A world without privacy – Australia\u2019s role in an international privacy crisis<\/strong><\/p>\n

An AIIA Qld Conversations event with Queensland Privacy Commissioner Philip Green, Angus Murray, and Dr Monique Mann<\/p>\n

With the rise of social media platforms, digital profiles, transactions and subscriptions, an individuals\u2019 data footprint is constantly expanding. Who owns that data? Is privacy a reality? And is Australian regulation tough enough? Both the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights recognise privacy as a fundamental human right. But are these conventions being undermined by a data driven economy and international security concerns. If so, what is the effect of this? Will a loss of privacy equal a loss of autonomy?<\/p>\n

With Australia\u2019s privacy legislation under review and consideration, we seek to discuss the effects this will have on the world\u2019s perceptions on Australia\u2019s relationship with privacy. In light of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) setting the \u2018golden standard\u2019 on privacy, does Australia continue to lag behind? Join us for a conversation in which we discuss these important questions and more.<\/p>\n
