Has anyone any doubt that the likes of Facebook
and Twitter have been taking our Policy Makers / Government Officers , for a
ride ?
Not after reading today's news papers carrying
a " tale of shame " where Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey , simply refused
to attend a meeting called by Shri Anurag Thakur ( Chairman - Parliamentary
Committee on Information Technology ) !
It is time to stop mollycoddling these guys who
think they are above the laws of India
It is time to stop the " Selling "
approach
It is time for " Telling " approach
Telling : Comply or Quit !
Let us resolve : OPEC of DATA oil must be
dismantled !
==================================================================================
SARAL
What does that stand for ?
Single
Authentic Registration ( for ) Anywhere Login
Is this original concept ?
Not
really . Even today, we give our personal data to web sites like Google /
Facebook and then use services of hundreds of other web sites by just selecting
: “ Log me in with Google or Facebook “ . Same principle
Advantage ?
· No
filling up / editing, your personal data, again and again, on hundreds of web
sites. Just ONE site !
· Preventing
web sites to demand – and use – your personal data which they don’t need
· Enabling
users to make money by “selling “their personal data
·
How much money can user ( possibly
) make by selling personal data ?
· $
4 / month , from each website ( x 100 = $ 400 pm = Rs 30,000 per month )
Will all web sites agree to
pay such amounts ?
· Initially
, some will agree . Gradually , more and more will agree
· Then
there will be government web sites which will not pay any cash to the users but
may give “rebate / discount “ from amounts a citizen owes them for their
services
How will this work ?
· At
birth of a child , parents will submit child’s data ( Name / Birthdate /
Address etc ) on,
· Up
to the age of 12 , parents will submit / edit, all data about the child
· From
12 to 18 , data submission / editing will be done jointly with the child
· From
18 onwards, child ( who has turned adult ) will maintain data
What DATA will be submitted
on IndiaDataCustodian ?
· Data
will be submitted at 10 DATA LEVELS –
described in detail at :
Only
Answer : a Statutory Warning [ 10
Nov 2018 ]
How will other web sites
“Access “ these data of a user ?
· All
web sites / mobile apps will enable a user to login by clicking ,
“ Log me in with www.IndiaDataCustodian.gov.in “
· No
user will need to submit any personal data directly on ANY web site / mobile
app
· Each
user would need to select / specify ( on IndiaDataCustodian
), which web site ( or type of web site ) can be granted “ access “
to which DATA LEVEL , for free
· User
will also select / specify which DATA LEVEL can be “ sold “ to what kind of web
sites
· The
“sale Price “ for each DATA LEVEL will be fixed by IndiaDataCustodian
· The
“ for sale “ DATA will NOT reveal the
identity of any user. It will be always anonymized / aggregated for a few
hundred / few thousands users, based on “demographic profile “ configured by
the buyer web site online ( on IndiaDataCustodian ) and the purchase price paid
online ( DBT to each User’s Bank account )
What about the web sites
which do not agree to this arrangement ?
· They
will be STOPPED from operating in India ! It will be “ Quit
India “ from Google downwards and will include Indian web sites as well
· Of
course they may come on board at any time – in which case IndiaDataCustodian will inform all the Indian Citizens
who have registered with IndiaDataCustodian
· IndiaDataCustodian will also publish on its web site ,
the “ Sale Prices “ for each DATA LEVEL
Can you give examples of some
such web sites who must sign agreement with IndiaDataCustodian ?

By no means , this is a comprehensive list
. It is merely representative
What about security of user
data from hackers ?
Consider the following scenario :
# HCP visits Twitter to post a tweet
# HCP clicks on Twitter : “ Log me in with www.IndiaDataCustodian.gov.in
“
# HCP is taken to IndiaDataCustodian
where he logs in / authorizes it to share his LEVEL 1 data with Twitter
# HCP posts 5 Tweet / 2 re-tweets
#
Twitter passes on this entire “ Session Log “ of HCP to IndiaDataCustodian , which stores this in “ HCP’s
Online
Life-time History “ page – which can be “ accessed “ by various Intelligence
Agencies for surveillance,
strictly in accordance with the procedure outlined at :
Who
Watches the Watchmen ? [ 12
Jan 2019 ]
Why is this procedure
essential ?
· For
past one year, Facebook / Twitter are taking for a ride , US Congress and UK
Parliament , with totally evasive answers in respect of data leaks / data sale
of users without their “ informed consent “
· And
placing all kinds of “ legal road-blocks “ to EU’s GDPR investigations
· But
bending backwards to accommodate most stringent operational stipulations of
China
· In
response to a summons from India’s Parliamentary Committee on Information
Technology , Twitter CEO , Jack
Dorsey refused to turn up for the meeting !
· Vijaya Gadde [
vijaya@twitter.com
] Twitter’s global lead for legal, policy, trust and safety had the
impudence to state,
“ No one who engages publicly for
Twitter India makes enforcement decisions with respect to our rules
for content or accounts in India “
What should Anurag
Thakur ( Chairman – Parliamentary Committee ) tell Vijaya Gadde ?
· Thanks
for enlightening the Committee on your internal rules . Your CEO need not come
to India. As soon as we have firmed up OUR RULES , he will be informed to
comply or quit !
·
What concerns will SARAL
address ?
SARAL will satisfy the
following concerns :
# It will facilitate early introduction of E-Commerce
Policy , which is hanging fire due to a potential conflict
with the proposed Data Protection Bill in
respect of nature of sensitive data that must be stored locally
# It will store on the local server of IndiaDataCustodian
, entire “ life history “ of WHO visited WHICH web
Site , WHEN and for HOW
LONG , and did WHAT
# It will satisfy the National
Encryption Policy
# It will ensure smooth functioning of the Centralized E-Commerce Regulator / Data
Protection Regulator
# It will enable TWO FACTOR
AUTHENTICATION
# It will enable India’s Intelligence Agencies to carry out surveillance in most transparent manner
# It will enable the Central and the State Governments to formulate policies / schemes in respect of
subsidies /
unemployment allowances / other DBT schemes
# It will enable users ( registered on IndiaDataCustodian
) to “ monetize “ their personal / private
data by
authorizing IndiaDataCustodian to sell the same
( could be as high as Rs 30,000 per month per user )
# It will enable Indian and Foreign Corporate to bypass the Social Media
web sites and , instead use the
Platform
of IndiaDataCustodian , to target their “ Marketing Campaign “ to millions of Indians. This
will enable
IndiaDataCustodian to earn billions of dollars ,
which it can share with its registered users
====================================================
Dear Shri Ravi Shankar Prasadji ,
On
this subject , I have sent to you , several suggestions in the past
My
this note , more or less , summarizes those
Having
waited so long , I urge you to circulate this note to all the concerned
Ministries and seek their views before announcing the E Commerce Policy or
introducing the Data Protection Bill in Lok Sabha
If
implemented , this proposal will set the benchmark for rest of the world
