[PASSED] Protecting Personal Data

[Marxist Germany]

“In 1b, I believe the clause would flow better were there to be added the word ‘exist’ after ‘none’.”

"This has been fixed"

[Kenmoria]

“I’m unsure exactly what scenarios you are envisioning that would be prohibited under clause 2b. Why would any business harm its customers, given those will be the ones giving them a source of income?”

"Spyware and ransomware programmes come up to mind"

“I think then it makes more sense for the clause to read ‘any individual’, since it would make more sense for a business to target its competitors’ user base. Also, perhaps restrict the ability of governments, as well as businesses, to use spyware?”

"We will work on that"

Edit:"We have decided against restricting governments from using spyware as it is an issue best left for another proposal"

“That seems fine; there are no glaring issues that I can see.”

[Araraukar]

OOC: Have you made sure that this doesn't run afoul of the network defence (I forget exact name, but fairly sure those words were in the title) resolution, or any resolution in existence that requires people's data to be kept for the various purposes of the resolutions in existence?

OOC:That was literally the first step, I always search for keywords related to an idea I have in passed resolutions thread before starting

[Marxist Germany]

OOC:This has been submitted

[Widowed Land]

Encourages member states to enact stricter laws to protect their citizens' privacy from businesses.

Isn't the whole point of this resolution is to protect privacy? So what is the point of this clause? To remind us the very purpose we are discussing it??

"If one wishes to enact such laws, they'll do it without someone else's encouragement. And we can simply ratify(accept or whatever) your resolution. If your resolution doesn't fit standards you wish to implement, then why should we waste our time on approving it if the problem won't be solved fully and we'd have to enact extra laws?"

"Mr ambassador, you seem to be an "all in or nothing" person, I suggest looking up what compromise means"

[Widowed Land]

"Correct me if I am wrong ambassador, but you literally recited the whole point of resolution in clause 5, with one sentence. I just don't get the reason of its existence"

"It says "encourages member states to enact stricter laws.." I suggest you read it carefully"

OOC:This has been submitted

(OOC: Good luck. Hopefully, this proposal can be successful on this occasion.)

[Aureumterra]

You’re welcome for the last approval, this is a good proposal

"Thanks a lot Mr Ambassador."

OOC: Quorom achieved

Nearly all the measures in the proposal apply solely to businesses, a term that isn't defined in the text. This creates a lot of vagueness about what is and isn't a business and doesn't regulate data processing by government agencies, individuals, NGOs and (presumably) non-profits. That means that any business can create a non-profit subsidiary or appoint an individual to process data for them, thereby completely bypassing the regulations.

"But the precise nature and arrangement of a business is extremely relevant. Specifically for liability and fiduciary duty purposes. Lumping sole proprietorships and common law partnerships in with incorporated entities and state-run corporations seems silly."

(OOC: Google’s automatic definitions alone have seven different meanings, granted that some of them are implausible like a group of ferrets. However, a business has a more specialised set of definitions in legal contexts. It can be used solely to refer to the limited liability arrangements, and the business as an entity distinct from a natural person. Alternatively, it could be used to refer to any of a: sole trader, partnership, PLC, limited liability company, state-run corporation, or a few other things.)

OOC:I can't believe I didn't remember to define what a business is, and over a period of a month, no one else noticed that error. I would love to fix this issue, but I'm going to have to delete the current proposal and post it again and do another WA campaign which might annoy people a lot as this will be the 3rd time.
