[MyData & Open Data] Open Data for Privacy

[Reuben Binns]

I recently delivered a short presentation on 'Open Data for Privacy' at the
Open Rights Group conference ( http://orgcon.openrightsgroup.org/ ). The
gist of my talk is that even though open data is sometimes in tension with
privacy, it can also help address privacy problems. In so far as the
problem with personal data collection and use is that it is opaque, open
data about data controllers can help make it more visible and provide input
for accountability measures.

The slides for the talk are here

Anyone interested in collaborating on projects in this general vein, please
do get in touch.
