11:20 Topic: Emerging Trends in the Internet Global Village: Cross Cultural Views of Privacy, Freedom of Expression and Human Rights on Data Collection, Retention and Use
Description: This panel will continue a discussion on whether privacy and data protection are really culture and generation dependent as it is often claimed; is it really the case that some countries/communities are more tolerant to privacy invasions and sharing data than others? And what are the diverse public international views on privacy? Is there any evidence to demonstrate what people around the world really thinks about their rights to privacy, and how do authorities make use of this in their policies and legislative measures?
