Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

DEAR SHRI P P CHAUDHURYJI / THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO RE-IMAGINE INTERNET V.2

 Thank  You, Kris Gopalkrishnanji

 

kris.gopalakrishnan@outlook.com

 

 

What for ?

 

For “ in principle “ acceptance of my suggestion for creation of IndiaDataCustodian authority

 

 

Can you elaborate ?

 

Here is that news report :

Kris Panel on Data calls for National NPD ( Non Personal Data ) Authority /  ET  /  11 Nov 2021

 

 

Extract :

 

Ø The Kris Gopalkrishnan-led committee, tasked with defining the REGULATORY STRUCTURE for use of non-personal data ( NPD ) in the country, has recommended the establishment of NATIONAL NPD AUTHORITY in the draft bill … Non-personal Data is information that is stripped of Personally Identifiable Material

 

Ø The ..panel.. also lays out provisions under which companies that control high amounts of data will be classified as “ DATA BUSINESSES “ , as well as what will constitute as a “ HIGH VALUE DATA SET 

 

 

Ø The draft report envisages the setting up of several DATA TRUSTS by the government, which can ask for HIGH VALUE DATA-SETS – that are ANONYMOUS and will NOT IDENTIFY INDIVIDUALS – from companies like Google and Amazon

 

Ø These DATA-SETS can be sought by the Government or by OTHER COMPANIES

 

 

Ø The PRICE at which the DATA-SETS will be shared will be left to the working of MARKET FORCES

 

Ø The panel has “ rounded off the edges and made the report more palatable and done some fine tuning on aspects such as DATA SHARING , to make things easier and clearer for the industry “

 

 

Ø While the core principles of the original report remain intact, some of the ambiguities have been removed

 

Ø The Committee has taken cognizance of the people’s doubts and provided more clarity

 

 

Ø This makes India one of the first countries to have a DRAFT LEGISLATION to regulate NPD even as other nations with large amounts of data are still weighing in on the contours of a legislation

 

 

MY  TAKE :

 

Ø Kris Panel has accepted that,

      #  Personal Data can be treated / accepted as NON PERSONAL DATA, if it gets ”  Anonymized and

          Aggregated “

 

      #  Such NPD has a MARKET PRICE and can be SOLD / PURCHASED by companies and government

 

      #  Govt to set up several DATA TRUSTS , which can BUY (  and SELL ? ) – data sets

 

 

 

Ø What disappoints me is that in the draft report there is no provision for 

#  Treating every citizen to be the sole / absolute OWNER of his PERSONAL DATA , even if it is part

    of an Anonymized / Aggregated DATA SET

 

#  Every time anyone ( Company /  Individual / Govt ) buys a NPD DATA SET from anyone , the

     citizen will get a share of the PURCHASE PRICEif that DATA SET includes his own profile

 

 

Dear Shri P P Chaudhuryji

( Chairman, Joint Parliamentary Committee on Data Protection ),

 

 

Kris Panel has laid out the broad frame-work

But a LAW needs to spell out the MECHANISM / the digital PLATFORM, which will firmly REGULATE / MONITOR / ENFORCE, the citizen’s right to Personal Data Ownership and monetizing that data

 

To enable citizen to exercise these fundamental “ Data Ownership Rights, I urge your Committee to consider implementation of my following suggestion :

 

SARAL ( Single  Authentic  Registration for Anywhere  Login )…[ 10 Feb 2019 ]

 

 

Extract :

 

What does that stand for ?

 

Single Authentic  Registration(for) Anywhere  Login

 

 

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 incidences / month = $ 400 pm = Rs 30,000 per month )

 

 

What DATA will be submitted on   www.IndiaDataCustodian.gov.in    ?

 

       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 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.gov.in ), 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.gov.in

 

      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.gov.in ) and the purchase price paid online ( DBT to each User’s Bank account )

 Dear Shri P P Chaudharyji,

 

 

Your Committee meeting yesterday could not approve the DRAFT since various Committee Members raised following questions ( source :  Consensus eludes panel on Data Bill  /  Business Line   / 13 Nov 2021 ) :

 

Ø  We had unanimously recommended that these provisions are not enough and it should be made stronger. But the new draft does not have those provisions to our surprise

 

Ø We asked the Chairman whose interest is the panel supposed to protect ? Of fiduciaries or citizens ?

 

 

Ø It seemed to us that the Centre has a specific agenda to protect the data fiduciaries. We told him that if we continue like this, the committee will become a laughing stock

 

Ø We should not delay it further. But it should not be a half baked law which will not strengthen the privacy of citizens. We will submit the report in the first week of winter session

 

 

Ø There will be dissent notes to the report and to the Bill. Holistic views on the Bills will be given

Ø Cases of breach of privacy are dealt by States. One Central authority sitting in Delhi cannot deal with such issues. The Chairman, however, has a different view. We will give dissent notes

 

 

 

       I urge you to incorporate my suggestion in your amended draft and re-circulate for consideration / discussion on 22 Nov meeting. Beyond doubt, it will prove to the Members that the interests of the Citizen comes first

 

      When the Bill gets introduced in Lok Sabha, it will find whole-hearted support from Opposition Parties

 

      And countries which are on look out for an alternative which is far better than GDPR , will copy your draft !

 

 

  

      With Regards,

 

     Hemen Parekh  /  hcp@RecruitGuru.com  /  13 Nov 2021
