The US Supreme Court recently released a landmark ruling in Carpenter vs. United States, <\/i>which held that law enforcement authorities must secure a warrant in order to access citizens\u2019 cell-site location data. At the upcoming 40th Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners, we’re hosting a panel discussion to unpack what Carpenter <\/em>means in a globalised world.<\/p>\n

Event blurb:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Court\u2019s judgement in Carpenter <\/em>rested on the understanding that communications metadata can reveal sensitive information about individuals, and that citizens had a reasonable expectation of privacy with respect to that \u00a0metadata.<\/p>\n

This panel discussion will seek to unpack what Carpenter <\/i>says about users\u2019 expectations of privacy in the fully-connected world. It will make this assessment through both a legal and ethical lens, and compare the notion of expectation of privacy in Carpenter <\/i>to other jurisdictions where data protection legislation is currently debated. Finally, the panel will examine the types of metadata implicated by the Carpenter ruling; how sensitive is that data and what legal standards should be applied given that sensitivity.<\/p>\n
