[MyData & Open Data] distinctions between personal and open

[Mark Elliot]

Hi Stef,

So you really do not make a distinction between publishing full tax records on the internet with full identifiers and a set of univariate aggregate tables held in side safe data lab that only one person sees?

Ohm, in short, is wrong because he fails to model the context.

Best,
Mark

hmm, all anonymization is "bad".

either it's anonymous, or useful. you can't have both, this is the result of ohm's paper.
