the law already has the concept of public and private nuisance which sets guidelines on private rights vs public obligations 


it has worked for ages and can easily apply in cyber

@Alex,

I would say we tread carefully on what we state as public vis-a-vis private. Unfortunately, we do have some overzealous persons who might further blur the distinction between the two.

We have had instances of personal dress code being linked to public safety!

Dear All,

Public safety supersedes private rights because all private rights have public obligations

The age-old question:-

 

At what point does National Security Trump Personal Security? I suspect there's no ready answer to this and we will continue to grapple with this fundamental question for years to come.

Dear Listers,

 

Data collection and how it is used. 

 

An Italian mafia boss who has been on the run for decades has been arrested after he was spotted on Google Maps.

 

After his arrest, he reportedly told police: "How did you find me? I haven't even called my family for 10 years."

 

After reading, also revisit our KeIGF2021 discussion on a similar topic 👇 but on priorities for 2022 when it comes to cyber security.
