(Business Wire) Today, The Ethical Tech Project, a multidisciplinary coalition that builds standards for an ethical internet with privacy at its core, announced the launch of its Privacy Advisory Board.
In response to growing concerns about the ways in which Big Tech manages user data and privacy, the Board will outline the privacy steps every user and consumer should expect as part of their sovereign data dignity. The Board’s goal is to develop a set of standards that are responsive to existing rules and regulations and offer engineers the specific tools, patterns, and frameworks for privacy-by-design.
