The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) main goals is to ensure that all personal data is collected
Question:
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) main goals is to ensure that all personal data is collected in a secure and legal process, it helps protects and regulates various information that can be tied to data subjects such as addressing cookie data, location information, IP addresses etc. With proper consent, consumers are giving control over their personal data such as the right to access or remove their personal data. It also required companies to obtain clear consent before processing anyone's personal data and they have the right to know how a company handles privacy and protection standards. It is not only an ethical responsibility, but a legal requirement which can lead to being fined if not followed.
There are various requirements that directly related to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) such as communications and transparency, processing data for the purpose it was intended, accuracy, gathering and keeping the exact information that is needed, do not store personal information that no longer need, and only people responsible for processing the data should have access to it etc. The most significant difference in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the facts it sets a high bar when it comes to accessing privacy protection for its individuals within European Union member states, while data protection in United Stated supplies the tools and policies to restrict access to the data.
Consumers view the GDPR in a positive way due to the fact it gives them more control over their personal data; in the other hand, businesses view GDPR as the most challenge due to their stringent requirements for compliance because any non-compliance can result to being fined. As for the industry's perspective on the GDPR can vary since industries handle a larger amount of personal data such as the tech industry, healthcare, and finances etc., which can be more challenging and can cause a larger fine if not followed and for the industry who handles fewer personal data may not find it not as heavily affected. However, no industry should see GDPR compliance as something there to only avoid fines, it is about respecting consumer rights and building trust.
It would be nice to have a data privacy law for the entire world because it would address what is considered the most important data privacy risks and protect individuals' rights regardless of culture, politics, regulations, and laws.Unfortunately, it is not always the case since every nation has different politics, laws, and culture. Not all countries considered all personal information should be protected or let aloneconsider a right.
scenerio 2 : The general requirements under the GDPR include obtaining consent from users before collecting personal data, proper security of the user's personal information, legitimate reasoning for data collection, and only obtaining the data that is needed and nothing more. Some major impacts of this are heavy fines now in place in the EU for companies that fail to follow the guidelines. The fine can be up to tens of millions of pounds for failure to comply. These rules don't only apply to companies operating in the EU, but any country that is collecting the data from EU citizens. Another impact is that the people have more control over their personal data, and can object to their data being taken. In the US there is no national data protection plan. Some states, such as California, have enacted privacy protection laws to help their citizens be aware of data collection and potential security breaches, however there is no act that encompasses the whole of the US.
Do you think there should be one data privacy law for the entire world?
I don't think there should be one data privacy law for the whole world. There is too much variety between each country for one super set of rules to be enacted while best serving every country. Not to mention the difficulty involved in getting every country to agree on rules and regulations that they would actually follow. Ideally one law would be best, so as to avoid international differences, and have a global effort to better security, but it doesn't seem viable in today's world.
Based on the two scenerios above address whether you agree or disagree with your peer's opinion and whether there should be global data privacy legislation.
