Thesis

June 30, 2020 – 10:11 pm

I’ve just posted in my ‘other blog’ (just for my PhD stuff). Been reflecting today… One practical application of my privacy harm model is for making sense of “high risk to individuals’ interests” in carrying out data protection impact assessments or privacy impact assessments.

June 13, 2020 – 11:38 pm

At that time, I have not heard of Data Protection or privacy or Human Rights and did not have any safety procedures or standards to [...]

What is privacy?

April 29, 2020 – 8:01 pm

I was out walking in my local park today. I couldn’t help noticing that there were less people in the park today compared to 2 days ago. Why? Well the weather wasn’t as nice today, dry but not sunny (between 5.35-6.30pm). Also, I forgot to wear my mask today and didn’t notice this until I [...]

A new era is dawning

March 18, 2020 – 4:02 pm

I’m getting a whole swathe of Coronavirus (Covid-19) emails, WhatsApp messages and news from online/TV/Radios & social channels.
