-"Broader, meaning extending to all surveillance systems, not just "
-"[Facebook](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/facebook). Deeper, meaning "
-"to advance from regulating the use of data to regulating the accumulation of "
-"data. Because surveillance is so pervasive, restoring privacy is necessarily "
-"a big change, and requires powerful measures."

-"The surveillance imposed on us today far exceeds that of the Soviet "
-"Union. For freedom and democracy’s sake, we need to eliminate most of "
-"it. There are so many ways to use data to hurt people that the only safe "
-"database is the one that was never collected. Thus, instead of the EU’s "
-"approach of mainly regulating how personal data may be used (in its [General "
-"Data Protection Regulation](https://www.eugdpr.org/) or GDPR), I propose a "
-"law to stop systems from collecting personal data."

-"The robust way to do that, the way that can’t be set aside at the whim of a "
-"government, is to require systems to be built so as not to collect data "
-"about a person. The basic principle is that a system must be designed not to "
-"collect certain data, if its basic function can be carried out without that "
-"data."

-"Data about who travels where is particularly sensitive, because it is an "
-"ideal basis for repressing any chosen target. We can take the London trains "
-"and buses as a case for study."

-"The Transport for London digital payment card system centrally records the "
-"trips any given Oyster or bank card has paid for. When a passenger feeds the "
-"card digitally, the system associates the card with the passenger’s "
-"identity. This adds up to complete surveillance."

-msgid ""
-"I expect the transport system can justify this practice under the GDPR’s "
-"rules. My proposal, by contrast, would require the system to stop tracking "
-"who goes where. The card’s basic function is to pay for transport. That can "
-"be done without centralising that data, so the transport system would have "
-"to stop doing so. When it accepts digital payments, it should do so through "
-"an anonymous payment system."

-"Frills on the system, such as the feature of letting a passenger review the "

-"These additional services could be offered separately to users who request "

-"Black cabs demonstrate that a system for hiring cars with drivers does not "
-"need to identify passengers. Therefore such systems should not be allowed to "
-"identify passengers; they should be required to accept privacy-respecting "
-"cash from passengers without ever trying to identify them."

-"However, convenient digital payment systems can also protect passengers’ "
-"anonymity and privacy. We have already developed one: [GNU "
-"Taler](https://taler.net/en/). It is designed to be anonymous for the payer, "
-"but payees are always identified. We designed it that way so as not to "
-"facilitate tax dodging. All digital payment systems should be required to "
-"defend anonymity using this or a similar method."

-"What about security? Such systems in areas where the public are admitted "
-"must be designed so they cannot track people. Video cameras should make a "
-"local recording that can be checked for the next few weeks if a crime "
-"occurs, but should not allow remote viewing without physical collection of "
-"the recording. Biometric systems should be designed so they only recognise "
-"people on a court-ordered list of suspects, to respect the privacy of the "
-"rest of us. An unjust state is more dangerous than terrorism, and too much "
-"security encourages an unjust state."

-"The EU’s GDPR regulations are well-meaning, but do not go very far. It will "
-"not deliver much privacy, because its rules are too lax. They permit "

-"The GDPR makes much of requiring users (in some cases) to give consent for "
-"the collection of their data, but that doesn’t do much good. System "
-"designers have become expert at manufacturing consent (to repurpose Noam "

-"[required](https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/sep/29/londoners-wi-fi-security-herod-clause) "
-"users to trade their first-born child got consent from plenty of users. Then "

-"Finally, don’t forget the software in your own computer. If it is the "
