Can Groups Exercise Rights Over Data?
Data is no longer collected only about one individual or even a small group of individuals but increasingly about large, often undefined groups. Data is then transformed through multiple layers of algorithmic processing into patterns and group profiles that are applied on a macro-scale. While the individual may not be the focal point of algorithmic processing and its derivative value, fundamental rights, including the right to privacy remain vested in individuals as a fundamental tenet of any democracy. We will engage with the relationship between groups and the rights they hold, the framework within which it can exert rights over data, and the relationship between groups and its individuals as well as external actors. We will also shed light on algorithmically determined groups where individuals may not even be aware of their membership, and explore how groups could still serve as a unit of harm mitigation.
