2015-11-30 Meeting Notes USTs

Date

Nov 30, 2015

We discussed projects that are quickly trying to implement a non-contractual set of terms where we might help.
- Duration may not be on the table for initial round at those projects
- #safeads may be signal that an ad is not based on tracking to separate things based upon tracking
Law and privacy
- EU changes in Data Protection expected in next month
- FIPs based practices – may not scale in modern world but are dominant paradigm
  - where are you now?
  - where do you want to be?
  - what are ways to get there?
  - what do we do now?
- Privacy Act 1974 originally just covered govt data collection (taxes and census - slow) but now it's lots of data and very fast
- Bridge FIPs and Privacy Act.. knit together with contracts
- Arbitrage needs to support the user
- Don't want to constrain ourselves to FIPs duties
- Some history on FIPs: http://bobgellman.com/rg-docs/rg-FIPShistory.pdf by Bob Gellman
How do people provide their own notice?
- Can we portray this as more than privacy? Duties can help where terms give a complementary set of rights for personal data control.
- Contracts become epoxy
ME-vertising - intentcasting
- for advertisers where we do wish to be known, we still need terms for that
- advertising is tracking verses not-tracking based
  - brand? verses tracking ads
Need intermediary to control the exchange of data, the way banks do this for exchange of money
