Hence proper privacy protection regulations and enforcement. No more black box devices that upload data to their servers that can’t be deciphered by the users. Get caught? A crippling fine on first offense. Jail sentences and ban from the market for further offenses.
If someone gets caught planting a listening or a tracking device against someone else they can go to jail for it. Why should we make an exception for corporate leaders?
All the more reason to make it so companies in your country can’t collect your data and sell it to those foreign countries so cheaply and easily right?
Let’s say you are able to prove that a foreign entity was not in compliance with your personal data. And you were able to sue for damages. How long would you be ready to wait? How long do you think it would take for that foreign entity to earn back their lost profits? How would your government force compliance if they refused?
Sue for damages? Hell no. The national regulator conducts random checks, like food safety. Found a car that sends data across the border? Inform the manufacturer and give them a short window to remediate, following which you stop all imports, and or prohibit sales under the regulation. Similar to how we can prohibit sales of all sorts of goods on the basis of safety.
Other countries won’t care about your county’s privacy regulations.
The only way to regulate your own privacy is to make sure you are not being surveilled in the first place.

I think a law banning the collection of private data in things like cars would do more than regulating the surveillance of people for profit.
Also, the right to repair or modify equipment one owns would make it easier to disable these dystopian practices.
We can (and should) verify compliance with call-home restrictions.

You’re right it’s better to keep our head down and do nothing
/s obviously
Not what I’m saying at all.
Sir, this is
a Wendy’sA&WCanada. Litigationarrhea not necessary.That’s fair. My point is that once your data is no longer yours, regulation won’t save it.
