Medhora DATA GOVERNANCE IN THE DIGITAL AGE 2 he data revolution has great economic potential. Indeed, some have already hailed data “the new oil.”1 This may be an imperfect analogy, but it does capture the excitement and T high expectations surrounding the data-driven economy. The prospect of extracting lucrative insights from rapidly growing pools of data is galvanizing entrepreneurs and investors in all sectors of industry. There is no doubt that ownership of data and associated analytical algorithms has taken on great importance for the future of many, if not all, commercial enterprises. The success of the most valuable companies in the world (Apple, Google, Facebook and Microsoft) is now underpinned by, above all else, a sophisticated capacity to collect, organize, control and commercialize stores of data and intellectual property (IP). Big data and artificial intelligence are fast becoming the lead drivers of wealth creation, and are increasing productivity, accelerating innovation and disrupting existing business models. Data and IP will soon become an essential part of the business strategy of all companies. John Deere, for example, no longer simply manufactures tractors — the company now also collects data on the farms where those tractors are used. It plans to leverage this data in the coming years to shift the control and profit structure of farming, similar to how Uber upended the taxi industry. Rohinton P.

Two cases—Data Protection Commissioner v. Schrems and United States v. Microsoft Corp.—contravene the principles upon which the internet was founded by removing legal and scalable mechanisms for cross-border data transfers. While these cases do not directly create data localization regimes, they highlight the irreconcilably different approaches to data privacy held by the United States and the European Union and eliminate valid options for transfer such that localization is the only remaining scalable solution.

  • Canadian Privacy Law: the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA)
    International In-house Counsel Journal Vol. 2, No. 7, Spring 2009, 1135–1146 Canadian Privacy Law: The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) DOMINIC JAAR PATRICK E. ZELLER Legal Counsel Vice President & Deputy General Counsel Ledjit Consulting, Inc. Guidance Software, Inc. Canada United States This white paper provides a general overview of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”), and discusses both the privacy requirements imposed by that Act as well as the rules governing the use of electronic documents that it sets out. Overview Introduction to PIPEDA PIPEDA is the federal legislative response to growing concerns over the protection and use of personal information that is accumulated by both public and private organizations in the course of their day-to-day operations.1 The Act sets out rules governing how such information should be handled by the organizations that collect it, and under what circumstances it may be disclosed, either to third parties or to the individual who is the subject of the information. The Act contains two main parts. The first part sets out the rules governing the collection, retention and disclosure of personal information, as well as the remedies available in the event of a suspected breach. In essence, this part of the Act establishes a framework which attempts to balance the privacy rights of individuals with the needs of organizations to collect, use, and disclose personal information in the course of commercial activities. This part of the Act is discussed in sections I and II of this document. The second part of the Act describes the circumstances in which electronic alternatives may be used to fulfill legal obligations, which, under federal laws, require the use of paper documents to record or communicate information or transactions.

  • Gateways, Sieves, and Domes: on the Infrastructural Topology of the Chinese Stack
    International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 2669–2692 1932–8036/20210005 Gateways, Sieves, and Domes: On the Infrastructural Topology of the Chinese Stack GABRIELE DE SETA1 University of Bergen, Norway This article proposes a topological model capable of accounting for the scale and complexity of China’s digital infrastructure. Beginning with the troubled development of a submarine data cable between Los Angeles and Hong Kong, it identifies the limitations of topographical analyses of ICTs and then reviews theorizations of “the stack” as a topological model of planetary computation. To situate the stack model in the Chinese context, I draw on 3 case studies—QR codes, filtering, and cybersovereignty— exemplifying three topological configurations: the gateway, the sieve, and the dome. These configurations expand the conceptual vocabulary of the stack model at different scales, and provide useful tools for the analysis of computational infrastructures in Asia and beyond. Keywords: China, computation, infrastructure, platforms, sovereignty, stack, topology Unraveling a 12,971-km Cable In 2016, Google and Facebook announced a partnership with the Pacific Light Data Communication Co., Ltd. (PLDC), a broadband communications service provider based in Hong Kong. The partnership revolved around a 12,971-km-long submarine cable crossing the Pacific Ocean from Hermosa Beach, a town near Los Angeles, California, to Deep Water Bay, on the south of Hong Kong Island. Once completed, the Pacific Light Cable Network (PLCN) cable would afford a data transmission rate of 144 terabytes per second, connecting the United States to Hong Kong with one of the lowest latencies worldwide (Hecht, 2018). From the PLDC side, this partnership was framed as an important step in Pacific Rim networking, “the initial step in PLCN’s construction of a global network” (Moss, 2016, para.

  • Canadian Cross-Border Data: Your Data May Be Heading South Even When You Are Not
    Canada Institute | May 2019 Canadian Cross-Border Data: Your Data May Be Heading South Even When You Are Not By Jacqueline Orr Canadian data: what goes where? Canada is fast becoming a technology powerhouse with cities across the country such as Waterloo, Calgary, Toronto, Montreal, and Edmonton transforming into tech hubs. They promise that their research centers and internet companies are going to light the way for Canada’s innovation economy. But the state of Canada’s internet is increasingly becoming an oxymoron. While Canada’s internet economy might be self-sustaining, the Canadian internet itself is not. Issues of territoriality are fluid and unbound. This is because Canada’s network infrastructure relies on American networks to transfer and store data. But, when Canadian data enters the United States, it becomes foreign data and is not protected by the same privacy rights as those accorded to U.S. domestic data and its owners. CIRA, the Canadian Internet Registration Authority, states that three-quarters of the Canadian population spends three to four hours a day online.1 CIRA also reports 64 percent of Canadians are concerned about the security of their personal information when it is routed through the United States. Are these concerns justified? This Canada Institute briefing explores key questions about cross-border data travel to better understand the risks and opportunities facing Canadians in an increasingly inter-connected world. There is a glossary at the end of the document. Is it legal for the U.S. government to collect data from Canadians? Yes. U.S. government agencies may collect any foreign data that crosses into U.S.

  • Network Sovereignty: Understanding the Implications of Tribal Broadband Networks
    Network Sovereignty: Understanding the Implications of Tribal Broadband Networks Marisa Elena Duarte A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Cheryl A. Metoyer Raya Fidel Maria Elena Garcia David Levy Adam Moore Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Information School i © Copyright 2013 Marisa Elena Duarte ii Abstract For tribal leaders, bringing reliable, affordable broadband Internet service to Indian Country is a matter of self-determination. At this point in history, tribal leaders enforce the sovereign rights of tribes by communicating through information and communication technologies (ICTs) mobilized to work across powerful institutions. Tribal leaders who command the processes of broadband Internet deployment within their communities increase their capacity to support the health of tribal lands, waters, and peoples. Whereas freedom of expression and the exercise of all other human rights through the Internet is a human right, and the infrastructure for connecting to the Internet is essential for citizens to self-govern, so does the U.S. federal government, under obligation of the trust relationship they share with federally-recognized tribes, have a responsibility to support the deployment of broadband Internet infrastructure—including networks, devices, spectrum, technical expertise, and policies—throughout Indian Country. This qualitative inquiry reveals how tribal leaders who deploy broadband Internet to their communities must contend with national telecommunications policy, neighboring deployment strategies, regulatory matters, and the development of steady revenue streams to advance robust broadband network design and services. As each of these intersects with the sovereign rights of tribes, it is possible to conceptualize sociotechnical dimensions to future exercises of tribal sovereignty.
