Describe the Relevance of Your Session to APrIGF
All of us are consumers of digital devices and online services. And none of us can say that we don't hoard sensitive information in our devices and within our accounts. Take our cellphones for example. Most of us use smartphones for our telecommunications and we also hold sensitive information such as financial information, client contacts, personal messages, images/videos, geo-location and in certain cases, biometric information. People who possess data that belong or pertain to others have a greater degree of liability in protecting it. Also, different actors exists in the real world who are preying for access to private and personal information or systems. It is therefore important that we establish truth between our devices and the information that we give. Individual Privacy and Individual attempts to guard privacy are the only sustainable method to be sustainable.
