Introducing Privacy on the Ground

Every day it seems as though another little part of our lives is reflected in data. From the way we sleep to the way we order food, get a medical diagnoses, get a job -- even how our governments operate.   These interactions, decisions, and automations generate new data, combine it with existing data, share it, analyze it, and compute it. It all means that our earlier understandings of privacy and how to protect it have lost relevance to the rapidly evolving ways we live our lives. Discussions about privacy in relation to government policy, legal compliance, or technical implementation can be complicated, and sometimes pretty inaccessible. But the meaning of privacy and how data use affects us in our real lives is anything but. It is contextual and tangible. In this podcast, you'll hear talks and stories that reflect what privacy means for real people and real lives. Join World Privacy Forum deputy director and Privacy on the Ground host and producer Kate Kaye in this introductory episode to learn more about what you'll hear on the Privacy on the Ground podcast.
