Ingmar bladert en schrijft: Social Network's Users Bill of Rights

In het verlengde van mijn bericht van vanmorgen ligt de "Social Networks Bill of Rights" waar tijdens SXSW over gesproken is. Deze 'wet' omvat veertien artikelen:

We the users expect social network sites to provide us the following rights in their Terms of Service, Privacy Policies, and implementations of their system:

Honesty: Honor your privacy policy and terms of service

Clarity: Make sure that policies, terms of service, and settings are easy to find and understand

Freedom of speech: Do not delete or modify my data without a clear policy and justification

Empowerment : Support assistive technologies and universal accessibility

Self-protection: Support privacy-enhancing technologies

Data minimization: Minimize the information I am required to provide and share with others

Control: Let me control my data, and don’t facilitate sharing it unless I agree first

Predictability: Obtain my prior consent before significantly changing who can see my data.

Data portability: Make it easy for me to obtain a copy of my data

Protection: Treat my data as securely as your own confidential data unless I choose to share it, and notify me if it is compromised

Right to know: Show me how you are using my data and allow me to see who and what has access to it.

Right to self-define: Let me create more than one identity and use pseudonyms. Do not link them without my permission.

Right to appeal: Allow me to appeal punitive actions

Right to withdraw: Allow me to delete my account, and remove my data
