You’ll find a practical, in-depth study of how the law could improve empowerment and protection of the individual, with a full discussion of the challenges involved. The author provides an overview of what data protection protects, and why. He addresses whether data protection should apply to behavioural targeting, and discusses the economics of behavioural targeting.
