of accountability that we all understand so far, there are
some other elements, such as transparency, we have to focus on. There has to be the
organisational responsibility to be transparent, but it must also allow accountability
and control by individuals. Ethical decision making is also part of the next generation
of corporate digital responsibility.
現時，私隱風險有兩個具爭議性的議題：
第一，保安。數據愈龐大，大數據愈多，保安威脅亦愈多。如你不能保護這些數據，
便不應收集，甚至儲存。
第二，政府監視。數據愈龐大和集中，愈多政府為其各自的目的，嘗試進行群眾監視。
為解決這些問題，
正專注處理三項事宜。第一是令過程更具透明度。我們發表
透明度報告，這可能是業界破天荒的做法，現已成為業界廣泛採用的最佳行事方式。第
二是我們把更多的服務加密。因此，如政府想要資料，必須堂堂正正向我們提出。第
三是我們正與業界合作，進行有關監察法律的改革。
At present, there are two big controversial topics on privacy risks:
First, security. The bigger data gets, the more big data that is out there, the greater the
security threats become. If you can’t protect your data, you should not be collecting or
even storing it.
Second, government surveillance. The bigger and more centralised data becomes,
the more governments, for their own purposes, are tempted to engage in mass
surveillance.
There are three things that Google has been focusing on to address these issues. The
first is to bring more transparency to the process. We publish a transparency report,
which was probably the first in the industry, and now has become a best practice
guide widely used across the industry. The second is that we are encrypting more and
more of our services. So if governments want data, they have to come to the front door
and ask for it. And the third thing is that we are working with others in the industry on
surveillance law reform.
