The first half of the book delves into the complexities surrounding the GDPR and data, offering critical assessments of the GDPR's five-year enforcement system. These chapters explore various aspects, including the potential of codes of conduct as a co-regulation instrument for the market, an interdisciplinary approach to privacy assessment on synthetic data, the ethical considerations of secondary use of publicly available personal data, and the challenges of automating technologies to ensure GDPR compliance. The second half of the book shifts focus to novel and emerging issues that shape our digital world. It presents in-depth analyses on social and environmental sustainability in smart cities, the reconstruction of states as information platforms, stakeholder identification using video-based Active and Assisted Living (AAL), and a human-centered approach to addressing dark patterns. Through its interdisciplinary approach, this book offers readers a comprehensive exploration of the challenges and opportunities that arise in our ever-evolving digital landscape.
