Re: The private sector ? Act with fairness ? Have you heard of Facebook ?
If the private sector was intent on acting with fairness we wouldn't need GDPR.
Yes, because we all know the public sector never loses condifential data, or gets it wrong. FFS.
if it isn't explicitely against the law, it's fair game to try whether it's moral or not
According to whose morals? I place no higher regard for your moral judgements than you do for mine. I trust you see the problem here?
So regulate. Make laws and enforce them
Agreed. Just don't expect the law to deliver what you consider "fair" or "moral". It might be using the next guy in lines definition for those words instead.
That is the only thing that will protect the people and keep things fair.
Define fair. Fair, like moral, is one of those lovely words that makes everyone feel all warm and fuzzy, but ultimately don't actually mean anything.
