Dear
Nilanjana,
Just
read your following article :
-
where you write :
-
The prime
reason for our lackadaisical attitude is that most Indians don’t value privacy.
We are yet
to register the value of personal information — the actual monetary, marketable
value.
My personal
data, for instance, costs roughly $2.
If I take
that as an average, then at least $2 billion worth of
data belonging to 1.3 billion Indians are at stake here.
Which is
why, when this data is taken without consent, it is a financial crime.
Yes,
digitisation is the future. But let’s first plug the social, institutional and
systemic weaknesses in our systems.
Following is my suggestion
for plugging the “ Systemic Weakness “ :
Digital
Dividend from Demographic Data [ 4 D ]
With
regards,
Hemen
