🔥What are the 9 #GDPR principles and why they matter for you:
1. Lawfulness (Art. 5.1.a): your personal data can only be collected, processed or used according to what the law establishes. For example, Art. 6.1 specifies six situations in which your data can be processed lawfully, consent is one of them.
2. Fairness (Art. 5.1.a): tricky principle, as there is no express indication of its meaning in the GDPR. The @ICOnews says that it means that your data cannot be processed in a way that is unduly detrimental, unexpected or misleading to you. I am working on that in my PhD :)
3. Transparency (Art. 5.1.a): it means that you should be informed about the what, why, how and when your data is being collected and processed. Arts. 12, 13 and 14 of the GDPR, for example, contain mandatory info that should be transmitted to you.
4- Purpose Limitation (Art. 5.1.b): means that your data should be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes.
5- Data Minimization (Art. 5.1.c): means that the personal data that is collected from you should be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed.
6- Accuracy (Art. 5.1.d): the personal data collected from you should be accurate; inaccurate data should be erased or rectified without delay.
7- Storage Limitation (Art. 5.1.e): personal data collected from you should be kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed.
8- Integrity and confidentiality (Art. 5.1.f): personal data collected from your should be processed in a manner that ensures its security, incl. protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage.
9- Accountability (Art. 5.2): the controller (the entity in control of the processing of your personal data) should be responsible for, and be able to demonstrate compliance with the 8 principles I mentioned before.

#Amazon got access to the interior of your home without you even knowing it. They can now share it with whoever they want - incl. the police. #Privacy (thread 1/9)
Amazon acquired #iRobot, the company that makes #Roomba robotic vacuum cleaners, for $1.7B. It can now have richer data about the interior of your home and share with whoever they see fit, also with the police, even if you've never consented to it (2/9)
Amazon is also the owner of:
📹#Ring: so it can have video from your home
📢#Alexa: so it can have audio from your home
🏠 Numerous #smarthome appliances: so that it can have detailed and integrated data from your routine and your needs (3/9)
New to #privacy & #dataprotection? Here are 18 books (in English) you should read to give you a thriving start:
1- Privacy’s Blueprint: The Battle to Control the Design of New Technologies by @hartzog. [To understand how #technology - software, hardware, algorithm & design - is not neutral: it can easily manipulate us and negatively affect our #privacy]
2- Re-Engineering Humanity by @BrettFrischmann & @EvanSelinger. [To understand what happens when we get too fascinated by #bigdata, predictive analytics and #ArtificialInteligence and forget the importance of human autonomy and freedom]
1- Reduced space for #autonomy and #choice; videos are pushed to the user since 1st use. In a web that respects human dignity, people - especially #children and #teenagers - should get used to choose and think about what they want to be exposed to
2- Increased potential of #manipulation and #exposure of younger and more impressionable audiences, as the content will be pushed to them and they will be hooked by age-inappropriate content (and be recommended more content like this)
