Privacy – It takes two to tango
Today is the European day for privacy, apparently. The EU or EC has done a great job in Preventing this day from becoming common knowledge in Europe, perhaps for privacy reasons. Most people aware of privacy concerns are rather eager to support extensive privacy legislation, makes sense. However, most people aware and not aware of privacy concerns dump lots of private information theirselves without consideration easily, too easily. Have you ever claimed back your copy of your driver license, handed over when test driving or renting a car? Have you ever asked if shops are allowed to store your ID and if so, is it stored safe and properly? Got a schredder at home? Do you actually use it? I Guess not. So, you should make sure to get your act together as well. About all other scenario’s, don’t worry too much about your privacy, no country has the capacity to process your complaint anyway.
