I recall in the past seeing some material for software which enabled the
individuals privacy preferences to be identified and hence respected by
organisations. A sort of automated Principle One statement software, which
placed the responsibility for P1/2 compliance squarely upon any
organisation/person accessing/using the freely available material, and
potentially removed protections from the individual if they did not identify
details. Sadly, I cannot find it again. I have looked on Eric Howe's
privacy software pages at http://www.staff.uiuc.edu/~ehowes/main.htm and
some other sites. Not being able to remember the name of it does not help
when searching the web.
Whilst recognising the significant dysfunction of making the individuals
privacy preferences widely known, I have maintained some interest in that
type of software development; In the paradoxical context of the
acceptability to individuals of loosing their privacy by finely detailing
their privacy preferences in a public way. Although I suppose that material
could perhaps be used as an e-mail marketing list in reverse!
Is any member of the group aware of the name of a product of that type? I
believe Microsoft also looked at the possibility of integrating something
similar within e-mail recently.
Thank you in advance
