How can data be used for the benefit of society without violating privacy? A paper by Data-Pop Alliance and Vodafone Institute describes four requirements.
How data are shared and used will determine, to a large extent, the future of democracy and human progress.

This paper is part of the “Digitising Europe” initiative and part of a series of discussion papers that are focussed on challenges of European digital policy.
