Internet privacy rights -- Privacy, autonomy and the Internet -- The symbiotic Web -- Law, privacy and the Internet : the landscape -- Navigating the Internet -- Behavioural tracking -- Data vulnerability and the right to delete -- A rights-based approach -- Privacy and identity -- A privacy-friendly future?
Summary: "Internet Privacy Rights analyses the current threats to our online autonomy and privacy and proposes a new model for the gathering, retention and use of personal data. Key to the model is the development of specific privacy rights: a right to roam the Internet with privacy, a right to monitor the monitors, a right to delete personal data and a right to create, assert and protect an online identity. These rights could help in the formulation of more effective and appropriate legislation, and shape more privacy-friendly business models. The conclusion examines how the Internet might look with these rights in place and whether such an Internet could be sustainable from both a governmental and a business perspective"--
