Olumide Olugotun

Challenges related to national privacy laws, cultural norms, and cross-border data protection

Skills / Knowledge

  • There is no single set of rules, and no single definition of what data needs to be protected.
  • Regulating at the technology level is generally unsuccessful – but regulating for behavior makes the law highly culturally-dependent, and harder to reconcile with other jurisdictions.
  • The issue of user consent seems simple on the surface but conceals deep technical and even behavioral complexity.
