Access to Personal Data On the Internet, My Paper, 5 April 2012

People are increasingly conscious of the importance of safeguarding their personal information online. Online users are making full use of privacy settings on website platforms to ensure that their personal data will be accessible to strangers.

 

Although a Personal Data Protection Bill will be introduced later this year, Bryan Tan, director of Keystone Law Corporation explains that the new law may not provide absolute protection of personal information as it is not easy to enforce the regulations on the Internet. Most users remain unaware that their online personal information is being collected and users usually do not read the terms and conditions provided by the website operators on how their data would be used.

   

Internet Users Taking Justice into their Own Hands, The New Paper, 31 March 2012

Netizens have taken it upon themselves to mete out justice by identifying and posting photographs of alleged wrong-doers on internet forums. In some cases, netizens would even expose the identities of the alleged wrong-doer’s family members.

 

Bryan Tan, director of Keystone Law Corporation, warns that users who engage in such conduct may be liable for defamation. The information posted could be inaccurate or the wrong person could be targeted where there are numerous individuals with the identical name. Moreover, netizens are urged to think twice before publicly shaming the alleged wrong-doers as they could well be innocent.
