GEA RESPONSE TO NTC DISCUSSION PAPER: GOVERNMENT ACCESS TO VEHICLE-GENERATED DATA - MAY 2020
Gas Energy Australia (GEA) appreciates the opportunity to respond to the National Transport Commission (NTC) Government Access to Vehicle Generated Data discussion paper released in May 2020.
In principle, GEA supports governments using vehicle generated data for developing good policy. But we have concerns about the embryonic nature of the paper's discussion and fear that without more detail, there is a danger of more data being harvested than consented and data being used for purposes other than what was intended, akin to the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data breach.
