I still need to let it truely sink in before I’m ready to comment on it – but I am glad that this kind of privacy design thinking is now happening. GDPR offers some challenges and many opportunities. Having a technical layer to complement the privacy processes, we’ll all have to put in place can be very helpful. Let’s hope for some reasonable open data scheme to make the legal aspects more digestable to tools and algorithms.

Let’s just hope, it won’t go the way of the P3P protocol.
