The Next Billion Users Will Not Read Your Consent Notices - ICTworks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The privacy consent model assumes a person who reads the notice, understands it, and chooses. For the hundreds of millions of people coming online for the first time, that person does not exist. For two decades, our fix for weak privacy protection in emerging markets has been the same: better notice. Make the consent screen shorter, clearer, translated into the local language, and the user will make an informed choice. India just wrote that theory into binding law. The Digital Personal Data Prot

FCDO Promises to Halve the Digital Divide. Where Is the Money? - ICTworks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The UK’s Digital Development Strategy 2024 to 2030 is still live on GOV.UK. Four years from its deadline, I cannot find a published pound behind it. The comfortable reading in our sector is that the strategy survived. Nobody withdrew it. We covered its launch as a real step forward, and in my reading it remains the most specific digital development strategy any bilateral donor has put in writing. Partner governments built plans around it: the strategy documents UK technical assistance behind Nig
