It was #DataProtectionDay yesterday. As always, I'm reminded of the 1973 HEW report 'Records, Computers & the Rights of Citizens' & what could have been for data protection in the US.

For me, as a data protection professional, it's an important doc

I see #DataProtectionDay commentary such as ‘data protection and privacy rights’ or ‘data privacy’ (data doesn’t have privacy - people do. Just as they have a broad range of human rights that may be impacted by the use of data about them)

How about ‘data protection and human rights’.

Here’s a @coe course on data protection and human rights https://help.elearning.ext.coe.int/enrol/index.php?id=1075

Choose tools to block tracking both in browsers & apps where possible. Become familiar with the privacy settings of apps & yr devices
