Government and privacy in the digital age

The talk that I gave at Trinity College, Dublin, kindly hosted by Dr Eoin O’Dell as part of his Dublin Legal Workshop series and organised by Digital Rights Ireland, is now up online. You can watch the video of my talk and TJ McIntyre’s – Director of DRI – response, followed by the question and answer session. In my talk, I take a general look at the government’s attitudes to privacy, then discuss ID cards, data retention, the national vehicle tracking database and children’s privacy. Thanks to Ole Tange who took the video.
