Introduction

• Paul-Olivier Dehaye (Q351) - on Wikidata
• PersonalData.IO (Q182): "data rights individually actionable and collectively useful"
• Q585: "personal data empowerment"
• MyData Geneva (Q50)

Starting point

• Loss of agency in interactions with the platforms
  • individual level: autonomy
  • collective level: sovereignty
• Data is an essential resource for the platform
  • "operating system for the city" - "système d'exploitation"
  • individual agency: "personal data rights"
  • collective level: "making data open"

Personal data rights

Definition

personal data (Q28): "data about an identified or identifiable individual"

• in Federal Act on Data Protection (Q1210),
• and General Data Protection Regulation (Q449))

Rights

• right of access to personal data (Q51): view/get a copy of all our personal data
• right to data portability (Q1209)
  • scope: "data provided by the data subject"
  • "in a commonly-used, machine readable format", at least from the data controller to the data subject
  • "without hindrance, [..] where technically feasible", from one data controller to another directly
• right to information about the logic of the processing (Q1211)

FairTube

• guy has a nice slingshot channel

• gets "demonetized"
• launches Fairtube campaign (Q1212)

• results: "data rights collectively useful"

Uber

London

Geneva

How?

• make a request: see Uber (Q101)
• uses Kepler.gl (open source Uber tool!)

Why?

• "understand my work"
• information (policing of work, through GPS and accelerometers for instance)
• data flow tracing for regulation
• data for labor laws accountability

What is missing?

Frame for addressing the question: model of Uber (simulcast from ConnectedData London)

Many things:

• intermediate GPS traces
• logic of the processing
• log on/log off/available times
• etc
