The Taiwan Association for Human Rights gave a report on Monday on the transparency
of Taiwan’s Internet. It believes there needs to be a better monitoring system for the giving of personal data.
The Taiwan Association for Human Rights’ newest finding is that from 2015 to 2016, there were nearly 70,000 requests for personal data. Telecom operators responded and provided the data in all of those requests.
The association’s manager Ho Min Hsuan said he believes there needs to be a standard to monitor these requests for personal data. That’s because the telecom operators gave the data 100% of the time. He noted that other companies, such as Microsoft and Google, only gave out info half of the time.
