Public health authorities are looking to use cell phone data to track both the spread of the COVID-19 virus and people’s social distancing practices. These and other technological responses promise important public health benefits. But they can also seriously endanger our privacy. What is the right balance between public health and privacy, and how can we achieve it?
The IoT Collaborative’s Data Privacy Liaison Brian Ray, Professor of Law and Director of the Center for Cybersecurity and Privacy Protection at the Cleveland-Marshall College of Law, will join a panel of other experts discussing how technology is being used to battle COVID-19, the privacy threats that this creates, and how society can best safeguard our privacy – and our health – during the pandemic. The event will be hosted by The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law.
