Coronavirus: England's test and trace programme 'breaks GDPR data law'
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-53466471It involves people being asked to share sensitive personal information.
This can include:
- their name, date of birth and postcode
- who they live with
- places they recently visited
- names and contact details of people they have recently been in close contact with, including sexual partners.
ORG had threatened to go to court to force the government to conduct a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) - a requirement under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for projects that process personal data. A letter from the Department of Health to the group confirmed that a DPIA was a legal requirement and had not been obtained.
ORG's executive director, Jim Killock, said the government had been "reckless" in ignoring this legally-required safety step and had endangered public health.
One is the lack of security regarding the collection of vast amounts of personal data - not surprising considering it's under the control of Dido "Incompetent" Harding ..... shock:
The second is the pursuit of data for data's sake, regardless of protocols - this is patently the initiative of Dominic "Mr Analysis" Cummings, who, seemingly, just can't get enough of the stuff .....

GoodGDPR is a disaster and will cause more deaths because of the data sharing limitations.
Safe harbour was a great solution built on trust - GDPR is isolation and a pathway to censorship of free speech.
