This Plenary will address new paradigms for privacy in an increasingly connected world and an era of big data, including an examination of open standards, data protection models and privacy in business and innovation.
Session description
With the advent of the Internet of Things (“IoT”), a new Internet age is emerging which will likely lead to many significant shifts in the Internet’s future role in society. These shifts will have major implications for the future of the Internet, including its governance and future development. There have been dramatic transformations to Internet-enabled devices that network and communicate with each other providing unprecedented opportunities for new services, improved productivity and efficiency, real-time decision-making and innovative user experiences. Where every device and virtually all electronic devices are connected in this new era of IoT, there is an exponential growth in collecting, transmitting, and analyzing data resulting in a massive creation of a vast knowledge set. While IoT and data analysis can lead to greater empowerment of world citizens and economic growth, the same opportunity challenges the concept of privacy.
The increasing rise in data capturing, linking, analyzing and using information raises concerns about individual privacy protection. Personal data is the type that has drawn the most attention from a regulatory and policy point of view. Thus, the challenge is to achieve a balance between individuals’ right to privacy and the emerging opportunities in data innovation. Importantly, there is a paradox where the Internet is used intensively and data is relinquished willingly with opposing fears that privacy is compromised. This paradox hinders the potential unlimited growth of the Internet age by users and industry that may ultimately affect the global economy.
As the Internet progresses to IoT and beyond, there is increasing discussion and debate regarding the role of standards in addressing the privacy (and security) concerns, but this raises the question of whether today’s open standards and networking technologies are effective and advanced enough to support and realize the projected exponential growth of the Internet. Specifically this raises the question of the role of open standards for identity and payment on the Internet in order to facilitate global economic development.
In addition, the issue arises as to whether the relatively modest adoption of IPv6 will hinder unique services that can be offered over the Internet. New services for users will be fueled by data and knowledge whose full potential may depend upon the increased number of IP addresses.
This panel will explore these issues at the intersection of Internet governance and IoT, and discuss how we can balance these growing data opportunities and associated business and societal benefit with the potential risks so that future development can develop unencumbered. The participants will examine how to best frame the global debate and examine these shared issues with a focus on privacy and human rights in the context of emerging services based on the collection, analysis and use of data.
