Comments on: New legal framework – towards My Data? http://mydata2016.org/2016/08/17/new-legal-framework-towards-my-data/ Tue, 23 Aug 2016 07:34:25 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.16 By: Geoff Revill http://mydata2016.org/2016/08/17/new-legal-framework-towards-my-data/#comment-96 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 07:34:25 +0000 http://mydata2016.org/?p=5335#comment-96 Simple article with seemingly a call for insurmountable solutions. The re-use of portable personal data, especially the ever valuable meta-data and derived data from analytics (do we have rights for portability of that? unclear in the GDPR), creates a new technical requirement – INTEROPERABILITY. This is a scary term for online businesses that be default seek to build walled gardens around “their” data assets. Allowing that data over the wall because you have to under the law is one thing, building an open doorway with no lock into the wall so the data can freely leave (or enter), requires a new business model and a fundamental cultural mindset change in online commercial business models.
However at the technical level, real interoperability through semantical defined data that delivers inherent interoperability is viable TODAY! I am speaking at the event on trust in digital engagement – but if anyone wants to chat about Interoperability let me know, its another area of passionate commitment.
