Should the government impose stricter regulations on the collection and use of personal data by companies?

No

DONT BE SCARED runnn

The collection and use of government already exceeds the rights of the population. To continue is to lean slowly further in to dictatorialship. It is inevitable, as societies drift between liberty and security. Freedom only permits itself within one regime, safety is overtly permitted within the other. Neither thing should be absolutely allowed.

No - But make it illegal for companies to pester people with spam emails and messages unless it is agreed on. If the box is not ticked to receive information, via email or SMS, they should be held liable if they continue to do so.

No, this is the individual's responsibility, but the government should employ initiatives to prevent data misuse.

Yes, collecting personal data, either by a government or a company, is an authoritarian invasion of privacy.

If you could change one thing about how companies handle your data, what would it be and why?
