On May 9th every year Guernsey celebrates the Liberation of the island from the German occupying forces during the Second World War. In this special edition of the Data Protection Teabreak, Data Protection Commissioner Emma Martins and Kirsty Bougourd discuss how the atrocities committed during the Second World War led to the development of data protection laws.
They talk about when the ideas of privacy were first developed and how the gathering and processing of personal data led to the murder of millions of people.
Listen to Emma explain how Europe's strict laws were created in order to try to prevent such a tragic misuse of personal data happening again.
