About Data Rights
We are a new non-profit organization that defends, enforces, and advances data rights.
We believe that users should not have to trade their data and autonomy in exchange for big tech’s cybersecurity. We refuse data silos as the Internet’s business model. We challenge Governments where their actions undermine cybersecurity, the rule of law, and fundamental rights.
We believe in a world where users, communities and organisations have the rights to control their data, free from data silos and mass surveillance.
We founded Data Rights in 2020 to make this vision come true.
Data Rights is a non-governmental organization with a mission to empower users, organisations and communities, to control their data.
Your Data Rights
Issues
Data Silos
Because of network effects, lock-in and anti-competitive practices, a few monopolies have built up massive data silos. We help enforce rights to portability and break data silos. More info soon
Mass Surveillance
Mass surveillance undermines trust in tech and overall trust in society. We challenge laws that do not respect fundamental rights and freedoms. More info soon
Cybersecurity
Rights and freedoms mean nothing in the digital world without cybersecurity. We challenge bad cybersecurity policies and help foster tech that helps keep you secure. More info soon
About Us
We gather lawyers who defend and enforce fundamental rights in court, designers of tech that enables users to control their data, programmers and hackers who conceive protocols, standards, and security solutions, policy experts of the Internet and digital issues… activists and people who care about the impact of data, and want to fight for a vibrant Internet, free from unfair State or business surveillance.
