$10k project idea #2 - GDPR for Canadians

[mgifford]

Write a summary for Canadian organizations about the GDPR. Europe's GDPR will have impacts for any organization that works with European Citizens, yet most Canadian organizations are unaware of the regulations and the risks that they may be under.

This documentation could simply be a guide for businesses or even a checklist which is customized for a segment of society. The successful delivery must be customized for the Canadian context and clearly offering value beyond what is presently available.

Extending or reviewing projects like https://gdprchecklist.io is encouraged. There is no need to re-invent the wheel and projects that build on existing community initiatives will be supported.

All work will be copyright under an open license.

Update on issue from May 2020

#2 — GDPR, privacy is a big an issue as ever. I don’t think that there has been a coherent response for how this sudden digital transformation should deal with either privacy or security. Even basic things like securing our wifi could be useful.
