DESCRIPTION

Preface from the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of CanadaFrom Seattle to Syria, from Lebanon to London, from Mexico City to Montreal, we have seen over the past decade an increasing saturation of surveillance.  Whether from individuals or institutions, in the hands of police or protestors, miniaturization, mobile devices and new media now mean that while we may stand in public space, our presence in duly registered, recorded and increasingly reproducible for whatever reason.  The devices we use and depend upon, the nature of interactive media we consume, the smart technologies we incorporate into our daily lives have now converged.  In doing so, they also overturn many of our comfortableassumptions about privacy.As both a technological phenomena and social reality, the 2011 riot in Vancouver demonstrates that Canada is now facing these issues head on.   With the emergence of new kinds of citizen journalism and mobile camera technologies, we also have new potential breaches of privacy.  With a view to informing the debate around these issues, the OPC commissioned two independent papers by Jesse Hirsh and Kent Glowinski.  The authors lead us to consider some possible legal protection for privacy within social media.   We gave each writer separate sets of related issues to treat, asking them to approach these questions as they best saw fit to general thought and debate.  Should authentication be required for certain websites?  Should tort law be expanded to loss of reputation through social media?  Is there room for regulation of surveillance technology in general?  Should we discuss, as in Europe, enshrining a right to be forgotten?  Should we develop a legal regime for redistribution of personal information by third parties?  In their own way, each examines the underlying and unprecedented privacy issues.  We hope the discussion between them will help us all assess and redefine privacy in this new context.
