    Európai adatvédelmi jogi kézikönyv - 2018. évi kiadás

    Az információs technológiák gyors fejlődésével egyre nagyobb szükség van a személyes adatok erőteljes védelmére, amely jogot az Európai Unió és az Európa Tanács jogi eszközei egyaránt biztosítják. A technológiai fejlesztések kiterjesztik például a felügyelet, a beszélgetések lehallgatása és az adatok tárolása határait, ami új és hatalmas kihívásokat állít e jog biztosítása elé. Ez a kézikönyv azon gyakorló jogászok számára készült, akiknek a jog e fejlődő területe nem a szakterülete.

GDPR in practice – Experiences of data protection authorities

Data protection rules protect privacy and prevent personal information from misuse. When the general data protection regulation (GDPR) came into force in 2018, it strengthened the role of data protection authorities. These supervisory bodies are the key enforcers of the fundamental right of protection of personal data. This report analyses the challenges they face in the GDPR implementation. The findings complement the European Commission's forthcoming evaluation of the GDPR.

Bias in algorithms - Artificial intelligence and discrimination

Artificial intelligence is everywhere and affects everyone – from deciding what content people see on their social media feeds to determining who will receive state benefits. AI technologies are typically based on algorithms that make predictions to support or even fully automate decision-making.

The coronavirus pandemic and fundamental rights: A year in review

This focus looks at COVID-19’s impact on fundamental
rights. It underscores that a human rights-based
approach to tackling the pandemic requires balanced
measures that are based on law, necessary, temporary
and proportional. It also requires addressing the
pandemic’s socio-economic impact, protecting the
vulnerable and fighting racism.

Fundamental rights implications of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has an impact on everyone. Governments take urgent measures to curb its spread to safeguard public health and provide medical care to those who need it. They are acting to defend the human rights of health and of life itself. Inevitably, these measures limit our human and fundamental rights to an extent rarely experienced in peacetime. It is important to ensure that such limitations are consistent with our legal safeguards and that their impact on particular groups is adequately taken account of.

Artificial intelligence & its potential impact

Artificial intelligence (AI) already plays a role in many decisions that affect our daily lives. From deciding what unemployment benefits someone gets to where a burglary is likely to take place. But we need to make sure to fully uphold fundamental rights standards when using AI. Drawing on the ‘Getting the future right – Artificial intelligence and fundamental rights’ report, FRA explores the potential benefits and possible errors that can occur focusing on four core areas – social benefits, predictive policing, health services and targeted advertising.

Hogyan alakítsuk jól a jövőt?. Mesterséges intelligencia és alapvető jogok - Összefoglaló

Az FRA mesterséges intelligenciával és alapvető jogokkal kapcsolatos jelentése konkrét példákkal illusztrálja, hogyan használják vagy próbálják használni az MI-t az EU-ban a vállalkozások és a közigazgatások. A jelentés négy kulcsfontosságú területre összpontosít: szociális ellátás, prediktív rendészet, egészségügyi ellátás és célzott marketing. A jelentés megvitatja az alapvető jogokkal kapcsolatos lehetséges hatásokat, és elemzi, hogyan veszik figyelembe ezeket a jogokat az MI-alkalmazások használatakor vagy fejlesztésekor.
