I am speaking at Fresh Thinking with   Tomi Ahonen. Tomi did a blog yesterday Fresh Thinking guest blog   - and this is mine....  “Mobile is to the digital age what the wheel was to the stone age. By its very nature, Mobile puts an interface with the digital world into the hands and pockets of the masses globally. Mobile is THE widest-reaching technology in the world today. And as such has enabled a plethora of situations, context and opportunities for digital engagement and interactions. But do we truly understand what we’re getting ourselves into? Today’s reality is that you leave tiny digital traces of where you have been, when and how often, using what device, and who with, each and every time you interact with technology. So what are you doing to manage your footprints in this digital age ? We are all digital citizens of the world which means we all have rights and responsibilities. There is a great emphasis on the protective   rights   we want – such as new and updated law

I don't mean technical solutions -- we have lots to choose from and we know that they work --but more wide-ranging business and social solutions that will provide a practical means to improve the situation for stakeholders. Now, one set of potential solutions are centred on the mobile phone and more than once in the preceding workshops the idea of banks working with mobile operators has been put forward. Should banks and/or mobile operators provide the identity infrastructure? It's a great topic for a roundtable because it's a live topic: business plans are being formul

http://www.bcs-issg.org.uk/events.html#Privacy_Day BCS ISSG Privacy Day Wednesday 1st December 2010.  To be held at the BCS London Offices, Southampton Street, London. Back by popular demand!  This will be the third “Privacy Day” organised by the ISSG.  It seems that the topic has not gone away.  However, it has evolved.  This year, there will be no discussions on the National ID Card Scheme; some of you may miss this 'hardy annual'. Privacy is still a major issue and this year we will be considering the reaction of society to privacy concerns, some interesting ideas about the relationship between privacy and the internet, the privacy implications of cloud computing and we will also be returning to the EnCoRe project looking at the giving and revocation of consent for use of personal data. A provisional list of speakers and registration information are available on the next event page.
